Art

The effort and sweat that any man gives
From talent, though meek, pours forth fruit
If graced by you, Lord, beyond us it lives
Strengthens our neighbors, heartens our root

Fuzzy and Warm

Auto-Bright

Deliberate delirium decimates with dreariness
Fearing for the future, fainting from frankincense
Judging and jailing jaywalkers and jokers
Christ calls you out on capering and cowardice


God bless,
>P<
Joshua Fahey

I am Weak, Thou art Strong

Within the pain of the innocent
The innocent, but silent
Suffering without a cry or plea
Sinners hide within, within mercy
May I be hidden too


God bless,

Crowning of Thorns

Mystery in Prayer

Whispers of a quiet place
A temple space and awful sights
In clear lights, with true bearing
To profound caring in this sacred love


God bless,

Fig Leaves

Father

Faith and trust, reliance of need
Dependence of being, sower of seed
Sender of rain, of children, of hope
At the bottom of the pit, giver of rope
Peacekeeper, joy maker, God above
Sends His Son, with love, on the wings of a dove


God bless,

Best Buds

Don't Bury it, Bank on it

I have hope, because I have hope
I have faith, even in doubt
I have love, because I am loved
Because of grace, I sing and shout


God bless,

Joshua Fahey

Acedic Wrath

Under useless wills
Great bodies and minds rust
Sloth kills
Much more than it must
Let my will persevere
In prayer, that you and I be near


God bless,

Changing Seasons

Winter is lovely this time of year
When peaking, sneaking, spring is near
The sky dances brighter and the bird
Sings higher and the Poet speaks His Word

God bless,

Needs to be More in Tents

Love Is

Love is patient, willing to act
Enduring through a fool's lack of tact
Love is patient and ever near
That in every prayer He may hear
Love is kind, gentle and humble
Always steady when we tumble
Love is kind and ever there
That He may answer every prayer


God bless,

Got the Message Already!

Likely known miles away
Lightning and rain on a thundery day


God bless,

Joshua Fahey

Worth

Frontier of freedom, further than sight or flight
Stretched. Sinking. Unscalable. Rousing the soul
Ripping through the ruins, raising hopes rippling
Hallowing a hard journey, a human's festive history


God bless,
>P<
Joshua Fahey

Agony in the garden

God bless,

Redemption

Splotches of wisdom mixed in memories
Fractured by a willfulness, malice, rebellion
Unified, harmonized in angelic lullabies
Through a son's sacrifice in an immaculate heart


God bless,
>P<
Joshua Fahey

Dark Invitation

Joshua Fahey

Wandering

My eyes know not thy face
My tongue knows not thy truth
But as I wander this deserted place
Repentance fills me up with ruth
May my eyes now only seek thy face
And my tongue only preach thy truth


God bless,
>P<
Joshua Fahey

Suit Up

God bless,
>P<
Joshua Fahey

Soaked

Let me soak so deep in your grace
That not even the heat of hell could dispel your face
That every step of joy or pain
Would be within your blessed rain


God bless,
>P<
Joshua Fahey

Path of Swords and Tears

A catholic crossed by ash
A road crossed by palms
Glory in life and death
May all glory be to God


God bless,

Knocked

Colors

Crystal goblets holding marbles
Each globe dyed in brilliant hues
And in each core there is a sparkle
A mystery with many clues
A gem with many facets
Light holds shining glee
In humility like picnic baskets
My love presents to thee


God bless,
>P<
Joshua Fahey

Eye-Beam

I'm not sorry. Not one iota.

Life is Alive

Narrow minded purpose guides
While a soul in winter hides
But even in the fervent strides
Hope subsides

When under the sun's golden beam
Energy flows out in a stream
And nothing cannot be redeemed
Joyful dream

The words you placed into my soul
The ones repeated and keep me whole
Even withstanding the world's toll
A peaceful stroll

As I meet those who have trod
And join in hand, both sane and odd
My voice in faith gives applaud
I love God


God bless,
