Little Candle

A little string in a little wax
Can endure what darkness lacks
With a simple little feat
Of a little light and a little heat



God bless,

Dishonesty

When that tantalizing lie
Whispers out its tender cry
Beware letting out of dark and damp
Don't let the djinn out of the lamp

Glory

All light, all signs
All Your designs
Though we've messed up, true
All glory is for You

Water

Seen as good, His water, His life
Formed by the Word whose vey death
It binds to those seeking His life
Within us flows by the Holy Breath
And enlivens us by His life



God bless,

Melody

Met in tired lullabies
That drift along the railroad ties
On those gentle tracks
And clickety clickety clacks
Two souls that should never meet
Two harmonies incomplete
Seeking out a melody
That would set them free
But once entwined in Fate's strings
No paupers, priests, or kings
Can unbind what Heaven has bound
Can unfind what God has found
But to those who pray sincere
His melody rings to those who hear



God bless,
>P<

Miner

Miner down the underground
Down the shafts, down the axe
Wears a helmet so he won't be crowned
By falling rocks or bats

Miner down the underground
Looking for a sparkle
Amid the black of the abyss
There's a light that'll boggle


God bless,

Links

Links, of green or rust
Of green rust too
That break in a gust
Of the clearly blue


God bless,

Who Can Deny?

Visible to any eye
Open and awake
Yet many deny
With everything at stake
The beauty of the rainbow
In the clarity of daylight




God bless,

Diligence

Dragon's drink of the darkness in
The deadly shadow dwelling within
The human heart, hollow or whole
The serpents soar in the septic soul

But the light, the spark, I seek and need
The blade that strikes that beast of greed
Comes from the peace of a humble deed
And flowers from the joy of a simple creed

Love God, first and most
Then love His works
And toast to the Ghost



God bless,

Adventure is a Strange Discomfort

Veiled, but open to
Any who'd sail the darkest blue
Without a clue
As to who
Might be sailing out with you

Warred, but peaceable
Broken blades that've grown dull
Dead is null
Deep they lull
With chivalry far more durable



God bless,
>P<

Hope in the Night

The lively night and dampened air
Leaves me to both dance and stare
At the stars, hark to their song
And dance, and dance all night long


God bless,

Shallow Pride

Foolish fellow in a shallow hole
Won't get out, won't pay the toll
For foolishness
Stuck in an abyss

Decide

A choice is freedom against
The tyranny of fate
Consequences are prices spent
At that tollgate
Laughter, tears, anger, and joy
Bought back for us by a baby boy
His mother’s choice that led her to see
His death and rising to make us free


God bless,
>P<

Just words I got out of an old book

Lemons, limes, salt, and pepper
(The green ones that peal)
A radial, linear, min/max stepper
For computers who squeal
An apocalyptic, psychic, zombie prepper
Purple splotched in teal


God bless,

Tell me a Story

I tremble alone and silence cannot quell
Please let me rest with you for a spell
And hear again the song and bell
Of how amongst us you did dwell
To keep some from falling to hell


God bless,

Noisy Birds

Rowdy robins rouse the room
Taking turns to trounce the tomb
Mice mimic muffled mikes
Leading lillies to little likes

Garden

Listening to the words
Spoken by the master
Acting out the promise
Walking through disaster
Out into the garden
Out beneath the trees
Listening to the music
In the gentle breeze

That Sucks

Party

A clumsy monkey dances in the rain
A silly doggie laughs aloud in pain
A clever parrot sings with the refrain
All glory be to God


God bless,

Sight

Orbs taking light and forming sound
Lightning striking, meanings abound
Forming from heaven sent to the ground
Helping to escape going round and round


God bless,
