Summer haiku

Scent of grass's blood
Veined petals lift grounded brown
As we walk with God




God bless,

Friend and Brother

What a dreary day, my friend
So many lives are lost to wander
And in their thoughts appear to ponder
Nothing in the end

      It is a glorious day, dear brother
      Many lives are birthed, are found
      Growing up through humble ground
      Watered by another

I object my dearest friend
To your optimistic blunder
The whole world is being blown asunder
We are nothing in the end

      It is not optimism, brother
      To smell love in a rose's bloom
      To see hope in an empty tomb
      Prepared for another

You are right, sweet foolish friend
Not optimism but sheer madness
Can see joy in grief and sadness
Hope in dismal end

      Am I insane, my brother
      To see Truth with Iris's shades
      As well as non-chromatic blades?
      To accept salvation from another?






God bless,

Prayer of the bewildered

As surely as I've made my mind
The grass is purple, if it exists
In oblique corridors I find
Many such nonsensical lists
So I cry, hear me God

The purpose of my Wonderland
Is to breathe while dying slow
To believe time reverses sand
My Wonderland's a prison floe
So I cry, hear me God

Kamikaze birds move through
Arachne's woven wonders clear
The poison lies, forgets the true
Til God's breath my ear does hear
So I cry, hear me God

On the merry wind of light
A message for those in chains
A man came and freed wrong and right
By enduring horrendous pains
So I cry, hear me God

This God Made Man (Redeemer King)
Has paved the way to be saved
Trees, beasts, stone, and birdies sing
Fallen man can be behaved
So I cry, hear me God

To take us to His Father's home
He taught us to accept God's Grace
Set up a base in eternal Rome
So any man might see God's face
So I cry, hear me God

With hope and faith I face this earth
The cross burdened on my heart
So I may Love the least of worth
His holy body, I may be a part

So I cry, thank you God







God bless,

An Ordinary Night



The scent of cool winds
The battle of small light pins
Beauty in the night





God bless,
