Sky so dark; full of star light. If I pour out my heart, will you hear me tonight? Should I whisper? Should I scream? Will your answer come in a dream? I’ve been praying in ernest. God hears my call. Do I need a new court? Try a different ball? I shall keep praying. ToContinue reading “Night Sky”

Last day of poetry month
What makes a poet? I once read a story where the author said, “if you want to be a writer, write.” If you are like me, you can come up with a million and one reasons why you are not a writer.

Old friend
Stick by me old friend, until the end. My companion until this is over. My one true soldier. By my side day and night. You are not the fright. You will not catch me when I fall. You will not comfort me at all. You will not carry me when I can’t walk. You willContinue reading “Old friend”

Not that he didn’t like his city or his people being protected; seems like all he did was look at sets of numbers. She was the lastContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”
Mask up

Thankful Thursday: Earth
Thank you God, “I love the mystery of the universe. I love all the questions that have come to us over thousands of years of exploration and hypotheses … but when I looked in the opposite direction, into space, there was no mystery, no majestic awe to behold … all I saw was death. IContinue reading “Thankful Thursday: Earth”
