just one conversation
can cause
the clouded glass
that’s been
blocking your vision
to shatter
on the ground
and melt
into the heat

“Private Conversations”
[written 7/9/16]
I’ve realized
how my mind
and my heart
communicate
one’s more positive
than the other
when my mind says
‘I can’t handle this’
my heart replies
‘Bring it on!’
so I’ve been training my ears
which to listen to
because the heart
makes more sense
“Appetites”
[written 7/9/16]
some people “look”
for a grudge
to hold onto
because it fuels the anger
that controls them
whatever you feed
will never starve
Gasoline

The media seems to be the fuel for many wildfires.
“Unmasked”
[written 7/8/16]
sometimes in your present
you’re reminded of your past
and think back not believing
of who you “used” to be
that’s a very good place
reminded of who you were
and seeing who you’re not
by knowing who you are
as who you’re meant to be
it may sound confusing
in a poem
but in my heart
it makes perfect sense!
Hugging the Heat
[written 7/8/16]
Ever since I’ve been in Texas, God’s had me reading in Hebrews, so for the last five weeks, that’s what I’ve been doing, and I’m not one to “rush” through my reading. Continue reading
Our Bedroom!!
Since we’ve been in Texas, Scott’s been working on two bedrooms: first the kids’ and then ours, so for five weeks, Scott and I’ve been sleeping in the dining room, UNTIL LAST NIGHT!
We finally have our bedroom!! And it’s beautiful! And it’s YELLOW!!
“Prideful End”
when I think of our country
I think of “est”
seems someone
always wants the name
funniest
truest
bloodiest
deadliest
there’s so much profit
from tragedy
so much pain
in the rally
I’m not one to write
about things in this world
normally
just what I’m going through
but the here and now
is to be expected
because Pride seems to reign
in many hearts
for many years
races, religions
and organizations
have removed God
and then wonder
why the devastation
God’s NOT in control
WE are
so what will people do
pray?
gossip?
berate?
one nation
over God
divisible
with chains and deception
for all?
not in my heart!
“Fam-i-ly”
when a child has to choose
between mom and dad
things change
a seriousness takes over
and fun seems to be forced
it’s not a part “of” life
it’s a part of “our” life
choices birth decisions
decisions birth choices
I cannot change
the past I’ve created
but I can choose
to love well
forevermore
which includes now
and every tomorrow
