“Windows”

| Laura Lee Bonde

some people say
only share the positive

I don’t agree

I share my heart
so when I cry
you cry
when I laugh
you laugh

as I go through life
you share my life
the lowest lows
the highest highs

you’ve see where I’ve been
and where I’ve let God lead me
by faith
by love
by passion

thank you for being
part of my life
past
present
and future

Midnight Silence

| Laura Lee Bonde

I think, for me, one of the greatest gifts is when my kids get along.

Last night, we celebrated my birthday early, and that didn’t happen, and (at least) one of them is still upset. You know how I can tell?

For every birthday, my oldest son, Kyle, wakes that person up at midnight to wish them a happy birthday.

He didn’t wake me up. 💔

“Sound Waves”

dangling
requires holding on
but to what

if you hold on
to the past
you’re bound to fall

if you hold on
to a circumstance
you’re bound to not see

if you hold on
to one’s burden
you’re bound to be weighted

and sink to the bottom
where yelling seems necessary
to break through the waters

but it doesn’t have to be

let go of one another
let go of the worry
let go of the past

and grab hold of Him
Who pulls you up
to see through His Heart

“Rhythm of War”

| Laura Lee Bonde

marching
without sound
pursuing
without veering
flowing
without stopping

into a heart

heaven’s armies
join as one
to move in motion
to the one
who’s prayed for

without permission
without defeat
without a plan

of losing

everyone has a song
everyone has a sound
that heaven creates
through worship
