“Teaching Life”
When I think of life before Jesus taught
there was no measuring up
someone lorded over you
the Law
not knowing who you were
not being able to live right
controlled
at twelve years old Continue reading

“Victory of the Heart”
When I look to the horizon
there’s no end
When I look to the sky
there’s no end
When I look to the stars

“A Couch that Speaks”
breathing
peace
sounds from the couch
what’s God doing to my heart
breathing
asleep
restful break from the park
a home to feel comfortable in

in clean clothes with a shave

breathing
serenity
being accepted as-is
being loved and spoiled with food
breathing
resting
once a boy, now old man
a son and a father to others

coughing
life’s taken its toll
health that seems to be weak
breathing
waking
to realize time’s passed
the park awaits his presence
breathing
peace
sounds from the couch
what’s God doing to my heart
“Colors”
In my world…
laughter is music
silence is precious
clouds are sunshine
“Season’s End”
broken
like the wind
not knowing where to blow
hiding
in the stillness
or the shadows
darkness Continue reading

Being Watched
Yesterday, during my lunch, I took some time to talk to my mommy. It was so good to talk with her. As the time went on, we began to talk about my friend, Lee. She knew of him from Facebook and totally understood when I said good-bye to her to share with him a quick hello, which turned out to be an amazing fifteen minutes.
A few people have asked me how he became homeless. When I thought of why, I realized it wasn’t in my head anywhere, so I doubted if I’d ever asked him, so I had planned to ask him yesterday. Continue reading
