when I look inside my heart
I see meadows
and flowers
tall grass blowing in the breeze
clouds moving softly
to the motion of the angels
mountains in the distant
yet close enough to reach Continue reading

“A Dance with Desires”
God has kissed
the simplest desires of my heart
the ones I would’ve
pushed aside
the ones I would’ve
turned away from
He’s met
with His hand out
dancing all around
dipping each one in His love
twirling them into existence
for me to see
“Old Towns”
I remember a place I used to visit
called “Desperation”
where I’d buy gifts for men
hoping they’d want me Continue reading
“Fences”
young kids growing up
in pain
not being loved
not feeling loved
not knowing love
finding church hoping Continue reading
“Axis”
if life takes a turn
you won’t lose your direction
if you’re standing still
in His Heart
be still and know
keep moving forward
and trust
only look back
to help someone else
never give up
and always give in
to His Heart
let HIM move your direction
let HIM plan your steps
let HIM open your heart
to hear
all that He has for you
all that He wants for you
all that’s in store for you
let Him be your compass
and follow
“Teapot”
He filled me up
warmed my heart
poured me out
for all to drink Continue reading
“Negatives”
pictures can be good
remind you of the past
take you back to where you’ve been
pictures can be bad
remind you of the past
take you back to where you’ve been
“Armor”
will death care what you wear
or how you look
will shame move one
if you’re put together
will regret stay afar
if you’ve got your makeup on
will pride move aside
if you wear your hat
authority is known in the heart
and moves mountains
stands against the storms
withstands the heaviest winds
is a part of who you are
not how you look
or what you wear
it’s from the inside out
“Lifelong Plan”
when I think about the strategies of hell
I think about what they’d want to accomplish
destroy dreams
raise kids with fear
make God look bad
keep hearts looking down
running the other way
if he keeps hearts FROM God
he doesn’t have to worry about God moving THROUGH them
they stand for darkness
abolish light (or try to)
those who “might” be saved
never releasing the Kingdom
embarrassed to speak of Him
if he attacks them as children Continue reading
