What the nerve!
Say you deserve
Just what your heart desires
Dare to ask
First be last
Truth feeds creative fires

Crimson Rose
What say your heart?
Message etched across thee
Indelible mark
Truth warm and stark
Known as released
Raw lovely

Air talking, had enough
Voice to ear is heard
Let silence be
Carried
Each word

Packed in cotton head to toe
How much pain she’ll never know
Burned before, down to the quick
Wrapped in suave to do the trick
Hips moan aching, bound up tight
Heart left breaking, holed up light
Pull yellow ray, unravel mesh
Unwind yarn told, make winding nest
Story victim, thriller small
Hurt by others, lovers all
Tug tale’s tail, make believe
Misplaced heart still on her sleeve
Round and round, mind play fight
Long sob story, painful plight
Underneath, more sagas lie
Wound and wound, more reasons why
To keep them now would hide true face
Lest pretense shed, redeem in grace
Bound unbound, frame limber and free
Reveal the gift God placed in me.

The quiet telling of the truth
like snow silently falls
upon closed hearts made whole
with its gentle touch

Boxes in
Collapsing
into
boxes
inside
boxes
Retreat to
Shelter to
places to
hide
Safely
Contained
out of harm’s
way free from
hurt trapped
along
inside
boxes
inside
boxes
inside

Split Decision
Two-way tie
We decide
And shall I
Inner quest
Verdict cast
Not loss to win
Nor first from last
Truth be told
Honor still
Come what will
Each moment past
A choice be made
Toward greater love
Care be taken
To convey
Not martyr’s guilt
Nor selfish way
So listen deep
What God’s to say
Guide heart’s path
To peace we pray

Back and forth and
Squiggle squaggle
Heart to head
No more to haggle
Align the thought
With heartfelt truth
Then all be known
No search to sleuth
But how to wed
Feeling and head
‘Tis work of effort,
toil and thinking?
Or simple breath
of quiet knowing.

Dancing ‘Round the Rhino
Make way!
Here it comes
Look out!
Has anyone seen the invisible beast
that no one is talking about?
It’s huge
It’s heavy
Its stink fills lots of space
Yet goes unseen, cannot exist
No, not in this pure place.
Say, what
did I just bump into?
Why can’t we see with courageous eyes
its mean fearsome face to face?
For if we could
It surely would
Shrink to a danceable size.

Being Time
Little Match Girl
Strike it rich stitch in time
Saves mine match strike spark a blaze
Craze the flame from a glow
Blown breath a new
Moment of complete acceptance
Without doing only being
Time of eternal truth
