  • On The Inside

    All too often we make judgements based on appearances only.
    We may be surprised though, that despite appearances, when we come to know what's on the inside
    what we find can be appealing and quite special.

    What do they see
    when they look at me?

    Perhaps they zero in on my outward appearance.

  • Gordon The Goat

    Sometimes it can be difficult to find balance in life. All too often we may find ourselves going from one extreme and then to the opposite end of the spectrum, as is the case with Gordon the goat in this short children's poem.

    Gordon the goat did not have a coat,
    and the winds blew fierce with the storm.

    So to feel better, he donned on a sweater,

    "God is near to those that are
    broken at heart,
    and those who are crushed in
    spirit he saves." - Psalm 34:18

    "The one freely watering others
    will himself also be freely watered" - Proverbs 11:25


    We can all try to imitate our Heavenly Father by being a source of encouragement to others.

    Like a dry wilted daisy
    that so craves the dew,
    is a person crushed in spirit,
    in need of encouragement too.

  • The Wish

    Place me as a seal upon your heart,
    As a seal upon your arm,
    For love is as strong as death is,
    And exclusive devotion is as unyielding as the Grave.
    Its flames are a burning fire, the flame of Jah.

    -Song of Solomon 8:6

    This poem was composed based on that inspired scripture.

    If I was granted a single wish,
    no need for three or two,
    I'd wish our love endure forever,
    deeply cherished, and always true.

  • The Little Girl And Her Blue Balloon

    A poem about our beautiful blue planet, its current critical state and the Bibles assurance that Earths Creator will soon intervene in mankind's affairs and reverse the damage that has been done to it.

    See Psalm 37;29, 35, 36, Romans 16:20, Revelation 1:1, 2.

    The little girl raised her hand, and wrapped her fingers very tight,
    around the long white string dangling vertically, and held fast with all her might.
    At the end of the string was "Marble Blue", a beautiful big blue balloon.
    It floated up high, and from a worm's eye, sat beside the greyish-white moon.

I can relate to this poem and can share it's sentiments. Poe is quite candid in revealing his unique perspectives, and that takes courage. The poem, in it's entirety, is beautifully expressed, it is one of my favorites. The two lines that I particularly appreciate are,
"And all I loved I loved alone". -
I can relate to this line because the things that I find to be quite humorous are viewed by most as being devoid of humor. The other line I can appreciate is,
"And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view--"
To my understanding, in the cloud, he saw the shape of a demon, while any other person probably would have seen the shape of something more on the bright side - to my understanding. Like Poe, some see things from a melancholy perspective, and I proudly relate to that. The only drawback is that it's not very appealing to most. Nonetheless, Poe's poems, although dark, are artfully penned and appeal to many, including me.

I believe this poem is referencing the fleeting duration of the human life span. A leaf in the spring starts out green and tender. Until the frost comes in the fall and gives the leaf a 'kiss' or two, basically ending the leaf's seasonal life. The 2nd stanza repeats this thought with different wording.

The leaves turn 'vivid red' in the fall.
'Quivering' in the wind until the 'windy gust' blows them to the ground where they turn to dust.
Their 'little race' (life) is over.

Psalm 90:9,10.
