Walk to the Temple
A moment away in a mountain getaway
where the deer and squirrels readily play
Trees and creeks, paths from past feet,
In my silence I can here what they have to say
I am only a molecule in the presence
of all the things that make up existence
My once hurried mind is caught in the essence
of the continuous motion of frozen moments
A calm serene takes over my body
as I realize my short walk has become a journey
of exploration into my own realization
that I am so much more than the sum of me
I stop for a...

MOTHER
Blind
I see her beauty
deaf
I hear her melody
ignorant
I partake of her knowledge
poor
I share her wealth
in-drawn
her vision reigns my heart
yet the darkness of dust
veils my being
I don't understand
the hidden words
though I sit
under her tree of love
she's still away from me
just one pace
if I could take
I enter
the pavilion of eternity

A Kiss From Heaven
It's not everyday I get the kiss I desire,
That fills my heart with love and fire.
This kiss reminds me he is near,
As I miss him through every tear!
I want it to rain, I want it to pour,
Because I miss him more than I ever did before!
Each raindrop is a kiss from my dad,
To remind me to keep going and not be sad!
I miss his kisses, his voice and his touch,
And it's slowly killing me all so much!
Feeling his presence and having him near,
Isn't the same as having him here! ...
That fills my heart with love and fire.

And it's slowly killing me all so much!

The Star Dream
The dream's setting
wasn't surprising
considering my Florida childhood
sand
blue sky
puffs of Cumulus clouds
Atlantic Ocean
a boy
maybe 10 years old
ran up to me
saying a star had fallen
excited
i followed him
planning to scoop it up with my shovel
into my little red pail
it would fit
because stars are small
with five points
or maybe i pictured six
since I was Jewish
we walked a ways
rounded a corner
and there before us
was a field of...

Curious Got Me This Far
Curious got me this far,
But conviction has done me in
Periphery sights in the fore
Can’t see what’s settling in
Give me what I came for,
And I’m out the door again.
Craving sylvan hillsides
Verdant and turbulent,
Set me down under arboreal parasols
Only glints of radiance grace the skin,
A life full of demons, I confess my sin
Here within the confluence baptized in chimerical reverence.
Jade eyes staring into the cerulean sky,
Seeking truth in nebulous phantasmagoria
Counting clouds pushed by a zephyr, ...

We the Godhead
Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.” —Romans 6:9
I don’t give a fuck about dominion over death.
Show me a god with power and care to conquer the devil that kills from the inside out.
Divine me a deity whose scalpel can slice incise and drain hatred and greed from this world.
Send me a savior who doesn’t allow cancer
to grow and thieve moments of life and peace from decent humans.
Create a Creator to heal the wounds of anxiety in a child whose fears frame the darkness.
Such an Immortal...

Fastball - My Spiritual Awakening through Baseball
I can hit the fastball
But I really want to hit the slider
Same thing in writing verse
The erotic comes easy
but my own core emotions
always leave me wanting more
fom myself
So, no erotic poems this morning
Going back to the basics
My need to write
I hope you will let me in
Even though I have been hard on you
I'm not a bad guy
And I don't spit too much
When I'm at the plate
But I really want to hit the slider
Same thing in writing verse
The erotic comes easy
but my own core emotions
always leave me wanting more
fom myself
So, no erotic poems this morning

I hope you will let me in
Even though I have been hard on you
I'm not a bad guy
And I don't spit too much

a moment of harmony (lyrics)
Verse]
The water calls to me
there's a cold breeze on my face
and sand in my shoes
in the unhurried slide
down a sand dune
[Verse 2]
The sky looks like
it could go on forever
and I take in
the wonder of the
clear blue
[Verse 3]
I feel so small
so humbled
by the harsh crash of waves
and how beautiful
how merciless
the ocean can be
[Chorus]
I could be a grain of sand
or a sea star
washed up on this beach
drawn here by the waters
that...

God pardons
Yesterday feels like Disney..
Now it's the house of terror..
Grandpa. What's your advice?
Got compromised?!..
No. Yes, both oh! May be..
Confused?
Certainly.
So what do you say?..
Anything new yet found under the sun?
Not that I know of.
Good then..
Are you among the many of us who took life as REAL?
Seal this

Don't mind me looking at God
Don't mind me write
I found a diamond
Oh hey
Look
Look what I found.

I found a diamond

Look

When I Lost My Father
When I Lost My Father
May was about to pass into June
Red clover was in bloom
in the fields around Natchez, Mississippi
Honeysuckle vines grew on the fences and trees
Whose flowers were picked by Children
To pinch off the bottom
and taste the sweetness within
“But my blackberry harvest came
long after Dad roamed
The blueberry barrens of Maine
In the solitude of his shyness
When time was a cool breeze
With Grammie...

In the silence of the grave
In the silence of the grave
The Resurrection of Our Lord
Jesus won the victory!
He conquered sin, hell and the grave
He conquered all for you and me!
Oh what wonderous love un-matchless
That our Savior humbly died
There upon the cruel Golgotha
He was willingly crucified
For three days, His body lay
In the silence of the grave
But on the Third day He arose
Triumphant over every foe!
Oh victorious deed un-matchless
When our Savior did arise
He is the Life and Resurrection
Our High Priest...
