Rain

As i lie listening to the endless splashing of water droplets from way above to the empty streets, not through any man-made device that can mimic the masters creation but the actual creation itself, my mind ponders over your latest well written peice, 'why i love the rain' or 'rain'.

I listen to the 'something' that surrounds me longing to FEEL the power and beauty of this 'common enemy', yet, with my wellies far from me and my warmest coat not nearly waterproof reason forces me to stay only hearing the pounding outside my front door.. it would be foolish at this hour, to stand alone, to feel the wonder of this magical moment.. or would it, I question?

Tonight reason wins..

Joy

Looking into your eyes
eyes filled with tears
tears ready to fall
fall upon cheeks
cheeks that are tense
tense from the smile
the smile that follows
follows the feelings
feelings of joy
Joy.

For Wendy

I pray and ask
if you're meant for me.
I plead with Father
to give me thee.

I must wait
for His plan to unfold
the answer 'yes' or 'no'
is untold.

I long to hold you
and nurse you with love.
Just one would be fine
all mine from above.

Cancer

Everywhere I go
Everyone I meet
has a story to tell
of a loved ones battle to defreat..
CANCER

Letting go

I can't stop these words
that steadily flow
after hearing that you
now wish to let go.

Your road too narrow,
your path too straight.
You're giving up all
after entering the gate?

To work for salvation
is it really that hard?
Do you have to give up?
Is your mind so barred?

OH how I wish
and pray for your soul,
to remember those feelings
that once made you whole.

Yet my hands are tied
it's your choice to make,
though I'll pray each night
for your soul to awake!
