1.
I couldn’t make my bedroom church
reading psalms and Lord’s prayers
the light of my lamp and
the portion of my cup couldn’t
lift my soul mired in passions
and silence of the morning
the confessions couldn’t remove
my anguish of ages
nor the tears and cries strengthen
faith hope and love – the rock
slips the grip for enemies
within don’t halt my body
glues to the ground seeking
darkness of the womb and joys
ever restless the child doesn’t
grow and the father fails
in verses I can’t hide fears
my face I despise, can’t find
freedom from the chemicals
sprayed in the air and the smog
oppressing my breath, the sun
fails to keep the covenant
As water falls
from clouds
And music flows
from guitars
and words leave
the poet
and light
pours from stars
As art
from the painter
scent radiates
from bloom
peach tree
bursts from pit
child born
of womb
As attraction
leaves the magnet
love departs the heart
heat leaves the fire
Auras
from souls depart

wake up precious beauty,
as you lie inside my hand,
drops of tender gentleness,
await you in this land,
♥
open eyes, sweet baby,
there is so much here to see,
we're trying hard each night and day,
to make a better place for thee.
♥
breathe in air my loved one,
taste the milk that will sustain,
this life is full of sunshine,
and it's also filled with rain.
♥
So as you feel each droplet,
know that love is leading the way,
kiss the sun each morning,
hope will shine bright on this day.
♥
