Wonderful New Spring Is Coming

Wonderful New Spring Is Coming
Do you see?
Can you feel the beginning of spring?
The air is warming.
The earth under our feet
is waiting patiently for the rain.
The trees and bushes
are excited for the flowers.
They know groth is coming their way.
Oh, what relief and joy will come
from the beautiful warm rain.
They sky will open for the ground
the earth will welcome it in.
A new life will start.

Goes The Clock: A Garden of Poems Excerpt

Goes The Clock: A Garden of Poems Excerpt
Tick tock goes the clock
as the waves rolls in
time may fly
or time may stop
the waves crashes on the shore either way.

Tick tock goes the clock
as the sun shines on
time may fly
or time may stop
the sun will heat the sand either way.

Tick tock goes the clock
it's far far away
time may fly
or time may stop
we won't pay attention either way. 

In late January 2021, I published my poetry book Garden of Poems. It is filled with poetry from 2013-2020. “Goes The Clock” is an excerpt from the book.

Wonderful Ice Cream: A Poem

Ice cream was a big part of my childhood and part of my adulthood for that matter. My family will get it on summer vacations and whenever I’m visiting I’ll go to the local Ice cream shop. When I was in middle school I would meet my friend there and get some ice cream before we went on some other adventure. I have a lot of wonderful memories around ice cream, so thought it would be wise to share my love in poem form.

Wonderful Ice Cream: A Poem
Summer days with their warm breezes
brings to me sweet memories
of delicous, wonderful ice cream.
When the air is hot,
when the air is cold,
I partake in the loving treat.
The taste of sugary cream
reminds me of wonderful days
carefree and filled with love.
Whether bought on the side of the street
or made with love and our own hands
smiles would blossom and bloom.
Joy and happiness always will come around
When the smell of ice cream is in the air.

Different Paths: A Poem

Different Paths is a poem about how there are different options in life. Sometimes it is confusing and you may choose the wrong path but God can and will guide you.

Different Paths: A Poem
Paths open.
They may wind away
or lead you home.
One may desire you to stay
while others push you to go.
Only a guide will truly know
what is right and what is true,
so trust the guide.
He will lead you safely home.

Pen To Paper: A Poem

Pen To Paper is a poem about writing and the reasons that I write. Writing to me is an exploration and is about discovering things I didn’t realize before.

Pen To Paper: A Poem
Pen to paper.
Paper to pen.
I will write
to see the ink flow
to find what's inside of me.
With random ramblings
I find treausres inside.
Whispered words of wisdom
never looked at before 
never thought of in the past,
so I put 
pen to paper.
Paper to pen
and I write.

Praise Him: A Poem

This poem is about praising God for all He has done. More and more I want to praise Him for the creativity and life He has given me. That is why more of my current poems are focused on God.

Praise Him: A Poem
Praise,
praise Him,
who created heaven and earth.
Praise Him,
who guided Israel to the promise land.
Praise Him,
who oh so loved the world.

Please Him,
who gave Jesus to the nations.
Praise Him,
who deated death.
Praise Him,
who oh so loved the world.

Praise Him,
who gives new life.
Praise Him,
who guides you and me.
Praise Him,
who oh so loves the world.

My Warrior Cry: A Poem

My Warrior Cry: A Poem
Let this be my warrior cry.
If life is a battle field I will fight.
I am in God's army.
I will be on His side.
My battles are His.

Let me put on my armor.
I will stand my ground.
I will fight with God's righteous love,
not against the seen
but what is hiding underneath.

Never Repeat (a poetry reading)

I'll Wait: A Throwback Video

Back in 2013 I wrote and posted Never Repeat. The next year I did a poetry reading of it. I was then going to put it in To Love, but as I edited it and focused the book on the love the poem didn’t fit anymore. Now I get to share it with you here, again.

Never repeat
not a single word
only write your heart,
the soul deep inside.
Let out one song
singing it loud
be proud
of the depths that are felt
dreams while live.
Remember this day
happens but once so
shine light with smiles,
cherish love
and see everything;
never repeating
not a single word.

My Psalm 23: A Poem

In a Bible study I’m part of we practice putting scripture in our own words in order to better understand what the Bible says. I love doing this and once did it with Psalm 23. Here is my version of Psalm 23.

My Psalm 23
Lord, You are my leader and guide.
I will follow you.
You lead me to abudance in life 
and refreshment for my soul.
You restore my soul, which You created. 
You lead me on the path of what's right and good.
I may walk through scarry and dark times,
yet I don't have to fear anything.
You are with me.
You will protect me and that comforts me.
You prepare a wonderfull feast for me
and even though my enemies may be around
who cares?
You bless me and call me your own.
I overflow with Your blessings and love.
As I follow You Your goodness and Your mercy follow me.
Forever Your love will be with me
and I will love and live with You,
Forever.
