SEARCHING



Seductive ways
And power plays
Life goes on
Yet another day
I really should slow down my speeding brain
Synapse firing snippets
Bombard me constantly
But this I know dear reader
Bored as hell I’ll be
Without the search for perfect symmetry
Flaccid feeling
Change of heart
Shattered essence
Faded art
Light years apart
I still cherish beauty
Art
Higher consciousness
May I never lose this gift
In today’s spiritual drift

ERIN



Her exuberance
Quite inspiring
As she shares her Godly gift
Alas Bill she says
“I may drown in Gods holy splendor”
Every glimpse a post card
Every breathtaking moment
A crafted miracle
She ponders how I know her
I was born to give her hope
Help guide her through minefields of earthly ego
Her pain
Strummed by insensitive fingers
Plucking her heart like a string
Still she overcomes
Despite the shards of broken glass
Shattered soul infection
That permeates her loving heart
A victim of narcissistic greed
She deserves so much better
As she slowly journey’s upward
Her crystal eyes
Firmly focused on the light
Intimate emotion
Such a beautiful thing
So often we withdraw from the flame
Recoil as the bang of life erupts
My how I admire her tenacity
Courage
Artistic intelligence
May she always find sheer joy
Peace beyond her wildest dreams
My tender cherished friend

VANITY (A song about Gods Grace)



Living life is Rehab
Not a TV Show
Holy buzz addiction
Its own subtle high
Lately I have noticed
My dreams of death aren’t nightmares
Yet the sweetest dreams of all
Deepest questions answered
Spiritual release
For I have finally found true peace
Not always satisfaction
But genuine serenity
As my body grows old
My many years of fleeing
Gods loving grace
Arrogantly trying
To control my destiny
Now I am free
Vanity
The root of my unhappiness
Today I drift unfettered
His holy tide engulfs me
The good times and the bad ones
They are all now good to me
I pen this song to share
My gratitude to Christ
Such wisdom and love gained
As I follow Him each day
He is the only way………
