Whoever Leads

Beauty for ashes

Brings the promise

Good follows bad

Like flowers on weeds

Lily pond’s rain

And sunshine mornings

Life’s simple needs

Matter to everyone

Love over hate

Joy dried tears

New faces old creeds

With thoughts beyond time

Tomorrow grows up

Taught by whoever leads.

 

 

 

 

 

Into the Light

the paths we take

may not always be right

sometimes they take us

into the dark night

We stumble-we fall

trying to find

our way

back to the light

we search-we seek

for someone to lead

some one to take us

into the light

we tremble-we cry

and don’t know why

life won’t help us

back to the light

we reaped-we sowed

by taking the wrong path

so we humble ourselves

we repent-we get right

for only God knows the way

out of the dark night

He has the eternal sign

that simply says

 “Just follow the Light.”

Darkness is No More

When dawn wakes the morning skies

And darkness is no more

We will face whatever is in our lives

With faith we cannot ignore

Knowing that sad tears will not fill our eyes

Just joy and true happiness galore

When dawn wakes the morning skies

And darkness is no more.

Soft Winds

Life’s strong currents had carried us

Far beyond ourselves

Lost in the vacant worlds of loneliness

Where the trails of the ‘maybes’ and the ‘could be’s’

Had faded and disappeared

Not finding our way

We wandered down the path

Of fears and self doubt

Then over the crest of time

Soft winds began to blow

A tender kiss, a tiny hug

A look that meant so much

The warm breeze nudging love awake

Beckoning us to come to another place

A place of peace where the other mattered most

And to not be afraid of tomorrow

The soft winds whispered through our souls

Caressed the thoughts of our minds

Springing anew expectant hope

Of a lifetime spent as two

Taking tiny little steps at first

Each fearful of another fall

Yet knowing in our hearts

That the soft winds of a Father’s loving will

Had brought us safely home.
