I used to be too afraid to Climb I’d fallen from heights Fallen far enough to kill a man Or at least crush him underneath the weight of fear. Now I’ve given up on not falling Facing my fear Trembles turn to Smiles Troubled Thoughts turn to Dreams of the Future. My God, I neverContinue reading “The Courage to Climb Once Again”

Future: What Do You Hold?
I look at you And I shake at the knees Even one day ahead Too much for me to perceive To Control you is impossible To take hold of you improbable Let Go and Let God It’s all that remains.
Poem – Great Love of Mine
Don’t you know? Can you not perceive? Are you so unwise? Do you lack such insight? Do you not look into my eyes to see? Do you open your ears to hear? My Great Love for you! My Great Love for you! My Lord, Adonai I have refused to hear I have refused to seeContinue reading “Poem – Great Love of Mine”
Poem – Believing in the Shadow
This was a prose poem I wrote a few years ago after a long summer waiting in Yellowstone National Park. I was often alone and wondering where the next glimpse of hope would come from.

Taking Your Breath Away
Stunned. Taken Back. Where there is pain, Washed Away. Where there is sorrow, tears tenderly wiped away. Unfathomable Your Love. Mystery in Your Grace. Hope in Your visible Glory. Faith in our own unknowable future.
Triumph in Pain
Bled out on the floor before you. Life has taken it all away from me. Lacerations scar my body, my soul. Whipped and beaten, Barely keeping my head from the floor. Cold winter blasts Chills down to the bones Curled up like a child I cry out to you. Emotional Scars Crack through my chestContinue reading “Triumph in Pain”
Where Truth Abides
Dead drawn Dream of light Below Confounded under heavy mist Laying, tunnel vision surrounding grove. Dream Sweep, Somehow hiding beneath; Depression or dream? Sleep or hypnotized hallucinations? I cannot tell anymore Truth confused in endless facts and tales How to know lie from love? Who am I, mere man to discern? How can I keepContinue reading “Where Truth Abides”
Fighting to Believe
Teach me Your ways O’ Lord Show me what it is to do Your Will Lead me in ways of righteousness Confusion haunts the wandering mind. How to discern what is true? How to discern what is false? How to know the difference between? Which water will bring life and which will bring sickness? ReligionContinue reading “Fighting to Believe”
