Carry me away on the wings of a cloud

The silence surrounding, ever so loud

Speaking in colors of pastel unknowns

Pinks and blues, in harmonious tones

Bathing in luminous, scattered beams

Drowning me in my forever dreams

That breathe the colors to make me whole

As I float along with Heaven’s soul

Calming repose, inhaling tranquility

On the wings of a cloud, whispered serenity

Brighten the night, with light from above

Awaken the ground, with your undying love

Your spirit ignites the souls in the sky

Dancing about, as they gracefully fly

Images, illuminating the darkness within

Creating their music, with a lyrical spin

Casting their wonder, in a spiritual glow

From Heaven above, to the Earth down below

Singing so sweetly, their songs, so tender

As my heart finds peace, my soul, surrender

When the dark rolls in

And swallows the light

I look for the answers

Oft found in the night

Seeking emotions

Finding the pulse

The heat of a moment

Seeking results

For the ebony sky

Sets my heart on fire

As it opens my soul

This, my one true desire

Breathless Secrets
The hush of the night

Breathlessly floats on the breeze

Carrying secrets

I wrote this when my daughter, Alyssa, was in the hospital.  It was such a helpless feeling.  One I hope you never have to experience.  I thank God every day that she is okay….He listens, even when you think He’s not…always have faith.

How can I take away your pain?

I watch, as your color begins to drain

Clenching my chest to bring it to me

Taking the horror you feel and setting you free

Praying to God, in Heaven above

Knowing he hears me, embraces with love

Reminding me always, this is part of his plan

As he holds you close, in his loving hands
