Friday Fantasy ~ Shepherd Boy

Shepherd boy perched up high

Your flock of stars ignites the sky

Trails of glitter light the way

Splendid is their quiet array

Guided by your steady hand

Glistening softly o’er the land

Keeping Watch Over Me

img_1957Graying clouds reflected my mood

As sunshine struggled to find a small opening

To brighten the feelings kept deep inside

I turned my head toward the sky

A silent prayer within to the One who can hear

To the One who can only truly understand

And as I said my final thank you

The sun broke through the gloom

And followed me on my journey

And I knew He was keeping watch over me.

autumn-202503_960_720How bitter sweet
The colors fade
Brown devours
Leaves of jade

Barren trees
Naked, cold
Longing for the
Leaves of gold

Winter’s white
A paling dread
Autumn fades in
Leaves of red

Melt Away

Tags

, , , , , , , ,

Winter’s first snow fell
Blanketing the earth

The cold of the burning sun
Offered us no warmth

Only the closeness of our bodies
Intertwined with each other

Only the heat of our passions
Could melt away the icy crystals
