This,
this is what causes me to
lose,
lose my faith,
my faith
in the human heart, the
Human being.
So out of control, like a
runaway freight train,
Touching down like a tornado,
a swirling destruction of debris,
taking everything in its path.
All in the name of what?
What,
I ask,
do you gain
from sacrificing
your mortal soul
to the demon known as
greed

Choices

Choices, decisions, faith, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry, trust

Shall I climb this tethered vine?
Will it lead me to the sky?
Trust its strength to hold me
And carry me up high?

Or will it break
Like the weakened vine
That dangles down below?
And leads into the great abyss
I left not long ago?

As I ponder, wonder why
Which path is mine to take?
Will I know I’ve chosen right?
Is the decision mine to make?

Erase the Storm
Push away the storm

Erase the darkened sky

Look beyond today

As clouds are rolling by

Chasing thoughts of gray

Replacing them with light

He will always guide your way

Throughout the day and night

Do not be discouraged

Let brightness always shine

Happiness shall fill your soul

With Heaven’s smile, divine

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.
