Into All of Him

Into All of Him

(for Kevin Spivey)

Fresh opportunities

To go Deeper, further

Into the Beauty of God

Along rivers of Grace

And fields of Truth~

The poppies blossom

In Abundance

Over and over again

And the fragrance lingers

Even under Winter’s frost

For the Heart rests immersed

In Abba’s Love,

An ocean of Peace

To swim and play in~

Oh Fresh opportunities

Dance eternal

Along every trail to take

For a son to bask

In his Kingdom Skin,

The Identity always longed for

Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow.

Rewritten Dreams

Rewritten Dreams

(for Allison Ngo)

A story derailed,

Dreams lost

And a Daughter uncertain

Of her Identity and future~

Do not fear or worry

For Abba breathes,

“My Daughter, I love you

More than the sands

In every sea floor combined!

I Am always for you

And I Am your Daddy

Who holds Rewritten Dreams

For you and your heart~

Some may stay the same

And others may change,

But regardless you stand secure

In me, for me, with me,

So never worry or fear

For the Rewritten Dreams

Await for you

And each one stands ready

To propel you further,

Further into my midst.”

Ten months together

Nine more until our day

And every day I find

New ways, treasures

To love you,

To cherish you,

To adore you Bride-to-be~

When I ask for words

The response rings out,

“Go With Your Heart,”

And so my Sunshine

I gaze upon you with wonder

Upon your Beauty and strength,

The depths of You

When I encounter every one

And not a day shall pass

Without my smile towards you

For you complete me a thousand times~

“Go With Your Heart” breathed

And my insides leap for Joy

For I get to Go with You,

My Sunshine, my Heart.

Just in case one needs

Flight Mechanics

Flight Mechanics

(for me)

Birds learn the hard way

 A shove out the tree,

Out of the nest

To spread their wings

And gain the knowledge

To fly, to soar~

The Flight Mechanics

Of wing propulsion

With the wind through the feathers

And the tail to turn

In the right way

To left, right, up or down,

Then seconds before they know

Updrafts kick in and they soar

High into the sky

Over trees and walls,

Through storm after storm

And though they may need rest

From time to time

The whole world opens up

For their Freedom beckons~

The Flight Mechanics, son

Stands built into your soul,

So open up and fly

Freedom awaits!

Yes You Can

Yes You Can

(for Dianemarie Encarnacion)

Questions abound

On dreams, desires,

Possibilities and paths to go

And the whisper mounts

For Abba declares,

“Yes You Can!

My Daughter, Yes,

You can do all your heart desires

And much more,

Maybe not all at once,

But one step at a time

One moment to the next

Even if multiple dreams

Stay worked on

All in my timeline

For Fruition abundant

In the course you go!

I trust you Princess

Yes You Can!”

The winds stir up

And a Daughter rises

In fierce determination.

Infinite Ideas

Infinite Ideas

(for Robert Cooley)

No shame in the game

For a man, a son

To hold Infinite Ideas

For the Kingdom of God

Share some, hold others,

Write all down,

The days will hit right

For each idea’s fruition

By you or others called upon~

The rhythm of depths unknown

To tunes never heard

Dances into reality

In Bold, fresh ways

For Infinite Ideas

From Intimacy with YHWH

Gather the flock together

On paths never explored before,

So share some, hold others,

Write all down

And in the appointed hours

All shall stand revealed.

A Long Hard Fight

A Long Hard Fight

(for Jennifer Wright)

A Long hard fight

Throughout the year

Tug-of-war each day,

Bent, but not broken

The pause to take in

Breathes new life

For even the hardest shell

Could not withstand

The love and wisdom imparted

By a Passionate One

Set to teach more and more,

Even when all say otherwise

Perseverance reigns

And another step forward

Allows for greater depth

To give of one self

To the next generation~

Oh a Long hard fight

Comes and goes,

But the bell rings

And in your corner

Rest rejuvenates

The lost perspective

Of why to continue

So Breathe deep and know~

You make a difference

In others’ fights.
