Hearts Desire (Dreams that are to be)

The heart strolls

through Autumn paths

scuffling through fallen leaves

scattered thoughts

drift through the mind

of a love that

holds no exceptions

knowing that every

breath is determined

journeys mapped

planned with purpose

crisp brittle leaves

dissolve with steps

reminds the heart

not to borrow

from tomorrows sorrow

all is required

is what to live for

so simple

is hearts desire

for all dreams

that are to be

calmly rest

within the Master’s hands

Remnants of Grace (God Will Provide)

Masquerade whispering faces

a costume for the heart

unveils painted smiles of torment

 

Veil of grey colored snow

a cloak around the soul

protects fragile prayers of sorrow

 

Will pliant like golden wheat

bended by Autumn winds

submission an expression of being

 

Intercession releases corralled feelings

a portal to absolution

no longer resistant faith takes the lead

 

Moving shadows confuse the heart

but light gives way to victory

mask of uncertainty dissolves

 

Painted smiles are washed away

from rain of glory skies

true countenance now revealed

 

Veil torn remnants of grace

His attributes pour from the soul

He is Jehovah! His child rejoices!

Love~Mercy~Grace…

“The LORD Will Provide.” Jehovah, the name doesn’t directly commemorate a past occurrence or circumstance; it anticipates  future actions. He Will fill the skies with glory! He Will turn your prayers of sorrow into prayers of thankfulness and joy! When you go through your times of resistance remember, surrendering your soul breaks through the veil, where Love~Mercy~Grace are just a breath of FAITH away!

Valley of Victory

Today I felt the burning sands 

the desert before the valley

 

My heart existent feeling scorched 

lay charred by broken embers

 

Lost within mirage of trust

my soul lay barren of hope

 

Valley of prayer now draws me in

as life continues to press

 

Weary soul gives way to HIM

amidst the valley cooling waters 

 

Through earthly defeat and losing self

my soul now claims the win

 

With battle of thoughts now at an end

the soul drinks deep of victory

 

Today I felt the burning sands

the desert before my valley

Tender Footings

Nickels and dimes of worries 

scatter like leaves of the white birch

 

Water droplets on still oak leaves 

dance in delight at our footsteps

 

Rushing river steals smiles 

carrying them to our laughing brook of tomorrows

 

Song of the chick-a-dee guides our passage

through splendor scope of God’s creation

 

Thirsty for fellowship ~ bonding 

quenched by promise of the bee’s quaffing 

 

Hidden caves beneath the rivers 

explored with tender footings

 

Weight of captures around our necks 

released by magnification 

of God’s love through nature

 

Bluejays wings keep time

with melody of heart to heart

 

Footsteps never to be forgotten 

vanish within earths soil of time

Seasons of the Heart

The Northern lights 

they call her home

 

Cry of the wolf 

forlorn he weeps for her

 

Stars are brilliant with life 

awaiting her return

 

The frozen north anticipates 

new breath of life

 

Warm summer breeze 

longs to caress her face

 

Pulling her back

to familiar senses ~ beings of once a time

 

Sun kisses northern lakes 

in hopes to glimmer the eye

 

Ache – is strong it pulls the heart 

towards the country of sunsets

 

Tis autumn leaves brilliant 

with spectacular shades

 

Time is short 

the chill of winter is lurking 

 

Drawing closer with every eve

restless turns anxious

 

Will the heart make it 

back in time?

 

Whistling wind brings first snowfall 

with flurry it arrives!

 

A blanket of fresh white linen

covers earth to keep it warm

 

Reflection dancing lights 

twinkle in brilliance against the snow,

 

For shadows of footprints

 not seen by naked eye 

 

Drifting satisfying from the wind

the soul has come home 

 

She has made it safe 

no more her heart will roam!

Echoes (The Last Test)

I walk the halls retracing steps

Distorted boards where feet once crept,

Where portraits of life once draped the walls

Bartered for dust to cushion their fall.

Sense of voice as once filled the air

In its place ghostly figures now congregate there,

Memories are haunting as time now stands still

Echoes of burden through the air send a chill.

As I slip through the pane broken glass of time

Without Looking back forgetting the crime,

Now once called for the soul is at rest

I break through the realm it’ s over the last test.
