Broken Angels
They try to fly
above their rainbows
hued with blackness
hidden greys
Splinted wings
despairing sorrow
aching longing
for release
Brokenness
beyond tomorrows
powerless tears
shatter the night
Who will save them
from such torment
will such cries
stay deathly hushed?
Break the silence
shatter the demons
be the one to
save a life

2 Timothy 2:3 (NLV)
Take your share of suffering as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
God bless our dear #seniors who have given their lives and have sacrificed so much to raise their families. Seniors need our #love, #care and #companionship. Let us all remember, if the Lord terries one day we to will be a #senior.

Through aged eyes they see strangers,
where is the family that they have borne?
Long hallways of endless panels,
take the place of delightful garden paths
longing for companionship,
an endless stairway of silent tears
The desire to visit the old homestead,
in its place just shadows of the past
Days and weeks blend into years,
happiness fading into loneliness
Gnarled hands that yearn for touch,
once worked hard to raise a family
Straining for sound of child’s footsteps…
only voices of the past linger in their mind
Dear souls who gave so much, now are given less,
where is the family that they have borne?
So much is taken but how much is given?
love~respect~honour-! this is their right, is their cry
Todays ~ tomorrows turn into yesterdays~
memories they ache to share
Tenderly with helplessness their hearts cry out,
just take a moment~ can you spare a minute?
Through aged eyes they see strangers
Oh where is the family that they have borne?

Ephesians 6:2 (KJV)
Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise;
These years of the elderly, are so fragile and a time in life when they need to be surrounded by #love #family #support #affection and #kindness,. Don’t let their last years of life slip away being left alone left with a “stairway of silent tears” #Help remove the shackles of loneliness and neglect, and replace them with compassion and embrace time spent with them.
God bless

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

Silently wind sweeps in across the waters
igniting the beautiful murmurs amidst the trees,
it awakens the poet and summons the nakedness of the soul!
New verse is born my heart absorbs the wonder of creation
recording its expressions for future recollection.
Days are numbered every moment with every breath!
On my hearts canvas is a painting of the olive green forest,
I seal it with love for where I belong!
Stop the ticking of the minutes!
Listen! I hear hours passing on the old clock…
Observe the rain on the distant hills
with every gust of wind it inches closer-
like the teardrops threatening to escape!
Deep within the olive green forest there is truth to life’s reason,
Follow the aged dirt road past the rocks, bogs and beaver damns,
for there it is hidden!
I will return someday never to leave-
surrounded by the tall white birch, the blue inviting waters,
the bountiful delightful pink laurel,
and the handsome deep olive forest!
Together my love we will count the sunsets!
Together hands clasped we will gaze upon the moon and stars,
in sleepy slumber we will dream of our tomorrows…
This is our home my love!
This is where we belong!
