Two Leaves

two leaves, each an offering of autumn's grace
one onto the other held in heart's place
a sanctified array they do reveal
be these of blessings beyond conceal
chosen by hearts that live God's love
hallowed they be by the majesty of heavens above.

Quest of Poets

Quest of Poets

The poet in passion

The poet in grace

The calling of the Muse

Heard within heart’s place

The word BE it a calling divine

In resounding silence the pulse of time

From lives lived this soul does speak

The word, the word, in wisdom sweet

The Wondrous, the Omnipresent, the Revelation, the Divine

The quest, the quest of poets within heart mine.

The Poet's Tidings

Each hour, each day, each year now past

A journey, a questing, a destiny cast

Awaken awaken to the vision yet held

Destiny and purpose in glory meld

The sounding heart with yearning real

Reverie and passion beyond conceal

The Muse calls to sound its claim

Beauty and Truth the poet to name

A blessed grace be it known, be it heard

'Tis the poet's tidings in heartfelt word.

A PATH of LIGHT

A PATH of LIGHT to welcome our love
This from the depths of self and the heavens above
A PATH of GLORY be it known
This from the love within and in joy shown
A PATH of BEING to define blessings and grace
This from the pulsing within heart’s place.
