Who's that knocking on my front door? So rapid. So hasty. Shaking the floor. I peeked through the window hole. To my surprise, there was no soul. I rubbed my eyes and looked twice. Ah man!

Poem: Wondering Under The Crisp Blue Moon
As I gaze upon this crisp blue moon. Under the blanket by the campfire. My soul longs to be much higher. Like a butterfly freed from her cocoon. If I spread my wings and fly away. My soul will journey to endless seas. Opening doors with nature's keys. All will be sunny and no longer... Continue Reading →
Poem: Letter To God In A Dreary Storm
Dreary drips of rain. Thunder in the night. Endless strife and pain. No true comfort in sight. Where is my hope found. If storms surround me? To sorrow I am bound. Who will set me free? If there is a God. My soul cries out now. I am deeply flawed. But please hear this vow.... Continue Reading →
Poem: Breathing In The Beauty Of God and Nature
Breathe in... Breathe out... Like fall leaves whispering in the breeze. The colorful trees putting us at ease. Holy God, calm down our anxieties. Breathe in... Breathe out...

Wake up to a world full of sin. When will all of this chaos end? Strife, rebellion, lust, and greed. Vices the media continually feed. Who will bravely stand up and fight?

Poem: The Flood Of Noah And God’s Promise
God told Noah to build an Ark. The Lord said, "Time to embarck." Noah reluctantly replied, "Why?" Because my creation likes to defy. Their wicked deeds are very clear.
