Lovely Lilac

Lovely lilac
Fading flower
Pearly pink
Purple petals

Lovely lilac
Fervent fragrance
Populous panicles
Pristine posy

Just a Patch

Just a patch
of crimson and gold
Reminds me of
the impending cold
Days of fair weather
come to an end
The time of ingathering
to attend

T R A P P E D

Toiling with inspiration

Restricted resources

Ambushed by depression

Pitfall of despair

Perplexed by situations

Ensnared with life's troubles

Duped by worldly philosophies

Loving God

You are my loving God
The God of Israel
The Lord strong and mighty
Of Your mercy I will tell

I will sing of your love in the morning
Rejoice in Your faithfulness
My strength in times of trouble
You are my mighty fortress

You are my strength, I watch for you
My shield and sovereign God
My protector, strong deliverer
All praise, glory and laud

All praise glory and laud
To You, my loving God!

Fire Keepers

Keep the fire burning
That's been kindled in you soul
For the fire burns the dross away
And brings forth precious gold

For the Light is the Light of the world
And the darkness flees at His command

Keep the fire of praise ablaze
To combat life's malaise
For the Lord's fire is in Zion
An Inhabiter of our praise

Take your lamp where the fire burns
Bring oil most precious and true
For the oil causes the lamp to burn
All the dark night through

My Sister, My Friend

I remember
Summer days
Walking in the woods
Running through the meadow
Splashing in the stream
Resting in the tall golden grass
Naming the cloud

I remember
Winter nights
Aurora Borealis
Skating in the yard
Sleighing the big and little dipper
Might Orion ready for battle
Snow creatures
I remember

I remember
Fall leaves
