Not a Good Boy

Be a good boy
Do something sweet
And if you do
You’ll get a treat

My ego will thrive
On what others will say
A sad realization
I’m still living that way

It’s no different than
The Pharisee
The problem with it
That it’s all about me

Forgive me O Lord
Help change my heart
Refocus my lens
A new way to start

Let all flow from You
My purpose be
Receiving and sharing
Your love and glory!

A Winters Snow

So softly and gently
Falls a winters snow
From heaven above
To the earth below

Peace is prevailing

Mercy is blessed
For each soul to know

Soul come to resting
Of prayer nice and slow
Being of stilling
Let the Spirit flow

Unique are the blessings
That we have to show
Giving, receiving
Of His love to sow

A Need

I need some time in Your Presence
I need some time dwelling in
In need some time of silence
A prayer now let us begin

A seed of realization
I’m blessed in this moment here
Transcendence into eternal
Through Spirit of being we share

Creator seeking created
A drawing of humility
Acceptance of love so completely
Here now just let me be

Cup of the overflowing
A calling of greater to know
Divinity, one of Your sharing
A need of Your filling to flow

Bless All

As the sun slowly rises
Light to the earth
A blessing upon
This new day of birth

Bless those who’ll pass
Bless all be born

And all those forlorn

Quench all that thirst
Humble the righteous
Lift up the cursed

With gifts of divine
Bless all with love
And this heart of mine

Trust in our savior
On my gravestone write
