If I were to say
that God was existential
Some would tend to think
of it as being empirical
We know Jesus lived
on this earthly sphere
But I’m inclined to note
He is now existentially here
So tell me true
are you totally confused
Because of the big words
I have chosen to use?
I guess what it is
that I am trying to say
Very simply put is
that Jesus lives today!

Words
are combined
or stand alone
Definitions
have each
of their own
Used
for speaking
thoughts to convey
Written
as history
for another day
Words
should be
used much more
Communication
is lacking
like never before

Understood?
If, “There’s a plethora of tidbits
that are contained in my head.”
Was something that I simply
just out of the blue said
Would there be any weight
that it would carry with you?
Or from one ear to the other
would it just go right through?
If I said that my peccadilloes
were much more than a few
Would you have the slightest inkling
of what I was telling you?
Or would the thought of conversing
be more than a bit scary
Liked you’d need an encyclopedia
or to bring along a dictionary
I wonder if we weren’t all
wrapped up on how we sound
Just trying to each other
somehow amaze and astound
With the brilliance of
our most intelligent mind
What do you suppose
that we might find?
Worthwhile communication?

Diamonds and Pearls
The glistening diamonds
from my mind
I’ve left spread out
for others to find
Words are the tools
that I have found
to bring them up
from where they’re ground
My pearls of wisdom
that together I string
are given the world
as my love offering
Written down on paper
for others to look
right into my mind
like an open book
As poet and writer
it’s easy to see
just who I am
and strive to be!

We Speak To Them
To the;
*Young
*Old
* Alive
*Even Dead
*”Black”, “white”,
*”yellow” or “red”
*A million thoughts
we each convey
*Throughout the hours
of every day
* But was there
a single word
* That by any
was even heard?

A Cliche’ In Mind
Oft’ do I find
a cliche’ in mind
When sitting to write
of my latest plight
Trying not to go
where you already know
Rather bring something new
over which to chew
But it’s never easy
whether in-depth or breezy
A message getting across
without suffering a loss
Of the point made
to not soon fade
Yet in a cliche’ mind
it often stays I find!

On The Bay
Standing here on the bay
as the hurt fades away
from the words you say
seems like it’s every day
Wondering what I should do
because my love for you
is fading from me too
for the pain’s never new
While to God I pray
to show me the way
that Him I not betray
if I leave you today
For what’s left of me
what it must now be
is from you to be free
for you’re not my destiny!

For Shawna Marie, I love you!
