A Love Like Yours

Let me see with eyes like Yours

Let me hear with ears like Yours

Let me cry with tears like Yours

So I can love completely

Let me walk where You have walked

Let me talk as You have talked

Teach me to look inside everyone

And find Your love completely

Through my friends and family here

I can feel Your presence near

You will take away all fear

So I can love completely

People look for love each day

Any place in any way

If they'd only look for You

They'd find true love completely

Your example led the way

How to live and what to say

Help us Lord in every way

To live your love completely.

Tycoons

They prance around

Like gods

These men.

The inner sanctum

Doors locked tight

Against intrusion.

Their bastion does not

Let anything out

For they are trapped inside.

Trapped by

Their own greed

Empty inside!

The sorrow is....

They

     Know it!

The Tunnel

I've traveled that tunnel of death.

Never could I imagine the warmth,

Deep overwhelming love,

Soul moving pleasure I experienced

Directly from the heart of God.

He wrapped me in

His Divine arms,

Held me more tightly, lovingly

Than any mother ever held

Her beloved child.

Possessed me entirely.

Such love does not exist on earth.

Divine not human.

A deep sigh escaped my lungs.

It made my closed eyes tear.

I realized that I have been loved much

All of my life

By husband, children, family, friends.

Never have I experienced

Having such golden love enfold me before!

The Music Box

Trying to nap I was laying

Down upon the couch.

My music box was playing

A melody so sweet.

Asleep and snoring gently

My kitty at my feet.

Black and white he is

A tuxedo cat so neat.

On the recliner chair was my spouse.

I think he's so sweet, so handsome!

Not wishing to awaken him,

I was quiet as a mouse.

I  tiptoed in behind him,

And touched him on t he arm.

Jumping up so suddenly

He feared he was in harm.

"Now our dinner guests 

Are coming soon

So wake up Donald dear".

We laughed together as he

Realized there was nothing more to  fear.

We had a lovely party with many of our friends.

They danced, they sang, told jokes, and laughed

Till someone was in tears.

We've had many happy parties

With family, friends so dear.

As passing time takes them away

We wish that they were near. 

Forward looking to the time

When all of us can be

Together with our Father

In that land so heavenly!

March 13, 1965----Selma, Alabama

Heartbroken I stand and face mankind.

This week the devil held us in his hand!

We did not squirm, neither revile....

The familiar hand held no aversion for too many.

Most were not moved enough to even pray.

100 years ago  the hope for the future was bright...

It was trampled on Selma's bridge tonight!

They fled in fright, their own brothers in command

Leading the hideous attack.

Bloody!  Dazed!  Unable to see!

Please dear God have mercy on me.

Many have suffered, many will die.

But the apathy of you and I

Is what spurs brutality, injustice, and hate.

What key to unlock prejudice's gate?

Heartbroken before mankind I stand.

I might as well hold a club in my hand.

Our "but what can I do?" holds no strength anymore...

We've said it too many times before. 

The path to peace

Perhaps it not be in His plan?

For generations to behold Him in every man.

But pray God we can make a definite start for humanity

By  teaching our children true Christianity.
