The
Heart's Cry
The
World of Pearl
The
Battle
The
Flower
You
Know Me Not
The
Heart's Cry
All I ever wanted
----was------love
But life----has been about
a----constant----shove
Someone
to care
When life----became
So
hard----to bear
Someone----to always------be there
Someone
who would listen
When tears would----threaten to----glisten
Someone
near
Someone----who thought me dear
Too
much to ask?
To great a-----task?
I've
traveled on such----a far-----journey
Hoping and waiting----to see
Love----to----find
and ----rescue
me
Hope
never dies
Because------hope------never----cries
There
are the sighs
experiencing----those christians ----lies
Hope deferred makes the heart sick
christians caused me to experience----sick
So----I wait
anticipate
Fairy
children------
never give up----hope
part of them-----knows
just how----to----cope
When
called upon----to fly
I will be ready
and
say
Here
I am------It is ------I
wake----to the infinity of-----love
and the
beauty--------of
the------
sky
Back
to Top
The
World of Pearl
Aggravated and irritated
abused----and negated
They
pontificated
and related
How
they were----right
and all----so uptight
She
celebrated her right to speak up and say what needed-----to be
said
They celebrated ignorance----she's better off----dead
She
came out----of the pearl
----as that young girl
In
that place----she found----
a silence so profound
That it-----screamed----her name
They must have been insane
Deja Vu all over----again
Her
pain was not----silenced but spoken----out loud
Speaking her mind to that----cruel crowd
More
pearls of wisdom----yet to come
Someday an ending and she will be----done
Back to Top
The
Battle
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
She fought the battle not so long----ago
Out
in the world
banner----unfurled
March
around the city
They marched without any pity
Blow the horn----and stamp your feet
Throw the rocks on her body and beat
The
city----has fallen----now
She will arise----because God will allow
They
are fallen
and cannot get up
All that is left of their bitter cup
One day the other trumpet will sound
She be standing-----free and----unbound
Distress
and Betryal
Could you not stay----with me----and pray----awhile?
Can you not go----that extra----mile?
They
sitting there----unbelievably-----able to----smile
His words----they were using someone to defile
He
sweat great drops----of blood
His emotions----rolling over Him---as a great----flood
They
wouldn't----stay awake
For God's------or anyone's------sake
Their
garden----full of stones
(and dead men's bones)
Unable to ----hear any pain or moans
Of
those----in----distress
Unwilling----to bless
Or
stay with me and----pray
Or speak to me-----and say
What
happened-----and let us----awake
and your----burdens on our shoulders----we'll take
So----I
prayed alone
They have----much to atone
In that----lonely and desolate-----garden of stone
For----they-----were
the stones----which at me----were----thrown
They were the seeds----which could never----be sown
Back
to Top
The Flower
They threw----Joseph----into a pit
Brushed their hands off----and said----well----that is it
They
brushed their hands off----and said
In our pit she will fall----she soon will be----dead
They
wondered----at his coat----of many----colors
Wondering why----there were no others
He
became a King----with strength----and power
She----a bud who became----a flower
coat of many colors----he was wearing
The word of God----they thought to be sharing
From
the pit to a kingdom----with love
They----still in----that pit----looking everywhere ----except-----up
above
Back

You
Know Me Not
I
was a child----born in a manger
You made quite sure----she----was a stranger
To
your----love and ----care
----all so----unfair
They
brought me----gifts----of frankinsense----and myrrh
Your gifts of judgement----said nothing----of her
They
bowed----low and worshipped-me
You tried to bow her low and keep her----from me
The
light of love shown around me
light----you extinguished----and you couldn't ----see
On
that----glorious----night
Where was your sight?
(Did it take flight?)
My
mother----hummed----a lullabye
I heard her sigh
I don't want you to cry
I am coming for you I plan to die
They----came
for me
But it----was a lie
The
angels----sang
Your tallys----rang
Vengeance----is
mine
You will see the sign
I
will repay
In Heaven one day
