The Invitation Of Hope

The Invitation Of Hope

Hope is an orphan who seeks the suffering
And finds you on purpose to be
The reason to let tears flow
Cleanse the hurt away
And give power to rise up
Breathe the breeze of mercy and kindness
Raise our voices in...

Love's Ink

I love and I don't adore,
Again I write, longing for more.
When love fades, silence is my cue,
In my blood, it's a truth I...

The pond.

The pond.

I saw the pond
under the shadowy trees.
As if the pond was taking rest
among the surrounding forest.

When the rain drops kissed on its brest
and the sun lit embraced it.
The pond water made circles
and sometimes flirtiously...

My Man and the Sea.

My Man and the Sea.

She sits on the rocks. The ocean is quiet, deep, and alone. I wish in my heart that my man would come home. The waves whisper to me, and the soft sands of the sea sweep over my feet and surround where I stand. I need my man....

My Patch - My Garden - A Short Story

My Patch – My Garden

As l look out to my patch – my garden I feel blessed to have this tiny bit of nature on my doorstep. It is spring and the apple tree in my back garden is in full bloom. Soft pink petals beside deeper red buds that are still...

Shepherd's Watch

A voice for the voiceless
whose cry still unheard
Alone in the womb
but blessed by the Word

Defending the helpless
as murderers loom
Divinity watching
— a reckoning soon

Wow, the enemy is good:

Deception

Truth..

Subtle

A toxic wave..

New revelation;

For the grave..

Releasing secrets...

Hidden away...

The beast and the dragon pathing the way..

Beware: the false prophet;...

Robert Moffat Missions

He has come from the Glen
To a fearsome place

It is dry and raw

Giving ostrich space.

And he made his camp

With the family sweet.

Waiting patiently

For a tribe to meet.



They are warriors cruel

And they love to fight

The Love That Remains

The Love That Remains

The poet writes words into ashes
As if the witnesses to thoughts and feelings
Float away as dandelions on a breeze

Does Love remain on the memory.

Pod of big ones moaning

Out now 2 hours
Settled in course
Between coast and
Three islands
only marginal wind.
Sam rubs his eyes
From all the watching
For humpback.

Suddenly a grey hillock
Emerges from the brine.
One large eye checking
Us out with...

We’re Forced To Live With Theirs (Bussokusekika)

We’re Forced To Live With Theirs (Bussokusekika)

We all have a voice
We should be allowed to speak
About how we feel
Without it being suppressed
By those who are our leaders
We’re forced to listen to theirs

P.s.Make of this what...
