Lost words


When I walk in the mornings or anytime alone, God gives me wonderful poetic words. I try to remember them until I get to a pad of paper and pen or to my keyboard. Sometimes the perfect thought or rhyme is lost to the wind forever....


walking at daybreak

is my best time of the day

the world is still except

for the birds wakening song

in the quiet stillness

I hear God whisper

these words


midday is loud, rambunctious, disturbing


by nightfall

quiet returns

peace is restored

once again

the words of God

can be heard

in the very stillness of my soul

and oh, how sweet they are
