PAST MISTAKES .REGRETS,MISUNDERSTANDINGS,
BURIED SIX FEET DEEP.
NO,THERE WERE NO CALLING HOURS OF FLOWERS,

GOING BOLDLY BEFORE THE THRONE PETITIONING JESUS
TO FORGIVE ME OF PREPETRUAL  SINS.
NO LONGER DO I HAVE THE POWER.
I COMPLETELY YIELD AUTHORITY OVER 
TO THE FATHER.......

IN A WATERY GRAVE JESUS  BURIED MY SINS
IN THE SEA OF FORGETFULNESS..........

Romantic Musings

intune, as it were, to her heart’s song?
Will poetry be written
by he, of her heart, surely smitten?

She stands quietly
on the edges of hope
forlorn of love to one again meet

Would beauty be seen
in eyes, still fresh, from lasting sorrows?
Would he look beyond
wintered years, seeing new tomorrows?

By day she dreams
with poetic musings
penned wishes petitioning love to greet
