As believing Christians doubt
errantly forgetting God,
He intercedes judiciously,
kindling love mid narcissism.

teaches us vital wisdom

I am the largest collection of leaves
Be leaf me
Wither the spoon
Killed with a knife’s
Thrust never gave me the push

The Bitter Seed
I sowed a seed in shadow's gloom,
A whisper nursed within my room.
Its roots grew deep, its branches wide,
Yet still, my secret lay inside.
Beneath the moon, the tree took shape,

I sauntered the path to the coffee shop
and heard my friends blabbing on endlessly,
astir with the recent barista flop.
I swallowed...

Wondrous WordsWords, wondrously wielded,
will warm wenches—
wise with witless.
Wicked wooers
work woes.
What weaselly wolves!
Wizards warping wills,
watering wishing wells;
waylaying wishful women
who wanted worshipful watchmen
when winters would wrest wealth....

Unspoken WordsIn the depths of my soul, I’m vibrant and alive,
But on the surface, I’m fragile and tired.
