PASSION’S PRIZE
You speak without words
Yet your message is so clear
And I ride the flame

NOT A SECRET ANYMORE!
June 1, 2019
Soul Kisses From My Savior
You introduced me to my heart
The day that I accepted yours.
I know now that true and lasting joy
Was never before mine
Until that day I looked into your eyes
And found my very soul
Was looking back at me
In the pure love and grace
I saw reflected there.
You touched my hand
And led me to the place
That I’d been seeking all my life
Without ever knowing what I’d missed.
Suddenly, this secret of our love
Is one that I can no longer keep
To myself
And so I freely share it
Every chance I get.
A most amazing consequence
Is now so clear to me.
For every time I blow a kiss
You blow back two of yours!

MY HOME IS IN YOU
March 7, 2019
My home is the sun shining down on me
And filling my soul
With light.
My home is a song,
An echo from heaven
Which gives my spirit wings.
My home has neither roof nor walls.
It is your hand holding me close.
I sing.
I smile.
I soar.

MY HEART LEAPED!
October 15, 2018Oh how splendid it is to see
the brightness of the sun
after a long and stormy season.
But, like Job,
I, too, have suffered,
loss,
pain,
heartbreak,
confusion . . .
and then all that went away
and my eyes were blinded
for a time
by the brilliance that is you.
My heart and soul
leapt within me
for I knew it was you!
The glory of the Lord
had come
and my life would never be the same!
