Deeper Wisdom

What kind of foolishness do we learn;
do others lead us like sheep?
Do we pay for our failure to discern;
must we always learn, and weep?

Everyone drinks from the cup of knowledge;
and there is so much to be learned;
much more wisdom than taught in college;
do

Lifetime Debtor

I looked all around and considered;
all of the things money can bring;
the furniture that had been delivered;
but money can’t buy everything.

Once I had bought it; I owned it;
that much was apparent to me;
its not as though I’ve condoned it;
but nothing in

Let Me Be Led

There is that road less traveled;
with weeds and thistle overhead;
where that growth is unraveled;
Oh Lord; please let me be led.

I cannot tell where it’s leading;
much like a jungle of the mind;
and yet, it almost seems pleading;
that I see its completion defined.

Lord, Help Me

Lord, help me to be a blessing;
to each one I meet, today;
their souls, my energy caressing;
may your light show them a way.

Don’t allow my temper to weaken;
no one deserves my rebuff;
permit all my love to deepen;
for each one has burden enough;

Alive

How does it feel to be empty;
no longer carrying a load?
It really doesn’t tempt me;
it makes me want to explode.

It’s a sign of a lack of purpose;
no longer having a reason;

but only for a short

Autumn Leaves

Some think that life’s a competition;
to separate good, better and best;
but life is truly a war of attrition;
dividing those who learn from the rest.

Life isn’t about whether we win or lose;
it’s far more complex than that.
Life is determined by the road

Attitude

Some think that life’s a competition;
to separate good, better and best;
but life is truly a war of attrition;

Life is determined by the road

A Seed Of Love

Many attempt, their love to define;
with sweet scents and musical notes;
others use dinners followed by wine;
and most cleverly devised quotes.

Most, unaware how love is planted;
a seed, sown deep in the mind;
or how it can grow and is granted;
by such things, love is defined.
