Sunday
Sad

Now I gulp down the grief
(for all that was lost)

And Go
(to try)

To trust
(because)

Because 

Of

And 

In

And 

Through 

And 

For 

YOU 

Jesus

For You

I trade my anger
(towards the ones who poisoned the well)

For forgiveness

For peace

For hope

For faith

For love


For You

Tenacious

Tenacious leaves 
Clinging still

Showing off 
Their shiny underbelly 

Reminding me 
That fall is all but finished 

And

Winter is on its way

Ghosted

How low can you go

Ummm
Well

How about getting ghosted by a
Professional God Gospeler

Woah

Ummm

Well

That is pretty low

As low things go

Even so

Beloved

Let it go
Let it go
Let it go

The River

I want to stand in the River

Feel you 
Push 

Push 

Push 
Against me

Take me from the shore 
Beautiful River

Sweep me off my feet

With

The irresistible current 
The irresistible current

Of

Poppa's 
Plans
Purpose 
Peace

Swallow me whole 
Beautiful River
Swallow me whole

In

The current of your love
The current of your love

Your ways
(Higher and better than mine)

Your way
Yahweh

Sweep me along 
Beautiful River
Sweep me along 

To

New and unknown shores


I'm leaving the life jacket behind
Leaving it all behind

Geese Scatter

The lake

Now teeming with goose and gander

Awakens 

Filled
With noise and splatter

Honk
  
Honk
    
Honk
       
Honk
	

You fly


Organized by some unseen eye

In v’s and v’s and v’s and v’s


Flee fly flo

(my beloved)


Off.

You.

Go.

Don’t You Wish

Don’t you wish you could gather up all your favorite people
And

Have coffee
And

Drink wine
And 

Eat Cake
And

Chips 
(with dip)
And 

Laugh
And 

Cry
And 

Listen
And 

Talk 
(over and under and with)
And

Love
And 
And

Don’t you?
