What Crosses My Mind

  • I Wonder About Love

    Oh it is true the feeling you might have, the moment the mention, the imagined response to knowing, wanting, having, believing, sharing, all the keywords that could be eternal, always an option, for it was told, we could often recall, the word, the name, the title, the option, … and yet we always do somehow…

  • His March

    If by decision we choose then to grow, Circle of faith becomes our afterglow When certain the world is a whole state Might we in spiritual Grace relate. For though Heaven with Hell may combative Create constant a choice to ask plaintive, How shall a martyr seek sweet evidence While a near quiet heart leaves…

    If I can stand in the water pouring across my sky, I feel the beauty of nature, yet this is peace, I am soft with my notions today, without pain, the quiet release is cleansing.   Yet, as these words do in a manner please me, I am saddened by the reality of the south,…

  • I Will Believe (for the victims of Charleston AME)

    When I stepped outside tonight I wondered only the same, how will you be, she, they, what will we discuss, I lived for sharing moments, finding God together, we had our plan, we were safe with one another, my life is built around the honor of shared dialogue, we all do believe in the same,…

  • Once A Day

    On a clear evening, I did see you, stellar and large in your elegance, a natural form of my humility, glancing my way, holding court with the world beyond my eyes. Once when with pure energy, your flash of brilliance, spoke to the water, trails illuminating a path toward eternity. I will seek that trail…

    That’s when you left for real this time, let me explain, you’d never left before, always there, always nearby, no matter the miles, a phone call, a letter, nearly an email, whatever the venue, I could always count on you. I think our lives are peculiar in their manner, making us believe people will be…
