  • Poem – Self-care

    July 6th, 2023

    In the garden of my being, I tend to the seed,
    A poem of self-care, the nurturing I need.
    With gentle hands and a compassionate heart,
    I embark on a journey, a love-filled art.

    I water my soul with moments of rest,
    Finding solace in stillness, where I am blessed.
    In the quietude, I listen to my own needs,
    Honoring the whispers, tending to the seeds.

    I nourish my body with wholesome embrace,
    Choosing nourishing foods, a vibrant space.
    I savor each bite, a celebration of life,
    Fueling my being, banishing inner strife.

    I walk through nature, in harmony’s embrace,
    Feeling the earth’s rhythm, finding my place.
    With each step, I release tension and stress,
    Embracing the beauty, finding inner caress.

    I seek knowledge and wisdom, a mind’s gentle care,
    Through books, reflections, and thoughts laid bare.
    Expanding my horizons, embracing new thought,
    Feeding my intellect, in self-discovery sought.

    I wrap myself in kindness, like a soft warm shawl,
    Treating myself gently, embracing my all.
    I offer forgiveness for past mistakes made,
    Embracing self-compassion, letting go of the blade.

    I surround myself with love, uplifting and bright,
    Cherishing connections, like stars in the night.
    With boundaries as shields, protecting my space,
    I cultivate relationships that honor my grace.

    In the journey of self-care, I find my own voice,
    A sanctuary of healing, where I can rejoice.
    For when I tend to myself, with love and respect,
    I discover a flourishing garden, a life so perfect.

    So I’ll continue to nurture, with unwavering zeal,
    Caring for myself, allowing wounds to heal.
    In this poem of self-care, a promise I make,
    To cherish my being, for my own sake.

    For in the garden of self-care, I truly see,
    The essence of my worth, my infinite beauty.
    With each act of kindness, a seedling takes flight,
    And I bloom, oh so brilliantly, in my own divine light.

    In a realm beyond clocks, where moments don’t fade,
    Where the passing of time no longer pervade.
    A place untouched by the hands of a clock,
    Where life’s precious moments forever unlock.

    Every connection cherished, every heart to mend.
    No limitations imposed by the hands of a clock,
    Just boundless love, in an eternal lock.

    Let us dwell in this realm, where time dissolves,
    In a place where life’s struggles and stress absolve.
    For in the absence of time, we find peace,
    And every moment, a timeless release.

    So let us embrace this timeless space,
    Where existence unfolds at its own pace.
    And live in the moment, forever in bliss,
    In a realm untouched by time’s gentle kiss.

  • Poem – Restoration

    July 6th, 2023

    In the shadows of doubt, where trust is frayed,
    A journey begins, in search of trust’s aid.
    Like a prophet’s call, we yearn to restore,
    The bonds once broken, to trust once more.

    We gather our strength, with love as our guide.
    With humility and honesty, we seek to amend,
    To rebuild the bridges, on which trust depends.

    For trust, once shattered, is a delicate art,
    Requiring patience, compassion, and a loving heart.
    Just as promises made, to restore what was lost,
    We too can rebuild, no matter the cost.

    Let forgiveness flow, like a gentle stream,
    Washing away grievances, like a healing dream.
    In the echoes of wisdom, we find the key,
    To regain trust’s essence, set our spirits free.

    So let us embrace this journey, hand in hand,
    Rekindling the flame, on trust’s sacred strand.

    Yet within our love, a struggle did reside,

    A test of strength we couldn’t hide.

    Through stormy seas and turbulent skies,

    Our love faced challenges, caught in ties.

    In the search for self, we often questioned,

    If our connection could withstand the lesson.

    Unearthing scars and long-held roles,

    We stumbled upon fears and insecurities,

    That tested the depths of our vulnerabilities.

    The struggle within, a battle fought,

    To find harmony where love was sought.

    But in the midst of the love’s fierce trial,

    We found a flame that refused to exile.

    For within the struggle, we unearthed strength,

    A love that could conquer any length.

    With open hearts and honest words,

    We faced the struggle, undeterred.

    Communication became our saving grace,

    Building bridges in the sacred space.

    Together we learned, hand in hand,

    To navigate the love’s intricate strand.

    Patience, forgiveness, and understanding will grow,

    As we fought for love, our hearts will glow.

    In the struggle, we discovered growth,

    A love that endured, surpassing both.

    For in the fires of challenge and strife,

    Our love will soon deepened, igniting new life.

    So let the struggle shape our love’s embrace,

    A testament to its resilience and grace.

    With Kat by my side, we’ll face it all,

    United in love, we’ll rise and stand tall.

    For in the struggle, our souls intertwine,

    A bond strengthened by the tests of time.

    Together we’ll conquer, hand in hand,

    Embracing the love, resilient and grand.

  • Poem – The Union

    July 6th, 2023

    In the garden of our love’s bloom,
    She loves sunflowers, chasing away gloom.
    Their vibrant petals, a symbol so true,
    Of the love that can blossom between me and you.

    In a sacred union once so strong,
    Two souls intertwined, where love belonged.
    With God by our side, our spirits renewed,
    A marriage seeking healing, faith pursued.

    But time’s weight has left its mark, misunderstood,
    And we seek divine guidance, where love once stood.
    Words once gentle now pierce like knives,
    Emotional wounds that echo in our lives.

    Yet hope resides within these walls,
    Where healing whispers softly call.
    With God’s grace, we’ll bridge the chasm wide,
    Rekindling the flame with love as our guide.

    Lowering pride, we humbly must bow,
    Acknowledging faults and regrets that somehow
    Drove us apart, veiled our true selves,
    But in humility’s embrace, our healing delves.

    For beneath the layers of hurt and strife,
    Lies a love story, graced by God’s light.
    With open hearts, we’ll trust in His ways,
    As we mend the fractures, seek brighter days.

    With patience as our steadfast guide,
    We’ll navigate the storms, hand in hand side by side.
    Listening, understanding, hearts open wide,
    God’s love in our marriage will forever reside.

    Like a fragile vessel, let forgiveness pour,
    Mending the fragments, as God restores.
    With each step taken, faith and love thrive,
    And His presence rekindles, no longer in disguise.

    Through the darkest nights, we’ll find the dawn,
    For God’s love, unwavering, helps us carry on.
    So let us dance upon these healing seas,
    Embracing the journey, as God sets us free.

    With resilience and devotion, together we stand,
    Reclaiming the beauty of love’s promised land.
    Our pride lowered, our hearts now soar,
    With God’s blessing, forevermore.

    And in the midst of our love’s sweet bloom,
    Sunflowers shine, dispelling any gloom.
    Their golden faces, a reminder so true,
    Of the love that can blossom again between me and you.

  • Poem – What an A$& (Donkey)

    July 6th, 2023

    In Mark 11, a tale is told,

    Of a humble donkey, gentle and bold.

    A colt, unridden, brought near the Lord,

    For a purpose divine, in accordance with God’s word.

    With garments spread upon its back,

    The donkey carried a burden it lacked,

    A symbol of peace, and a sign of grace,

    As Jesus rode in with love to embrace.

    The people gathered, their voices raised,

    Hailing the Savior, with hearts amazed.

    They laid down palms, a carpeted way,

    An adoring crowd on that blessed day.

    The donkey, obedient and meek,

    Carried the One, the Messiah they seek.

    A humble creature, chosen with care,

    To bear the weight of salvation’s air.

    Oh, donkey dear, you played your part,

    Transporting hope to every heart.

    Through dusty streets, you trod with pride,

    As Jesus, the King, triumphantly rode.

    Your simple presence, a profound role,

    Reminds us that greatness can dwell in the soul.

    For in humility, strength is found,

    And in service, true purpose is crowned.

    So let us learn from the donkey’s tale,

    To serve with love, and never to fail.

    For in each of us lies the power to bring,

    Peace, hope, and joy to the world we’re in.

  • Poem – Worry

    July 6th, 2023

    In the depths of worry’s chilling chest’s grasp,

    I fear my health concerns that tightly clasp.

    Yet in this battle, love’s touch I miss,

    Longing for the presence of my eternal bliss.

    Oh, how I yearn for my love’s soothing care,

    Her gentle touch, her presence rare.

    But distance separates us, it seems,

    Leaving my heart entangled in dreams.

    In solitude’s embrace, I bear the strain,

    Anxiously awaiting love’s comforting reign.

    Yet even apart, her spirit resides,

    Guiding me through these turbulent tides.

    For love transcends the bounds of space,

    Its essence woven in every embrace.

    Though physically distant, her love’s embrace,

    Wraps around me, a sheltering grace.

    So fret not, dear heart, in the darkest hour,

    For love’s power transcends physical power making ailments hurt less.

    Let hope take root, let strength arise,

    Together we’ll conquer, love’s flame never dies.

    God won’t let it die, He’ll get me through the clasping chilling grasp.

  • Poem – Stay Awake

    July 6th, 2023

    In Mark’s true words, a verse unfolds,

    A tale of vigilance yet to be told,

    “Stay awake,” the words echo profound,

    Asking hearts and minds to be everfound.

    Oh, let those words soak deep within,

    To pierce our souls, to cleanse our sin,

    Mark 13:35-37, a divine decree,

    A call to embrace eternity.

    Jesus spoke of His imminent return,

    When angels would gather, hearts would yearn,

    From earth’s far corners to heaven’s embrace,

    The Son of man shall reveal His grace.

    With power and glory, He shall descend,

    His presence unbound, no limit to transcend,

    No mortal knows the appointed hour,

    So we must be prepared, each day, each hour.

    Two thousand years have come and gone,

    Yet the truth remains steadfast and strong,

    Closer we draw to that glorious sight,

    Stay awake, be ready, with hearts alight.

    Like a house awaiting its master’s return,

    We guard our faith, our souls yearn,

    In the evening’s shadow, or at midnight’s call,

    We stay awake, lest we stumble and fall.

    Oh, let us not slumber in ignorance’s embrace,

    But watch and pray, seek heavenly grace,

    For in every moment, a chance to prepare,

    To meet our Savior, in His love to share.

    So, dear soul, ask yourself this day,

    Are you ready for Christ’s glorious way?

    Let Mark’s words guide you, a beacon bright,

    Stay awake, be ready, in truth’s pure light.

    In prayerful whispers, he humbly implores,

    For Jesus’ protection upon the one he adores.

    With all his heart, he seeks heavenly might,

    To safeguard his wife’s journey, day and night.

    Oh, gracious Lord, he places his trust in thee,

    Watch over his wife, your grace to reach.

    Wrap her in your arms, keep her from harm,

    Let her feel your presence, gentle and warm.

    Guide her steps on paths both wide and narrow,

    Illuminate her way, like a beacon in the sorrow.

    Protect her heart, her spirit, and her mind,

    With your divine power, may she always find

    Strength to endure, and faith that won’t cease,

    Knowing you, Jesus, provide eternal peace.

    In this prayer, he offers his deepest plea,

    To entrust his wife’s well-being to thee.

    For you, dear Jesus, hold the power to defend,

    With love and mercy that knows no end.

    He surrenders his fears, his worries, his strife,

    Knowing you’ll safeguard the love of his life.

    Trusting you, Jesus, to shield where she goes.

    With gratitude, he lifts his voice above,

    Praying for your protection, bound by love.
