We who are weary should not tarry. Rise up, and leave what you have carried. Lay it down and become something new. The time to start over, is over due. I know of a pasture with a gentle shepherd. where quiet waters don’t scare the herd. I am going to plant some flowers of Gold.Continue reading “In Fields of Quiet Peace”

Sea of Sorrows
Into the belly of the sea I must go. To find the sinking ship and it’s sorrows. To learn what caused it to sink below. And why it’s ghost always follows. The raging sea and thunder clashed. The sound of jumping ship splashed. Cold tears see the heavens and sinks alone. The lonely sea singsContinue reading “Sea of Sorrows”
Christmas Cry
Christmas makes me want to cry, I don’t know why but this comes from deep inside. A little bit of hope and a little bit of sorrow. Giving me a gift I can only hope to borrow. Giving peace to those in self made chaos. We fell to our own cause. One of complacent desperation,Continue reading “Christmas Cry”
Joy
Joy, What does that really mean? Joy was not wrapped up in presents for you or me. Joy was not found in the songs we used to sing. Countless parties left me thinking. No, joy is more than all these things. It is not warped up in ribbons of green. Nor, does it come withContinue reading “Joy”
Trust in Thee
Faithful you are and faithful you’ll be. My weary heart trusts in thee. I will wait for your promise patiently. on this side of heaven it may not be. Still my weary heart trust in thee. Gracious you have always been to me. Preserving the good you see. Yes, my weary heart trust in thee.Continue reading “Trust in Thee”
Tired Heart
Tired heart of the meek, I wish you to beat. Tired hearts are calloused, built like a palace. Pain locks the gates, building up hate. Let those wall’s crumble, and fill it with the humble. Let’s start with one, until we’re warmed by the sun. -R.D.Jess
Tomorrow you fight(Short poem)
My heart morns sin, brimming from fear of man. I feel the deep ache, as we cover our face. Compassion has left our hands. Filled with selfish plans. Look to the east, and eat the feast. For tomorrow you fight, with all of your might. -R.D.Jess
Awaken
We wake every morning half asleep, stumbling over everything. Wake up! I call out yet not a word is to be found. We are a tired nation fast asleep. We walk around with our eyes closed, no wonder we are sinking deep. Will someone awaken me? Seriously this is breaking me. What happened to family,Continue reading “Awaken”
Oh Lady of the Night
Oh Lady of the night will you let me sleep tonight? My feet are aching, my mind is racing. Oh Lady of the night, may I request to sleep tight? A place to unwind, and find peace of mind. Oh Lady of the night, can this not be a fight? I want to be friends,Continue reading “Oh Lady of the Night”
Little white flower
Little white flower, look at what brought you here. once a seed buried deep under, You didn’t grow on your own power . You didn’t pull yourself up from the dirt. No, you were nurtured and watered. Then the sun pulled you up from the ground. I too, was buried deep under, I could notContinue reading “Little white flower”
