Jabot

Jesus knows
Yeah, my ruffles and jabots
Where new vines sprout
Roots reaching deep
Where my curiosity grows
In that I'm glad to be back
To a city lying in ruins
Seeing it as my mess
Where warmth embraces my toes
Yeah, Jesus is aware of excess clutter and cat hair
Where revisions can wait
Where I have plenty on my plate
Yeah, Jesus knows
My ruffles and jabots....





















Jaboticaba

Under the shade of my jaboticaba and myrtle
Roots reach deep in soil moist and fertile
Given this latest word of advise
To follow the guides sent my way
At the pace of another content turtle
Now that I make my return trip
Upon a circle of cinematography
Up close to see the real me
In all that is you
And I can say that I like it....












Back To The Library

Concepts soon enter my brain space of damaged cells
Restored by my God's goof Grace
Sitting right next to me
With my content and relaxed face
Taking up another book about the law of attraction
Led by guides to the shelf
Where books pick me
When I return on a Tuesday
That does not quite yet exist
In that soon I think
Of all that is going right
For me to make that list....




















On Matthew 5:1,2

In dreams I see my multitudes
As I depart into a mountain to pray
In new perspectives and attitudes
Where once again by the narrow path
I find again my way
Where four hours remain
Till I turn it in again
By the resurrection
Of this old and new ball point pen
Drifting through another evening
To the sound of Dylan
Seeing the real you
In the real me
Giving God thanks
That I can still see...








On Matthew 5:6
3-31-13


Blessed so is me
Whom still hungers and thirsts
In that I give God praise
For where I am cursed
Seeing life as a teacher of all things
That are given
Where into a plywood plank
A rusty nail is driven
It was the place where I was supposed to have my first beer
Within the parallel realities
That could have been
If I would have never walked on such a path
Making the best of all setbacks
Blessed to be just who I am
In all that is you
And of He...
