Beautiful Poetry!

 More of the poem of  "something missing in my heart tonight.'


 

Absolutely Clear


Don't surrender your loneliness
So quickly.
Let it cut more deep.

Let it ferment and season you
As few human
Or even divine ingredients can.

Something missing in my heart tonight
Has made my eyes so soft,
My voice
So tender,

My need of God
Absolutely
Clear.

I Have Found a Poet Whose Words I Love!

Oh have I ever found a poet whose words I love...

Another one of my loves is photography, and this is one of my favorites I made of wildflowers in Austin County in Texas.

He was a thinking man, who longed for God, and he was Iranian...  This man knew God leaves no room for hatred among people of the world.

If God Invited You To A Party

If God
Invited you to a party
And said,
'Everyone
In the ballroom tonight
Will be my special
Guest...'

How would you then treat them
When you
Arrived?

Indeed, indeed!


And I know
There is no one in this world

Who
Is not upon
His Jeweled Dance
Floor
