Danny Speicher Poems

When the winter blooms into springtime, bright
And the birds are sweetly singing their tune
We consider Your benevolent might
And pray that the light doesn’t fade too soon
...

Dear Lord, please help my mind to be sharp
So that I might focus on the needs of others
Help my ears to be trained
To listen to the calls that need my attention
...

A year's gone by since I last heard your voice
Yet, I still hear it at least once a day
Whenever a certain song comes my way
Oh, I wish loving you was just a choice
...

Beautiful night, how the stars, they so clearly shine
And the joyful moon how it mirrors back my smile
Oh, beautiful night, you're good to a heart like mine
Oh, beautiful night, you've made this long road worthwhile
...

Walking up the hill, cross upon your back
Will that next step be the step causing you to crack
Wanting to scream out, “Lord, where have you gone? ”
Then you see Him on that hill as dusk becomes dawn
...

Far, far away are days of stress free life
Of living a day, a night without strife
Going a day not wanting something more
...

Weep softly now, beautiful angel
Take confidence in my heart
Cry, now, into my shoulder dear
But, please don't quickly depart
...

Perhaps I'm not yet on the paths once tread
Perhaps it seems like miles stand between
At least I'm getting back to where I've been
Alive once more, learning from time once dead
...

Slate grey sky over an overcast heart
A new day dawning somewhere in the world
Here, only wishing that new day would start
Instead clouds, above, unfold and unfurl
...

An odd conundrum of sorts, I suppose
Nostalgia following nostolgic thoughts
After months of this sad heart being fraught
And my mind thinking thoughts nobody knows
...
