There you were a sight to behold,
quietly sleeping, in shimmering folds.
No heart to disturb your precious rest,
I left you lying there in a faded red dress.
...
Forgiveness, a heartfelt decision.
The clearing of one’s heart without remission.
A voice from deep within, contemplates,
removal of festered thoughts of sin.
...
It was a cool night with a slight drizzle in the air.
I stood at the hilltop and was in awe while standing there.
In the distance a rainbow formed, colors beautiful and bright.
I was amazed at this extraordinary awesome sight.
...
The early morning dew caressed petals
of garden flowers, allowing them to
hold their tiny heads toward the sky.
...
I do not walk alone
for I’m covered by his blood.
He walks with me and talks with me.
My face shines for all to see
...
Oh happy days, the snow fell over-night,
we have a white Christmas in our sight.
Only a few more days and nights,
Christmas will shine bright of white.
...
I’m grateful Lord that you gave your only son to me.
I’m grateful Lord that I have two eyes in which to see
I’m grateful Lord that I have a loving family
I’m grateful Lord that you love me unconditionally
...
We shall dance the night away,
no matter what people say.
Secret places we have found,
in your arms I’m bound.
...
Father God, I come to you again this morning to ask for your
help. Lord one of poem hunters precious writers David Harris
is in a hospital bed after having several small strokes. I thank
you Father for not allowing the big one to touch him.
...
I had a dream, a pleasant dream,
of a place filled with lush green grass.
A place with crystal running falls,
with trees and mountains so very tall.
...
You took me by surprise, when you picked me up.
Massaging my neck with such gentle strokes.
You moved your hands so softly,
Slowly caressing my cool naked body.
...
Pining for a much better quality of life,
Opened to great suffering and pain.
Violence and hate, society's distain.
Every step seems a step in the wrong direction.
...
Father, first of all know how much I love you and appreciate you
in my life. Father you never leave me, always there to see me
through. This week Father you were ever present in not only my
life but that of my daughter and I thank you for what you did for
...
On the wild side, she lives,
no love in her heart to give.
She walks the streets of Calgary.
Eyes protrude with deep dark circles,
...
A place to rest one’s body and soul,
to put life’s worries on temporary hold.
A time to pray to the good Lord above,
and ask for His un-con-di-tion-al Love.
...
We see difference,
we see hate.
Go to school, discriminate.
Fight the enemy, hide the scars.
...
Father today I want to pray for all the different people in the world. People that may not be the best looking, or have eyes that bulge, teeth that point, big ears or crippled joints. People of colour, from the very dark to palest of pale, the little people, the big people. Anyone that is different Lord, today is their day and for them I pray.
Father, please take the narrow minded, the bully's and name callers to task. Teach them to look beyond the facial masks and disfigured bodies, teach them to see what is truly real, to discover how truly beautilful these people are. Show them Lord how much these wonderful people contrilbute to the world.
...
Grow and double it did,
Costing more than just a few quid.
A massive disheveled confusion,
certainly not a complex illusion.
...
Butterfly visits
Momentarily seeks home
everlasting peace
...

(375) Faded Red Dress
There you were a sight to behold,
quietly sleeping, in shimmering folds.
No heart to disturb your precious rest,
I left you lying there in a faded red dress.
Dream my darling dream as only you can
listen to the song birds, hold them in your hand
I'll take a walk several blocks away,
When I return we'll start our day.
beautiful morning, bright and clear,
a glimpse of your shadow mystically near.
Dream my darling dream as only you can
Listen to the song birds, hold them in your hand
Your body laid still, no breathing came.
Fell to my knees and called out your name.
You left me that morning in a faded red dress.
Dreams of a future never will be blessed.
Dream my darling dream as only you can
Listen to the song birds, hold them in your hand
Now all I have left are the sweet memories,
of a beautiful woman, who composed my heart.
I cry every night as my hands firmly press,
the ruffles so sheer, of that faded red dress.
Dream my darling dream as only you can
Listen to the song birds, hold them in your hand.
A lady poet with a heart and a fine pen. t x
