The ripples of our peace will follow us
as we encourage each other,
covering
our world, with a beauty
long forgotten.

A New Beginning
In the course of our victory, our puzzle completed,
compassion must reign
humanity flowing
in our veins,
as we each become
a new beginning.

We Find Ourselves Connected
Our tragedies don’t always make us better warriors,
don’t always make us stronger
having our wings singed,
and faith pulled forcibly from our hearts.
But we do become more human
as we see our brothers
our sisters, struggling
somehow
we know the scars
as we find ourselves connected
in the fight.

A Mothers Day Blessing
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!
May all mothers be blessed today.
May God continue to bless your relationships with your children, and give you the strength to teach the good, and right things. May you always be blessings to each other.
And for all the millions of women, unable to have children and yet pray that they can someday, may you receive comfort in knowing that you are loved, and not forgotten.
And finally to all women fighting cancer or some other horrible illness, may you have the courage to remain positive. You are loved. We do hope and pray for healing.
May we always honor mothers, today and every day.
Amen.

Progressives
It is strange sometimes, sleeping in their camp,
but I understand the fight.
Not wanting just one group, always in control
especially as a child cries for food,
in Brooklyn
and a Grandmother in Detroit
can’t afford her medicine.

My Faith IX
Our prophecies and theologies don’t matter nearly as much,
as the love we carry, or don’t carry
in our hearts.

As I Walk Through This Forest
As I walk through this forest my God,
I thank You for Your peace, and I lift up
the poor that need healthcare,
the refugees that need freedom,
and Father in heaven, please protect
the earth. May You keep us
from imploding with hate
and greed.
Amen.
