  • My Fractured Mind

    I lost my mind you seeYes, it happened to me Twas a score and threeYears ago, since I began my misery I was struck down in my primeIt happened in an instant of time One day I woke up hearing voicesMy mind was in pieces Visual hallucinations followed soonI was now a loon I was…

  • My Journey to the Mountain

    Leaving the warmth of my homeI set outEarly in the morningSunriseA 6 day trekUp and back down the mountainIt’s late DecemberSnow is 3 feet deepGood thing I have snow shoesMy pack is 30 pounds of suppliesI have Ol’ RedMy .44 Magnum lever action rifle with attached scopeThe stock is red cedar woodPlenty of game to…

  • Into the Deep Woods

    Above is a living canopyIt shrouds meOnly a fraction of light do I seeInto the deep woods I go I wonder at the mighty oakGreen moss covers the trunkIt is tranquility and peace I seekInto the deep woods I go Sunlight dances in the trees aboveI spot a lone doveI’m reminded of God’s loveInto the…

  • Alleluia, He is risen!

    Just outside of JerusalemTook place the greatest event of all timeA supreme act so sublime ‘Twas a hot afternoonOn that blessed hill of CalvaryWhere Christ died to set men free Christ’s suffering was a perfect atonementAn expiationFor all our sin On that rocky soil of GolgothaDid Jesus’ blood flowHe endured more than any man could…

  • A Spring Journey

    The rain falls gently downCovering hills of green and brownThe air smells fresh and newLike early morning dew A songbird chirps a sweet melodyIt seems to recognize meI love being connected to natureThere is nothing greater Observing God’s glorious creationFills me with elationAll this was made for manFollowing God’s master plan We must be good…

  • My Broken Mind

    I am crazy and barking madI’m quite insaneThis is my sad refrain At the turn of the millennium‘Twas a score and threeSince I lost my sanity Now my days are troubledFilled with pain and woeWe truly reap what we sow My thoughts are speeding pastIt’s a superluminal raceI can’t keep up the pace Delusions and…

  • Thoughts on a Sunny Day

    Woe is me From happiness I doth flee Time races past I’m a ship without a mast The days are dark and filled with pain Will I ever be sane Days turn into years Who can erase my fears I cling to hope and pray Of a future happy day For now I’ll bide my…
