A mirror I can ThinkHeresea
   
 


Govingly

HE is beside me

With such strength

He's there to guide me

I can be to those who need me

A reflection of HID love


Is it Lord who speaks to me?

Have I found the Trinity?

Quiet my ego.Set me free. Help me to live one with thee


At this self-of-self of breath me

At this self of say of leave me

Beyond fragment's-broken love

Lasting love from God above


I can be at self and leave me

At the exhale

Breath-in love


I can be at self and lead me

At reflection Christ-found-love


Prince of peace

Rings peace within me

At the ripples' pondered love

As this self of self in-breath me

Neath the breast at heart that beats me

At the self of say and lead me

Breathing out I leave self-gov

Hold-me-love in God above


===========================


THE WAY

The way to be patient

Is to act patiently


The way to have guts

Is to be brave


There's no magic formula

For being what you want to be

Being what you want to see

Will set you free


Do you think you don't know where to begin?

"Jesus" is good say, with essence, "thought win"

And the Good of his mind

Heavy thought on the line

With what thought

If say

Came with God from 1st day

==================================


Not a Nightmare


Pounding fist on the table

"What's the matter with you?" (yell-themed)

With a passion and a fire

(Words were not

As they first seemed)


Not with anger

But in earnest desire

He then "sed",


"What the hell are you doing?

This could be something great, instead."


later......Staring in the mirror...

"You are great" eyes sed


Walking away

I repeated

The "werds" that smile led

I could field the words-that-burdened

To fuel the fire leading le_d

(As I walked "not down" thru hallway

toward the bedroom

toward the bed)

Success will come

combination

Heart and head
