LOST PIECES In shadows deep, where hearts do roam,There dwells a woman, not alone.With gentle hands and soothing grace,She seeks out broken souls to embrace.A healer born, with empathy’s touch,She mends the wounded, broken and such.But in her quest to make them whole,She loses pieces of her soul.Each broken heart she tries to mend,Leaves her…

exodus In pages old, a tale unfolds,Of Exodus, a story bold.From slavery’s chains, a people cried,Their hopes to freedom’s call allied.Moses, a shepherd, chosen true,To lead his kin, to guide them through.With staff in hand and faith ablaze,He faced Pharaoh’s daunting gaze.Ten plagues descended, each a sign,Of divine power, of grand design.Yet stubborn Pharaoh held…

genesis When God did speak, the void was filled with light,He shaped the heavens, spread stars across the sky.With whispered breath, He crafted day and night,And set the sun and moon to rise on high.The waters parted, lands began to form,Green fields and mountains, valleys lush and wide.He breathed on dust, gave life in earthly…

HE IS Elohim, Creator, in the beginning,Spoke the stars into their spinning.Adonai, Lord of all, sovereign might,Guiding us through darkest night.Jehovah Jireh, Provider true,In every need, He sees us through.El Shaddai, Almighty One,Under His wings, the battle’s won.Jehovah Rapha, Healer near,Mending hearts, wiping every tear.El Roi, God who sees,In hidden places, our silent pleas.Jehovah Shalom,…

THE WIND’S WHISPER The wind doth whisper secrets soft and low,Through rustling leaves and in the swaying grass.Its voice, a breath, a murmur’s gentle flow,Reveals the tales of ages that did pass.It whispers of the seas and distant lands,Of mountains high and valleys deep below.Of ancient trees and shifting desert sands,And mysteries the stars alone…

JUST A DREAM In midnight’s realm where shadows dance and sway,I found myself ensnared in dark’s embrace.A dream, a nightmare, where the light gave way,To realms of terror, where I lost my grace.In twisted alleys of the mind’s abyss,I wandered lost, with fear my constant guide.Each step I took, a plunge into the abyss,Where specters…
