Dialogue in the Dark

This is my world, and all the colors within

My mind gropes through her imagination seen

I’m surrounded by hues, I reach out to feel

Their radiant auras, they are so real

The sidewalks tell me, places I have to go

The wind she beckons, calling thru her soft blows

The chaos of city traffic, will it ever cease

The want to get away, I hide in the darkness, find me please

The trot over, I cross the other side of the bridge

I take in the chirpings, all in the moment seize

The gently lullaby of the boat that rocks

Savored memories, anchor them to my minds dock

My touch she tells me, so alive & green

The felt freshness, a picturesque sheen

The tastes of not knowing what you have had

The joy of sweet aromas, thru your senses clad

They say my world is all devoid of color

But how would they know

Have they experienced all I see, hour after hour

The spray of gentle waters, they show me much more

Have you gazed into my world, in all its beautiful awe

Do your eyes restrain you, by only that, that you see

I open doors for you, beyond the see of nature’s law

My blindness has not bound me, its expressions have set me free

Your Love has kept me

When the day wears on, disturbed emotions it brings

When time trickles in, the cords of melancholy it sings

When the seconds become heavier, as the moment it passes

When life mocks you, its endless farces


A troubled spirit, a journey down trodden

Fate has it, it seems, all misfortune begotten

Tears roll down, your forever companion,

A lonely one, a lonely daughter of Zion


Temptation prowls on, its pleasures so fair

Sin dances her finest, twirls a beguiling lair

Chanting in melody, charming seduction

O’ to give in, fall into her slow persuasion


A suffocated body, emotions welled up

Desperate to break free, give up this cup

Tear down my mind, body and soul

I am before Thee, a drained out begging bowl


Gentle a glance, gaze down upon me

Withered am I, unheard moan, a distressed plea

Tears no more, there’s only so much

Your Word, Your promise, a feeble hand efforts to touch


Sent down Your angels, in tender care lifted me

Gathered together, placed safely in the bosom of Thee

Sight the Cross, pinned to it all my sin, grief and cry

The world’s was taken over, what was I?


His miracle He calls, If you were the only one

On the rough tree, I’d do for you, all that was done

Long before time began, I have loved you dear

Borne within Myself, I have cried your every tear


Your love for me is eternal, more than my life can behold

Your moments planned for me, in Your likeness to mould

Sheltered and protected, from life’s trial & strife

Your promise never to forsake, Your love has kept me.

The best sweethearts

I should wonder, and stop before I start

But then again, why again, I’ve had the best sweethearts

Should I shy before I begin

Curl the smile, give way, the slow dimpled grin

I’ve been the most fortunate.. oh wait

Perhaps more have they been, (I chuckle)

I watch you happy, flowing on guided by beautiful fate

I’ve prayed nothing less, in your life blessings sparkle

Amazing two, cherished relationships so few,

Was I fortunate to have the ‘bestest’ of loves

A rose petal kissed by soft, early morning dew

No endings perched in a ring, turtle doves

We’ve turned backed looked at images drawn in sands

We’ve smiled as the waves reached over

Took away time from our joined hands

Linger & cherish, the extra moment… we hover

Hearts of gold, He made them, dearer He holds

An upset me, over again, Father a story of old

I’ll question You, for what reason & need

Planted each time, new blooms from a love seed

How can you be, all in one, the most wonderful

The Master favored you, set you apart

And to Him I’m ever grateful,

Let you steal my heart

Au Revoir GE

A journey called GE, a decade it has been

A pathway of opportunities, sometimes thru thick & lean

A mountain of learning’s I’ve enveloped within me close

I walk into a new world, as GE can I pose?

I pray I’ll do justice, for all it has taught,

I’ll look for the comfort, the years had brought

Then I gaze at new horizons, confident as can be,

Over my shoulder, are the years of you GE

My leaders, mentors, managers & guides

In your many teachings security, surely I stride

You’ve let me be, sometimes error and fall

Yet knowing your there, allowed me to face it all

My teams, my friends, my cherished few

Added all to life’s beauty colors & hue

Life’s choicest God has blessed me with

In these beautiful years, He has let me, you meet

I embark a journey, of the other side green

My memories are mine, cocooned within

Shaped & molded, I am for the world to see

Many a credit given, to a place called GE

I bid fare-well, it’s a hard bye to say

If I’ve hurt you, then do forgive I pray

God’s will manifest in all you do

Shine as diamonds, as He has planned for you

Well Wishes Friend

For the countless hours spent with me
for laughter that went far beyond it meant to be
for cherished moments for a wonderful year
Keeping me away from my lonely fear

For being one so special, as special can be
I close my eyes, your warmth and love i see
Good natured, your blessed with a heart of gold
Many joys and love, may the future unfold

A new journey you have embarked upon
Accomplished life, for this reason gone
Success befriend you in every path
Everything you hold dear, be cherished in your heart
