skin of crinkled cellophane

skin of crinkled cellophane
blistered skin of flesh
Color like the corona,
Above the arc, the edge,
The plane across
which we traverse,
Alive by the street...
 
life in the fabric,
The living evermore,
Ancient yet enduring,
Flesh puckered, ablaze,
Coming into view,
A metaphor of the universe,
Framed against the grass...

Touched by the water – v3

Touched by the water,
Living waters of life,
Marked by its scent,
Forever changed, transformed,
Only by God's infinite grace...
 
Raised from my ashes,
Bathed in the waters,
Drenched in Christ’s blood,
Raised with Him, forever,
In the waters of God's love...

Before the light fails

Gathering a few more shells,
Slowly walking northward,
Drinking in the sounds of the ocean,
The wind over my left shoulder,
Memories for me to treasure, 
To hold onto when I am far from the water,
Knowing this is one of my last time
On the island, on these sands
That I have loved so well...

If we die with Christ – v3

If we die with Christ,
We will rise with Him,
If we take up our cross,
We will rise with the Christ,
If we live out our calling,
We will rise on wings like eagles,
If we follow our purpose in life,
We will walk and not grow weak.
 
We will walk and not grow weak,
If we follow our purpose in life,
We will rise on wings like eagles,
If we live out our calling,
We will rise with the Christ,
If we take up our cross,
We will rise with Him,
If we die with Christ.
