Open Doors
If the walls could speak..
Look! you live in a fortress
with stone walls built up high
the workmanship is old
the roof lets in the sky
there is treasure in the mortar
if it all falls in
the slightest gap a way
for new life to begin
a record of your past
lies hidden here within
the mansion in the sky
is quite unlike these walls
Its Caretaker welcomes you and I
and would never let it fall.
Memoir
Companions on the Journey
I don’t have the strength to carry
I’ll walk beside, stride and leap
I’ve been up this way before
and I know the path is steep
If the darkness overwhelms you
take comfort in One and all
who are ready here to steady you
and would hate to see you fall.

The higher up the mountain, the more treacherous the path.

Our lives are like a bottomless well
From which I yield buckets of
Inspiration.
I would never utter an unkind word
For fear of poisoning the source
My only hope is that I give
As much in return
Or at least not run it dry
For if I did
I would humbly say
Goodbye.

Coal River Valley
cold dark hard stone / compressed ages / crazy love / diamond shine.
Piled dry parched / under barren sky / delinquint spark rests / beside ignite.
Illuminable reside / rest surrender / hide.
Fuel pile high / heavy dry / coerce embers / elated fly.
Buried ash Wednesday / live breathe / fanned funneled / exalted hearth high.
Relentless Westerly / battered antique bones / breathe weary / rugged stone hill.
Shines its testament / from stain glass sill / to living room throne / cast iron will.
