THE GIFT OF WORDS
In my battle with illness
I have faced years
In bed
Learned to make pain
My friend
And grew
Through dark contemplation
To reach into my conversations
With God
Reverse my fears
And my demons
Tasted
Each coming season
With the anticipation
Of His light
Where the quintessential reason
For my Love of creativity
And my giving of my life
The only way I can
With words He has given me
Through prose and poetry
Where, not only
Has my soul and spirit flourished
But found
A true voice
For my selfish self-expression
It is this
And so much more
That has lifted me
Most directly
Into the splendor
Of my Love
Of prose and poetry
And my passion
For creativity
Through the strength
That He alone
Has given me
Allowing faith
To become
A part of me....

THANK YOU C!!....you, above everyone know exactly how far I've come with my health issues...... and I have you to thank for some of it...... you inspired me to work harder to walk.... to participate rather than deal with the depression of being forced out of the world at large....... God has been a huge part too.... but... God has ALWAYS been there for me in times of crisis...... but the combination of the inspiration I get from words and the Love I receive from you & God was unstoppable!!......

My Dear Brother Poet Tony,
There were times that I denied Him
I failed to see the light
But when I asked for His understanding
He forgave me for my plight
.
Now, with all His sweetened splendor
This Phoenix is reborn
An Oath of true allegiance
To Him I've duly sworn
.
And through the Faith of my convictions
I have found the truest love
With prose and my Sweet Angel
Provided by God above
Faith Love, and Purity,
