Cry to deaf ears

What should I do
with shattered hopes
and unresponded prayers?
When is no hope,
when is no faith,
no miracles can happen.
A broken heart,
a painful cry --
Do You hear our prayer?

The day after

Punishment that I deserve
to pay for sins
to cry out loud
and drink the cup
to empty.
Will never be the same
but after dying.

Like fishing net

Look behind and see
the search and struggle.
Each point in life
a knot
So many choices --
     strings in the life's
     fishing net.

The shadow

Like leaves in Fall
Our life is fading.
A time to grow
A time to die --
leaving behind
a shadow.

Change

Captive of my things
searching in a maze
to find my soul
when knowing where it is.
How hopeless one should be
to change the road?

Black sheep

Will tears help?
Can't change the past
Can only hope the future.
But choose the moment new.
Captive in this life
I sold my soul to things.
I lost the way...
Black sheep.

The lost

The lost road --
     when there is no return.
The lost time
     when is no time ahead.
The lost soul
      when crying out to God
Is there any salvation?

The net of life

Each step, a knot in the net
Each choice like a path to the road;
there is a way to go.
Risk -- to see what will come.
Next knot
there is another choice!

Don't carry the past in your backpack
the load
more than you can take.
Pack hope, and faith, and love.
Don't carry the pain.
Forgive and let heal.
Your eyes on the road
Your heart full of hope --
share it,
give always with love.

Sunday church

Sunday morning
breaking off
from the bed.
The hustle of morning
cars coming and going
speed rushing, impatient.
The bells are all ringing.
We go to plug in!
Cross off: Church, Faith
on Sunday's To Do list.
What do you say God?

Malfunction

This shell __
my body.
Malfunction in pain.
Should be a fix
to bring back what was
going so well.

Stuff

The feeling of guilt
to have
to be in a better place.
Fruits of hard work,
however.

Too many things
stuff around, useless.
What is the value__
the meaning
of life
of being
of having,
and having too much?!

Just a hobo myself

The rain
like little drums in the window --
cold and wet.
How many tonight
under the bridge,
in a corner,
soaked card boards,
freezing rain.
While under and between
dawn blankets...
How am I better
than them?
Just a hobo myself.

Choices

So many different ways
to live - another life.
What would have been
another choice?
Less freedom,
more wisdom,
or risk.
So different __
it would have been
another life!

Empty noise

There is a sadness in my heart,
for being restless in this life.
A life for to do;
busy running.
The noise
disturbing the peace __
like a nagging rain
in the darkness of the night.

Autumn

The colors of autumn
how wonderful creation
God's delight
for our eyes.

Crisp and cold air
Sunshine
translucid yellow leaves.
There is something
to say good bye, and
see you in the Spring!

Prodigal Son

What should I do
with my talents;
if I am stuck in a place.
To know is my blame,
my sins to forgive.
Like Prodigal Son __
I beg your forgiveness,
and ask again for
one more bright chance.

Heaven's connection

The surprise, the hope, and joy
The pain, the sorrow, and grief
Mary you lived them all
to be every woman's connection
to Heaven and God.

The pain of mothers

Nothing is more precious
than little hands rising to embrace.
How happy were you Mary
cuddling your Son.
How painful seeing Him
embrace the heavy cross.
To loose him
To understand, the pain of mothers
with their children lost.

Hope

The things not known
The Hope not seen
The weakest faith
a glimpse of what could be...
Surrender in God's will
and hope against Hope.

Not meant to be

Hope
for things not yet seen,
Just let it go!
If did not come to real --
was never meant to be.

Good Friday

There is no hope in my soul
No strength to cry out loud to
         God, my Lord.
No faith, no miracles to trust in.
Just empty heart
        a barren soul
gently offered to God
as ultimate act of Love.
It is finished.
Amen.

To let go

Time cannot come back
Of all that is lost -
none will ever return.
To let it go -
       easy to say.
Like putting a burden to ground.
Accept it -- let go.
The burden of pain.

Near dawn

To hope and trust
To ask and wait
and let it go
all of old.
The pain be gone
The dawn of tomorrow
      is near...

Can you hear me?

What kind of nature in other Heavens
based on faith only.
How are your days?
What do you do?
How far or close?
When we cry out -
can you hear us?

Like little ones

Without worry
like children,
like little white dogs
      sniffing in grass and yellow flowers.
Knowing that God is in control.
To trust and hope,
        believe, and let it go!

Faith

It is not in the oil
rather is in Faith,
          in Hope, and Love
that we can find the courage
         and strength to go on.
All Saints, and all who still believe - to help us.

To find in our weakness
the limits of that Knowledge,
a glimpse of understanding.
The rest all melts in God's mercy and love.

Her voice

If I would just have
as much faith
Like the old Lady
singing from top of her lungs
in front of the Virgin
Her voice
    so loving
    so pure
    so faithful...

Like tinsel

White garments in golden

         tinsel-like margins

So pure and clean

So honored

So simple

Mother of God

            of Mercy and Grace

Hear our prayer.
