Please Scroll Down For Songs, Easter Hearts

Little Boys At Recess

 

Tom -- the cat, curious george,

and ice-cream minds deep in space.

His coat glaring nature's hot forge,

"Do you wanna have a race?"

 

"Over the hill?" he points, eyes squint,

little boys -- friends nod in pleasure.

Dusty runners take grip to sprint,

up the hill -- big jean stainer.

 

The sun shines into little hearts.

The friendship courses each soul.

Their minds flash in different parts,

the speed-way trail of a tadpole.

 

Laughing boys roll down hillside,

happy to be together - well,

adult eagles wait tired inside,

little boys - deaf to the bell.

Songs

 

Rhythms flow, run around,

over and over, inside my head.

Thumps pound, beat after beat,

motions tremble, our minds dance.

Sounds engrave, scar on scar,

power of memory, holding old times.

Feelings attach, sound of souls,

hearts follow stories, sung by few.

Easter Hearts

 

Morning light

Eyelids open

Mind remembers

chocolate fun

taste of Easter.

 

First up after sunrise

Full round smiles

Little brown eggs

The search begins

yearly adventure.

 

Biblical truth scrapes

Sacred meaning

Shines bright cross

In all skies

of all who believe.

 

Eternal forgiveness

Leads the way

Inside ourselves

Our Savior gives life

through his death.
