My Imaginary Garden

In my garden are colorful flowers
And paths that you can walk for hours.
Hanging from a tree is a garden swing.
Alongside it runs a rocky stream.
There are also pockets of lush, green lawn
And a nook with a bench for sitting on.
It’s a place where kids can play
In their happy, carefree way.
Here I love to think and write
Enjoying the view within my sight.

Don’t Waste the Day

Every sunrise you see
Every new day you greet
Is a gift from above
Raining down with love
Don’t waste the day away
Be thankful when you pray
Make a difference in someone’s life
Bitterness cuts like a knife
Live with love and not hate
Destiny and not fate
Look back with no regret
Let peace reign and don’t fret
Look for the good and not the bad
Make someone else’s heart glad
Don’t hold back cautiously
Make today a memory

My Heart is Beating to a Different Drum

Sometimes I feel I’m just bidding time
Waiting for my life to unfold like a rhyme
Waiting for the day to sing a new song
But the waiting is taking way too long

There are many adventures that I have lived
And many more that God’s gonna give
So, I’m not stopping. My life’s just begun
Into God’s great plans I’ll run

My heart is beating to a different drum
A creative soul can’t fit into a sum
Like a color on canvas never seen before
Waiting for God to open that door
Knocking ‘till my knuckles are numb
‘Till God opens heaven and blesses me some

Can you hear it beating loud and clear?
It’s the sound of hope; faith versus fear

I See You (God Sees You)

When you’re all alone in your room

And your heart is filled with gloom

I see you

When you’re just one in the crowd

And you have nothing to make you proud

I see you

When you find friends who turn out fake

And all you do is give and they just take

I see you

When you know that you did good

But find that it’s misunderstood

I see you

Every time you give a sigh

Every time you ask yourself why

Every time that you cry

I see you
