Potter Girl
You're so beautiful
Yet undefined & formless now

a purposeless potter's clay
shapeless, simple
and put away

There is one whom you know
In you, His Spirit shows
All the darkness inward-grown
And calls you out to pray

Oh, that picturesque fine one-day mourning
The Savior's death, in grave sojourning
Freed a girl from lax free-falling down
Down, down

(for Jessie) Hebrews 4:15

You put me in the best of moods
Taking my fall and all of my blues
Giving me back my springtime green
and summer's resounding woo
I almost forgot
what this was all about
almost forgot life's greatest jewel
you are so wonderful
You hold my attention even in your gloom
And put me in the best of moods
I love everything about you
You put me in the best of moods


(for Deirdre) Proverbs 3:3

Inspired by my muse (my friend, an angel from heaven), this poem was even recognized by the National Society of Poets' 2002 Convention as noteworthy, and has been recently published in the book: Letters from the Soul. Thank you Deirdre!
