The Essence Of You

I feel your power every day

You fill my soul in every way

As you hold me close

I see what matters most

We do a love dance

To celebrate our romance

You are a blessing granted

I water the seeds I planted

You make me smile

Even laugh a little while

You help me stand

With one touch of your hand

You reveal what’s in stone

You never leave me alone

You fill my space

With mercy and grace

You give me strength

Whenever we talk at length

You’ve turned me around

Put me on solid ground

You’ve given me a home

Where my soul can roam

And you’ve made me see

What’s truly meant to be

You make me look ahead

Without an ounce of dread

You lift me up

You fill my cup

You give me moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

You share every journey

Meant just for me only

You’ve removed all doubt

That things will work out

I look into your eyes

And see a wonderful surprise

You are the light

I follow day and night

You fill my core

Before you offer me more

You’ve changed my view

With the things you do

You are the purpose

I see lying at the surface

I look at heaven above

Then see nothing but love

It’s the essence of you

A Talk With God

I had a talk with God

It made my day

I saw how He made a way

We talked about the purpose

I saw lying at the surface

All the dreams

That make me burst at the seams

Building a home

Where my soul can roam

Every moment of pleasure

I cherish beyond measure

The naysayers I ignore

As He fills my core

The faith I hold

As my story is told

How faith turned me around

Then put me on solid ground

The silent prayer

That shows He’s always there

The beautiful things I see

What’s truly meant to be

All the blessings granted

The seeds I’ve planted

And how life gets better

As I embrace it to the letter

I had a talk with God

It filled another chapter

With joy and laughter

We discussed unconditional love

That comes from heaven above

What’s in stone

Why He won’t leave me alone

The steps I’ll take

All the memories I’ll make

How I let go

Of things I used to know

Life lessons learned

All the stripes I’ve earned

The encouraging word

That deserves to be heard

How faith makes me smile

Even laugh a little while

How I do it again

Knowing with faith I’ll win

It isn’t odd

That I had a talk with God

Precious Moments

Holding you close

Like love matters most

Looking in your eyes

Then finding a wonderful surprise

Sharing a journey

Meant just for two only

Feeling a kiss

I simply can’t resist

Feeling a touch

That means so much

Sharing all my days

Relishing your loving ways

Gaining some strength

As we talk at length

Learning to rejoice

Whenever I hear your voice

Seeing your face

In just about every place

Seeing what’s in stone

Why love won’t leave me alone

Faith turning me around

Putting me on solid ground

Your love lifting me up

Then filling my cup

Faith removing all doubt

That God will work things out

Love filling the home

Where our souls can roam

Filling every chapter

With joy and laughter

Feeling brand new

After seeing what you can do

Enjoying moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

Surviving every storm

Breaking every norm

Learning what to ignore

As you fill my core

Receiving a new name

After God removes my shame

Feeling your power

Hour after hour

Seeing beautiful things

Feeling the joy life brings

Your love making me smile

Even laugh a little while

Hanging on the word

That deserves to be heard

Are precious moments
