On this Sunday I serve my Lord
His ways are true
His love is reward
I knew as a boy he saved my soul
gave me life
made me whole
His love is everything
my heart has changed
In him is forgiveness
my future arranged
God's plan was perfect
His Word was sent
to redeem our souls
our death to prevent
our way to heaven
is through his Son,
His blood covers all
and
is
N-E-V-E-R U-N-D-O-N-E.

adventure, child, fantasy, hero, imagination, princess, sweet love,
Once upon a time a long long time ago
Prince Aaron was riding his unicorn
When he met his precious princess
In the enchanted forests of the Ottawa Valley
And saved her from flying fiery dragons
He was so strong valiant and brave
Thus started a romance that would last a lifetime
One day they would throw the wedding of the century
But for now the prince needed to go to sleep
And give in to the dream land of elves and faeries
As mommy continues to read his bedtime story

Peace is not just the absence of war
Peace is the noblest goal to work for
Peace between mother and father, sister and brother
Peace between friends and strangers, and all the others
***********
Consider Aaron, the High Priest of Old
Who brought enemies together, so bold
To love peace, to pursue it, was Aaron's creed
Love of his fellow man, his greatest deed
He was Moses' older brother, yet humble, down-to-earth
His burning quest for peace the measure of his worth
*************
Peace needs step aside for Truth, some say
I say, True Peace ~ for Truth lights the way

loss, sympathylove, perspective,
God called for you untimely,
Six and a half years have passed.
But I can still remember,
The lovely time I saw you last.
You was a welcomed surprise,
On May 15th, 2002.
But then for some reason,
The good Lord summoned you.
A feeling I can’t explain,
The letting go of a son.
He will always be our child,
We love and miss you Aaron.

brother, i love you,
i am the wolf
in the middle of three
a gemini by nature
between the young and old
the middle of the road
i walk
alone
but always connected
to the pack
of three
minus me
a distant howl
brings me
home

death, family,
My father's older brother
Passed away at 95.
That's 40 more years than
His younger sibling was alive.
My father never lived to meet
His grandkids or to know
The joy that such relationships
Allow to bloom and grow.
My uncle, though, had much more time
To travel, live and learn
But sadly, from his children
He got nothing in return.
Estranged from both (not by his choice)
He, like my father, missed
Connecting with the family
From which he was dismissed.
Yet Uncle Aaron had the love
Of others; I am one
Who'll mourn his death much more
Than both his daughter and his son.

Falling Leaves
Falling leaves touching the ground softly.
Why can’t love be more like falling leaves?
But when they fell on me,
They knocked me off my feet,
And all I could see was you leaving me
And falling leaves.
Falling leaves falling hard on me.
Why is love mean like falling leaves?
And all I can see is you leaving me
And falling leaves.
Falling leaves
Touching the ground softly.
Why can’t love be
More like falling leaves?

Is there anything too hard for Him
The God that made an axe head swim
Who healed a blind man with some mud
And made the rod of Aaron bud
He led His people through the sea
And drowned the pursuing enemy
He fed five thousand with a prayer
And caused the Holy Veil to tear
Because of Jesus we enter in
The Most Holy Place without sin
And meet with Yahweh face to face
Due to Christ’s abundant grace
Of all the miracles God has done
This surely is the greatest one.

courage, death, loss, love, sad,
Inevitably, tears of love, of sorrow,
tears that stem from my heart, flow
whenever I think of your sacrifice,
the ultimate payment of a high price.
You were a principled, brave man
who refused to budge from your plan,
one that would shake a nation, the world!
Watching the horror left my soul whirled,
shattered, shaken, sad. You deserved
better than your fate which all unnerved.
Thoughtful you are even though you’re dead,
asking permission to have your ashes spread,
if the citizens would allow your last request:
in a free Palestine, liberated after conquest.

Oh, my boyfriend-on-demand
I am filled with hope that I may dry your tears of mountain dew.
As my fists fall from its grip, I am reminded of your squirmy nerdy body.
In the hushed, I listen for the last sounds of pee missing the toilet.
My heated Mad Face breathes inside my hardened soul.
I wait in the kitchen for your Ugly Head so that we may break up as one, Mad Face to Mad Face; in search of the glorious breakup, it's almost sensual saying the final goodbye of love.

tribute,
My cool and cultured uncle
Loved the theater, opera, art.
He opened up my eyes to worlds
That tapped into my heart.
In neighborhoods I never knew
He settled and he thrived.
His travels proved that from such trips
I shouldn’t be deprived.
He rose above his setbacks
With both confidence and grace
And every new experience
He’d conquer and embrace.
The yin to his kid brother’s yang
(That brother was my dad),
I treasured him as counter
To the growing up I had.
If we’re in luck, we love our folks
But also get to share
An aunt or uncle, giving life
A dash of extra flair.
