Butterflies are Light

A butterfly chooses where to land.
Bringing light and beauty on its wings.
Light sitting, like a sunbeam.
Choosing when to leave

Help me, Lord

Memory fills the night. Help make my pain and memories light. In your arms, I find comfort. Please guide me in my days. Help me, Lord, this night.

The Trip

Challenge and wonder are along your path. Each day, a new turn will attract what you ask. Others may seek the beauty of your trail. Focus on your journey and leave the destination for last. 

 

Poems by Brent M. Jones

Song of Tonight

No rage, just light.          Embraced by the old Touched with the light    Is the new world like the old. 

Will memories die Memories of fathers Memories of families Memories of friends                    

Truth is eternal.              Things will be right        For now desire,            Desire what is right.

 

Thank You for Coming

I asked for direction
You came into my life
I hurt you, you hurt me.
I learned I was wrong

I said I was sorry
Sorry I caused harm
You listened and helped
Our lives seem improved
Thank you for coming

 

Kindness

Pure love is kindness reflected

and virtue defined

Motive hurts but the heart still rules,

Not the mind ,

Goodness still comes,

From the heart, not the mind
