All in All

All in all, everything
Each joy that comes
Every bit of brokenness
Cast it on the Lord
He hears the cries inside
While celebrating laughter

Help Along Each Other

The way the water makes a flower grow
And how the sun feeds it a warm feeling
The nutrients in the ground give it its show
These things make it sprout for seeing

Wind blows under the wings of birds above
Flying more gracefully are they now
Soaring with the wind our beloved dove
Without it, they may not know how

Roots hold fast for the tree so tall
Never moving or stirring from their spot
So that the wonderous tree will never fall
No matter how cold or how very hot

As a friend is the strength for another
They will forever help along each other

My Wise Sonnet

A seed begins with its size so small
To many it is hardly ever seen
Wants to grow and become very tall
But it is so very timid and keen

The little twigs lit with fire
Seems to me so small and weak
They have a desire to grow big and higher
But for more fuel in must go seek

There's a stream down the way
So skinny and small waiting to grow
Like it is now, it doesn't want to stay
It longs to become more so it will know

This you have now seen through my eyes
The one here who longs to become more wise
