Angels
waking dream
I grasp at gossamer wings
fleeting angel

Sleep No More
flimsy wind
your candle glows to dim
on the whimsical threshold
of love…
the darkest side
2
on leafy green parchment
your story unfolds, glittering
to conclude
on a bare earth
one with the dust
not even ashes
grey as death
can seal the gaping holes
of your bullet riddled body
ash to ash
dust to dust
3
sleep no more
the hand that sheds
innocent blood
the blood you took
from her virginity
sinking your fangs in
to draw life
her essence
to feed your misplaced basest instincts
on the altar of her love
you desecrate
with booms of your gun
a soul is snuffed
hers…
kill and thou shall be killed
sleep no more
Celestine Nudanu – 16/09/2020
Rest in Perfect Peace, Barbara Tommie

Dancing Angels
velvet night
how loud my praise
in tones of silence
carried across the heavens
dancing angels

My son Cedric penned this poem and I just had to post it here.
Miracle
Is my life ending?
I lie on my bed
My mind in turmoil
I try to the best of my ability
But I still can’t shake off this feeling
That something can go wrong
If only I can turn back the wheels of time
I will make it right
2
I do not go through this alone
Many others feel the same anxiety
Only I am a little less apprehensive
Because there is a sliver of light penetrating this darkness
Believing in the Divine Being that keeps me moving
Believing that a miracle will come my way
The day of reckoning has come upon me

Echo of Silence
to the end
that my hallelujahs
rise up to you
favour me O Lord

New Life in Christ
there’s so much to say
words fail me
this wondrous gift
a chance to breathe
undeserved
new life

Forest Walk
forest walk
dew-drenched blossoms

Distress
in my distress
I seek your face
beyond the blue vastness
a whisper, just a breeze
will do
for this soul on fire

Living Water
a droplet of water
as if from the branches
soothing my parched soul
spring of living water
a covenant
that I thirst no more
