Sudden Kindness

Sudden Kindness

You spilled the milk! she sharply said

And I, clumsy little bit of a girl that I am

Hung my head and nodded in guilty silence

And that's all there is! she rebuked me further.

Nodding again, I felt a big tear form in my eye

Slide down my face and fall into the small white puddle

I could never do anything right no matter how hard I tried

That much had been established.

Feeling her anger, I sought to run but could not move

My bare feet were frozen to the spot

My tears, falling like rain now and blurring my vision

I did not see her moving towards me.

There, there, she said in a soothing tone

As she took me into her arms and smoothed back my hair

It's alright, it's only milk, it's not gold. We'll go buy more

And I was so surprised by her sudden kindness that I began to weep.

let that devil be

let that devil be



perpetrating storm
she lied with sunshine
flattering with a look
that belied her cold disdain


patronizing innocence
she became my heart's betrayer
falling in with clear skies
she became my drowning rain


truth was not one of her gifts
nor was it in her nature
sincerity's beguiling dance
a trap I dropped into


 red rose scent upon her skin
it hid the smell of danger
luscious lips and snake skinned hips
and dark clouds in the blue


seducing like a sideshow
in the eyes of curiosity
in the latter days of childhood
before the boy became the man


I threw my money at her feet
and entered at her bidding
left my soul at her front door
and I've not seen it again


flashing pretty darkness
the morning fled forever
redemption's promise blazed and burned
and the rays of sun were gone


swallowing me like a sugary treat
she wiped her hands and mouth
threw me in with a thousand men
and her lair became my home


perpetrating storm
she lied with sunshine
her hands of sin are never full
and now they're holding me


if you should hear her honeyed voice
don't listen to her calling
turn your ears from her sweet song
and let that devil be.

Resistance

Resistance

I almost burned my tongue when I kissed you
The heat was hotter than the noonday sun
Raising my eyes to meet yours with their brown
The color of warm, sweet honey with a twinkle of mischief
I couldn't resist the tasting
I couldn't resist the wanting
I couldn't resist the wildness
That flooded through me like a colt set loose
On a green, green field in a sun drenched month of May
But I pulled back
And hurt crept into your beautiful eyes
And puzzlement frowned at me using your face
Tossing a lock of hair off your forehead, you tilted back
Till all I could see was your chin and all I could hear
Was your sigh
Then you shrugged and hunched your shoulders
And walked away, crunching the gravel with angry shoes
Silently, I watched you go, willing you to turn back
And when you did, that sweet, sweet mouth
And those honey brown eyes
Were as cold as ice.

Shelter Me

    Shelter Me

    Shelter me, O Lord, I pray

    In the brightness of the day

    In the darkness of the night

    Say you'll never leave my sight.

    Father me when I am small

    And more so when I'm grown and tall

    For it is then, I need you most

    For grown ups oft have no one close.

    Call me when I stray too far

    Always tell me where you are

    Guide my feet back on the path

    And heal my heart with your sweet laugh.

   Teach me how to trust you more

   Walk on faith to reach the shore

   Hold my head up and not kowtow

  When Evil tries to make me bow.

 Show me how your own heart feels

 And let me know that love is real

 Let me learn to care and serve

 That love to those who don't deserve.

In your image I was made

Till sin made you fast fade away

Cleanse me from my shame and sin

And in your image, make me again.

Lord, I need you every hour

Your anointing, your great power

Let me see me through your eyes

And separate me from the lies.

For all my days and all my years

Lord, cleanse me with your righteous tears

Wash me in your Holy blood

And let your words become my food.

This I ask this very night

Take my wrongs and make them right

Let me feel safe where I may roam

And know with you, I'm always home.

I do not need this world of dirt

With all it's heaviness and hurt

It's beauty great from sea to sea

(But it's arms can never shelter me.)

And one day soon, from here I'll rise

To flee the Earth and it's blue skies

Go home to Glory, our Father's land

Forever in your presence, stand.

It can't come too soon, can't come too soon

I don't need the sun, don't need the moon

Only one thing can't be replaced:

The love that shines on your dear face.

And if I've that, I'll need no more

No bed, no table, no house, no door

And I will tell the world it's true

Lord, I don't need anything but You.

War of the Angels

Drums of Gaugamela

War of the Angels

War broke out in Heaven

Before and After the Cross

Hell broke in because of men

And all it seemed was lost.

Battle cries screamed through the skies

And days turned into nights

Darkened sun and blood red moon

And men cried for the Light.

Angels, angels, everywhere

Fighting to the death

Planets crashed and planets died

And men fought to draw breath.

Fluffy clouds hid monstrous things

The sea's roar swept the land

And every bit of bread and wine

Was taken from man's hand.

Hope, it seemed was gone and deemed

To be a fairy tale

The demons raised their glasses high

To toast the King of Hell.

Onward, onward, ghoul and troll

Marched through the atmosphere

Reigning terror on the Earth

And feasting on men's fear.

No light, no light could mortals find

As earthquakes split the city

Of Babylon and Bethlehem

And no one showed them pity.

Armor bright and silver gleemed

Upon the angels' breasts

And darkened foe with sword of woe

Refused to give them rest.

The fight raged on through history

Through Ages of mankind

And still today, the army holds sway

Waiting for the Sign.

The God of War, the God of Peace

They meet on heavenly ground

Their armies fight to victory win

And till then, will not stand down.

What is coming to Earth soon as told to Kevin
