Wedding Poem for My Daughter - spring

My daughter and her husband met at a  dance-
You danced
      into each other’s lives
    with a holding of hands
     and a marriage of eyes;
       two separate people
          moving as one
    discovering the beauty
     of what you’d become.
    Romance would blossom
     as flowers in the spring,
   commitment would follow
      with vows and a ring,
       entwining together
     as closer you’re drawn
 may your hearts move in union
         to God’s loving song.

We Believe - Easter

To He,
who made the song of spring,
we believe
in Your transforming.
Winter bare
when growth was gone,
lives again
as comes the dawn.
Giver of all life anew
coming from the grave
it could be only You.
Bear our hope,
and see us through...
To He
who made the song of spring,
we believe
in Your transforming.

I Am Into Epic-spring

I am into epic -
where everything's about the whole.
Mundane tasks aren't challenging,
life's about the soul.
Each day is but a drizzle,
each hour no power enfolds,
capturing eternal truth
is what my heart desires to hold.
