Actually I still had two blank pages but I really wanted to start in the new notebook so I ripped the last two pages out.

		<description><![CDATA[I can almost see
the house filled with people
sharing moments of laughter
or perhaps deep discussion.
You leave the house
to sit by the sea,
Where the wind blows
and the waves crash on shore.
In that calming moment
before the multitudes gather
and You move from shore to boat,
I want to sit with You.
Perhaps I cannot
because that time is past,
but another time draws [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mwiebe.wordpress.com&blog=2273348&post=277&subd=mwiebe&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

A perfect sunny-blue sky day.
The atmosphere welcomes you
With a gentle warmth and beauty.
Fly for a moment
On the wings of an eagle,
Soar through the sky with grace
And watch the stillness of the water.
Should you by chance
Let go of the eagle’s wings
And plunge into the waters below
Suddenly breaking through the stillness.
Here you find
Your heart [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mwiebe.wordpress.com&blog=2273348&post=275&subd=mwiebe&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[She weeps bitter tears.
The world looks away
and covers its ears.
Her children are hungry.
The world knows, but always
someone else will help.
Her children are dying.
But the world cannot help,
not when the latest trend appears.
Her children are alone and afraid.
The world cares too much
about money, sex, and stature.
Their eyes, yellow with death plead.
Oh world, look away no longer

		<description><![CDATA[There at rock bottom
Curled into a ball of loneliness
I shivered with shame.
 
Some condemned me,
While others spoke comfort
Still, I found no peace.
 
Then a small ray of hope
Shines through the cobwebs of guilt,
I remember the woman of Luke seven.
 
Knowing her guilt she weeps
Washing His feet with her tears,
Drying them with her hair.
 
I cannot anoint or kiss His [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mwiebe.wordpress.com&blog=2273348&post=270&subd=mwiebe&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Change has come
With the end of winter harsh.
Hope is in the air
I feel it in this gentle breeze.
 
While the rain falls
I remember bitter tears
A shattered plate
Mirrors what I’ve tried to hide.
 
I am broken
With unfamiliar anguish,
A perplexed puzzle
With so many missing pieces.
 
The rain falls still
Gently coaxing spring’s arrival
Promising a time
Of gradual healing and renewed strength.

		<description><![CDATA[Time is a funny thing
Only not in a humorous way.
Time slips by and drags on
But never changes its pace.
 
Hangs on my left wrist
So easy to throw, yet it controls me.
Lingering with every painful flick
Of a battery powered splinter.
 
Time rests on my bookshelf 
Lurking in my restless nights.
Punctuates my pulse with uncertainty
In the soft silence of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mwiebe.wordpress.com&blog=2273348&post=265&subd=mwiebe&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[She looks up at me,
Still wearing the same expression.
Her deep unblinking green eyes 
Peek from beneath tousled brown hair.
Her lips frozen forever
Into complete silence.
 
In my arms
She is so much smaller.
Yet, it is I who has changed.
With tears I let her go,
Her lifeless-light as a feather body
Falls back into the toy box
Leaving yet another memory.

I&#8217;m tired of the old frosty man
With his white obsession.
Bring your warmth
Embrace my shivering body.
On some sandy shore
Under the sun, we&#8217;ll make love.
Then we&#8217;ll watch the sweat
Glisten off the silver moon.
The old man lingers
Kissing my cheeks with his icy lips.
I am filled with longing
To have you near me
My sweet summer.

		<description><![CDATA[I want to write
But I don’t know what.
 
She said “Write that”
Then I ask myself why.
 
The answer seems 
Only too obvious.
 
I long to connect
My words, to your heart.
 
So you can see
This small glimpse of me.
 
I yearn to capture
The essence of life on paper.
 
When words fail me
I am incomplete.
 
I want to write
At least I know why.
