i

i
want to
serve and follow
the
will of God
to cleanse thy heart and soul
who
brings me joy

me
a perfect peace

how
love
drifts
through
the
soul
while
love spins
dust into gold
Let our hearts know
what our hands shall do
and I know for sure
to embrace you more  
yet to touch your tender soul
Forevermore and nothing less
Oh, what young lovers
must do as I confess
thus to seal our faith
with serendipity and grace
enchanted with
red blue and green light
with a bit of indigo
in between them
so much so
thus to find
a quiet place to
for our love to flourish so
that we embrace
this sacred moment more
with a gentle kiss
upon your sweet lips
and surely to know
anywhere the heart must go
love
you shall not
erase me
nor
shall you
replace me
than
our
love is
inseparable
only
because
your
love
embrace me
thy
heart
like
the
sacred butterfly
is
transformed
through
the
light of God

To Shelter Thee
just
before
the
wicked storm breaks
while
young birds
clinging
with
all their might
to
the
strong stiff branches
of
the
sycamore tree
yes
we
are
the
stiff branches
that
bend and sway
but
we do not break
and
here
to
shelter thee
sweet death
be
not afraid
to
dance
upon
thy sweet grave
while
the
devil
who plays
a mean red fiddle
kindle the fire with flame
shall
dance
upon
thy sweet grave
oh lord
every break of dawn
i
shall
see
the
sunrise
in
her jasmine green eyes
and
all
the
light
have not gone
through
her
sweet smile
lord
restoreth me again
every break of dawn
when
worlds collide
like
billiards ***** provide
red blue and green
outside
with
flashes of light
inside
the
soap bubbles
collide
thus
creating
a kaleidoscope
with
another
world inside

oh lord there are so many
mountains for me to climb
if i still cry inside the line
yet I’ve turned over
every stone in my mind
yet some things are hard to find
we shall never know this time
when there are circles in my mind
yes the world is sublime
but if I still cry inside the line
oh lord when will I know
where there is to find
and maybe
the heart will sing next time
if i still cry inside the line
Jamal Upshaw Dec 2024
crying
is
the
sweet blue rain
that
cleanse the heart
from
the
spirit of God
while
the
rain flows through the heart

as long as
the
stars are shining
the
lord is
my daily bread
thus
ask
the lord
for
the
shepherd's light
to
walk by faith
and
not by sight
as long
as the spirit
moves me
as long as the
stars are shining
still
towards
the
Shephard's light
