These are song lyrics. I wrote these back in 2006 for my son, Michael. He wanted an original song to sing for the church. I wrote this in about 10 minutes. I don’t have a recording of the music, so here is what I have: As I walk through this world that...

A poem written in 2000. This is among my favorites. You are the Great Physician, Healer of my body, soul and mind. To You, I bow in humble submission. My prayer right now is that in me you’ll find, A man that lives a life that to you is pleasing. I thank you for...

This poem is one that turned into something quite different from what I set out to write. It was written June 11, 2015. It is a story about a journey through life of a little girl who seeks what we all seek: Love returned to us. I like it and I pray that someone...
