Weight of Sin




Heavy as sin,

Trusting nothing, no one,

Never more than a distant fog,

Secreting the promises,

Fading into the yesterdays,

Stirring stars, shimmering

Resting on the night, breathless

As daybreak and just as busy,

Trembling with feelings,

Intimate and gracious, like a prayer…


Thick words, nouns and verbs,

Imagining a poem – a verse,

A vision of yesterday’s wishes

A beauty that can’t be envisioned

A whisper to the spirit, so intimate

Poetry in the soul, weaving warmth,

Coloring hope…


Dense as the forest, trees

Alive like a silence – bubbling up…

In gentle streams, careless leaves

Dancing through the moments,

Hastening to fill the silence with a gentle

That never leaves the woodsy warmth,

Timber trails and details,

Shadows falling on the moments,

Healing, listening, penning …

Portraits of penance, remembering…


Sickening breathes of dread,

Deathlike grief, growing in the quiet

Risking the night, burning

Glowing like starlight, echoing

Through the melancholy,

Touching hearts with flames

Feelings focused on forever…


Destined to dream,

Hardened hearts appeal to grace,

Will there ever be the chance…

To grieve, to simply grieve,

To be – just be… am I deceived by the darkness,

Cheated by the lost years,

Betrayed by the knowing that comes…

To those who hear the voice of the trees,

The singing of the wind, the dance

In the leaves, expressing their gentleness…

With graceful tears, dew – caressing

Kissing away the moonlight and inviting

Sun’s crisp, new light…


Alive, like the senses, a poem

Promises to portray the promises,

The aching, the inspirations

Awakening the spirit, cooling the fears,

Calming every angry tear, all the colors

Of light reflected in the life…

Abiding in the heart who knows,

Just knows…


Love will win despite the weight of sin.

Yes, love will forgive and forgive and forgive,

Again and again… saving, this plan…

From the One who made a way through the pain,

The One who gave sinners a second chance,

The One who stirs up the light of day,

The One who abides in the soul who believes…

He is the answer to sin’s heavy descent.

He is the answer to all the faith we can claim.

He is risen and sin isn’t given the upper hand.

Finally, because of Him, we’re absolved from our failures.

We can reach beyond this life, into an eternity without strife!


Thank God for His light… His endless love

The promise of forever in His presence,

Where we will always know joy and peace,

The wonder of life that never ends, life…

That has not even one sin – life eternal!
