1. Still Colorful

You’re a cumulus cloud calmly
awaiting your crown of rainbow.

Marvelous as a tornado swirling
atop a caterpillar’s schemes.

You coalesce a sky that doesn’t
bow to your every whim.

The earth withstands rain.
Cry your crown of colored dreams.

It’s your time.

2. Still Divine

As you stand still, faith
weighs like a gentile giant.

When you take a step it forces
footprints in the sidewalk.

You’re crumbling concrete
to get to where you’re going.

That’s what it means to be God’s kin.

3. Still Slaying (Giants)

You are the rock hurled
from the slingshot
of a child of God.

Slaying Goliaths
for the tribes yet to rise.

Entering warzones
armed with sticks and stones

Hurling hope.

4. Still Needed

Welcome this poem
as the forehead kiss

your father forgot
on a night needed most

Smile that smile
that coaxes tears
from the first man
you’ve loved.

Like that kiss, you
are still needed.

5. Still Eden (Remember)

Your intent to grow
inspired God

to plant seeds
into ready soil
to reap the forests

fixed by your roots
over time…
