Why is it odd to talk about God?

Why is it odd
To talk about God?
Yet people insist
To sit at their desk
In front of them stands
A statue of a fat man
To look at all day
But that’s not the way

That’s why Jesus came
So man will proclaim
A savior to help them
To be...

When the road comes to a “Y”

Driving straight for hours on I-5.
When suddenly the road comes to a “Y”
Cars in front and cars behind you
No meridian to pull over onto
No time to stop and think
Missed the sign must have blinked.

Home is less than an hour away
and that...

Why do we have Superheroes?

Everyone knows that superheroes do not exist
Young or old, man cannot resist
A fantasy of power not forsook
In cartoons and in books
in movies and in our minds
For decades we’ve kept them alive
Superheroes are a timeless trend
So if they...

It’s time to be blessed

When my life seemed to be at its worst, a neighbor said to me
Have you tried Christianity?
As I laughed out loud these words squeezed out
I don’t need to add something new to make a mess out of it too

So she handed me a Bible and a...

There’s a change taking place and it’s on my face

I have one eye bigger than the other eye
When I look in the mirror
I wonder why
It wasn’t like that before
Its noticeable now even more
There’s a change taking place
And it’s on my face

Having false teeth and a crooked nose
Watching my...

Why do we have Superheroes?

Everyone knows that superhero’s do not exist
No matter what age man cannot resist
A fantasy not overlooked
In cartoons and in books
in movies and in our minds
For decades we’ve kept them alive
A superhero of any kind
Is simply defined

I am

Written by Lori A. Powell

I am an all American white girl
Born of the human race
In the United States of America
It’s written all over my face.

 I live in Northern California
Where we keep the boys warm at night
Lover of Jesus

Stars Are Everywhere

Written by Lori A. Powell

Have you’ve ever seen a shooting star and wonder where it goes.?
Perhaps it comes here to live where we are
Stars are everywhere you know.
Stars don’t just hang in the sky and twinkle all night
They do all kinds...

The sun set into the oceans tide

The Will of the Worm

The Will of the Worm
Written by Lori A. Powell

A worm has no arms and no legs.
In case of danger he cannot run away.
No eyes to see, no ears to hear.
So he cannot tell when predators are near
no teeth to bite, no mouth to shout,
there is...

Scare the house cleaner

Big kids little kids
The prank is still the same
The target is the housecleaner
The fake bug is the game.

Open a kitchen drawer
It will be a surprise
Jump back with a little “yelp”
Poke it with a stick then realize

It’s just a fake bug...

Cats cry

I hear the cats cry
I watch him pass on by
He shows no fear or pain
His tears become the rain

Just like the hungry lion
Who swiftly walks so proud
A deceitful man will easily hunt
The weak among the crowd

Simply blinded by his instinct...
