Close of Day
silence captures a moment in time—
an owl sounds the close of day,
a hush falls over the darkening sky
and the world closes its eyes to sleep.

BECAUSE HE LOVES ME (A Song of Priceless Love) — Welcome to Poetry Cottage
Into the garden He went Shed as it were great tears of blood And He shed a drop for me Shed a drop in anguish for me Carried His cross Which cut into bleeding wounds And He bore more pain for me In love bore pain and sickness for me Raised in humiliation Was scorned, […]

What More Can a Man Want?
Poem and Photograph by Chrissy at Riverside Peace
Keeper of My Lighthouse
Keeper of my lighthouse, please
Shine in me today.
Standing firm on God, my Rock,
May I never stray.
I Am the solid Rock on which you stand.
Clouds of fear impair my sight,
Doubt upon the source—
Trying hard to do what’s right,
Help me stay on course.
I will always be there to light your way.
Keeper of my lighthouse, know
You are in control;
Lead me from this gloom of night—
Compass for my soul.
I will steer thee beyond your darkest night.
Like ships off course, I wander
Onto darkened reef;
Lord, steer me safely yonder—
Bring me back from grief.
I will lead if you will only follow.
Keeper of my lighthouse, you
Bathe me in your light;
Radiance makes straight my path—
Shine with all your might.
I will never leave thee nor forsake thee.
Through this storm of dreadful pain,
Waves consume my life;
Bring me through my tempest strain—
Lead me from this strife.
I will guide thee through every storm of life.
Keeper of my lighthouse, come!
Let your bright light shine,
Casting doubts and fears away—
Save this life of mine.
Child, I Am the Keeper of your lighthouse

Glimpses of His Glory – the poem
Spring has replaced the winter’s frosty dawn;
Birds return with sounds reclaimed—
Their brilliant colours grace the skies.
Honey-suckle scent lingers in the air!
Buds burst open to reveal their hidden treasure
Amid the shades of a rainbow, flowers flourish.
Butterflies dance from blossom to bloom,
Trees announce the season with tender leaves—
Like fingers, they point towards the sky.
The distant roar of an aircraft engine
Threatens to steal the tranquil peace—
I smile at the sunshine and capture its warmth.
O Lord, this is a new day!
I breathe in your freshness
And walk in your truth;
I stand in your righteousness,
Kneel in your holy presence,
And take in a glimpse of your glory.

I can’t imagine this universe without being able to see God’s beauty all around me. There’s nothing more beautiful than God’s creation. It’s as much a part of me as my Saviour himself. Everything he created was to His will and glory, and nothing was made by accident.
