Searching for Why

Searching For Why is more than a book of poetry. It is a reflection on life, faith, and love through my sixty-six years of living. It is retrospective, philosophical, and at times challenging. It speaks of those moments in life of love, heartbreaks, chaos, frustrations, and spiritual discovery that we all share. And through it all, searching for...why?"Poor choices have short term negative consequences. Bad decisions have long term negative consequences. Try to make as few poor choices and even fewer bad decisions in this life and you will do well."Ken WingateSECRETS HELDIn the deepest part of meIs the darkest part of meThat none shall ever knowThat none shall ever seeThe secrets held inside that placeThe secrets that I hideWill never see the light of dayWill still be there the day I dieDon't judge me harsh with pompous mindsDon't judge me in the leastFor within every one of usAre the secrets that we keepYou can lie to all you knowYou can lie to even youBut the secrets are still thereSo, none will know yours tooGOD ISGod is.God is notwhat men want God to be.For God is nota bull-headed he.Nor is Goda much wiser she.For God is They,The Holy Trinity,yet one Holy Deity.The Creator, Beloved, and Presencethree spirit entities.Yes, separate spirits,in perfect harmony,as They have beenall eternity.For God is spirit,not of flesh, you see.God is much morethan you or me.God is and reigns,in all Their majesty.God is everything,and is all I need.God is,is what I believe.
