The path is clean,
But is shut.
Im asleep.
Im awake.
I want to breath,
But I cant.
Now I can.
The pillbox was on the drawer.
Now its on the floor.
Was it the moon who dropped it?
I do not know.
The moon looks nice.
Im thirsty.
So I walk.
And I wait.
And I walk.
Then I drink,
And I drink,
And I drink.
Was it the vodka?
Was it the drugs?
Or was it just the kids,
Or husband,
And son.
Or was the water crystal?
My heart beats.
Then stops.
The blood goes through,
Then clots,
Then goes.
Then stays.
My eyes are closed,
Then open.
They remain open.
I look out the window.
The sun is up,
So i can see,
Im still alive.
So much for insomnia,
Good news for sun service.

Poetry: Sunrise service
The day has begun as dawn, the light of God fills my heart
With every breath of air such a great way for the day to
Does not every morning
resurrect the sun?
The hymns of birdsong
raise it from the grave
rolling away the tombstone
of darkness.
Mountain peaks bleed into the shadowed sky,
The only contrast is the stars, set so high.
At the tip of the day, light comes
by Gary Maclean
It’s early in the morn
The sun’s rays not yet trailing
The misty dark atmosphere
My eyesight near failing
I stumble
This morning I sit alone
Not in the Lord’s building
Among pews of worshipers
And alters where an educated man leads
