Children

Children

To my children,
William Jr., Tiphanie,
Brandon, Joshua, Austin

You came here children,
to save a marriage,
that couldn't be saved.
You were delivered with all the hope,
humanity can bring to a new day.
You came and life was better,
the children's faces answered so many questions.
You came expecting nothing,
deserving the chances only we can give.
- You came -
- We failed -
Now we must all see,
about tomorrow.

Tiphanie, Brandon,
I'm so terribly sorry I let this happen,
please forgive me?


Love Dad

Behold, A King, Our Christ

Image
Behold, A King, Our Christ It was as foretold in folklore, the, "Greatest Story Ever Told." Behold, a light" that shines, on the "One", in the manger! Displayed in a aura of "Peace," bonded to the roots of "Love." That the "child" that was born, to a mother, that is adorned. Became as foretold in folklore, the "Greatest Story Ever Told." The "child" in that manger, His Greatest quest, has not yet? The burdens of such a King, taken upon Himself. That He has so chosen, to pay for our sin. Well, He done it, He paid it out of "Love." For that's, a true King, - Know - "He gave His Life, He gave it out of Love." | Copyright © | William Darnell Sr |  | Year Posted 2017, 2020 | Source - "Writer's, Writing Words:' being characters"

A Walk

Image
A Walk Come with me, let us take a walk. With  balmy breezes, the  bold  ground,                  willow tree,  that shades it's its. the  Standing there, strestretching s a branch.              its                                      Touch me where I ache the most. Show the least, love's The show's most. Touch me there, stay with me. Share my twilight, a memory. A shine that, warns off the heat. Turns to the dawn, sweet memory. .. Touch me there, stay with me. A sweet taste, pure memory. ... | Copyright © | William Darnell Sr. |  | All Rights Reserved  |  | Year Posted 2017, 2019 |

Autumn's Fall

Image
Autumn's Fall Two silhouettes together,  Under the light of the moon. The hooting of owls,  Are you singing a scary tune? Dark shadows fly p as t  Your arms hold me tight. With thoughts of your love,  I lose fear for the night. The pumpkin that glows,  On the steps by my door. Seems to be keeping me smiling,  Makes me long for more. The moonlight in the sky,  Shines down on the ground. Glistening the leaves,  That covers the ground. 2013 ©  William Darnell S r All rights reserved.
