Help

Eyes closed 

Head bowed 

Hands clasped 

Knees touching the ground 

Prayers raised high 

That's why we are hopeful 

All the time

Because we know... 

Where are hope comes from 

Love always,  Esha <3

Competition

Move past the competition with ease and grace 

There are no competitors in a one man race 

There is no fear here 

Your presence can not be replaced

Because you were put in place by God 

Think it not strange 

Though some may see it as odd 

You were choose for a reason to walk a path 

That many can not follow 

Some follow ambitions that are vain and hollow 

But your faith will persevere

Let Christ be the light to your footsteps

Hold your head high 

You will dance on water 

You will walk on baby blue sky 

Love always, Esha <3

Lust for Money

Happiness doesn't start with money. Silver and gold doesn't satisfy the soul. Covered in gift wrap and tied with a little bow. Yet and still it fails to cover and heal the lack that people never show. Cash works for simple things like gas, rent and purchasing a wedding ring. But it can never buy love. It provides all the shiny objects we can think of... Let the light bounce off surfaces and twinkle in dim eyes. But it never penetrates the darkness inside. It's just the luster of money. 

Love always, Esha  <3

Failing Words

Our words fall short 

They collapse before I love you 

Breaking like a vase hitting the floor 

We wonder bout the meaning be hide it all.. 

How to find the closeness of connection? 

Without stuttering in the moment when we receive an urgent call 

Only to realize that at times we are a bit too harsh on ourselves

On cloudy days we all need a bit of help

Love always, Esha

Something More

Check out my podcast Hope Speaks to hear the reading of this poem and more.

Oftentimes we judge the book by the cover. So we don't read it and never get to the precious information inside. Failing to read the forward. Ignoring the author's bio. Going past the parts that pertain to the index. Thinking what book of value can I reject next? The eyes bypass the context. Attempting to select the best thing but choosing according to the flesh. Scrolling through eBooks hoping to find deeper subtext but always coming up short. Look for easy reads in a library full of complicated stories. Running from grace while a closed heart secretly searches for the Lord. Why are we alive? What do we suffer long for? Questioning minds wonder... A lonely soul implores that we read for the pleasure of finding something MORE. 



Love always, Esha  <3

Small Thought: It will

It may not make sense now. But one day when the dust has settled and silent words have been spoken, it will

Love always, Esha <3

Peaceful Moments

It's okay now. The tears have created something beautiful. My time for happiness has arrived the the blossoming of fresh flowers in April and May. Sad days have been washed away. And peaceful moments are here to stay. That's why it's okay.

Love always, Esha
