In memory of Martha K. Newton and Amanda P. Newton
and then I looked around.....
I stepped back and breath
Taking each breath like there's no more.

Beautiful faces
From every shade of color
From every span of the globe
From every walk of life
From every generation
From every faith,
From all types of places
From every nook and cranny
Of every place,
These are the beautiful faces
Of God's rain... – by Kenneth R. Jenkins | 17 Views added 4 years ago

No smile
To smile back at you
to make you laugh
No eyes to see
That smile of yours.
No lips
No lips to say how I feel.
Imagine if you will
A world
A world without a face
A gesture
A notion or something
From you to say
How I... – by Kenneth R. Jenkins | 136 Views added 4 years ago

I am not pretty
I am not fat,
I am not tall enough,
Too short,
To thin,
My hair's not long enough
My hair's too short
Not pretty.
Not looking my best
I am ugly!

Too this
I am not that

Say it with soul
Say it loud
Then say it bold.
Don't let up
Just say it clear
Say it with soul.

memory of the children of South Africa
Freedom!
Lifted out of the ashes and into a river of hope
A river of joy
A river of peace.

And children die because of

The night train moves
Quickly in the night's air
And the noise from the train
Keeps a steady beat lugging home.

Sweet inspiration from other poets
And their words expressed
To make me write these lines even now.... – by Kenneth R. Jenkins | 66 Views added 4 years ago

If my people could hear God's voice
And obey the voice of the Lord
For my people

Even more and more

And the night is cool as it can be
As you and I are snuggled

Gray clouds
Casting skies
Painted over blue skies
Looking like suddenly rain
But I think God had other plans.
Somewhere in His big brain
He may do something else
To these dark skies
And transform it into
Maybe
Just maybe something... – by Kenneth R. Jenkins | 22 Views added 4 years ago
