Shattered
It’s a passionate surrender
The face has no name
It fell by the wayside
But a story, just the same
Hiding behind a handsome mask
Dreams that were shattered

The magnetic field
She travelled
Over two thousand miles
Away
From us . . .
It’s too simple-minded

The first one
In the midst
Of a quiet
So simple,
but sufficient,
Another day unfolds . . .

He Lets Me
He lets me
sleep in
while he heads off to work.
He lets me
try new recipes,
and eats whatever I come up with.

Drifters
Drifters are kind of non-essential.
Don't really have a purpose,
no destination.
But when you see a bunch of them
together
Heading in the same direction--

The Curtain
The Curtain
There's a glorious rain
falling outside our kitchen window.
It's not quite a Wall of Water,
but certainly, it's a Curtain of it.
The drops are so huge

The poems we each take the time to write about ordinary moments of sweet, or troubling, insights represent the pieces of the rainbow's innumerable colors that others can find courage and inspiration from.
Whether you are a scientist or a mailman, "finding a special dime' on the sidewalk is often the message that inspires others.

Looks and sounds like the beginning of a great song! It has a lot of heart and sounds real. Keep writing lyrics and play with the music to the lyrics till it sounds just right.

Everyone Needs Jesus
Verse 1
When you ask people how they’re doing, most will tell you that they’re good.
But when you ask them about Jesus, they’ll act like they’ve misunderstood.
Too concerned about their problems, and all the stress that this creates.
And not concerned enough about their future…their salvation…and their faith.
Verse 2
I can’t help but wonder, as I watch the daily news.
What kind of spell are these kids under? What makes them do the things they do?
One thing I think is certain, there’s a broken family.
With no Fatherly influence and no relationship with Jesus…can lead to tragedy.
Verse 3
Doesn’t matter who you are or where you’re from.
Doesn’t matter about your past, or the things you’ve done.
The Lord is good and will forgive anyone.
So just come, just come. Everyone needs Jesus.
Verse 4
People go about their daily lives ignoring responsibility
But what a child really needs is love and security
When children are ignored, they will often go astray.
And we’re only left to pick up the pieces…and wonder why it just increases. Because everyone…yes everyone…needs Jesus.
Outlude
Everyone, everyone needs Jesus. Everyone, everyone needs Jesus
Doesn’t matter who you are, or where you’re from. Everyone, everyone needs Jesus.
Doesn’t matter about your past, or what you’ve done. Everyone needs Jesus.
Everyone needs Jesus.

It's a gorgeous poem that might grab the eyes of readers if configured as suggested below:
It’s a passionate surrender -
The face has no name,
It fell by the wayside.
But a story, just the same
Hiding behind a handsome mask.
Dreams that were shattered
As the hands hit the glass,
It’s a passionate surrender
That face with no name
Reaches back to the sadness
From whence it came
Either way, it's a keeper. If you decide to play with the format a bit you can probably
