These times shall occur,
Oft wanted so,
A loving touch
A celestial glow.
Eyes that look
Deep into despair,
To carry the burden,
My heart cannot bear.

These times shall occur,
Oft wanted so,
A loving touch
A celestial glow.
Eyes that look

To carry the burden,
My heart cannot bear.
Rick Stassi (c) 2011-2022
Clinging on to
wings of grief.
Fading, falling,
Autumn Leaf.
If I should bear a trifle more,
I fear I’d burst
to crystalline hoar.
Longing outward to
guardian gaze,
on deeper waters
soon to laze
to know then
as already known,
in my Father’s love
I’m never alone.
(c) 2021 Rick Stassi
Poised in moonlight,
confident of the coming dawn.
The sun rolls ever westward
followed by sorrowful souls
crying in the despair of the postmodern
world peering over the horizon
with a hope of renewal.
Ultimate untethered freedom
is not freedom at all
but rather rules abounding with
near impossible obedience.
Lament those who cannot see
the dilution of one truth –
the moral decay
and sweat of many
gods vying for dominance.
Behold there is
an unwavering absolute.
He is alive and smiles
at His children who
pass on the toils of the flesh
to fall on their knees
and pray to the God
who is Absolute
and the cornerstone of
all morality through His Spirit
to souls seeking and persevering
in One Love.
(c) 2020 Rick Stassi
A moment without God
The amber hue
of our inward vision
is mired in
doubt.
Flee
to greener leas
of godly peace
to wisdom in
waters deep
and love serene.

“Buttercups and Daisies” Cameron 1881
Seek the sight of
HE whose eyes
penetrate our sorrow.
Finding those times
of self-disdain
permeated from deep inside-
painting the ugliness
we see in the glass.
For thus is an
ill-gotten plan
to destroy and draw
us way from the hope
that His sight
will show us,
through a prism
of divine light
passing through
a tear on our cheek,
a beautifully made
child with hope
and love for
all time.
HE is Risen
(c) 2020 Rick Stassi
Within the core of my humble heart,
Desiring to be set apart.
When pure white dove does alight,
Born of God’s one true light.

sleepiness comes
to heavy eyes.
graying horizon
whispers retreat
as glowing sun
toils through
lingering clouds.
i welcome night
to rest again
and dream about
rustling wind.

Beautiful day,
hold me tight.
Show me birds
in high blue flight.
Show me bare branches
once clothed in green.
Show me fields of
waves serene.
Help me look beyond
things i can touch.
To see God’s eyes,
I love so much.

Away the rushing water sends,
Beckoned limits crushing ends.
Tumult stirs me in my sleep,
Drowning, falling, abysmal deep.
For just a moment if thoughts surmise,
Sudden hope shall draw my eyes.
Off on horizon’s razor line,
Penetrating light of eternal shine
Comforting call surrounds in peace
As God Himself instills release.
