Flourishing Love

28.09.2019 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

Small glances
small steps
small decisions
small hundreds and thousands
of love risks,
scattered confetti memories
that have lead you
to this greater affection,
in the rings
placed on your fingers,
an infinity of
gold metal dots
connecting in a circle
symbols of marriage celebration
time sealed and stretching
to your future vision together.

We honour your love
honour your togetherness
honour your individual uniqueness
honour your marriage sealed in Christ.

May you
Discover fun and laughter
smiles and hugs,
Discover great small moments
of love poured on, turned on,
growing on.

Starting Thoughts: Marriage is beautiful step after many small decisions to create connection and love. But growth in love and honour for each other does not stop there. You are now on the most exciting human journey of life.

Value

20.09.2019 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

Like discovering
a precious pearl in the mud
A precious gem in the rubbish,
A precious diamond in the rough,
Seek the precious
Change the culture,
Bring Favour
See the valuable
Add value,
Add truth,
Bring faith
Create a Treasury of love
A Reality of real love,
Speaking life
Finding good
Declaring what God sees
Calling Future into the present.

Starting Thoughts: How precious is Life and even more is the fact that this precious we discover is a simple reflection of the value - preciousness - of God and what He has done for us.

Werewolf

01.05.2018 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

Why should I
have to wander your
shadows and claws,
struggle to avoid narcissistic
bully words or
passive aggressive smiles,
your dry rot under
painted decorations,
the glued antagonistic cracks
in your facade,
turning sneers
cutting chains.
That is long old me.

Instead,
Would I enjoy the now
with a special lady,
car window wound down
fresh autumn air
playing my hair
spilling the music
of sunshine though mind,
smiling woman
of many partnered years
relaxed beside,
her relationship with me
soft shared intimacy
of cancer facing,
child-rearing
Shouting and forgiveness,
cutting words
and deep hugs,
comfortable couple silences,
third-two years
rainstorms and sunshine spread,
symbolised by
holding hands
that have found
each other afresh in bed,
acknowledged in the glances
over glasses
across the couch
where we both sit
reading books,
watching T.V.
facebooking
but aware of our
whispering room years
echoed of love.
We enjoy the other's soul
but don’t take
for granted,
mostly...

Prompt
A lifetime of love with someone.. moments of how I see it.

Werewolf. Marriage, love and relationship.

Love Is

15.11.2014 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

Love is
both heart and mind
passion
decision,
Love is holding hands
in sunshine
in hard times.

Love is quiet
A good morning smile
A look of praise
A caring, holding,
A crying together.

Love is powerful
Patient,
Quick to forgive
Slow to anger
Strong in respect
for each other.
Love is humour
Laughter in moments shared
Joy in a future combined
Love is honour
Placing priority in the other
Love is time
spent chatting,
revealing secrets
Open honesty
Just being there.

Love is … twenty second
hugs with my best friend,

Love God
Love you.

Starter Thoughts: How can love stand the test of time? How can we be really in love? Perspectives on love for marriage.

Marriage and Love Poem Spoken Word for church serivce

Can I?

30.09.2012 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word |Seeker Written by: W Grieve

Can I
Have someone
see deep?
me,
The hidden real
The faked real?

Chameleon - thousand shades
Camouflage dirt
Concealing pain
Capable indifference
Covering smiles
Cracked mirror.

Mindside
I silent inner scream,
Sacrificed life
for inner dark uncomfortable.
Hidden life
in the midst of many.

Where can I trust?
Where can I belong?
Where can I sing?
Where can I be?

Prompt
Where can we turn? Who can we trust? What do we try to hide?

25th

27.08.2009 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word |Seeker Written by: W Grieve

Blue green bay mirrored
to your eyes
seeing in them
Sounds of our past
from "yes"to "I do"
times of passion
dreams together
laughter and stress
worship and mess

Lady in Red
breeze
in beauty

I love
the way we know
each other
the guessed thoughts
the respect for each
others talents

I love
sharing time
holding hands
on sandy beaches
seated in chairs
on river banks
reading in baches
then and now
living vows.

Starting Thoughts: Celebrating a life with of 25 years marriage with my beautiful wife. Love spending time with her.

Marriage Dance

25.09.1985 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word |Seeker Written by: W Grieve

We rejoice and delight with you
your unity and affection
enjoying and praising your love
with this time of
eating, drinking, dancing,
laughing and sharing.

Our thoughts are in the songs
gentle unspoken words
kindred conversations,
quiet prayers.
Moments of ceremony and celebration.

We’ve given you to each other
to the fragrance
of a journey
sought after
but found by few,
a love founded deep
in the friendship
and mysteries of Christ,
sharing the fruit
of past and present
and the joy of tomorrow together,
Your love sealed
in the eternal knowledge and care
of the living God.

We thankfully witness
the beauty of
your binding love.

We bless you
in your vision of life together.

Starting Thoughts: A formal declaration of love in front of friends and family, a vow to have vision of life together. Marriage is a wonderful dance of two people into the future based on a commitment to love and connect.
