Steady me

Steady me

Kneeling down to hear 

A faint and whispered cry 

Reaching down and drew me up 

Safely on a warm rock 

Holding me until steady enough 

Journeying  again

“ And if this were not enough”*

A clear mind and a new song to sing 

Steady me, 

Glimpse poetry by Joe Holuta

*Inspired by Psalm 40:1-3 Voice

About this poem: Steady me is a poem about coming alongside one another and carrying one another’s burdens and also, “since God cares for you, let him carry all your burdens and worries”(1 Peter 5:7).

Family does this so well! - Joe Holuta

Safely set on warm rock

“… Innocence/ carefree…”

Innocence/ carefree

A picture - years gone by

Captures the innocence of those days 

Today’s “morning – glory” of flowers 

Unfurl into full bloom 

Innocently the memory lifts the heaviness 

That years pile and press 

Photographs from a day ago 

Morning glory that hoists the soul

Grace extravagant, “mighty in battle“ 

Today again, as far gone yesterday, yesterday……..

Innocence/ carefree, Glimpse poetry by Joe Holuta

About this poem: Innocence/ carefree is a poem about family and faith. Family and faith are heroic efforts of our lives! Family comes alongside in “those moments”. Faith and family- robust and vigorous- and provides confidence as we trust God in all that concerns. -Joe Holuta
