cuz I’m riding the wave riding the wave with you
Cuz I’m riding the wave riding the wave with you
Let me take your hand
Let me show you how to stand
And stay youuuuuuu
in whatever you dooooo
whatever wave you rideeee
I’ll be side by side with youuuu
Whatever tide may come
you and I we’ll run
Towards the prizeeee
Closer together
lovers forwverrrr
Best friends
it never ends
It only gets better
with time
Cuz we’re riding the wave, riding the wave with you
Music to my ears
happy tears
a fine beat
a sweet melody
smiles, sways, close my eyes
feel that joy come to rise
music is a gift to our souls
we hear something good
& crave more, using it as a tool
to regulate our joy levels
when we feel disheveled
we have music to hear
Even better we get to share
the good stuff
& spread that musical joy
to the ones we love
& care for
I will live and not die
I will learn how to thrive
In the unknowns and to be’s
He’s the only one I need
You are truer than true
No one is more important than you
Yahweh is for today
Tomorrow and longer term
I’ve got so much to learn
From his tenderness
He takes my hearts mess
And wraps it like a bow
Shows me where to sow
I will live and not die
I will learn how to thrive
The unknowns do not scare me
I take courage, under His wing
That’s where I look and see
The beauty
Of what He’s doing
And will continue to do
I will live and not die
My joy, in Him
authenticity is key
but what is it
how do you know
when you hit the gold
of being real
keepin it genuine
cuz that’s what’s we need
no more filter
no more mask
how do we achieve
the task of creating safety for everybody
where they feel free to show up brokenness and all
still welcomed, loved, and beloved
wouldn’t that be cool?
building some glad to be togetherness
is one tool
that can change guarded to open hearted
that can change fear to drawing near
that can change water into wine
bringing new life
dining together
feasting on joy with eachother
Sometimes writing hits differently when it’s poetry!
Writing poetry might just be the exact outlet your brain needs to function its best & healthiest, in return, providing greater space for joyfully connecting with self, God, & others.
“God would you give me spiritual vision to see the mission of what you’re calling me to
not gonna lie, this is a trial sometimes I don’t know if I can do
But in you, I am strengthened, in you, you are my source
you revive me, my capacity is lengthened
your genuine grace I see
I can do days on days of this
Bring it on if that’s what it takes
As long as I have you to show me new ways
To move, groove, and ride the wave
Trial me all day, I’m not gonna cave
Cuz your love sustains
Even adds new membranes
In ways I need to succeed
In this mission, vision, & reality I think you gave
& if it’s true, I’ve got no better choice
Than to ride the wave with you
I’m finally surfin with you
Surfin on your peace
Surfin on your joy
Surfin on your love
May it be so for others, too”

the day he gave
for us to rest in the warmth
of his arms
a slow morning
a spontaneous afternoon
a candle lit dinner
it always seems to end too soon
we are growing
learning how to rest
to be His children
is truly the best
A God who designed us
to be filled up on Him
He’s perfect, fun, creative
It’s the biggest win

Shabbat we will live from
Together, we experience

“nothing will stop you”
from pursuing me, all eternity
it is your prophetic destiny
enjoy and share, like you do
full schedule
many friends
loving people
it’s not a a trend
It’s a way of life
that breeds joy and light
but in my own might
I become worn
but I get torn
because people
waiting to be loved
the needs are great
the resource is few
so I try to be two of me
but that can’t possibly be
cuz God made me one
He says rest
I’ll take care of other’s stress
you need only be still
Go play
Go create
Go enjoy my playground
nature is the world’s renown
of beauty, strength, and opportunity
to spend time with the majesty
of all creation
Go play, Kailey
imagine, dream,
let me remind you, of who you are
my wild child, full of adventure
never let up
just let me fill your cup
enjoy, and spend time with me
cuz I love you
Let’s get equipped on our relational circuitry.

Love affair
To be His Bride
I can wade through any tide
I can love wide
and sit side by side with danger
and not be overcome
Because my lover won
My heart
Long ago
There’s no stopping his daughter
from becoming
Who she’s made to be
Loved, redeemed, free
I belong to the one who made me
Fearfully, wonderfully, chosen
His affirmations of me are woven
in my inner being
through my mind
I hear His voice
“you’re one of a kind”
Daughter, friend, lover
You start a trend
on true identity
looking to me
as the one to show you
Who you are
Those scars you have
They’re lovely
They tell a story
of strength, resilience, victory
The growth you’ve done
Is preparation for what’s to come
I will not stop the good work
till its complete in you
On the day I’m coming through
to make all things new
Daughtership
It’s true
You’re mine
I am yours
I am secure with you
We are forerunners
For His glory
We are
Sons and Daughters
For His name
Loved, cherished, delighted in
With Him we win
Our biggest battles
Land mines, temptations, sin
No comparison to being on the “in”
With creator, designer
The one who made us
We can trust in everyway
He’s here to stay
Not goin anywhere
He says draw near
I’m with you
Thru and thru
We fight together
To learn freedom, joy, peace, and love
We build the kingdom of God
On earth as it is in heaven
We aint messin
This is real
This is truth
It’s time for you
To be the best version of yourself, too
True identity
Sons and daughters
Find your best self
Here, with the father
He loves you
You’re made to shine, too
Let’s do this, together

why do we loose childlikeness when we do adult things?
we’re not meant to loose it, yet if we don’t choose it, the work swing runs hard, & our inner child get’s marred
sorta lost it once, but it came back more true,
& if you’ve lost it, not late for a do over, it’s in you
freedom, love, adventure, and to belong, my hope for all, please come along
the God who created us, is one we can trust, for goodness, safety, peace, and joy
he’s the one who designed us, let us enjoy
the work of his hands, is beautiful
he designed you wonderfully, too
cmon let’s be childlike, the world needs you

Joy bonding is the way to go
Fear bonding is a blow
The health of relationships
Is dependent on our awareness
It’s time to slow down & go to town on reflection
Am I creating joyful connections or fearful bonds?
You’re made to be a joy maker, not a joy stealer
In our perfect designs, who we’re created to be, we help set others free
With love, with joy, with peace, with goodness to share, with abundance & generosity
You’re portion is meant to be sharing the things that are good, right, and true
Let’s keep this going & help make broken things newww!
It starts with relationship & how you interact
Let’s take time to counteract fear with love, fear with joy
Cmon we can grow together & watch this garden of goodness flourish
A hole you stumble down
Until you hit the bottom
And can only hear the sound
Of despair, an emptying, numbness
You are broken
You are worn
Fatigue moves through your veins
The will to live is dwindling
Yet the way out of the pit
is to climb up
How tho? When will to exist ceases?
Wounded you are
It is time for rescue
That life line, that voice that says
You do not have to do this alone anymore
There are hands extending a ladder
From the top of the pit, life awaits
Offering Steps towards wholeness
Standing in the gap
Making effort to help you back
To where you’re made to be
Shooting for the stars
& life, full of color
One step at a time they say
One good habit, One small change
Becomes investment over time
We will climb out the pit of depression, together
One step at a time
The steps are like a ladder
Each new habit
takes you out of the internal cage
It moves you up a step
And day by day, you’re getting closer
To where the light shines on you
To where hope, purpose, & brighter days shine on
You will surely see the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living, out of the pit
Depression does NOT have its last say
Your life is valuable, more precious than gold
We need you, to come alive
