my uncle ronnie...
i was reaching in my desk drawer in my office today to discover an email address...baron33@ something i can't remember. i knew that baron33...so familiar. my mystery blogger. and then it sank in...my uncle ronnie!
i even remember now why it's baron33. the story behind it i mean. i am sorry u. ron!
so i then re-read all your comments with these new eyes. i am always filled by how much we are alike. i get you-
and this lovely realization came on a rather gloomy day for me. it's like hearing your favorite song on the radio right after a string of bad ones and commercials.
God is good...
i think about you often. i miss you. i can't believe i didn't make the connection sooner.
i wrote this a while back...i think of you when i read it-
you are the writer and guitar player i long to be. i love you!
(some may notice i wrote this as i poured over the wizard...)

holding my guitar
holding my pen
ready for words
as i travel within

my few chords i know
with my limited words
hold candles to shape
and my voice goes unheard

i sence You are listening
waiting
in beautiful hope
to form me
to mold me
to watch me let go

bringing inspiration
to the writer
a brush to the paint
an artist is blessed
by His infinate grace

as i sit here my words
come from the heart
of my soul
it isn't my story
He wants to be told

i pray for wisdom
i pray for release
for my weary old self
wants a canvas for me

i pray for knowledge
the story is Yours
my craft is to share
in a way to allure

i pray for courage
to give You the pen
to give You the glory
as i travel within
