A Soulish Hurt
It causes my soul to ache,
When I look over our land.
I see hatred among men.
It causes my soul to ache,
When I hear of war and rumors of war.
When I see mothers against their daughters,
Fathers against their sons,
It causes my soul to ache.
When I see children with not enough food to eat;
Mothers are rearing their children alone.
Father have left their homes.
It causes my soul to ache,
Airplanes fly into buildings.
There is an increase in of violence in our schools;
Love has retired from our churches.
It causes my soul to ache,
When I see how drugs and alcohol are destroying our youth.
When it seems as though injustice is on the rampage,
Touching the lives of the innocent,
It causes my soul to ache.
A soulish hurt....
Will the Child Walk
Will the child walk?
Some children crawl longer than others.
Should we rush the process?
Giving his legs time to grow stronger,
As he pulls up with those things that seem most steady.
Making his blance sure,
As someone provides support,
As they watch near-by.
As he take his first steps,
As his confidence builds,
As he sees he able,
Please give the child time;
Later he will run...

Thomas has come to grips with his true purpose for life in which he is so proud. It all has been a great miracle. He has been called to be a writer not just for his home town but to the nations. That has an exciting feel to the ear as well as to his heart. Thomas was summoned to be a writer about twelve years ago, but he did not understand his call. While sitting in the presences of God, Pastor Christopher Hunt called him from the audience and gave him a word of knowledge. Pastor Hunt asked him if he wrote or if he wrote songs. Thomas responded, “No, I sing a little.” Pastor Hunt went on to say, “I see you holding a pad and pen, in the Spirit.” He also said, “God said that you will make a wealthy living writing.” Then ten years later, Pastor Kenneth Kelly confirmed what was told to him ten years earlier. God has said that Thomas will write to many nations, several times. Therefore, Thomas has five books pending for publication: As Sleeping Talents Awake, volumes 1&2, The Mud Cloth, God Touched and God Breathed, and Raped by Separation and Divorce.
Thomas has been named among the 200 better poets for 2003, 2004, and 2005. He has been listed among Who’s Who with the International Library of Poetry.
