The Known Invisible Mountain on Christmas Eve


The Known Invisible Mountain on Christmas Eve
By Curt Vaughn

Winter doves made of light fly through art canvas windows, as Trees sing praises in an infinite forest of outreached evergreens upon a known invisible mountain.  This solid rock is covered with snowflake prayers and surrounded by heavenly clouds.  And, shines under a ever present sun and a northern star to lead us home each and every Christmas Eve.  So, let the song birds fly from the mouths of the trees to the top of the known invisible mountain carrying our snowflake prayers and riding on winds of praise.  And, as this Christmas Day approaches; let us wrap each other in blankets made of hugs and lift our little lights to say Merry Christmas to all this year.

Always Remember


Always remember to give God Thanks
By Curt Vaughn

Tables made from words of his only son.
Passing plates engraved with grace
Always remember to give God Thanks.

Eating from praising fields his holy feast
We enjoy the little blessing of love ones
Always remember to give God Thanks.

Sweet heavenly treats not just on our plates
But from love that he gave each and everyone of us
Always remember to give God Thanks.

The day winds down as we nap away, while the children play
Oh these is a glorious day for us to
Always remember to Give God Thanks.

My attempt at writing a song take 1


This is my first attempt at writing lyrics to a song I have no musical ability but I thought I would give it a shot.
You Love Us
By Curtis Vaughn

Verse 1
You seek love and forgiveness
As the world seeks change

You seek help and compassion
As the lost seek strength

Pre-Chorus 1
But will you stop and see
When followers fall to there
Knees and cry out his name.

Chorus
Jesus you love us unconditionally
Jesus you love us universally
Jesus you love us ultimately
Through all space and time.

Verse 2
You listen for laughter and joy
As the world hears pain

You listen for opportunities and prayers
As the rest hear complaints

Pre-Chorus 2
But will you stop and listen
When followers fall to there
Knees and cry out his name.

Chorus
Jesus you love us unconditionally
Jesus you love us universally
Jesus you love us ultimately
Through all space and time.

Verse 3
You talk about love and forgiveness
As the world spreads the blame

You talk of a love never ending
As some will just never change

Pre-Chorus
But will you stop and fall to
your knees as you and
Cry out his name

Chorus
Jesus you love us unconditionally
Jesus you love us universally
Jesus you love us ultimately
Through all space and time

Bridge
It was when you came into
Our life’s that we realized

Just how great our God
Loved us from upon High

Tracks


Tracks

By Curt Vaughn

Gracious thoughts on lead clouds
Cover prayers with calculators of tokens
For future journeys up the escalator to my engine
 
My knight in invisible armor has left footprints
In my cement engine, but the footprints try to fade away,
Can they ever really disappear as long as the engine runs.

I eat at my bibles table, to gain weights of owls
While spreading the lord’s jam, on the communion bread
Our Cooking with God Collective devours every question mark

But will this bring quit time on the playground in
Our backyards, front yards, and neighbor’s fences
As long as the light can be seen through the darkness

Then your path can be seen by the dark,
So no tracks can ever be truly erased.

Harvesting Stars


Harvesting Stars

By Curt Vaughn

I ride the night sky on a blanket of fire-fly's
oh what have the stars left behind
but an ever present gaze oh my world is in such a haze.

The moment I walked into that this place.
I knew I was one step closer to that bright effervescent moon
and give me my daily bread and I can be at rest in my head?

Lets get serious for a minute and calculate
the distance I must take just to grasp the stars
from the heavens to place them next to me right here on Earth.

Oh what a harvest we could have when
dreamers like me reach beyond the village
into the ocean of all these kind souls right here and now in this place.

For God created the heavens and the Earth
therefore with his love will all truly
never be out of reach in his great universe.

My Rocket on the Crescent Moon


My Rocket on the Crescent Moon


By Curt Vaughn

Muses made of invisible musical aromas and snow cone flavors on the movie screen that are ever so tasty to eat with my dancing feet, fill me with knee bowing hope,  all the while moving me up a see through escalator towards God’s glowing crescent moon, where my prosperous blueprint of a Rocket awaits me.  

I ready my craft of art gallery flip card storytelling with whispers of attic books, wavy flashbacks, thunder clouds of worship, and chatty Sunday morning breakfast companions.  My rocket will be waiting for me on that moon ready for launch after being build by the ever-growing audience that has been clapping for me since 1980. 

Once I land I will take off into the Christmas light sky with the speed of homemade pies and tickle fights.   And I will shine overhead like that perfect cool summers concert where we sat in the grass talking and eating like chipmunks. 

Will my Rocket and I become a new muse; all I can really pray for is that my slide projector diaries of faith can be put to good use.
