    Author

    Wade Powers

    Wade grew up in Lancaster, California with a love for the written word. What started out as simple poems and predictable short stories has evolved into novels about struggles, conquest, love and death. Wade has published two other novels, "Specter of an Accident" and "Skinware" and has completed the writer's version of the hat trick with the completion of "The Resurrection Factor." Wade has also written "The Covenant Divorce Recovery Leader's Handbook" which is a tutorial for starting divorce support groups for Christians. "The Covenant Divorce Recovery Student Workbook" was written as an aid for the members of said groups and allows a measure of accountability for the students as they follow along the fifteen week course. Wade has written two books of poetry, "To My Annie" and "To My Annie Book 2" and all of his works are available at online bookstores. His website is www.yellowriter.com and he lives in Port Angeles, Washington with his wife, Annie.

      Forever Friend

      Bottle the fragrance of a cool spring rain

      Admire the sway of zephyr-blown grain

      Remember the ribbons a rare rainbow sends

      More than a lover, my forever friend

      Listen to waves crest and crash on the sand

      Serenaded by seagulls: God’s blaring band

      Mysteries known when ear gives to lend

      More than a lover, my forever friend

      Mist of the waterfall kisses your face

      Time freezes the moment-makes eternal space

      Hearts as a garden we’re willing to tend

      More than a lover, my forever friend

      The babbling brook seems to whisper your name

      Evolutionary language-waters never the same

      But you are the bedrock that helps me defend

      More than a lover, my forever friend

      Dispel all the myths of a man with a maid

      Trust our foundation, together twain laid

      My kindred spirit-no fences to mend

      More than a lover, my forever friend

      E:\JackyKun\08Aug2015\aug19\apple\272732\media\image3.jpeg

      A Place Called Each Other

      Consoling the hurt and the tears that we cried

      Extolling the eulogy for dreams that have died

      Correcting the compass with love as our guide

      In a place called each other we successfully hide

      Remember the day, my beautiful bride

      With vows and a kiss, a knot that was tied,

      Embarking together with hopes deep and wide

      In a place called each other we successfully hide

      Battered by trouble, like a tempest-torn tide

      Tossed by the storm, we’re tested and tried

      Disappointment and sorrow against which we sighed

      In a place called each other we successfully hide

      Muster forgiveness toward all who have lied

      Establish relations with those whom we’ve shied

      Long arduous process, but in grace we abide

      In a place called each other we successfully hide

      Sort out competition in which we have vied

      Victory is certain; as they say, cut-and-dried

      All in all quite exciting, like a pleasant joy-ride

      In a place called each other we successfully hide

      E:\JackyKun\08Aug2015\aug19\apple\272732\media\image4.jpeg

      Grander Design

      Ancient comparison to a rare summer day

      Justified metaphor, yet more than a play

      Beauty beyond the poet’s fine line

      Loves from a heart of grander design

      Song in the morning, coo of a dove

      Simplistic symphony from heaven above

      My spirit seeks a much purer sign

      Loves from a heart of grander design

      Fog from the ocean, logs on the fire

      Cradle in comfort and passion’s desire

      Yearn for her tenderness-the secret is mine

      Loves from a heart of grander design

      Stroking her hair, soft as the breeze
