Poetry

Sparrow’s sorrow

May 18, 2026

By Phoenix Rylan Wilder

Oh lord, Im a alone, 

Getting caught up in my phone

Not in feeling, but in seeing

Ideas ruminating in the night,

With the moon being my only light,

But it’s the reflection of the sun that will guide,

With a fire consuming destroying my pride

Live my life, fear no more, 

No more strife from the love I pour,

Give and take for we have been given

Offered free, we have said we’ve claimed

Till greed consumes like you’re plagued,

Consumed in the heart no time left to spare

Leaving a brother in despair,

Oh We worry about our life

but forget about the sparrow,

Worry about the i and if we die

Worried about our sorrow

For how we might survive tomorrow

Though we travelled through the desert

He gave us bread, split the rock for water

But he made his son and then his daughter

Image from image reflection of reflection

So that we may have affection

Experience beyond knowledge and thought

What has been Where we know in part 

Thinking through sin is just a flaming dart

For face-to-face, water and glass

For at last, I see clear

To the horizon evermore past


Just a collection of some of my poetry/spoken word 

A lot of this is literal, but also has a lot of it is symbolism which is metaphorical so take lightly 


Black and white

Black and white

Living life, they say when it rains it is grey

But I see the Earth giving life it’s green 

To help us flourish to be seen 

Food from the ground, the substance so clean

ABBA thank you, Jah is the way, Jireh my provider, yahweh, giving praise to Allah 

Everything feels so small yes I won’t fall

Lord as my witness, angels are protecting me

Learning how to be set free 

knowing that I’m forgiven just living 

Like it’s smooth sailing on the water

Fire from above in the wind 

Oh how the tree gives life, 

Providing fruit in time,

Rooted deep like I’m grounded

This is what I Founded

Love so deep makes me complete

Its the breath living in me


Knowing

By phoenix Rylan Wilder

You don’t have to preach

My lesson in your life so teach

You just have to be

And everyone will see

Love that you believe 

Inside me inside you

Knowing what is true

Though the valley

You comfort me with your presence 

Bring earth up to heaven

Bring heaven down to earth

I faced a lot of dirt  

But I was made from the dirt

Chose good through all the hurt

Yes it me, but its you

Help me pursue 

you oh Lord

Swift tongue like a sword

They don’t want us speaking no more

Im not kneeling on the floor

im standing proud in the light 

Feeling the love oh it so right

We say bite my tongue

But I’m flipping tables at the temple

Crafting words like a stencil 

So perfect it’s almost heavenly

Seven sins so deadly

I don’t lust, i just love

I find i have no pride inside 

Be envious, i got no envy

Because carrying that is heavy

Leading to be angry full of wrath 

Taking all your energy you have 

Till your lazy like a sloth 

Loathing in your bed 

Wishing you had more instead

Take what you want

I will give as needed

Needing a lot is just greed

Fill your desires until you’re full

Gluttony ways on the heart

Just wait, you’ll know

From emotions to food, you’ll see the attack

Wishing you could go back

But the path is long and narrow

Don’t worry for God got you like the sparrow

He always hits the mark, bow and arrow

Watch the Giants fall from clouds so tall

From my charity from the clarity

Oh the joy i got from the times I forgot

Now I got peace with who I’m meant to be

I see me I see you and I see the trees

So patiently 

waiting for the storm to turn into a breeze

All the kindness we show 

The goodness we have

The faithfulness, I know

Gentle love show us 

Self-control 

Modest and true

King of king

Lord of lords

God of gods

Forever and ever 


Waters and clouds

By Phoenix Rylan Wilder

April 4, 2026

Who walked on water?

Who comes on clouds?

The peace I found I feel so proud

waters and waves are still 

the winds are not blowing

Flowing like a gentle breeze

Flowing down a gentle stream

Fired up with the inspiration

That feeling of the sensation

I knew all along 

now showing in my presentation

With everything that’s resonating

I showed the love that I’ve been given

Oh How the love is still living 

Within me and all of you 

gotta find it one day

For God of gods i give praise

For the King of kings i give praise

For Lord of lords i give praise 

For the messages He gives that saves

So I know none but what from Him

I know all is skewed by sin

When will we know we are forgiven?

From my soul with fire 

Everything i know i was made from the dirt

From the feelings flowing giving life

Destroying over time, they collect till they pool

Overflows till it makes us look like a fool

Can’t overthink I gotta let it go 

let it rise up like the air in the head

Heaven to hell, died to rise again 

Fields i tend, the fruit I’m growing

The life I’m showing


Be-ing

Who am I supposed to be?

Im the somebody

that nobody wants to be

I’m proud of being me

Accepting everything 

From the positivity to the negativity

That made me think this is who I’m ment to be

Learning to accept the serenity 

To change the things I can 

Looking up knowing He has a plan

Even if the voices say it won’t stand

Life feels like it’s getting out of hand

Will I become a stan?

Why aren’t you writing back God?

Is it because I’m flawed?

Living a façade

Gotta trust, I’ll find myself one day

Find You who I wanna be, 

with a peace that will stay

Not living, black or white, but in the gray

Knowing what I know, m

but knowing nothing till I pass away


Titled title

By Phoenix Rylan Wilder

Mar/12-13/26

Believe everything has truth

Believe everything is not true

Mind in the matter 

Deliver me on a silver platter

Call me the mad hatter 

Moving on up in life 

Like everyone else is blind

Repeating patterns that destroy in time

Think you got strife

When you haven’t even reached the full height

Looking up in the sky

like I got the shining

Finding my full potential no I’m not suicidal

Living until I say final in the destination 

Waiting for time to tell when we see all that fell

In truth we speak, like a twig is weak

Citing mentioning incorporating the designation of collaborations of citations

Why is everyone hating?

To Love yourself is to Love everyone


Power in the words, power in the son

Power with people, power with spirt

Like my mind is flowing like air

when I walk up heaven’s stairs

Like my spirit is on fire

Electrifying to inspiring what we lack in our desiring of our designing

Like my own emotions, flow like water

Flowing, creating the up’s and down’s of a river

Waves deliver, crashing in the ocean

Like I’m molded from the earth

From dirt to birth 

to dust or ash 

Find meaning in now for few will look back

Control what was forgotten fill are desires till were full

Distracted from the goal

From everything we use to know

Now we are separated and divided to feel alone
