He promised never to leave our side,
Though fog may veil the trail with deep despair,
And make it seem as though He does not bide -
Yet reach in faith, lift up your hands in prayer.
You’ll find His faithful Hand is always near,
Though life is full of shifting, stormy seas.
In Him alone, our lasting hope is clear;
So, place your life in Christ’s sure Hands with ease.
For Christ in us - the hope of glory shines,
We journey on toward that radiant place,
A city bright where God’s own light aligns,
And Heaven beams with joy none can erase.
No force can steal the joy that waits above -
Our happy home, secured by endless love.

The Big Bang sound vibrates in the universal core,
pulsates in harmony with the concerto of the creator.
The elements of His presence is ingrained in our souls,
interconnected by the common threads of awareness.
Everything crafted drifts in the stream of continuum
that cascades with the music of love in our hearts.
By one universal melodic chord we all are bound,
from one cosmic harp all the prime rhythms ripple.
The heavenly infinite network of unique oneness
encrypts the unifying divine algorithm of our being.
Suffused with unbound flash of the godly galaxy
our souls perceive the universal acuity of divinity.
As the karmic design aligns with the absolute
the pristine petals of the awakened souls unfurl,
blossoming the heavenly flower of love.
In its fragrance floats the grandeur of His grace.
In the sacred sanctum of timeless tranquility,
embraced by the seamless sky of His benevolence,
the liberated souls merge with the devout wholeness,
flies free impelled by the effervescence of salvation.

You're one of the reasons why the smile sees
You're stare is the one who gives me peace
Holding hands while the silent meet
The ambience is so light cause you're one of the pieces
The unplanned is better than the planned
You're such a beautiful, unexpected bond
The invisible string gets connected in the hand
The eyes meet - talk and understand
Every time we're together, our laughter aligns,
We play and do silly things most nights.
The jokes we share, the little stuff too,
All are proof of the love I feel for you.
There’s comfort and peace with you by my side,
No overthinking, no worries to hide.
You hold my hand, your eyes give me rest,
Your smile makes my heart feel truly blessed

The sheet is blank, and so's the mind
It's hard to think it so unkind
That friend that's been with you so long
Declining now to come along
It was not always thus, and so
At times so willingly to go
It led some place you'd rather not
Wondering just how you got
From here to there and back again
But still you treat it like a friend
Sometimes one that's led astray
Sometimes the one you hope will stay
For friends are dear, we know that now
Another hand upon the plow
Another shoulder in the trace
Which pulls its weight in that hard place
Aligns us there within the race
Drops us right into that place
Where furrowed brow relaxes now
And finds the rest none can efface

When I buy paper towels,
I don’t care about the ply.
I just don’t want boring white ones
And perhaps you wonder why.
Well, a towel with a picture,
Printed on each rolled-down sheet,
Seems to brighten up my kitchen -
Same with napkins, I’d repeat.
Some have flowers, others veggies,
There are those with bright designs -
Any type of printed image
With my preference aligns.
Lately in the supermarket,
All the choices have been white.
While I looked, another customer
Agreed it wasn’t right.
It’s the little things in life
That pick me up and make my day.
Even something insignificant
Can help me feel okay.

deep within the woman in me
a coiled divine energy
sleeping waiting ready
a spiritual connection
embraces Bhairavi
goddess of Kundalini
meditation clears the path
half awake dormant
healing soothing
plugging into a universal source
through chanting mantras
through breath itself
mental peace aligns

A lady's strength, a force so divine,
Empowering others, a heart that shines.
In times of need, she stands tall and bold,
A voice for justice, her spirit unfold.
When abuse strikes, she rises with might,
A fellow lady's voice, a beacon in flight.
Together they stand, a bond so strong,
Fighting for what's right, where they belong.
Beyond the kitchen, her potential shines,
A leader, a warrior, a heart that aligns.
Not just a caregiver, but a force so grand,
Equal in strength, equal in every land.
She's not a weakness, but a power to behold,
A gift to humanity, a story to be told.
When she stands up, men take note,
A single lady, a force to promote.
So let's break the mold, let's shatter the glass,
Men can cook too, it's not just a lady's task.
Equality is key, in every single way,
Let's celebrate strength, in every single day.

Four years before George Floyd met death
Tony Timpa drew his last breath
A cop pressed a knee into his back too
Tony cried warnings, the warnings were true.
Tony was white, George was black
A knee in Tony's back wasn't a racist attack
In neither case, was killing sought
It was a bad police tactic, that cops were taught.
If we talk of George Floyd also recall David Dorn
When protests erupted, then riots were born
You can cry "no justice, no peace'
But a looter shot David, made his life cease.
David, a black man, was trying to protect a store
That too is a story we should not ignore
To some, black lives matter only if the story resonates
So many other stories buried in these United States.
Don't just care when the outrage aligns,
Think of the lives falling between the lines.

Like currents pulsing through the veins of time/
A dance of opposites so grand, so prime/
Light and shadow, day and night,
One cannot live without the other's might/
Like a battery charged with two-fold grace/
Positive hums, negative keeps pace/
Push and pull, give and take/
A cosmic rhythm none can break/
In forces unseen, in whispers divine/
God's glow, the darkness aligns/
Not in war, but in perfect decree/
A balance ordained so life may be/
We stand at the fulcrum, swayed by tide/
Yet neither force may we deride/
For love needs loss, and joy knows pain/
Sunrise must follow night's refrain/
Electric souls, tethered tight/
Charged by struggle, bathed in light/
Each spark a lesson, each burn a brand/
Forged in contrast, we understand/
So, fear not the dark, nor curse the bright/
Both must exist to give us sight/
For without the push, without the strain/
Life stands still, a hollow plane/
Let the circuit hum, let the current fly/
Embrace the balance, question why/
In paradox we thrive, in conflict we grow/
Energy flows where wisdom knows/

Purpose is at the core of your soul,
knowing what you are going to do
It aligns with all that you are
and hatches from what you believe

Midnight rides—his pulse aligns with the thunder beneath him
fingers tracing her curves polishing fire into steel.
Wind against his skin she sings beneath him once more
Saturday mornings spent bathing her shine in devotion
One last glance—wait for me—before stepping inside
his grip firm not on the world but the rhythm of her frame.
The highway fades yet she alone knows the way home
rain or shine she waits unwavering at his door
Twilight drapes them in gold two shadows stretching as one
beautiful chrome heart racing—her name dissolving into the wind.

We are born aware of our soul’s treasure.
We know we are from spirit sourced designs
and graced with faith traits far beyond measure.
These truths grow loose when spirit earth aligns.
As earth life feeds us human emotions,
we drift from truth and our hearts refashion.
Days of human ways grow false held notions.
God nudges us to reclaim His passion.
When a child, God tingle-touches our skin.
We feel otherness seeking us aware
with love seeped passions that ignite within.
We cannot name it but thrill to its flair.
Time bends us to lend us a spirit mend
for it’s when pained that we seek beyond sight.
When we strive for a spiritual blend,
it is in quiet we find truth’s bright might.

i’ve never seen out a window ~ maybe you can help describe the scene
said the blind man to Siri ~ asking her to throw light on his life’s dream
a chatbot overheard Siri’s muteness ~ and typed I see what she means
#bonus monoku#
turn your iphone on its side ~ my point of view simply aligns the screen

In twilight's glow, where words softly weave,
Two hearts entwined beneath the silver moon,
With every glance, the world begins to leave,
As time stands still, and love’s sweet song is strewn.
The gentle brush of hands, a spark ignites,
In laughter shared, the universe aligns,
With every breath, the heart takes flight,
In tender moments, destiny entwines.
Through storms and trials, love's light will endure,
A flame that warms the coldest, darkest night,
In every challenge, we shall find a cure,
For love, my dear, makes everything feel right.
So let us dance beneath the stars above,
In every heartbeat, know this truth: we love.

Ice aligns us for a stretch, witness to
This furrow of tears in me that Winter falls with you
Our footprints press for assurance in the snow
But will with this night lead out and go
So the hearth that warms the outside of the window
Be beneath your skin and spread my heartache's glow
On you, darling — on you. Will you remember
This heart as another passing Winter?
And to our season's mum
Too old within our sun
Now a clothed morning bartering —
'Lest the green clover under also be seen, melting.
