Sown love seeds will sprout;
Germinating Godly fruits:-
Be in their reaping:

Well nourished and energized:-

Many reapers sought:

Is in need of your sharing:-

What a great season!
Leaves shall soon be leaving me,

But I will not be ashamed:

Teaches profound barked lessons
Of life's survival:
Despite cold tribulations,
Releaving warm leaves will come:-


Premium Member WAR AND ALLEGORICAL AWARENESS

WAR AND ALLEGORICAL AWARENESS

You can’t ignore war.
Its awareness, God allows.
Can you ignore God?!
War is like crucifixion;
We must be as assenction.

Oppression nails us.
Awareness liberates us
And empties graves.
In this awareness, let us
Fight to end today’s warring:-

Premium Member OF ALLEGORICAL SAGE TREES

OF ALLEGORICAL SAGE TREES

Oh, those sage trees,
Symbolic reflectors 
Of God’s enlightenment—
Some, a hundred-plus feet high’
Others, just as old in age:-
Throughout the seasons of the year,
These sage trees canvass life’s stroll:
Trials, tribulations, and redemptions;
Allegorically, hinting rooted thoughts
Of Jesus’s crucifixion and resurrection—
Reflecting the navigation of God
Through the seasons of lived life:
Fall, Winter, Spring, Summer:-

May the allegorical lessons
Of sage trees, forever be for us,
A living part of our divine wisdom
And sacred guidance awareness,
As we journey the daily courses
Of our life’s rising and setting suns:-
Hey, who would have ever thought,
That sage trees, often taken for granted,
Would be so rooted and solidly trunked
With such allegorical contemplations?

Premium Member AN ALLEGORICAL MATH LESSON: Rational and Irrational Numbers

AN ALLEGORICAL MATH LESSON
(Rational And Irrational Numbers)
             
              1.
Rational numbers,
And irrational numbers,
Teach many lessons:
Allegorical lessons,
On the living of our lives:- 

                2.
We must live rationally;
Living irrationally sucks:
Swallowing life’s goals:-
That teasing “pie in the sky”,
Must be assessed by squaring 
With God’s sage divine wisdom,
And His repeating guidance:-

                 3.
Thus, always strive to be
In logical reasoning
With ourselves, and with others:-
With deception all wiped out,
And all wrong things put aside,
Always seek to do what’s right:-

Premium Member TO AN ALLEGORICAL BREEZE OF WARM AIR

TO AN ALLEGORICAL BREEZE OF NATURE
(Apropos Of A Warm Breath Of Air)

A sweet summer breeze;
An aromatic delight:
God’s warm exhaled breath:-
My our world’s lungs soon be filled
With God’s inhaled peace and love.:-
Oxygenated
In God’s warmth, let’s seek building
A oneness nation:-

When I gave beggar a coin

A beggar grabbed my hand and cried for some spare change.

At first, I offered him a sweet memory of food or a tasteless sip of divine water, but he asked for money.

I had a heavy coin and gave it to him.

I wondered why he took only the money, and when he saw it, he immediately placed it in a different spot.

I asked why.

I offered you food and water—you rejected both, and now you hide the coin.

He said it was the most different one, and if he didn’t hide it, other people would start accusing him that the coin was wrong, that it shouldn’t be used—because its print was different, because its color didn’t match theirs.

Premium Member IN SPIRITUAL MOISTURIZING

Be not like fall leaves,
Dehydrated and in dry dirt;

Premium Member A BRIEF POETIC SIMMER

once

again

the warmth

of sunshine

showered my being

awakening the inkwell of mind

overflowing in musing contemplations

of allegorical messages 

of a fertile womb

of mind seeking to inoculate 

others against infectious

lies of deceit

sowing apathtic seeds towards

empty scales of justice

and  plowing

that pandemic-abracadabra

oppressor syndrome

that we must uproot

in the awareness

of ancient poetic-tragedies

being a thing of the past

and that we must be even stronger

than that ancient survivor*

whose torched memory

ignites burning spears

of seasonal reaities

shaping the fall 

of winter-like discontentment

ushering in the springing

of our rooted renewed 

liberating spirits...



*Othello
