Premium Member Lord of war

A torrent of truth..' In this movie is bubbling..Its catharthic
Sensational, also tragic' quite troubling.? And what can
Combat such events' as displayed.? Observance and prayer
Are are the best for this age ' thats why prayer is targetted
On the streets..In your home? Surely that must be (Alive-evil?) By any measure we understand.' And in Romania we
See elections cancelled in the U K and Ukraine..Yet it will
Have no bearing 'each on the other' and truth is flushed down the drain.' I'd like to negate my current reality which
Promotes so much loss and pain..While cancelling.' And
Yet approving much division..Thats where our reality? Lies
Again.'

Looking Forward to

I look forward to 
wringing my 
endocrine glands covering the 
top exterior of 
the kidneys; loving deeply, intensely, first respecting and 
approving the 
toilet brush; the 
new second Tuesday of 
the week.


Premium Member Decision of Jesus

Jesus knelt at the feet of his spirit animal
feeling His Father’s approval and strength
Recognizing the difficulties of the tests he would undergo
But rising to the challenge, as easily as any lion
his spirit guide gave him the nod, approving his decision
to remain on earth, be crucified and reborn
in order to save worldly souls.

Premium Member PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR LETTING US TURN UNTO HIM

September 3 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Ezekiel 18-20

Key Verse – Ezekiel 18:32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.

PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR LETTING US TURN UNTO HIM	

Praise be to God for letting us return unto Him to:
Walk with Him by His wisdom
Work for Him through His Word
Worship Him along His watchfulness
Wait for Him willingly against worldly wants  
Win against wavering, wantonness, and weariness 

Ezekiel 19:1, 14 Praise be to the Lord for sending us 
revival midst lamentation with His:
Love that lessens and lightens our load
Leadership for us as on Him we lean
Lifting-up while living by His liberty
Learnings with His life-lessons
Light in our lively laughter  

Ezekiel 20:12 Praise be to the Saviour for sanctifying us:
Accomplishing His acts against our abominations
Asserting His authority above our arrogance
Affirming His attributes to our adoration
Approving our accountable attitude
Accepting our assured authenticity. Amen!

Premium Member GRACIOUS ALMIGHTY

Great is God Almighty*, deserving mankind’s alleluia
Redeeming, restoring, and reviving the trusting soul
Assuring everlasting security with His salvation-balm 
Compassionately caring; approving my earnest Merci
Inspiring along instructions as indeed divine blessing
Opening opportunities toward service marked by faith
Upholding ... while drawing me lovingly nigh His heart
Steadfastly cheering my spirit to abide in Him serenely 

*Psalms 91:1-2 1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

Premium Member Of Lotuses and Dreans


I was a lttle girl, so wistfully in thought back then. 
Wearing a silk kimona, dreams of a sivered, shiny pen.

A special place in my heart, then, suddenly came to be,
Bright pink, soft turquoised robe, quite heavenly.

It was this little girl’s  gifted.yummy yet holy solitude,
The blue moon and stars, gave her freedom and latitude.

I had no dreams to grow to be just like everyone on the 
planet.
Choosing to be my own shooting star, not run by rules 
made of granite!

I fantasized a room of bright, pink floating lotuses about me.
And that personal space, so long ago, lifted me, so I fly freely, 
sans approving commentary.

Words do not impress me, but affectionate and soulful, warm
people do.
They are the ones encouraging me to live my life as a moonburst 
of satisfying breakthroughs.

Premium Member BLANK CHECK

Title 4/  BLANK CHECK 
Quote: "If one's actions are honest, one does not need the predated confidence of others."  Ayn Rand


Darkness came over that afternoon
As Christ died on the cross for our sin.
Lying is moving away from Him.
We need absolute forgiveness.
Honesty, true humility
To ourselves we visibly choose
To forge a heart approving view.
A home of immaculateness
A solid hold woven of truth
And honorable behavior.
There is no reason for given
approval of others judgment.

Premium Member give me a tiny bit of prettiness

give me a tiny bit of prettiness
not the gnarly lip you give others
show me paradise with approving eyes
give me a sign you care
your silence shows me nothing
terrifying flowers in the garden
and the cottonwood tree
me

Premium Member Bernie's Hardware Store


The wooden floor wore
decades of dust. 
Near the doorway
brooms grew out of a fire bucket 
and bloomed in an odd
array of heads. A pile of coir mats
lay stacked in a wheelbarrow,
all chorused in a WELCOME.

Bernie's store was a haphazard 
sprawl of hardware stuff 
and followed no order at least
by any stretch of logic.
Hammers were paired 
with paint, boxes of nails 
mixed company with hinges
and fittings for copper pipes. And yet,
Bernie had every item carefully
mapped in his head. 
Ask for something 
and he would take you 
straight to the spot.

It had the air of a serious place,
almost like a church. Tools were 
the blessed instruments 
of a sacred order, treated with care
and reverence. Back then
power tools were just coming in
but none contaminated 
the sanctified air of Bernie's 
hardware store.

On the back wall,
above the garden tools,
hung a plain wooden crucifix 
beside a picture of Bernie's 
late wife. From her lofty height
she seemed to look down
with an approving smile every time
the cash register rang,
accompanied by a “thanks”.

Premium Member Summer To Autumn

Simply slow day
Uniquely made for fun 
Mark the Summer’s way,
Manipulating the winds to
Even and slow as they
Reluctantly slink away.

Twilight brings a chill and
Opines its continuing will.

Alabaster moons
Underscore the darkness,
Turn stars to balloons. 
Uniting as one mark,
Melding and moving,
Nature proudly approving.

Simon Cowell,
Can seem a bit foul.
An extra critical talent judge,
It's hard to get his approving nudge.

Premium Member Esther Williams Approves

los angeles athletic swim team is cooking with petrol this morning
their practices were worth it, they are in perfect synchronicity
Esther Williams looks from heaven, approving her alma mater

Premium Member The Boys

They crawl in a line 
along the esplanade 
between beachfront mansions
and the bay's indifference, 
windows down, elbows out,
hands tapping on doors in time
to the doof doof base
pulverizing air and eardrums
inside their metal sanctums
of pure testosterone.

Throbbing engines ease them
along the street, slow 
and deliberate as if to give 
pedestrians time to admire
and take in such potency.
An occasional pump 
on the pedal sends a roar
rasping out of twin exhausts
and stutters a squeal
of tyres announcing to the locals
and all gathered, the "boys"
are here.

Marooned in another era,
they seem oblivious 
to the derision flung at them
as they pass, misinterpreting 
a smirk for an approving smile,
the shake of a head a gesture 
of wonder rather than a judgment 
on how silly they look.
Their egos blaze like the sun
reflected in polished chrome.

When satisfied 
they've given onlookers their fill
of metallic ****, they hang a left,
plant their foot 
and in a wake of tyre smoke 
and deafening noise, rocket off
back to their own private planet, 
time frozen somewhere 
in the exhaust filled clouds 
on the far side of their minds.

Rip Society, Return If Possible

What have you done to those you swear you care
They're flooded with mud and burden they bear
Killing and dying in stealing they go
For that's the example you're living to show.

Where are the promises you broadcast those times?
When running for a position with you're jingles and rhymes
Breaking the rules and making a new
Approving all those that favors to you.

When did you heard the cries of the crowd
You ride in fancy cars and walk so proud
You dont even mind to open windows and see
How polluted and sad this society can be.

How did you manage to eat on your plates
Drinking expensive wines with the rest of your mates
Look outside and witness how your countrymen die
In every way, every time, every street they pass by..

It doesn't make sense, nothing for better was change
You even made things worse while staying your range
Formally dressed nonsense selfish idiots
Your s are crueler than life leaving riots.

Appraisal Affirmation

Blind from birth
A derelict tainting the earth
Lame, deaf, or broken
A weight upon Caesar's token
...draining provision

Voices, choices
Addiction, conviction
Taxes for the battle axes
Removing the Approving
...for lesser

Those who assign value
Based on accepted image
Will evaluate humanity
Based on lineage

LOVE appraises life
Precious and true
No matter what seems to lack
His presence is affirmed in blue

...sapphire
