OUR PET DOG

Our pet dog is a home member indeed
She’s part of the family we truly care
As we meet her belongingness need 
Providing good things God wants us to share...
Most of all, is our concern for her life* and welfare.

We call her Alelli; oh, she likes her name
Responding to us with delightful zest
While actively playing her favorite game
Showing us wondrous tricks with her best...
Yes, she joins us in our prayer for all to be blest.

*Proverbs 12:10 A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.

Monkeys

Monkeys are colonizers of trees
They are excellent climbers
They have strong muscular arms
And coordination, they're agile
They don't get tired, always moving
Climbing is just natural to them
They have natural strength and quickness
They love to socialize, family oriented
And have sense of community belongingness.

Finding Dust

Real belongingness is finding a fine dust in a stack of hay.

Belongingness With Fur-Family

"A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast…" Proverbs 12:10 of the King James Bible

Belonging to where I’m loved warmly well
My best “dogistically” does excel
Since puppy times of varied joyous days
Fed and sufficed in my home-base, safe place.

Surviving apart from dear Mother
After forced abandonment of Father
Adopted was I with my three siblings…
Yet only I --- thrived --- by kindness’ enablings.

Living with my loving “fur-family”                    
I hear songs, praising God jubilantly
Beholding them pray secures my welfare
As they exercise genuine give and share.

Thankful to their sanitation routine
I feel clean and fresh with favored hygiene
Around my domestic environment
Satisfied with contentment-fulfillment.

Blest with wonders of blissful growing up
Here am I now, a healthy Mom, prepped-up
Nourishing own puppies, with gentle nurture
Assisted by gracious human nature.

Orphaned No More

Sought by the Lord to nestle in His grace
My soul now finds belongingness serene
Secured around warmth of divine embrace
Orphaned no more against abandoned scene.

Midst God’s compassion assuring my heart
I rejoice to receive pardon divine
Settling me from sins by mercy’s rampart
As confession prevails over pride-whine.

Grateful to the Father’s adoption seal
Making me blessed heir through trust earnest
My blissful spirit worships in truth zeal
While serving with faith of triumphant zest.

My life I offer in running life’s race 
Sought by the Lord to nestle in His grace*.

*Psalm 84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

Leo's Fear

The Lion’s den is where a man could think
Not a way to escape, but to speak.
To look further beyond his pride and stubbornness,
See through his inner soul’s desired belongingness.

But in order to be in a pack
A man must prove his worth that doesn’t lack
He must create these nonbearing circumferences
But also be hidden from the world’s senses

He would initially imagine how he could win
But will likely improvise almost everything in his plan
There may be times when his head would spin
This only happens when his ego becomes the sun

To succeed from a great defeat is more valuable
Than to him losing a battle that hasn’t even began to bubble
Genuinely, if such a threat even becomes probable
A Leo would be notorious but also honorable

So a man’s only fear is being discovered
That there could be only one queen for him
To share such a bond of being rediscovered
His trust is like his heart, one is enough Tim

The only time you’d know that he trust you
When he actually doesn’t want to ever lose you
He can always find a new pack or create one
But he will never be the same man

True Enough

Vision.Vision.
Age crumples the comfort zone.
Letters get blurry.Harder to manage.
Eyes do stop at the previous line.
Last year it did not fail me there.

Nights.Dreams.
Some dreams are only born to be lost
To be lost into oblivion. Forgotten in daytime realities.
Only leaving a trace of belongingness.Once true. Once alive.

Truth of life is a moonlit musing
Adjusted.Cordial.
Eloquent - to be 
True enough.

Christmas Memories

CHRIST* the Lord God reached down to grant love gift
Hope-filled, joyous toward heavenly lift…
Redemption and assured life eternal
Inspiring great spiritual revival
Satisfying beyond what’s temporal…
Transforming heart as in Him I delight
Meaningfully illumined by truth’s light
Anchored upon Scriptures, perfectly right
Saviour makes my Christmas preciously bright.

Memories of great family bonding
Ever remind me of Christmas trending…
Most of all is sharing with kindness’ cheer
Oh, the warmth of belongingness so dear…
Receiving, giving, exchanging presents
Immersing in gracious festive moments…
Enriched with bliss and peace of forgiveness  
Soul of mine thanks Jesus for His goodness. 

*Luke 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

Triumphant Journey

Formed from varied wombs, love vessels so-called
we painstakingly faced the reality of growing up together
though nurtured … with compassion in one big home---
... propelled by care-givers toward triumphant journey.

While learning about family matters
our minds were confronted on parents’ whereabouts 
then struggled to relate midst partnership endeavours---
... till prayerfully overcoming belongingness-insecurity.

In our status as once abandoned and orphaned children
surrendered, not by our choice, to a residential institution
never did we know our foot steps’ advancement---
... but are now assured of soul-assurance vis-à-vis eternal destiny.

Grateful to have been adopted and fostered
our hearts praise the Lord for His sovereign provisions
leading us, through faith, to salvation-islands along rescue streams---
... today, we're enabled to reach-out by His HIS grace* voluntarily.

*Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.

Coming Back Home

Clinging to intimate family ties
Outstretching love the soul never denies
My heart yearns for home*, priceless and precious
Inspired by dear parents, indeed gracious
Now missing great times, spirit-nourishing
Geared am I for revival ~~~ flourishing…

Braced by secured belongingness fortress
Affirming needed respite from distress
Comfort of home beckons me along hope
Kindling childhood times of triumphant scope…

Here am I, yielding to home’s call, so warm
Offering peace-filled care of vibrant charm
Meeting me just as I am with cheer’s zeal
Expecting my presence for bonding seal.

*Ruth 1:21 … I went out…, and the LORD hath brought me home again…

You and I Are Us

I have a different soul, dreams, desires and thoughts 
I smile to enjoy life, tales, talk and pleasure of gush

I feel the pain of others' rue 
as someone's sorrows get me blue
This sense of compassion
makes me feel that you and I are us

 I always want to have this feeling
Though, you remember me when something is asked for
indeed we are complete when together and I don't forget the fact that
You and I are us.
Relations are so pure and beautiful, 
dust over these just fade but never leave.
An incident of belongingness and we are again around because you and I are us...

Childhood Blessings

Blest with loving family’s vibrant care
I delighted in belongingness glow
Flowing through kindness to give and to share 
Enjoyed by stuffed toys I could not let go.

I delighted in belongingness glow
As a child nurtured, counted as precious
Enjoyed by stuffed toys I could not let go
Midst prevailing warmth, so sweetly gracious.

As a child nurtured, counted as precious
My heart was nourished by home’s goodness feast
Midst prevailing warmth, so sweetly gracious
Extended to pets, never treated least.

My heart was nourished by home’s goodness feast
Around respect bond of comfort’s embrace
Extended to pets, never treated least
I thank God* for parents’ securing brace.

Around respect bond of comfort’s embrace
Flowing through kindness to give and to share 
I thank God for parents’ securing brace 
Blest with loving family’s vibrant care.

*Romans 7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord...

My Hugs Story

Before… I beheld her quivering, shirking---
suffocation gripped her with my envelopment;
breaking free from the gentleness I exuded
she would scamper wailing…
as if scorched by my belongingness’ warmth.

After painstaking therapeutic sessions
offering my compassion-propelled embrace
I witnessed her, gradually yielding to me
succumbing to my love-blest invitation…
devoid of resistance.

Graciously overcoming 
grievous traumatic hug-pressure 
she confessed that she’s healed 
from domestic violence, by the mercy of God*…
Who rescued her against lustful and incestuous hugs.

Now… with serenity's bliss
she’s cheerfully reaching out to others
letting them feel kindness-driven hugs 
sealed by care, concern, and comfort...
precious blessings of earnest bonding.

*Psalm 52:8 ... I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.

Reflect

There are times when you sit alone
You sit to reflect your life
Reflect what you have achieved
Reflect what matters to you the most
Reflect on your valuable time
Reflect on the people you hang around
Reflect on your life
Reflect on our past, present and future
Reflect gives a sense of belongingness
A identity that sometimes we keep hunting throughout our life yet couldn't find
Reflect is a mirror which shows you what you never wanted to see....
