Premium Member The Gifts of Creation

As I sadly left the greenery of mountain side and verdant valley,
a gift of three was given to me,three pairs of animals wild and free.
The first couple to cross my worn path were two crows upon the grass.
Their squawking antics bringing mirth a mated pair upon God’s earth.

The second pair two chestnut deer, no antlers marked there passage here
Adventure’s lure the gentle hart, Sir Gawain’s companions at Camelot’s start.
Last to appear from the Lord of love A pair of Cardinals red as blood.
to show me balance is what I need, to connect the spirit with the deed.

For sky and earth and sea, I shall praise Lord God the Almighty,
for all the bounty given me, I shall praise the Lord God Almighty.
For fire and metal, gifted free, I shall praise Lord God the Almighty,
for all the bounty given me, I shall praise our Lord and God Almighty.

Grand Spanish God

-
Montezuma Golden on earth he lived upon his land
Cortes his rival metalled horse and soldier Spanish grand 
Aztec warrior a noble race to them a god should come 
From far beyond their skeleton homes and on beyond their drum

Arrived with thirteen horses led, ship- wrights cooks and priests
Conversion of the savage race for gold to calm the beast
Convert or die a mottoes cry or fall before the sword
For Spain to bow for Phillip now and seek out your reward

They marched and welled volcanoes tell their horses bayed the throngs 
Allies deide a growing tide a force with banging gongs   
To Mexico go a causeway row an empire of the sun
Dream of gold and rape be told a new utopian

Hostage held Montezuma tell your treasures of the peaks
Deliver now a golden brow or life will leave your cheeks
More and more arrival gold in plaza decked festooned
But leave they say won’t go away disease takes over soon

A battle shout of wooden clouts by causeway boats do meet
Eventually send new boats amend an Aztec mass retreat
To citadel retreat to hell burn out each temple top
The fallen crown for Phillip down complete and burn the lot

A sorrow say a race away today their pride does seep
Christian bell before to tell a loss of millions weep
Cortes rebels and changes shell a death mask soon will show  
Response a plea a shame you see as god meets him below

Innocent Night

The innocent night of shame and 
Disdain,
Guiltless night of pains in the 
Vain, 
A bruised night of groans and stains 
Of deception,
Peasing  so deeply and pressing me 
Strongly.
Only God can console me, only God can 
Defend me as he did in the innocent night
Of tears and fears.
Only God can judge and console....


How Does That Lilly Grow In This Place?

In this valley were the sun did seem to shine all day and a lone coyote on a hilltop calls out 
for a mate. Were arid temperatures seemed to linger throughout the day and the skulls of 
the weakest of Mother Nature’s most defenseless litter this place and nature’s many 
scavengers’ feed off the last of their remains. With their forward set eyes which always seem 
to be in search of another easy meal to claim. As both the weak and the strong seek out 
shelter from the hot day’s sun, with shelter at a premium and each cool place to rest virtually 
non existence to those who sought out relief from the unforgiving rays of the hot sun beams 
burning down on their carcasses and brains. Some of them would even fight for those rare 
and few cool hiding spots, even if it meant to their death. This was Mother Nature’s attempted 
to bring balance and harmony to a place where only the strongest of God’s creations seem to 
thrive in this place. It was here that I found a single Lilly growing in this God forsaking place 
and it was then that I did realize? That our God had a purpose for us all in this world, even 
for that single Lilly that was growing there all alone in this place… It was Gods way of telling 
me that all things are possible even if we seem to be alone in this world. One was not a sign 
of the end, it’s really a sign that there is more to come and that is why the Lilly does grow 
there in the valley all alone in a place where there was once none.

Weavily Spells

Time has come to this,
words I got to speak,
onward I hold to flee
yet good I forehold to reach.

To God be glory
Today has fall in this date 
for real,
back then, weak I stood to 
speak,
the good came and went 
out of MY will.

I had enough at the hill,
up there I thought to GO for 
a deal
and let my yesterday went 
unpeak,
such I want life to be, and 
that was it.

How were we,
how many of we tend to 
behave like we,
how many we asked why 
were we,
and when life got tough we 
asked God why we?

Such this game we play,
and loved to win every relay
is this how we hope to play
and save our pockets and 
not to pay?

The world has many means 
to send,
on our dead bed we shall 
rise once again,
and set the go alright, all 
set!!

Godfather Part 2

Breaking it down to you
that a gullible god walks among you
on his journey of self discovery and one to find god in a sense
in the end it is mankinds best interest to utilise this spiritual robot
to create something that he was not before
his family will be going first
the angels will keep him seperate from the one thing that can break this curse
me, i can walk around freely and never be a part of this until the end

When the time comes for your turn to interact with this being
you will be aware of this
a strange enlightenment of how to work with this genie
whose rules are constantly changing
your life will seem a little bit unfair
but not as near as unfair as things have been for you
try as hard as you can to fight this, the cancellation of your sex life may be an indicator
by playing the game on focusing on doing the right thing
you will be rewarded by this spiritually, mentally,physically, sexually

for the time being you on the scene of this supposed crime
will be aware of your shifting luck
but will not be able to pinpoint it on the lost cause that granted that shift
the angels are extremely good at this deceptive trick
this is a selfish selfless experience, something for you and something for another
you won't be able to ask me of his whereabouts
I won't know...
the selfless game we play of doing the right thing we are a team in this endeaver
and the angels are keeping score
which will be rewarded
eventually something may go awry, and the game starts over
you may consider me a physical doorway into this experience
when you see me you may think here comes trouble
and as fate would have it, you will have to focus on changing my luck
for me to open this door


The Princess of Melista

Beautiful Twin Blue Pearls - She came quietly and gracefully as a 
beautiful lioness would when she stalks her prey.  She utter no words or sounds unto me. 
She began drawing with ease and her thougts were consumned with the task at hand.  I a 
young lion with great love and might was about to depart.  Then The Holy Spirit moved me 
to ask of illustrations for Bevo.

I really did'nt want to disturb her concentration, but I was obedient.  (Overwhelmed I felt, 
because I was obedient)  She began taliking and I could not help but marvel and be so 
deeply entrance with her beautiful shy blue eyes.  It was like looking into radiantly blue and 
encircle black priceless jewels that came from The Palace Of Gems.

Then she spoke with such joy and tenderness that I felt the safety and serenity amist life 
treachery and chicanery.  Just for that moment I knew what being in The Heavenly Realm, 
meant.  Her locks reminded me silk which had been woven from the finest silk in Italy.  Who 
was this damsel and fair maiden that allowed me to enter her space?

She had gentle lips that resemble the color of the seeds that lived within the security of the 
pomanagrante fruit(mis-spelled please forgive me).  Her smile was the shear illumination of 
that coffee-shop.  Oh how bless I was that evening.  My heart only desire to pay trubite to 
this inner/outer beauty which was fashion by God-Himself.  Truly the loins of her father was 
bless as her mother womb.  Only God could have ordain such might and beauty in such a 
petite matter. Thus was the beauty of the beautiful twin blue pearls, as myu humble heart 
remain palpitating whenever I entrertain thoughts of that profound evening.  God Bless God 
for The Princess Of Melista(to be continued, I wonder?)

Why Live

idk why im still here, 
so many things have happened to me. 
sometimes i wish i can no longer live. 
that way ill feel way better then how i feel now. 
but everytime i think it over, 
i know my life cant be over
ive got many things to do. 
blocks in the way wont make me return 
no matter how hard the walk gets
i will never look back 
continue till the end of the race
i know that through the race im going to get hurt
but the bible says 
if you believe in God 
the things will turn out good in the end, 
the pain im going through
is going to help me grow.
God's guidance will help me
stand with my head up 
nothing can stop me. 
if my God is with me. 
so i know ive got The strongest reason
to still be here

Car Wrecks

Cruising for a bruising, I wreck my blue car.
It runs on regular with no gas gage, goes far.

She ran the yellow light at sixty. I went on green.
Her witness date, on same yellow light.
My car spun a one-eighty, went for four blocks.
Policeman who took me home. Later stood up
and vouched for me. The judge took witness.
Had to pay a fine. Never mind this injustice.

Orange Fiesta, rainy night. Truck passed. 
Broadsided crash, totaled car. Sprained ankle.
Got new sunroof with the fix, instead of a check.
To Colorado it got me, when I escaped with kids.

White Saab, snow car. Exhausted was I
From night shift. Hit broadsided, blind hill.
Totaled car again. God loves me and my vehicles.

On my bicycle hit by another car. No scar.
Scary sometimes how God loves me. 

Train coming down the tracks, no gates.
Music loud, didn't hear blow. Stopped cause God
Told me so. So on and on I go in another car.

Blinking Blinkered

Blinkered

Out amongst the milky way
Where the planets walk in silence
There does start a brand new day
It’s an every day occurrence

Blinkered we are by the science
Nothing lives out there they say
Have to listen be compliant
Or get sent to Coventry, hey

There are other earthly spheres 
Scattered through the cosmos way
One God mainly is feared 
Keeps the inner animal at bay

Walk ye out amongst the comets
Walk amongst the milky way
See the craters as they vomit 
All of this is yours to pay

Quicker than a lightening flash
The light ship thunders on it's way
Cosmo Naughts  young n brash
Flashing hurtling there today

Finally we meet another
Yes there’s humans this I say
Pattern of one God is a looming
Other species  to him pray

Don Johnson  18-may-11



If it rattles round inside your head
slap it on  puter till its fed
Blinkered are we bout the cosmos
orderd planning thinks instead

makes sense some plan
