Best Blessing In Disguise Poems
When you came from the heavens to my womb,
I felt the galaxies inside you.
The first time, I saw your eyes.
A mirror of the Milky Way.
Fresh and divine.
Your voice must have once been an angel's own!
For when you spoke, it was a sound I'd never heard.
Your first word, my favorite term.
Engraved in my heart, the tattoo in my soul.
You must have met David on your way!
The bravery in your first step
Oh, I just had to pray!
I'd been given a unique gift.
Made in a gracious way.
And as your grew, I just knew
You'd make it out there.
You'll shock the world with the talents you bare.
Now you're the man you're destined to be
I'm torn apart yet so happy.
I'll will love you, for the millions to come.
My first true love, my first mystery
My first son.
-A.Weekes
So thankful to know the love of my sweet little boy
He's certainly nothing short of a miraculous bundle of joy
Like his sister, he's such a beautiful gift from above
He fills my heart with a tremendous amount of love
He gave me crazy contractions 2 in a half months early during pregnancy
A free spirit like his sister, he craved his independency
He was on a short leash from the beginning that kept him in
I'll never forget the first time I saw his sweet devilish grin
His umbilical cord was less then a foot long, a blessing in disguise
I guess they're normally 2 feet or longer so it was to everyone's surprise
I feel so much love when I look into his eyes
Like his sisters, a vibrant blue more beautiful then the skies
He certainly knows how to keep me on my toes
He has lightening speed and goes and goes and goes
He looks up to his big sister, they're both growing up too fast
I embrace every moment with the both of them as I know forever it won't last
I know one day words of "I'm proud of the man and woman you've become"will roll off of my tounge
For now I'm thankful to cherish this special time with them while they're still young
No matter his age he'll always be my baby boy, my blessing in disguise
One day I hope him and his sister will read my words and feel my love long after I'm gone and smile at me in heaven looking up at the beautiful skies
Tears r real
can b joy or sorrow,
it cracks our shell
reveals what we mite b going through,
it eases the pain,
a silent prayer,
makes us realize,
its a blessing in disguise.
paints a picture,its GOD
and nobody else.
Wen we r left all alone,
and nobody cares,
rocking sorrows 2 sleep,
wondering wen its gonna end,
make us realize,
its a blessing in disguise.

A Blessing In Disguise
Many years ago, I was asked to give the blessing at dinner. As a guest, this was not something I was accustomed to and therefore declined, finding myself in a losing debate. “It’s not a big deal; just acknowledge ONE thing that you are thankful for”. Politely, I said no, then stood up and left.
Each and every one of us is on a path and that path can be long and winding. Though some boast with confidence, no one can know what is coming just around the bend. It is that bend that I have always tried to prepare for, to do what’s right, to be ready. But life is not a vacation, in which you can pack.
Many years later and after my divorce, I felt lost and more afraid than ever before. Realizing that a path is more than HOW you take your next step, it is who, that you are NOW. But, I don’t know, who I am! I have withdrawn or been abandoned from many friends. I have tried to focus on my kids and myself. I have tried to breathe, through meditation. But, with no avail.
Early on, I reached out to a friend I hadn’t seen in 16 years. And though she lives out of state and has a life of her own, she will periodically call to see how I am. I am thankful! A couple of years ago, out of the blue, a woman (my first love!) had messaged me. She was in town and wanted to catch up. We had talked for hours, as if 26 years apart were no more than just a day. I am thankful! A friend here in town that knows of my strife, who listens to me and gives advice with an unconditional kindness. I am thankful! And for the dinner I had today, where I am always invited without fail. I am thankful!
So in these last few years, on this narrow rocky path that I walk, I am beginning to see a glimmer of hope. Not that much has really changed for me, but I am changing in the way that I look at things. Choosing, in how I see. Deciding to re-look at my life to see how and where I am today. And I am thankful!
On a final note; the blessing that I was asked to give, I realize now that it was a blessing in disguise. Not only did they want me to be thankful, but they also hoped it would draw me from my shell. Never underestimate the power of God to put someone in your life. Incredible things can happen when you’re willing to believe.
Thankfully Yours, Jeffrey

When I was young and full of dreams
Of goals and great success
My pathway laid, my visions set
I was nervous nonetheless.
I had an inner confidence
Of the things I wished to do
And so I tried as best I could
To make my Dreams come true.
My best laid plans got in the way
And I somehow failed to see
That my dream was just a dream
Cause life had other plans for me.
Yes I went down a different road
As my circumstances changed
My boyhood dreams were now all gone
Things were rearranged.
With Good Advice, which I never got
My plan may have succeeded
But nothing ever happened
Cause I didn’t get what I needed.
But things happen for a reason
It was a blessing in disguise
I enlisted in the Air Force
Which turned out was very wise.
It really was a great career
The best decision of my life
Saw a lot of different places
And met my lovely wife.
I’m Retired now and life’s been grand
Things are really good
I wouldn’t change a single thing
Not even if I could.
the good fortune
of a snake in the sparrows nest
after the cuckoo has left

upside of unrequited love ~ twenty years on thanking god above
a blessing in disguise
questions in the mind
don't have answered
in the lips of lies
the heart of the poor
got too many questions
what about our life's
what about our rights
what about freedom
what about our children
what about our lands
are we still save
a blessing in disguise
life is a free zone
but now am sorry
is turn to a game
the survival is no longer
the fittest
instead the game organisers
are
but what has a beginning
has an end
except from God
a blessing in disguise
i have never seen
an empire last forever
either i heard of one
in power for ever
history proves it
and now it we are
living in it reality
i see the signs of
the time with an
alarm of distruction
i see the Powerful
stargarllin to maintain
it stand
i see the corner stone
stepping up while
it Clark the Piller's
of lies
a blessing in disguise
we are the victims
about to be the hero
we are the ones
that bear the pains
of greed
our life are a provocation
to humanity
so why at the end
we will not rise
for long we are have been
at the bottom of life
so if destiny exist
it must be
a blessing in disguise
A blessing in disguise
Makes one sigh in relief;
It makes him real cheerful,
With joy instead of grief.
A blessing in disguise
Can get you hypnotized;
Like a game of magic,
Turning tears to smiling eyes.
A blessing in disguise
Comes when least expected;
Two hearts find each other,
With a love that's so committed.
A blessing in disguise
May come to anyone;
Turning a freak failure
To a triumph well done.
Some things seem ironic,
One ought to realize;
God turns even crisis
Into a blessing in disguise.
This is not some verse of weed or wine
discovering now that six resembles nine
What diction or numbers can cover the blows of time?
Those blows hitting and splitting
As hurdles harrowing and arrowing
And then taking your wall for their vine
Those blows sending and pending
Bitter shivers down your poor spine;
Grasp by the time of waking at dawn
there is still room for things divine
Yet never will the garden’s gates unlock for thick hearts
Face it yet with a smile!
Those blows of time
are rambunctiously rampant and windy
to render your sailing ship strong and fine.

I've came to realize all the pain I've been through has been a blessing in disguise
You let mistakes hold you back, I prefer to focus on the lessons they provide
They counted me out, but I gave depression a fight
I came to realize all the pain I've been through has been a blessing in disguise
Heartbreak upon heartbreak now I'm heartless
Oh how predictable, an emotional poet calling himself a tortured artist
Funny how I was bullied and they used to leave me out
Then they asked why I let depression and anxiety prevent me from leaving the house
I'd go days without eating, nights without sleeping
Found comfort in pain, I enjoyed the bleeding
Missing my father deep down, but hating him on the surface
Picking alcohol over me, ended up making me feel really worthless
I was my own father with a little guidance from rappers
Dreams became, nightmares, tears became laughter
Good and bad eventually equal out
You'll find inner peace when you let any evil out
Grew up hating everyone and everything cause my parents didn't seem to care
They didn't take care of my screams and tears
Which made me realise its dumb to waste tears on those not worth them
Moving on and surviving without them, is the best way to hurt them
All the pain I've been through has been a blessing in disguise
You let mistakes hold you Back, I prefer to learn from the lessons they provide
They counted me out, but I gave depression a fight
Every obstacle that set me back, was a blessing in disguise

Dear PS readers and artists, forgive me for sharing so much about my self-funded missionary stay of 3 years in South Africa. I akso onplained about poor - almost evil - connectivity for internet, so much so that almost 60 PERCENT of my comments and submissions are lost as soon as I click: POST POEM on this PS site. Rest assured, as I humbly repeat, U lost nothing! But I must assure those who did comment, that I did return the visit to your poems, even if no comment appeared. Sometimes, u got the same comment posted twice. Does it make up for words devoured by cyberspace-monsters?

On 27 March 2022, I posted a message about repenting & coming to faith in Jesus Christ and then? Some power decided I was not the messenger for it. So,I accept yet offer the following short A, B, C message, as I am a minister of Jesus' Gospel of Grace. And it is a Sunday ...

In order to see visible growth in oneself as Jesus's steward and follower one must ask about and do:
A. Walk with Jesus (not grieve Holy Spirit)
B. Admit to, and overcome, BROKENNESS
C. Watch your Cup? Is it filling up, overflowing, ebbing?

I have a reference you may read: Norman Grubb's, continuous revival The Secret of Victorious Living CLC Publications, 2005.
Just for the new year’s
I’ll just grab my beers
Chug, chug, chug
From the hefty quirky jug
The New Year’s Resolution
I’ll run to the store
Half past four
The New Year’s Revolution
Just for the new year’s
My friends will say cheers
To a random loud mouthed foul tempered angry man
While juggling a frying pan
The New Year’s Resolution
Will I cheat on my true love?
Definitely true bout the question above.
Therefore, maybe I’ll just get rid of her pollution.
The sun rise every morning we witness is nothing but a blessing.
Its rays travel penetrating the earth and that for sure is amazing.
A seeding sowed in soil growing into a plant is magical.
We are unable to understand this equation because its not mathematical.
A child smiling at you when you hold him in your arms is a blessing.
If at all you witness such a sight it makes you feel refreshing.
A healthy mind and body is always better than a wealthy person.
Give it a break and take it easy because thing may worsen.
If we’re lucky we have many blessings that throughout our life arise.
and sometimes the most wonderful of these are the blessings in disguise.
A time when things seemed to be falling apart at an extremely rapid pace
when…what we actually found…was they were falling into place.
A time when despite a misfortune…we kept going…we grew…we succeeded!
A time we did not get what we wanted…which was exactly what we needed.
A mistake that taught us a lesson, perhaps two…or even three.
A misfortune or a failure that turned into opportunity.
A defeat that didn’t stop us…because we persevered through our strife…
and learned a valuable lesson…how defeats are part of life.
How we can be resilient…how we can take a hit…
How a defeat can only define us…if and when we choose to quit.
A time we closed our eyes and wondered if we’d ever again experience life’s highs…
and when we opened them…to our amazement…we found a blessing in disguise.
Isn’t it amazing in life…that behind some of our misfortunes,
some of our adversities…
our scares
If we look hard enough we can find a blessing hiding there.
Waiting patiently to help us overcome our darkness
when we have, in sadness, lost our sight.
Standing quietly in the background to lead us to the light.
And so today…in the midst of all our turmoil…
with every grief and misery that arise…
as we search through the ruins left behind
may we find that blessing in disguise.
