Premium Member Characteristics of a Writer

Your heart has a yearning
And a burning desire 
To share what you’re learning
Like voices of a choir 

Small pieces of paper
With the things you have thought
A con or a caper
How the villain was caught

No time is a wrong time
If you wake up at night
With a thought of a rhyme
Then you know you must write

Watching movies with you
Your friends do not enjoy 
For you catch every clue
And discern every ploy 

And time seems to fly by 
When you sit down to write
With that glint in your eye
There is no end in sight 

You longed for the teacher
To ask each for a story 
You wrote down your feature
Of our flag called, “Old Glory”









Friends with the dictionary 
Filled with word after word
To some it seemed scary
When the big words they heard

But not to the writer
You knew you’d become
A reader delighter 
You knew you’d please some

 So write on forever
 As your stories you tell
 A writer so clever
 Right inside you doth dwell

My Scorpio Characteristics

MY      SCORPIO       CHARACTERISTICS


I don’t believe in astrology  these days
But I believe in my wife, and she says
October 25 is in the middle of the stinger’s ways.

Generous with my  love, money, equipment, stuff;
But possessive, and  unwilling to share problem or triumph.
 
Jealous and self-blaming  -  always biting my own tail deadly  and curled,
seeking a  round unvarnished tale  of perfection in this imperfect world.

Intelligent,  with  brains to burn   -  combustion-free  cogitation.
Intense,   I even relax intensively  -  high-speed industrial relaxation.

Secretive,  my left hand knows not what’s in the right hand’s palm:
My agitated mind knows  nothing about this poem’s balm, 
It was written by the heart entirely calm.

. . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . .

NOTE

My birthday is October 25.   No cards please .  Just send US dollars in large 
denominations and large quantities.

Premium Member Forgetfulness

Forgetfulness is not one of my better traits
Never the result of any foregone conclusion,
I could blame it on the narrow-minded fates
Or other faults my mind harbors in profusion.
Of all those ills, none causes me such anxiety
As forgetting a most important appointment,
And I try to make all those occasions a rarity
Since they always produce a disappointment
And, sometimes a missed appointment fee!

Chromatic Characteristics

I wear my emotions on my face, 
Cry at the snap of your hand, 
With seriousness, life I embrace, 
A tender touch, I demand, 

Kind and gentle with a smile always, 
That's what you will see outside, 
Inside, I churn and hide my malaise, 
You'll never know why I cried, 

With straightforward faith to lead me on, 
A poem to match my moods, 
Looking forward to heaven's new dawn, 
Brazenness, my pen exudes.

Premium Member Biblical Spiritual Characteristics

The Christian way is no easy task
God's call is a call to fully endure
many obstacles have to be overcome
but victory's assured for God is sure

A true Christian shows real godliness
having deep humility to put others first
denying one's self have no worldly want
only God fills one with spiritual thirst

This thirst clearly is heaven sent
producing eternal kingdom affection
to renounce the world's pleasures
so give the Lord full attention

God sends his spirit in one's heart
producing His character to bless
living holy lives to give Him glory
putting on our gifted godly dress

So live truly for God alone
display yourself to be holy true
brings pleasure to God our Lord
eternal always forever to do

('If our common life is not a common course of humility, self-denial, renunciation of the world, poverty of spirit and heavenly affection, we do not live the lives of Christians.')
- William Law.- (1686-1761) 'A serious call to a devout and holy life.'

The Human Antonym

The human antonym 

Buddhist, but maleficent 
Losing,but triumphant
Home, but astray
Articulate, but nothing to say

Achieving,but no ambition 
Trusting, but full of suspicion 
Cold hearted, but devoted 
Political, but never voted 

Lazy, but overworked
Level headed, but berserk
Lacks talent, but a numen 
All of the above- a human

Characteristics of Caricature

Characteristics of Caricature

Never were quite certain or ever sure,
What became Characteristics of Caricature;
Not any joking;
Very provoking;
While we had to endure the overture.

Premium Member Qualities and Characteristics

Love can shine like salvation.
Love lights unseeable torches
When heated, love evades judgment.
It gives breath to the sweetest sounds.
Love makes reasons and it breaks reason.

The Kingdom of God destroys the characteristics of Worry

The Kingdom of God destroys the characteristics of Worry!
Worry blows things out of proportion
But the Word of God puts things in the right context
The Bible guarantees that 'recession' does not affect the Word of God!

Birds always seek something to eat
They do not worry!
Based on their metabolism
Birds must constantly look for food
They do not worry!
God the Father feeds them
Even though they must constantly look for food

The Kingdom of God destroys the characteristics of Worry!
God the FATHER is our SOURCE
He is our Provider
He is our Leader; He is our King
His Government will take care of us!

Birds always seek something to eat
They do not worry—
Based on their metabolism
Birds must constantly look for food
They do not worry—
God the Father feeds them!
The Kingdom of God is never in a Crisis

Premium Member Characteristics of Faith

Faith is knowledge and trust
Faith has 7 characteristics

1.	Faith is a sheer gift of God which we receive when we fervently ask for it
2.	Faith is a supernatural power that is absolutely necessary if we are to attain salvation
3.	Faith requires free will and clear understanding of a person when he accepts the divine invitation
4.	Faith is absolutely certain because Jesus guarantees it
5.	Faith is incomplete unless it leads to active love
6.	Faith grows when we listen more and more carefully to God’s word and enter a lively exchange with Him in prayer
7.	Faith gives us even now a pre-taste of the joy in heaven

Many say believing is not enough for them; they want to know
Believing has two different meanings

1.	If the parachutist is the clerk at the airport, “Is the parachute packed safely?” the other man answers casually “Hmm, I believe so” then that will not be enough for him; he would like to know it for sure
2.	But if he asked a friend to pack the parachute, then the friend will answer the question by saying “Yes, I did it personally. You can trust me! To that the parachutist will reply “Yes, I believe you” This belief is more than knowing; it means assurance.
