Best Intercessor Poems
Jesus you are my saving grace
My coach preparing me for life’s race
My refuge through life’s raging storm
Mending all that is tattered and torn
You are my forever guiding light
When my way grows dark as the night
My anchor in truth, who keeps me grounded
Through trials and tribulations I am surrounded
You are contentment of all my days
Among a world that has lost its way
My joy where everlasting peace abides
In times of trouble, my shelter my fear abides
You are the constant and steady beat of my heart
My shield from the enemy’s fiery darts
You are the melody my spirit sings
Praise and worship to you I bring
You are my strength when I become weak
The answer to the question that I seek
The solid rock on which I stand
Protected from life’s sinking sands
You are the wisdom that prepares my mind
My eyes can see that once was blind
My redeemer who ransomed my soul
Freed from the chains of Satan’s control
You are my courage to face the battle
In victory you leave my enemies rattled
My constant hope in days of doubt
In distress, an escape, my way out
You are my comforter collecting my tears
Relieving my mind of constant fear
Living water to my dying soul
A friend forever while ages roll
You are my intercessor to God carrying my pleas
You are all that I will ever need
In your name, I do pray
Jesus you are more to me than words can say
You found me and loved me first
Even at my very worst
Your death, my salvation, I can never repay
Through my failures you choose to stay
On the cross my eternal home was gained
Because your love for me was greater than your pain
With all that is within me, I shout your praise
Jesus, you are and always will be, my Amazing Grace

He works in my heart
Taking me apart
Repairing the broken pieces
And gently cleansing the rust from me
He works in my spirit
Lightening my thoughts
With joy, hope and faith
Inspirations of His saving grace
He works in my soul
Never letting me go
Reassuring my anxieties
And sharing real acceptance with me
He leads and guides me
Down rocky, rambling roads
Where I don’t know the way
But He shows me just what direction to take
He fills my life with faith
In His love and mercy and peace
All that makes Him who He is
The answer to every prayer that has been
He is the One I know as Savior
The intercessor of all prayer with answers
He goes to our Heavenly Father
And pleads for our miracles in the making
He is Jesus Christ
The answer throughout my life
The promise for eternity
With Him, heaven is a certainty

Holding On To Love (Ten Word Challenge - 2)
Not even the TACTILE, brown sands of time can erase
my Beloved’s LUSCIOUS taste. BITTERSWEET dreams
wrapped in pink ribbons arouse my soul like QUIESCENT,
rhythmic raindrops tip-tip-toeing on AMBIVALENT seashores.
FLAMBOYANT and ARCANE as a rare, white peacock,
my Beloved is the QUINTESSENCE of my being.
His love requires not the IMMOLATION of self.
For he’s my INTERCESSOR guiding me through
the shadows of night into the clarity of day.

Alone in my living room, I am at peace
pondering Immanuel, incarnate God.
Moving to my garden where lilies speak peace;
they know an Intercessor who cares for them.
Walking thru the neighborhood, I wave in peace
at friends whose Inspiration is a blessing.
Reaching the park, I continue on in peace
feeling my soul's Indwelling Spirit at work.
Watching adults and children at peaceful play,
amazed at the Invisible God's presence
I reason on my own immortality.

Idyll (Idyl)
Along rails of ambivalent dreams,
Bittersweet yet luscious flashbacks
Take me back to my friend, the tactile moon – a
Quiescent basin of grace and alchemy: we would utter
And laugh about legends quite arcane from books
Chipped from eve’s daily flamboyant story – telling rites…
As willows stoop like night’s immolation for more
Replays of drama, our guiding star acts as an intercessor
For excuses to prolong near dusk's trail in our former home--
This quintessence of a young spirit’s hunger to journey
Far across moon-friend’s range in an endless, mythical glide!

Light Verse
As the church celebrates your feast day
known as the Immaculate Conception,
we're grateful for your intercession,
to be part of your Son's redemption.
Preserved from original sin,
a grace and privilege you've attained.
You're the new Eve, our Blessed Mother,
who'll define us through your apparitions.
Your litany of titles draws us closer
to many situations of our sanctification.
Faced with the trials and tribulations,
we call upon you and be our intercessor.
Hail to thee, dear Mother Mary!
with our prayers and sons we raise to thee
be a reflection of our great love for thee
as we venerate thee in our community.
As the prophecy unfolds in the Genesis
"I will put enmity between you and the woman,
between your offspring and hers.
He will strike at your head while you will strike at his heel (Gen 3:15).
Dear Immaculate Conception, our mother!
being deeply involved in your devotion,
we pledge ourselves to be shared and broken to others
like the gift of the Eucharist, our life and sacrament.

Deforestation
I stood, AMBIVALENT to full and LUSCIOUS scenes
in this ARCANE, new woodland, BITTERSWEET with views;
FLAMBOYANT yet QUIESCENT, TACTILE thoughts came forth
of similar QUINTESSENCE brutally destroyed
by INTERCESSOR...'progress and development'...
the IMMOLATION of past woodlands' lovely trees.

AN ODE TO HER
Honour whom shall we raise high
With her i always stand and sigh
Your love is what i see at home
To whom shall you be made known?
Cleopatra-can she ever stands your tide?
The mediator o! She stood the time
She is a way easy and safe to Christ grace
And intercessor of the worn out age
She is of heaven alma-mater
Tabernacle of our lord and master
O! Virgin our gracious mother
Full of grace humble and greater
Etal Gracias Light

Ode
The one that got away (Ten word challenge-2 Contest sample)
An AMBIVALENT mood engulfs me, as BITTERSWEET memories
meander in my mind.I was 15 she was 17,yes an older woman.
She was so ARCANE, mysterious, and FLAMBOYANT at the same time.
She was the QUINTESSENCE of sophistication, a LUSCIOUS ripe fruit
waiting for a TACTILE experience.
I was so innocent, so QUIESCENT in my thoughts, I felt I needed
an INTERCESSOR, to offer my IMMOLATION of love to her.
So, I asked my best friend to approach her for me, and ask her to dance.
They danced the night away together, yes she was the one that got away!

The Theme of Redemption
” 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,” Rom 3:23-25 NKJV
The Theme of Redemption
Will be the science and the song
Of the redeemed throughout the ages
Those to whom eternity belongs.
It’s the science and the song,
Even the angels hold in awe,
The infinite mercy and love of Christ
Our Redeemer and Intercessor.
Let’s meditate upon His mission
And contemplate heavenly themes.
Our prayers will escalate to heaven;
Touch all heavenly realms.
We must study the Scriptures
Each one for ourselves;
Not take another’s interpretation,
But make sure we do delve.
The noble powers of each mind
Need powers worthy of concentration,
Comparing Scripture with Scripture,
Seeking the Theme of Redemption.
Many fail to see the beauty
That lies within God’s word;
The significance of redemption
Is simply bound and not heard.
The Theme of Redemption
Will be studied for a thousand years.
Angels will study with us,
Such planned perfection, no arrears.
To us it is a mystery
And to the angels as well.
It’s only in eternity
This Theme of Redemption Christ will tell.

Rhyme
I am surprised you are so ambivalent
For me I wish to be familiar with the arcane
Knowledge can indeed be bittersweet
Let me taste of these luscious notations
Lines scribed inspired by our intercessor
It is not necessary to be quiescent
So I choose to be a flamboyant protestor
You sit there and silently witness my immolation
Tactile threads of my thoughts reduced to ashes
I fear you will choke as you inhale my quintessence
For John Hamilton's ten word Challenge.
To add a bit of difficulty I limited myself to ten lines and used the words in the same order they were provided.

Bible is the Holy Book inspired by God and is life-changing
It's the word of God, living and active,
Sharper than any double edged sword
It's the revelation of God to the world
It's a breathe of God useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting
And training in righteousness equipping for every good work
It's the greatest Book on the earth
Which will keep us away from sin and temptations
Giving a sinner an opportunity to transform into saints
The word of God is living and powerful which lights our path
Giving us direction and clarity for our future by overcoming sin
The bible has the Power to save our soul from eternal fire
It has the power to teach us to live a holy life
It has the keys for unlocking a hardened heart
And showing us to live a life of God's way
It comforts the lonely, hope to hopless, rest to the weary
It lifts us up when we are discouraged and hurt in our despair
In the beginning was the word and the word was with God
And the word was God.
Jesus Christ is that living word of God
It's the living word of God that saved us.
God speaks to us through Bible
Through our conscience which is Holy Spirit
Holy Spirit is nothing but Jesus Christ
Who is our comforter, counselor, Helper, Intercessor,
Advocate and Strengthener
The Bible gives us wisdom, good conscience,
Peace and security from danger
Deliverance, healing and protection from all evil.
For everything in the world reveals the power of Gods Word.
Heaven and earth will pass away,
But Gods word will not pass away
Grass may withers, the flower may fades
But the word of our God stands forever.

Prose Poetry
Poet Heart, 1973
In the bittersweet, luscious years of youth,
the poet heart sought the quintessence of truth.
Life was arcane, confused and ambivalent,
sometimes exciting, sometimes quiescent.
I used my passion for meditation,
and my wild days faced immolation.
I moved from the grand and flamboyant,
to seek out the real and relevant.
Growing a poet heart, not tactile,
having ideas that give words style.
Writing the dreams of a crying nation,
an intercessor for the "Pepsi Generation."

Amber was ambivalent
to invite Aaron to her birthday party
His boisterous laughter, luscious dress,
arcane, and above-average flamboyant behavior
would have everyone ignoring him with immolate stares
“Wow! He's weird!”
Bittersweet tactile memories I grew up with
He’s the quintessence of a friend,
Very quiescent at times,
but always has been my intercessor in times of need
or self- immolation for me
He’s perfect, reliable person in my life, my best friend
