Best Midst Poems

Walking upon silent parched paths,
under speechless scarlet skies.
Your name sits upon the tip of my tongue,
listening to the susurration of my heart.
Each vibration echoes tones of lament,
conflicted by the principles of time.

Adrift in the midst of gladness and sadness,
in a plot without a twist, lost in blackness and slackness,
through turbulent trials, I yearn for you...

A lovely night beneath the stars
   with ocean waves glazed by the moon;
nearby, the music of guitars
   strums soft, a melancholy tune.

Iced tea in hand soothes thirsty lips.
   Upon the cruise line deck, he dreams
of future leisure ocean trips
   'neath moonlit seas or sunny beams.

From his soft...

My prayers are not asking you to
 
save me from my enemy.
 
My children have turned their backs.
 
They praise dance with many
 
Adversaries-
 
When they need be refuking,
 
protesting and rebuking.
 
Among-st those who fight against me-
 
be my offspring.
 
I fear not the man who
 
I already know to be the beast
 
While...

"In the midst of winter I found there was within me an invincible summer.
That makes me happy because it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me there’s something stronger something better, pushing right back."  Words by: Albert Camus


in the midst of winter 
a rush of wind comes my...

In the midst of my dreams

where happily ever afters

and fairy tales come true

the scarlet rose moon dips 

as she dances along side me

under a million flickering strobes

illuminating our milky way serenade

I call out her name

and the brightest star shines 

I watch her gleam

I watch her glow

basking in all that's good

and I know

that beauty

The same beauty...

Here am I enthralled by sunset delight
while beholding celestial beauty blend with horizon's majestic sight 
in letting go of this day's triumph as well as challenges' blight
to welcome tomorrow, filled with hopefulness' might.

Sunset colors cheer me when rattled with successive rush-hour dues
Presenting choices of varied priorities’ hues…
I praise the Lord for His interfering beauty-clues
For me...

Optimizing freedom zest
Challenging mother’s tidiness best
My son whirls himself around
Oblivious that he’s wheel-chair bound.

Loosening mobility gear
His spastic hands hurl things everywhere
Zooming beyond glee’s ecstasy
He’s waged war against my mess-flee policy.

Entangled around disarray’s coil
My mind screams, devoid of nagging turmoil
Special child now wins over distress bouts 
Ending my heart chaos by his delightful shouts.

*Resolved to blend...

In the midst of solitude…
I’m upheld to learn from God Who teaches the best lesson:
Such is to love Him above all – in and out of season
To esteem Him with pure heart’s reason
Seeking His grace to transform me to be a better person.

While gripped with solitude-dread…
I’m led to understand that to fear the Lord is...

In the midst of silence, echoes whisper loud
Longing for your voice, a symphony profound
Fragrant memories linger, haunting my space
Your scent, like a flower, still brings solace and grace

Oh, how your warmth embraced me, a tender flame
Now distant, your absence leaves an empty frame
I yearn for the touch that once set my heart ablaze
Lost in the...

It's a wonderful blessing to be in His midst
such a wonder to feel God's lovely presence
to sense His peace and grace so great
viewing God's majesty through a divine lens

This God is almighty in all His ways
coming to poor sinners able to save
for in the Lord Jesus shows His love
this His only begotten son He gave

Now...

M-idst blue and gray, 
E-levate your hope and faith;

Aware of the New World Order
and its philosophy, principle, predicament 
vis-à-vis Bible prophecy
my spirit trusts God 
Who is the Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent
to put things in His order in His perfect time.

Meanwhile, let me picture how servant leaders
govern midst God's Divine Order according to Scriptures... 

There they are with freedom bliss~~~
diligently pursuing the works of anointed...

Once my prime human fortress, indeed great
Now, he's helpless... gripped with paralysis
My father who aided my first step-straight
Needed lifting-up on a constant basis.

His strength, blessed by God's help, became my might
My growing he guided with His wisdom
How I nestled in his caring delight
Around his loving disciplined freedom.

Seeing Dad struggling, oppressed by ailment
Presses me for faith's...

In the Midst of Chaos, There Must be Peace

Within all debating, fighting, hating, and an act of mayhem. There must be peace. Peace just the word alone gives people with no hope, hope. 
Dreams of better days to come. Some crumble at the mere thought of peace.
Some fear the shear release of something so powerful,...
