If the ocean's water
were used as writing ink for pens
to write down our words of praise
the ocean would eventually dry up
before it might be put in writing.

evil will triumph 
if the righteous...

Premium Member Reducing Knowledge
Insisting one might was well be dead
Feasting upon dark emotional words
This is how the young have been led
Magnetic this compass for the birds
Signal sent be that of infrared 
Drawing them all in by the herds
This be part of their pseudoscience 
By misusing the cognitive science...

Though still within our infancy, 
we strive to thrive, but woefully 
we flash and flaunt our 'primacy',
display our trophies pridefully.
 
Our terra firma ecstasy
destroys survival's harmony,
lays waste to life on land and sea.
Mankind, thy name is vanity!

By doubting Nature's regnancy,
defying laws with levity,
we strain our...

Premium Member The English Language Ain'T Easy
If you think the English language is easy to speak, 
Perhaps you have a thing, or two, to learn. 
You might say “axed” when you mean “asked” 
When is it appropriate to say “dang,” “darn,” or “durn?” 

“Advice” or “advise,” ”accept” or “except,” --a curse...

Downhill Skiing and Sledding

He had always found Hillary hard to face
Which is why Bernie runs all over the place
And he really never got to know her
Started sinking to depths that are lower.

Worse things ever he often had applied
Saying how Hillary was not qualified
She started crying...

A Symbol of Unity
(Dedicated to Pope John Paul 11)

Is Religion a symbol of unity?
Dedication for the welfare of mankind
A spirit of understanding
A respect for existence
An honour for leading the path
For awakening the human beings
A challenge for impurity
To protect equal opportunity
The explanation of Nature
And its system 
And a power...

Roses
This life mirrors a rose.

A beautiful vision, but a pain to feel.

Needled stems causes blood to stem from my flesh.
Draining my veins of the rosy red essence of life
that flowed through my bloodstream. 

The blood flows like lava after a volcanic eruption 
as it burns...

A Dollar For Your Healing
A dollar for your healing
I hear the preacher say
A dollar for your healing
Come on and let me pray.

Write your cheque and sow your seed
And then you'll be debt free
For God longs to prosper you
Just like He's prospered me.

A dollar for your healing
I hear the preacher...

Premium Member Looking Through the Eyes of God
It's not like children wearing color glasses,
Or like the spectacles protecting our eyes;
Jaundiced eyes are Like carnivorous glances,
Everything seems like preys in many a guise.

Isn't every human a true image of God?
Am I to reduce or offend anyone?
Didn't Jesus love even those who were a...

Premium Member Today's Vocab Word Is Elderly
I’m tempted to backhand the ones who call
		us sixty-somethings old or elderly.
		How dare they use such terms describing me?
		Infuriating! Boy, do they have gall!

		It’s fine to be solicitous and hold
		the door—to be polite, but not for fear
		that I’m about to croak and Death lurks near
		to...
