Premium Member Revel Joyfully
It was on a cold night in Bethlehem that hope was born
A babe lay in a manger as angels sang joyfully
Above the nativity a star shone casting bright light
Guiding the paths of three wise men to welcome our Savior
As shepherds flocked toward the illuminated holy...

Premium Member Revel In the Moment
Revel in the moment of now;
this moment won't ever repeat.
Live your life on the edge of wow;
don't let yourself feel incomplete.

This moment won't ever repeat;
cherish every fleeting second.
Don't let yourself feel incomplete;
in a way you had not reckoned.

Cherish every fleeting second;
get the most out of...

Premium Member Revel In Silence
Don’t
think
that just
because yours
was the final word
you are right.  Many times people
quit arguing hoping it will make you stop talking.
So you and they can revel in the sweet sound of silence but for different reasons.

Premium Member Wallower's Revel
Oh, how sad, oh how very glum,
Goodness gracious me prater comes.
Still writing winsome words of woe,
Endlessly stopped, never to go.

Oh Lord, let not our life pass by
Let us do more than weep and cry.
Wallowing in morbid abode.
Endlessly stopped, never to go.

Whiling away the endless hours;
Scribbling...

Premium Member Revel In the Rain
Storms can come at any time
There are mountains that we climb
Sunshine helps to ease the pain
We have to revel in the rain

Revel in the rain
Within the swirling squall
When your back’s against the wall
And you’re feeling so very small
Revel in the rain

Life can take us for...

Sly Revel of My Lady
Hear O maiden, on whom desire springs forth
It brews mine soul, chiming taste after port
Have thou detour, pursuit never will cease
Inside dungeon, dwells memoirs begging peace.

Not once does sole eddy whispers’ depart
Birds dance at lightning’s amazing glory,
Nervy morose obeyed deadly loch art
Baffle tongue shields the...

Revel In My Ruins
virgin feet,
i stepped onto the quicksand
in ignorance of it’s
deceit.
as the clouds
overhead draw
together in the
grayest anger,
my heart hurts for relief.
i stand tall, but
that doesn’t change the
reality of this
disaster.
you were a tornado that
spun me for a loop;
so much destruction
in such a short time.
i can’t admit my defeat...

Let Me Revel 'Til Tomorrow
Far from the language of men I buried
My sorrow, I wrapped it in solitude
Grieving safe in linen white and I heed
Its soft demanding voice rarely subdued

For should I say too soon: ‘I badly wish
From you to be parted. Go! Disappear
In the air, I no longer...

~ (~) Tides Revel In Their Rise ~ (~) ~ (Part #2 of 3) ~ (~) ~
Seeing this now, I still, being blinded by them I find I am still frightfully often fighting Him and 
this, and these facts. 

And knowing myself and knowing no other viable future, without Him. 

His love, exults for me, all of us I believe, a...

Premium Member Revel In A Luscious Glimpse
Deep blood red orange cloud’s,
ethereal dream float,
Satin wind carrier of luscious mint,
green hymnody’s deft transport,
Spring hues random loitering,
between gray peeled branches,
Chirpy echo squeak,
 from red-wing blackbird,
A fragile wafer tin threshold,
Golden stream gurgle,
under marsh reeds, 
Evanescent saline grain haze,
Azure ocean tide aroused,
from still wave slumber,
Clamshell pearl...

Premium Member Revel In Winter
opening your heartstrings
seeing your happiest self
mastering the cold
enthusiastically enjoying day's snowflakes
loving life and your place in it
feeling God's joy for the day
Intuitively wise, yet open
Unifying your soul-self with your flesh-self
You become blissfully joyful,
daring to revel in winter's eye...
