Best Safeguards Poems

Walk Slowly, Tread Lightly, Voice Kindly, Hold Tightly


Walk slowly, Life with its deep mysteries awaits;
 For within the moment Time breathes and dies
Spur gently, racing horses begging passion's gate
 To bring Love from those towering blue skies-

Humanity Exists As Sad Creatures With Evil Skins

Reprieve may be a fine desert or a freedom to live
A blessing freely granted or the power to freely give
But we must dare admit what immense courage some things take
And use our smart brains to identify the sorrowful...

My dear, the one whom rest eludes;
     whence comes to you spirits at night,
these specters that harass your mood

Thru my very best by God’s might

By God’s grace and for His glory
I vanquish guilt that oppresses
And seek peace from Him Who blesses.

While sharing...

Institutional Jargon

Strait lined jacket, 
A wheelchair line-up peruses the pasty walls
In synchronized fashion

to close the box

Or nearby country lanes and quaint front yards,
are the Eucalyptus Rainbow, streaked trees,
found in Southeast Asia island countries.
Two hundred twenty-foot tall tree safeguards,
its ninety-four-inch smooth orange-tint trunk,
growing in the lowlands and rainforest,
wood makes paper and cosmetics cherished.
It's pale green, red, grey, and puce, a slam...

Fully aware that He never makes any mistake!

While waiting for Christ’s return, we should trust His direction
As His students taught...

Why did God create angels
to wander behind the gates
of Heaven to protect it from Hell,
or to obey the command of His will?


Without my knowledge, or comphrension,
He assigned one of them to protect me...
why would a mortal like me defy His intention?
Everywhere I go, that angel...
