Best Securing Poems
Securing your strengths
Encased deep inside
Lift every veil
Found in yourself
Accept all the extra
Cautioning panic
Treat it with trust
Understand the menu
Affirm the plea
Laugh off the dull
Invite the alumni
Zero in on the glitz
Act out each stanza
Triple the hunt
Ignore the anti
Option the bravado
Never give up again

I'll forever leave
A little space
Just for you
In between my each oblivious thought
In the silence
Between beats of my throbbing heart
Keep your rhythm
In interludes of my yet unheard favorite song
My each word
That I don't share with the wide world
In between lines
That my diary hides within it's pages
My unzipped emotions baggage
Tied to my heart strings
In window panes
Magic of twilights reflected through your charm
Behind my closed eyes
Where you come to caress my soul
At edge of dim hopes
Smouldering to enlighten your path back to me
Egos and drama
Can never have a square inch of that space
That I have forever
Kept intact for you

Seventy-eight good years
when she went home many cried tears
of joy having left her mark in history
as a leader married to a leader
who believed in justice for all
after Dr. King passed on Coretta did what she could to cushion our fall
by being a woman who worked to make a nation whole
it was done with her heart mind soul
the klan deterred her not
this proven as time went by
through her dedication determination devotion her head held high
Mrs. King secured a legacy building her own
with her four children by her side
GOD our HEAVENLY FATHER welcomed her with arms opened wide
it was said "It's good to finally see her at peace"
believing this peace comes from above
on her tomb it ends with six words
"the greatest of these is love"
In shadows veiled, secrets reside,
Whispered tales where darkness hides.
Beneath the flag's protective shield,
United States' most guarded field.
Cryptic codes locked in vaults deep,
Whispers echoed, secrets to keep.
Eyes that watch, ears that listen,
Guarding truths, the nation's mission.
Nuclear codes, a lethal dance,
Hidden plans, a covert stance.
Silent whispers of classified might,
Shielded by stars, veiled from sight.
Stealthy crafts, invisible flight,
Evasive maneuvers in dead of night.
Covert operations, unknown terrain,
Soldiers trained to bear the strain.
Dossiers marked "Top Secret" and sealed,
Strategic plots, yet to be revealed.
Unseen technologies, cutting-edge might,
The vanguard of defense, out of sight.
Within the fog, clandestine minds scheme,
Shielding the nation, like a patriot's dream.
In hallowed halls, guarded by trust,
Lie the secrets that safeguard, a nation's thrust.
Yet with solemn hearts, we must be aware,
That secrets wield power, with utmost care.
For in the balance of truth and deceit,
Lies the destiny of a nation complete.
To abide in God’s securing peace* is my utmost desire
Never impossible along my Saviour’s invitation-pleasure
He bids me to come freely by the faith He does require
Granting my soul sweet respite in His tranquility’s enclosure.
Blessed wondrously to be assured by His calmness-safety
Enabled am I to linger longer in communion partnership
Plunged in His love that subdues every trace of anxiety
My heart thanks the Lord for His gracious friendship.
*Psalm 4:8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.

When Enduring and Securing
While being attractive, she was so alluring;
When experiencing she had been enduring;
Now safe and sane so are securing.
Jim Horn
For a long time, the old barn had quite a lean.
When you'd come around the bend, it was comforting to see it.
Blushing and shifting weight in the sunlight.
It was a great loss when it finally succumbed to gravity and time.
If it could speak, would it speak of great sacrifice
or hardship and good times.
Would it converse with antiques and machinery?
or the shadow of a barn cat and a long-retired tire swing.
The old farmer had quite a lean just before he passed.
Don't believe he ever got to retire.
He bounced up and down those dusty rows for half a century.
There was a lot of wisdom and a sprinkle of secrets in that lean...
A quiet ferocity coiled in those ancient-bronzed hands.
He lived through two world wars and fought in one.
He served- fed and cleaned up the messes of the elite.
He prayed over and buried everything that he loved....
The city slag still called him simple and backwards.
There is something noble about an old farmer.
Securing his gate at dusk.

PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR SECURING OUR SAFETY

Sanctification-stability against sins
Settlement-steadfastness despite sickness
Satisfaction-sufficiency to smite scarcity’ sorrow
Shield and sword of the Spirit for our Scriptural service
Ezekiel 29:21 Praise be to the Lord for
causing us to bud forth:
Offering us stewardship opportunities
Opening to us sincere outreaches of obedience
Ordering our steps for servanthood-optimization
Organizing us along His standards and settled objectives
Orchestrating for us safety against obstacles by His omniscience
Ezekiel 30:6 Praise be to the Saviour for His
warning against our downfall because of:
Pride presenting our false principles
Perversion along foolish predicament
Priorities filled with personal preferences
Prerogatives, fostering faltering followership
Performance, failing to be powered by His presence. Amen!
