Oh how I love you.
             Cherishing each moment,
            for you have opened          ...

Idle my tongue remained, my Lord,

till the moment it learned how to pronounce Your name

But from

that moment onward, it never ceased singing your song

which has set my soul aflame!

water
murmurs softly,
through the cool of exhaled
breath, against the stones it whispers,
secrets

secrets,
gently spoken,
lonely unbeckoned words, 
hidden deep within broken hearts,
aching

aching,
melting sorrow
pours viscous and endless,
caressing emotions that hide
within

within
this emptiness
sprouts the seed of desire,
where blooms love’s flower, bathed in sweet
water

               Doves at my feet

I turned,
towards my friend, who always was complaining
about the injustices and hardships of life and in 
a calm voice I asked him:
 
" Tell me, was there a moment in your life that you, 
smiled? 
Laughed?  
Jumped for joy? 
Celebrated a success?  
Kissed...

On my way to church 
the spirit of Christmas I met the other night.
All excited it was as the day of Jesus's birth
was coming.

In awe, I approached it and hesitantly
I asked:

" Could you, sacred spirit, tell me what the real
meaning of Christmas is? "

The spirit...

Patience

Is the wise charioteer that holds the bridles of the impetus
  
For 

To guide us safely over the hurdles of recklessness and haste!

Winter's frozen tears

Scattered on despairing ground 

Sparkling diamonds!

Tell me, 
My dear friend, 
My beloved brother, 
My trusted ally,

Till when are we going to let 
The autocrats
The dictators
The despots, and 
The tyrants govern us?  

Till when do we intend to allow these
Barbarous
Vicious 
Immoral, and
Unholy glory-seekers rule our lives?

Till when are we going...

As I watch her from across the open squares way ~

Beneath this black and white zebrad umbrellas, curtain and stage....

Navigating, throughout the hurried animated crowds

While holding fast to the facades below their colourful awnings

Trying to avoid to escape, caricatures candied, perpetual, and sometimes pelting rain....

Which...

Attitude can be nurtured and changed
By you in spite of what has happened in your day
Confident people master it quickly
Despite what they are enduring
Enthusiasm is a side benefit that
Fosters team work positivity and friendship
Give yourself a break if you
Have had a bad day. We all...

My life’s ship,

Under the watchful eye of The Lord,

Opened its adventurous sails of hope and

Prepared to cross

The turbulent ocean of afflictions without fear

Searching for the harbor of tranquility

That God has prepared for it to

Anchor!

All people,
Are born with an inner voice.

Those, 
Who delight themselves in listening to it,
The voice becomes louder and clearer with 
The passing of time

Thus
 
Indicating the path one should follow in life 
For the light of truth to see

While

Those who ignore it, 
Or shut their...

You are truly a blessing.
