Seven days of a newborn creation
Hymns to bless the man and soon-to-be wife
Heaven and earth cheer with acclamation
Witnessed by holy Uthras and Great Life
Witnessed by Mandaean kin without strife
Two pearls crowned with myrtle wreaths from the height
Graced with a scarlet-stone ring on the right
Graced with a green-stone ring on the left hand
Grapes, dates, walnuts and almonds to delight
Bride and bridegroom warmly kiss as Life planned
My darling bride,
You are so beautiful,
You are so sweet,
Your beauty is not
Merely skin deep,
You look so graceful,
So poised, so neat,
With you by my side,
I feel so complete.
"A kiss is a silence that says everything there is to say." Guy Maupassant.

The Silent Kiss
In the dead stillness of the early morn
When day`s orb is still below the horizon
When the fading full moon faintly lights the sky
And the southerly breeze is smooth and shy
Pearly drops of dews in silence kiss the blooms
As the first soft and silent kiss of a bridegroom.
It is a quiet kiss with glows of grace
On velvet petals as on a silken face
To mark the coming of a bright new day
Make way to bear heat of the sun rays
As flowers dance with the subtle breeze
And dawn`s golden light spills through the tallest trees.
The sweetness of each kiss hangs as tiny stars
Sparkling with shines of light from a realm afar
The lotus, lily and lavender bloom anew
Beaming with the silent kiss of the morning dew
A symphony of sweet scent spreads apace
Nature`s mellifluous perfume in the space.

THE BRIDEGROOM COMETH
‘Twas ten virgins of willing heart
That went with joy and merry soul
To meet the groom with loving mirth
That the union will make them whole
But behold they were torn in twain
A part thereof was meshed in sloth
While the other set for the rain
So in due time they shall move forth
Now these twin parts do here allude
The minds of mankind in this world;
While part in vanity abide
The other in Spirit are walled
And so when the trumpet did sound
The one in sloth abide strayed yet
They in Spirit holding their ground
Answered the call of the trumpet.

I am the bride, awaiting the Bridegroom
Whom, am I to deny
I am His lover
I am His prize, embrace me Dear One
with an heavenly kiss
Caress and lift me up
Up, above this worldly mess
You love me so
You come part the skies
Descending unto me... thy Holy Bride
I am the bride, awaiting the Bridegroom
Whom, am I to deny
I am His lover
I am His prize, embrace me Dear One
You love me so
You come part the skies
Descending unto me... thy Holy Bride

Christ walked amongst us all ~ We are the pieces and limbs of a woman
Oh my God,
My darling
I love you
Father
Jesus my love
Jesus serious and He's coming
Weighting in as His army comes down
I will wait for Him as the blood runs again red water stream
Flowing down the streets wars and rumors of wars that carry on
Red blood and water mix beneath my feet
While yet I'll wait for you in the garden my love
For you are the bridegroom and I'm your Bride
Darling I await thee in the new Garden

I sense an approaching doom
A wallowing in loser’s gloom…..
In my dream, a filthy broom,
Offering to serve a filthy tomb
And now facing The Newest Womb
To suffer The Newest Bridegroom
And out of my horrified room
I zoom!
Eighteen hours now and the picture still loom
While simply wounds I lick and fume;
A sweet carnival suspending and an arranged plume.
One night I dreamt of my would-be bridegroom
We rode with flair a white horse in blue hills
Across moonshine soaked garden in full bloom
I woke up shaping in mind future thrills.

O' my lady whose was on her way to her marriage chamber,
both Father and father embrace her;
A smile as long as God's horizon,
as you thank Him for your bridegroom;
Hallelujah;

An Invitation from the Bridegroom
Blue was my favorite color until I met you.
Deep in the shadows, I cowered,
immersed in darkened hue,
devoured.
Blinding bright, white is the light you cast into my room.
Freedom from judgment you gave me,
Pious stands the bridegroom,
To save me.
Red as blood, black as pain was the ransom you paid.
You cried, hung, and died sadly,
And washed my sins away,
Gladly.
A joyful rainbow now illuminates my heart.
Thanks to your undying love,
My life canvas becomes art,
from above.

HATED BRIDE LOVED BY THE BRIDEGROOM GOD
If you love me you will show me
That you care heavenly Father
Why bother with us
Who does walk down the aisle
The bride in relationships hated
Where is the groom to come
Where is the one
To end the cause of strife and stop condoning hatred
U’m here to testify
That I realize your real in my life
Oh, Father God you’re the bridegroom
And I am the bride

THE BRIDEGROOM HAS COME FOR HIS BRIDE
You may have lost a loved one
And this person is no longer physically here
Do not despair you're still loved
Angels, God and Jesus Christ care
That person you loved family member friend
Has died and left this world
God had loan them to you
This I thought you've known true
For God the bridegroom has come
Yes, groom has came for His bride
For you see each and everyone of us
Are on loan from the bridegroom God
