Bring Us Back To Life
Something inside tells me
That things are gonna change
The world is in great turmoil
I feel there's lots and lots of pain
The rich are getting richer
And the poor barely get by
Oh Jesus please come help us
Bring this world now back to life

My list of wishes in the Gaza Strip is

Too many now lifeless

BRING IN ALL THE LOVE WE CAN
In this time of uncertainty…hate and anger…
between every kind of woman and man
may we be blessed to bring into the world…
all the love we can.
From wherever we do your wishing…
whether in our heart alone…
or from a God above…
Never have we needed it more…
never has there been a greater time….
never has there been a greater need…

Seasons Bring Change
The season’s subtle winds bring change, from the skies
to the mountains, bearing an autumnal overcoat
boasting gold, orange, and scarlet, gradually
hushing to a dying chestnut brown.
Soon, the warming of spring will throw back its head,
laughing at crocuses and daffodils daring to
bloom above winter’s malingering snow.
The pulse of dawn captures me in its taciturn

I Bring the Lightning a Song
[pre-chorus]
That flash that stuns your eyes
makes you hold your breath
shiver to your toes
ruins your rest
[chorus]
Thats me, I bring the lightning,
I can start the fire
burning brightly
things can go on for hours
[verse 1]
I learned a long time ago
how to set match
to the tinder
and make things all aglow
dancing crackling cinder
It takes intention and focus
and knowing where to

Does the death of a beloved bring you closer to God
Foundation.
Do quiet moments, spent in reflection of a beloved, bring you closer to the God of your choice?
Title:
Calvary Dreams
(A lone voice whispers)
I heard your sweet voice
Today
On our anniversary,
Your birthday
That old well-loved familiar sound
Whenever I press
play
To see and hear you
On that old wedding tape
We once made
You still look so

bring in the rain
bring in the rain
her rocking chair was hushed,
the metric creaking ceased
and sprinkles fell gently
like a supple cotton blanket.
she no longer smiled.
her feeble hands were folded
while a sweet summer breeze
softly kissed her unyielding lips.
persistent raindrops fell
singing a final melody
to the old lady who waited
for the kiss of visiting angels.
her journey now complete,
the fragrance of roses
growing

Dolus the Gulible Clavichord player and Miss Magdalena Solis,

Bring back the sun
At times I used to think life
was a luscious bowl of grapes
but since, in many weeks and months,
we haven't seen the sun ~
I've fundamentally shriveled up,
my mind's become a raisin.

GOD DIDN'T BRING US THIS FAR TO LEAVE US -My SpokenWord
GOD DIDN'T BRING US
THIS FAR TO LEAVE US
God didn't bring His sons; This far to be unloved;
Been given this toughest battle;
(In life) As we pray God listens;
We must watch our mouths;
Speak Life, in God guard our hearts;
And always be forgiving;
