When on the road to Damascus, Paul heard the voice of our Saviour. He, who was once Saul of Tarsus, When on the road to Damascus, Hearkened to the call of Jesus. Blinded by heavenly lustre, When on the road to Damascus, Paul heard the voice of our Saviour. I AM that light, foretold of yore, Manger-born; angels did herald. I, who seek hearts, knock...

When we refer to people on earth who are angels, we refer to folks who are generally sweet, loving and kind. Anyone with any amount of decency can be kind. But what of those poor souls whose lives are ravaged by war or whose childhood has left them shattered or paralyzed with fear? What of children emotionally, physically or sexually abused again and...

Written: July 26, 2025, for contest Sponsored by: Edward Ibeh *********** When anger swirls and trust cheats, When hearts rupture and hope is heavy. Our brave backs fight, and our loud teams meet. With sounds that spin and a wonderful levy. A reaper walks by the schoolyard gate, Where apathy switched in the weight. Neglect...

A better half when turned bitter
For long who’d been my better half Has now become my bitter half-- Bitter, my autumns sing Of fantasies of spring… To bull has blown a benign calf Who feels (or feigns) she’s tired Ever since I retired, To smirk has turned a vibrant laugh. _________________________ Happenings | 24.07.2025 | humour, life, wife Note: She has, I would like to feel, nothing against...

All Baked, All Better
What was that one line story? That my parents told me, What was that one line story?

Then you are, All baked, All better Then you are, All baked,...

Don't meadows soften the uneven routes? Aren't wavy seas engulfed by endless shores? Don't rugged trees have within them sweet fruits? Doesn't truth shield the cores of mores? Stumbling blocks could be used as stepping stones. Thorny paths can turn into floral beds. My inner shrine has secret sacred zones. To till my soil of soul, I feel no threats. Sunbeams are spread...

Our better angels, where have they flown? Far afield, in a storm, windblown? And where, the light, where wisdom shone? If only we could see. The answer, it seems to me, is unknown, as the land is in a tempest, thrown. Without their grace, I feel alone, Give them back to me....

I wonder, yes I wonder, how many angels do we have in a lifetime? They say, we each have a guardian angel watching over us. I wonder, yes I wonder, if some angels are in training? Do they need to earn their title, with on the job training? Then we have,  Our Better Angels. The ones we can count on through thick and thin. The ones...

Premium Member What are the reasons behind mine and your's mental confusion's lately commentary
1st Corn 15:4 according to the Scriptures. All of my battles and yours as well really do originate in our minds 'cause our minds are the windows to the world.' As we think, therefore, we become. All of our sins, first originate in our minds prior to actually being fulfilled in our various earthly lusts....

She’s a cat and I’m a mouse; In my hair, she’s a louse! She’s the boss of the house; By mistake, she’s my spouse! Her nature, then, I was unaware; Her torture, now, I no longer bear! My relation, with her is beyond repair; I say all this, when I’m in utter despair! Isn’t it common in every domicile? Towards me, she’s never hostile! Irresistible...
