Decisiveness Poems

Premium MemberTough Old Bird

Tenacious on occasion.
Orderly always.
Unspoiled by opinions of others.
Generous to a fault.
Honesty is his only policy.

Outperforms what is expected.
Longing for Heaven.
Decisiveness is a strong point.

Backbone shows in the face of adversity.
Ideas that solves problems he owns.
Receptive to the opinions of others.
Downhill is now his direction of flight.

Premium MemberThe Heart

For most of my life, I had heard it said,
'Follow your heart.' It made sense to me,
but there was a measure of vagueness.

Only a few years ago did I hear someone say,
'Do not follow your heart; LEAD your heart'.

Someone has also said, 'Lead, follow, or get
out of the way. ' What shall I then do?

Upon hearing the word, LEAD, I knew immediately.
I knew that my heart did not have the leadership
qualities required to navigate this journey of mine.
I knew that my heart reeked with inconsistencies.
At times, it was indecisive, weak, and worried.
At times, it displayed both surprises and deceit.

With such traits, how could my heart be depended
upon to lead me through the hills and valleys of life?
I needed decisiveness, strength, confidence, and faith.
I needed something, someone, greater than me or my heart.
That is where Christ and His teaching came in with answers.

Half-Glass of Dilemma

On the table, posing silent,
It taunts our outlook, coyly –
Un-sharing of its true intent,
In Mona Lisa mystery.

We bite at its enticing mass,
That bends our mind in simple bait –
This still-life liquid in a glass,
A frozen frame on reel of fate.

Some say it’s half the way toward gone,
While others see there’s more to pour.
But are we blessed for adding on,
Or simply cursed for drinking more?

Just midway toward decisiveness,
This glass awaits its destiny.
It’s in the hands of thirstiness,
Or trapped by formed capacity.

Seems that we get what we perceive,
In bias of the eye’s invent,
By what it is that we believe –
Or, maybe what is never meant.

Premium MemberPRAISE BE TO GOD FOR WARNING US AGAINST DECEIVERS

October 19 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Mark 13-14

Key Verse – Mark 13:5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you. 

PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR WARNING US 
AGAINST DECEIVERS

Praise be to God for warning us against deceivers with their: 
Dishonest words 
Disgraceful ways
Disrespectful witness
Detrimental worldliness
Dysfunctional waywardness

Mark 13:32-37 Praise be to the Lord for
commanding us to be watchful while: 
Waiting actively for His arrival
Working abundantly by His affirmation
Wanting His approval along His assurance
Walking against arrogant and apathetic attitude
Withdrawing from abominations through His assistance

Mark 14:6 Praise be to the Saviour for
delighting in our good work wrought on Him:
Dearly with dedication by His divine design
Diligently with determination to His direction
Dutifully with dependence on His driving defense
Devotedly with decisiveness through His distinction
Determinedly with discipline and discretion from destruction. Amen!

Premium MemberMY POETIC BIO

My name means “blessed*,” and I am by God’s wondrous delight
Midst determination, dedication, decisiveness, and discretion as traits-might
I’m the sister of Rudy, Bert and Ming, my siblings with caring height…

As a Social worker, I cherish the practice of kindness, truth and compassion
While my heart always prays for vibrant, triumphant, and jubilant reaction
To conquer fears of separation, rejection and deception…

By faith, I would like to see miracles, mercy and marvels in my ministry
Right now, I’m a resident of the Pearl of the Orient Seas in Asian territory
My surname bears “greatness” and “magnificence;” thus, to me, victory…

Daily, my special son expresses his love marked by warm embrace
While foster children greet me with their endearing cheerful ways
Meanwhile, orphanage kids encourage me sweetly in this life’s race
Since together, we are a loving family in God’s nurturing place.

*Psalms 32:2 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

March

March comes for everyone
    to light his torch once more
    in his decisiveness to go on. 
March comes for everyone
    to step one for his ladder
    and start a new world. 
March comes for everyone
    to metamorphose again
    and realized the sacredness of the year. 
March comes for everyone
    to welcome the god of the sun
    and blest his season. 
March comes for everyone
    to turn the page of time
    and renew his soul. 
March comes for everyone
    to think of toils
    that one has sacrifices for His Will. 
March comes for everyone
    to look back and patch
    what is missing in happiness. 
March comes for everyone
    to resolute his faith
    for God and man. 
March comes for everyone
    who goes astray
    and go back to where he belongs. 
March comes for everyone
    to commemorate the bitter sweet
    of his love in February. 
And, March comes for everyone
    to carry his cross
    to Calvary.

Sensitization

My place of natural habitation, 
Lack of closeness and suffice of openness. 
Never ever lacks a sustained vibration, 
Possesses tenderness and politeness. 
Sudden bursts of emotions, 
Shows a genuine and tiredness. 
My body and soul seek consultation, 
As it lacks definite decisiveness. 
The monotonous thoughts  and their possession, 
Neither retards nor show laziness. 
The vigorous play is still on, 
It is known for its uniqueness. 
A deadly virus needs immunization, 
Otherwise shows its seriousness. 
Life is a matter of prevention and precaution, 
Don't exhibit effortlessness. 
Every action has got a reaction, 
It demonstrates completeness. 
Silent reunion of habit and habitation, 
Still to come and will bring happiness.

The Conceived Illusions

Most confining and to the decencies, 
Feebled feelings and enslaved alternates,
Oddly detached, from them degradations,
Of whimpered whines and conceived illusions.

The reliance on the diminished decisiveness,
The age past then that's best in stewardship,
Oddly detached from the practice in manship,

The dependence on them downed possessions,
Of untimely prowess, times of emancipations,
But conceitedly troubled with fantasized them,
The perceived attachments to concise illusions.

Premium MemberVP and Office Manager - PS

Though poetic in many ways,
   my other side also presents
good strengths in business skills, 
   and productivity that shows
command without pretense.

Assertiveness, decisiveness 
   take place in non-artistic ways;
accounting flair digs in
   for undertaking dreaded chores
like tax returns each year.
 
Supportive instincts always rise
   to organize and look ahead.
With honed computer skills,
   investment and financial sense,
my long-term goals are met.

The rigid business side of me
   helps organize my mundane world,
while the poetic me,
   coordinates my soulful sphere
when poetry unfolds.

Decision of Deciding

Declining, demanding, yet defying...

It scares me to think, every moment of every second of every person's life has a direct link upon the time that's going to happen

I see ...
 I see the future of the minute
 that just occurred...
The moment that could have been cured,
It's so close 
so vivid 
it stings my head 
it routes my route
..
It's so deep such that the feelings of inadequacy relay on the unknown yet the instantaneously known, so it goes .... So crude 

It's terrifying it's doubtful it's unbelievably soulful .... 

   My time
   my place 
   my thought 
   my itch, 
   determined by the 
   immense correlalation of occurrences 
   all infanely sewed together by
   the needle of decisions.

Declining the time
 deterring the mind
 fooling it to the disbelief of 
the actions,
the thoughts memories, the 
moments of deceived decisiveness, ...

One tells me deal with it 
Once upon a time ... I coulg have decided to not carry out a action to lead me to write this poem ...

The beauty here is you're also here, why are you here? The decision feeling lead you here ...

Acronym of Addiction

Adhesive seems to screen,
like a cage I found my being,
Imprisoned you!
Either intimidation or empowerment it slain,
Land in towns,...fence all over queen,
with one tree surrounded by forest,
Equiping personality negatively or positively in mess,
Stimulant to nerves,...shadow of tense, 
Controller reasoning with thief of decisiveness,
Troublesetter good works fulfilled,
All on a pace,Yearning it boosts,
Holding key of routes, 
Ladder of a wretched man,
Staircase to dreamers fan,
Dwellers in ghetto and slum,
Their Landlord,...Estate agent to tennants in a bungalow,
Serve as a crown made from amethyst,....and crown from hollow, 
Defined with fear or enthusiasm,
Anxiety pinned to hope,hatred about scope,
Solidified by ground of pressure and disclosure,
Reliefs a contrite spirit,
Distuction underlying a smiling realist,
Every moment nailed to counters, 
Figures outcomes converse, 
Planet manipulated by force of attraction,
Born out from a mustard pest,
The overwhelming acronym of ADDICTION!

Regrets

Regrets

a stressful moment to recall
events
of poor decisiveness
bad choice
gainless
fruitless
bad and sad.

Regrets.

Decisiveness

as stark as the sun
in a blue sky without clouds
so raw our thoughts
when we are honest

so brave
so fearless
our thoughts
when we finally
decide to decide

we can run
as reckless as the wind
that breaks the ocean's waves
