I'm not a rock I'm not a stone;
my ancestors were made of soil
I am from, above
not beneath life force
birth
energy from heaven
a seed
Planted in between Heavenly Glory Father's
Elohim God and Earthen father and mother
co-created me
an anomaly
a seed
from heaven planted by my father's
into my mother
I'm nourished I'm sown
I'm grown
I am you man
human
Humanity spurned a seed
planted in my mother to evolve come out fleshling
and birth reborn
Energy woven spiritually place in vessel
Now I'm tissued flesh humanity
You want to know the truth,
I'm a HEAVENLY BIRTH PLANTED IN A VESSEL EARTHEN SUIT

As I walk in my Father’s earthen garden
Midst the energies veins
I walk outside envelope
His energy
So when you walk outside in Him
When you walk He’s holding your truest self
In Him
Energies shared Energies compound
Walk and received with hearts witness
In His holy presents we our ever blessed
Walking in Him we believe, we receive
In His nature energy
We’re all part of His nature
In statue tall essence
We walk virtue beings
Of created Holy Energy

Little earthen quakes
Rumblings of the soul
Missives made of letters
Placed in ordered rows
Tales of ancient ruins
Never told before –
Little earthen quakes
Restless on the page
Telling little tales
Giving it away –
Aftershock upheavals
Pain, that trembles, grows
For the pen that wrote them
Little did it know
Little earthen tremors
Never letting go –

A girl with an earthen jar, (;)
Dim clouds, feels stormy mad.
Long and winding road so far!
Yet arise their crops so glad.
Brisk steps fording a brook,
Skies roar makes quaver voice.
She pass with an eager look,
Now a damsel with a poise!
At the clothesline, there she goes.
Hasty and rash oh rain drops!
Will the stream overflows?
And muse, fond of ripple grasps.
Oh dancing with them please dreams,
If still further she'll sing.
But a ray to reckon gleams,
The mountain's truth is rising.

EARTHEN VESSEL
I was just an earthen vessel
broken long ago.
I sat among the thistle
clinging to my woe.
'Til one day a man named Jesus
released me from my gloom.
I was just an earthen vessel,
sitting alone within my tomb.
The instant that He touched me
I was no longer the same.
He filled me with living water
and I was no longer maimed.
He filled me with His love,
and I was instantly changed;
with His touch that healed ten thousand
the Master I regained.

You are more than a sperm donor;
You're co-creator with God first and mother;
You know who you are;
And you know whose you are;
protector
male nurturer
provider
earthly daddy
I'm so gladly
You're a follower of Christ;
And that you try to show me the light;
Some call you mister;
Some call you Joe
My siblings and I
love you pa,her daddy, pappy, dad
I'm so glad;
Thank-you earthen father;
You're a follower of Christ;
And that you try to show me the light;
You know who you are;
And you know whose you are;
HAPPY

As This Nature Child Wades Clear Earthen Streams
On her island, precious paradise thrives
Trees hang, laden with large delicious fruit
Bees with no sting, fill up huge honey hives
Nightly stars seen falling, romance they shoot
There majestic songbirds sing her to sleep
Cool breeze flowing across her soft silk bed
Dreams visit with joy and peace truly deep
Her guarding angels flying overhead.
Every dawn perfect weather brings sunshine
Gentle waves wash upon shore, sand and beach
She strolling, finding her life well and fine
All her treasures found within easy reach.
Paradise, exists in her hopeful dreams.
As this Nature child wades clear earthen streams.

From clay came a human form
Given the breath of the Almighty
Not formed of precious stones
as Lucifer
To remove the pride of adornment
in Lucifer
To install humility in clay fashioned
in Adam
And still enclose the Godhead
in Adam
From clay Divinity sowed the seed
of the SuperNatural
That the earthen vessel will glory
in the Divine
So that man's dependence will not be
in themselves
As we seek to return the glory to Him
We are adorned with His nature
. For His purpose
When man is done doing His will, then shall
. He retrieve His Spirit
. Given to man for a lease
And clay shall return to clay, then man's
Soul shall return
To the dwelling of the Almighty

The tones being played reminiscent of the good old days
When as boys we used to play
O how I miss those days when the grass was green and
Everything we did we overcame
This earth will never be the same
We've polluted it to the point of utter disgrace
Have we no shame no shame
As I wipe the tears from my face
What will our children do when they reach a proper age
Farm the fields for dust and their children again and again simply insane
We had our time to make a stand for change
I'll close my journal now as the words drift off the page
Back to this world that we made.

The Earthen Vessel
Why the Lord has chosen earthen vessels
is still a mystery to me,
the Glory of the Lord descending upon them
all because of the work on Calvary.
But an earthen pot is so unstable
till His Spirit abides within,
able to strengthen us because of our weakness
and help us to overcome every sin.
For I know that in my earthly vessel
alone, I cannot stand,
but learning to call on my Father’s help in time of need
He’s always near to give me a helping hand.
And sometimes, these vessels of ours
do not do the things that we ought,
but remembering He is the Great Potter
truly satisfies this little pot.
Now Lord, help this vessel to be one of honor
so on it Your Glory may fill,
that I can stand up for Jesus’ sake
and promptly answer Your sweet call.

Golden soft was the light that swiftly flew,
As whistling rain pelted majestic oaks
And the soaked birds began to cry for you
As Nature silently wrapped up its cloaks
Thirsty for coming dawn, so bold and new.
Silver Maples fluttering in the wind,
Where the fast sleeping rabbits hid away
All beautiful, we wish to never end
With brightened colors, every joyful day
As Nature's beauty flows out to transcend.
As sky greets the land like a golden thread,
I cry for my heart is truly Broken.
Muted memories from the day we wed.
The future was promised by words spoken.
Your pure soul taken from our earthen bed!
Bird like angels transport you to the sky.
Weeping willows now join in my sorrow.
Unable to give me an answer why.
Today is lost, I long for tomorrow.
There within the Heavens we will both fly!

The late morning light glazes the lake,
pierces, with stems and stalks of lily and reed.
Shadows freeze like lashes upon the limpid surface
of still water fracturing the sky-blue to black.
Iris of earthen orb, brush back the unruly screen of vision,
rub the cinders from night's lingering trace,
awake from the mire of silted dream.
Let the wind, your laggard lover,
rise a frolicking and remove each lash
with the gentle touch of fingertip.
