Unity in community is the connections that I shall seek.
None shall behold its full beauty.
I think it, I feel it, I use it, I am it.
Very lost in the state of equality.
Ease of expansion and growth as time flows on.
Reversing all attempts set by hu-man societies.
Setting new and thicker veils at all edgeless boundaries.
Easing essence escapes ending edified Universe.

“When divine lotus blooms within,
life becomes a feeling called bliss”- by Poet
Life desiccates derelict
in the desolate desert,
infuses perennial peace
of placid oasis in heart.
Sacred sublimity,
felt in serene essence,
embeds in devout sanctum.
Edified soul lights up bleakness,
perceives divine grace,
boundless bliss embraces life.
As the holy season commemorates revelations of scriptures,
Sacred flame burning within, reinvigorates soul’s intellect,
Steering away from the fallible, toward realms of perfect,
Away from servitude of wealth, to caring for less-fortunate;
Empowering wisdom, vying sapience of enlightenment,
Inspiring collaboration in sanctity of spiritual exchange,
Rejecting overtures nescient, engaged in narrowness,
That confine humanity in fallacies unwitting, misguided.
In domains of self-reflection, repentance, and forgiveness,
Voice of indifference cedes to psalms compassionate,
As defective acts vow to mend ways, yearning for flawless;
Remorseful and empathetic, eying benevolence of solace.
From teachings of awakening, from sagacity of harmony,
Cognitive minds seek insights, transcendent in epiphany,
Propelling life toward enrichment in peace and congruity,
Vying spheres beyond the ordinary, edified in tranquility.
From sanctum of souls, depths of hearts, bells-pious chime,
Tolling expressions of kindness, echoing prayers sublime,
Celebrating precious gift of life, grateful for glory of divine,
As lanterns ethereal guide humanity, through reign of time.
So
Idyl
Luminous
Eager nice soul
Neat nice smooth poet
Tactful friendly person
One so beautiful poet
Navigator master in seas
Edified reader so grand writer
Please note: big waterfall shape poem. Syllables go up from nine to one.
Who are the countrified?
The too-soon petrified
Who wooden gods deified,
With them identified;
Their ways not modified…
I see The Countrified
In “Norms can’t be defied!”
Who had gin edified,
With kernels satisfied…
Their cherished game slapstick,
After meals fingers lick:
Those who meet the sodden,
When much damp the wooden;
Dew-soaked their monthly shoes,
For which the police ask ‘‘Whose?”
On “Who are countrified”
Please, in me you confide…
"Edified mind lights life in darkness, senses divine grace
in soul suffused with bliss" - By Poet
The compulsive free will ostensibly latent,
envelopes my mind with transient shroud,
obscures the ordained pathway God makes,
l need to travel for it’s designed for me.
The invisible glow of the omnipresent radiance
wraps my obsessed essence, but I don’t discern,
for I formulate life’s self-centric false image
in the fabricated domain of self-deception.
Out of the dark abyss of despair,
in inward journey through layers of awareness,
my soul perceives the gleam of divine beacon,
lighting up the path to the precinct of bliss.
After the aberrant exploits the errant mind
finds the dismal trail of vice illumined,
the secret door opens to the inner sanctum,
where conscience glitters in heavenly light.
When the notion of being becomes devout purpose,
the soul shines with spiritual sheen,
then in self-searching endless endeavor,
I perceive godly grace in the realm of divinity.

Sprawling, open,free,desolate even, The vast sky enthralling in waves,correspondent to the plateaus and hills, the depths of which are fascinating even within the trained eye. For this design is focused on the epitome of believing that love doth has a dying voice enveloped inside the inner most of all our beings . Equivocation mysticism as a commodity, but equally inviting , is a heart that is walking into the steps, shadows,whispers and echoes of love. For Footprints of our heart leave a trail of edified, and enamored happiness
Edified mind lights
Life in darkness
Senses divine grace
In soul suffused with bliss.

a ghost
comes forth from
the house of the dead,
a rather unusual apparition –
empty, desolate.
a wraith so worn and
frail, it barely seems
there, as if suddenly thrust
from its icy winter shade.
it rises without sound, or maybe without voice,
a solitaire and lonely
shadow without form.
I wonder what its purpose
is here on this day
and whatever its plans for during its stay.
my fear aside, I can’t discern its intent,
dark or light, heaven or hell, good or evil.
I feel light and goodness on the one side and
dark and evil as it turns its back to me.
perchance it
is here to help guide
me, but where?
It seems a lowly darkle, unenlightened
and slow, but it turns with clear
vision and song of
light with an order
of celestial
beings from God’s land.
I am edified.
It is not the size or shape of the gift,
but the inherent purpose and intent of
its presence.
I shall follow it
with boldness, courage, and great expectations
as it leads me into my
sphere of scotophobia.
With God’s love binding our friendship
we delight in sweet fellowship.
Praying together midst His grace
hearts praise through Scriptures’ brace.
Exalting Christ in our venture
faith shows caring kindness- gesture.
Through your concern I’m edified
inspired steadfastly fortified.
Your passion for the Lord, glowing
fires me up toward peace-sowing.
Leading me to servanthood bliss
your example I cannot miss.
Grateful that you’re a precious gift
my soul is at peace by your lift.
Your testimony has me blest
along faithful stewardship zest.
Dear fellow life-builder, press on
your light does shine* from here to yon.
*Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

His point-blank, most promising laurel lost
Long, long his e'er-lasting longing lingers
His muse becomes bedridden under freezy frost
Yet his nikhedonic mindscape ne'er malingers
Surging from mood's winters and merging its splinters
Ramrodding illusion-edified effulgences into his emulous edacity
Without knowing whether with reluctance or with alacrity
Reading the poetry of Lucilla Carrillo, I’m blessed as I’m exposed to the God she believed in; and vicariously, I have experienced the joy that engulfed her in her sweet relationship with the Saviour Jesus Christ. Likewise, I’m edified, as well as inspired to express my earnest faith in the Lord, as she did through her poems. The poem below which she posted on PS on March 17, 2012 exemplifies such:
Jesus My Saviour
J... Jesus I ask you today.
E... Ease my pain.
S... Save me, don't let me down.
U ... Undo the bad that I have done.
S... Share with me, your Kingdom.
M... Make me new again.
Y... You - I want to serve.
S... Salvation, is what I seek.
A... Abolish all my sins.
V... Victorious at the end I want to be.
I... Illuminate my life.
O... Obedience to you
I … I vow.
U... Understand me Jesus, I plead.
R... Remember me in My hour of need...
