A sky of wonder captured in a glance,
The world is wider than the room we share;
To find adventure in a sudden chance,
And breathe the sweetness of a mother’s care.
To find the border where the spirit wakes,
The sudden burning of a secret flame;
To feel the passion as the armor breaks,
And carve the letters of a chosen name.
The open highway and the distant shore,
The weight of choices on a road untried;
To knock with courage on a closed door,
And seek the future with a restless pride.
To build a shelter from the passing storm,
The quiet rhythm of a steady hand;
To keep the promises that keep us warm,
And plant our footprints in the shifting sand.
A quiet evening as the shadows grow,
The gentle slowing of a weary pace;
To bless the harvest that we used to sow,
And find completion in a silent space.
The man in the elevator standing there.
His chiselled face, blue eyes, dark hair, very handsome.
Holding breath, as lustful eyes have spied him
Just who is that striking man within reach?
I’m sure he knows, what affect he has on women.
How could he not? Tall, so good looking, well dressed,
And I bet he is ever so nice to talk to.
Smiling, as he watches his own reflection
God I am gorgeous; he thinks to himself.
As the elevator door slowly opens
Adjusts his stance, picking up his briefcase
He smugly takes one last reflective glance.
Where I was born and raised, the elevation was only 164 Feet
above sea level. When I was 32, upon first ascending an elevation
of 6200 feet, I had an excruciating headache.
The eagle thrives and survives with elevation.
The eagle cannot soar on winds of low elevation.
From the high mountain tops, he waits for the wind
that suits him and allows the wind to serve his purpose.
Our lives may begin at very low elevations or even sea level.
But sea level starts is not a reason to be stuck in the sand.
As we ascend the higher elevations, the air becomes thinner.
However, we must not decline to climb because of the pain.
We learn to make adjustments as we would for the cold of winter.
The higher elevations are where there is much to be gained.

In the Tabernacle, every morning
Aaron kindled the Menorah
He did so every afternoon as well
for forty years, enough to bore 'ya'
But not Aaron, who was always enthusiastic
With him it was genuine, not phony or 'plastic'
For he understood perfectly God's message to him
'In your elevating' every light you kindle
~ You elevate yourself with each of them

Note: The Torah portion for this week is 'Beha'alos'cha,' which
is found in Numbers 8:1 - 12:16. The name 'Beha'alos'cha' is
often translated as 'When you light...' But its 'core meaning' is
'In your elevation...' In fact, in order to fulfill the precept, a
step was put in front of the Menorah for Aaron (the High Priest),
so that he would experience a physical as well as a spiritual ele-
vation when kindling the lamps of the Menorah.
The world wide web holds instantaneous information for all.
In this time of high-level vibrations, it is time to heed and adhere to the call.
There is no need to look up or outside oneself to find solutions, clarity, peace, or serenity.
Time to realize your God frequency, that dormant inner power, an inner voice of Devine clarity.
You are born again several times in life as your consciousness elevates to where objects or entities observed only you can see.
Once old fears, false teachings, judgments, limitations and darkness are eliminated, one will transform to a higher degree.
Engage the game of life at the speed of thought which is faster than the speed of light.
When the ego is diminished, there are no limitations, and your potential for higher levels of greatness expands far beyond the stars of the night.
Irrefutable evolution conduits
Matter tip toes through tunnels
Microscopic nano shifts continue
Outperformers filter free of funnel
Replicas of kept traits hail heredity
Thrivers cognate with larger logic
Attentive nurture forms pedigree
Love poured over timid progeny
Genome keys cut exacting bones
Entrapped wrapped sticky chrysalis
Nature photocopies, care duly hones
Elevating banquet, perpetual Christmas
Elevation in Evolution
Eighth of December
Desirable Education
Turn your inspiration into elevation
Despite the storms of difficulty
Be the force unshakable
Be the lion In the jungle
Rule over your shadows
Cos they are real
And don't forget the green
Snakes when you enjoy the green grass
Life is simple but humans made it difficult
So spread your creativity beyond
Inspiration
Refuse the word you can't do it
And walk like a star
But be humble
Be discipline
be dedicated
Start now cos you won't die twice
Turn your inspiration into elevation
Pave your ways in life with courage
Discharge all forms of negativity
Cos they are easier to catch out there
You can become who you choose to be
But don't forget to say no to vanity
Cos all we fight to maintain in life
We will always leave to six feet one Day
Yet the spirit lives on
So don't just be inspired in life
Grow to elevate your soul
Cos it can save alot souls too
For the true worth of humanity
Feel me if you are of love
Yes feel me if you are of love
Cos I came with peace.
Dedication to all my
Fellow youth
God bless the world
God bless africa
I love you all
At a time like this
When all hope seems lost
Listen and ponder
God is still saying something
At a time like this
When your prayers defy answers
Pray the more
Your breakthrough is close
At a time like this
When you receive a sack letter
Instead of promotion
Do not despair
God could use any foolish thing
To preserve you for elevation
At a time like this
When adversity persists
And every communication ceases with God
It is time to look into your love walk
Despite the malice
of the world,
for the innate wit of fish,
the imposingness of the rooster...
For the fruit that falls ripe,
for the missionary leaf,
for the swell of the waves,
and marine mystery...
For the roots of the trees
that stick to the earth...
For the wise smile
of the elder,
sweetness
of innocence...
For the colors and by the sounds
that still enchant us,
I don't let the worst of the world
stops me from following my trail
toward spiritual elevation!
God, You re Supreme and Holy
Eventually admitted my non- brilliant enemy in a Poly.
You re the Giver of life and fame:
A riffraff neighbor of mine now has a name.
You re the Changer of circumstances;
It should be time-wasting mentioning the instances.
I want my own world to be The Sweetest;
I have yet to accept "It isn't The Bitterest...
I completely depend on you, God;
Though a sinner, from me keep away your rod.
I shall be counting time for the opening of my doors
like ill-bred kids nibbling at their half claws.
What I desire is enemy -angering elevation in life!
I had at my throat been staring, armed with a sharp knife.
Divine illumination
Transcendent glow
from those rare gemstones
buried in the Earth
Enlightened innervision
Prism eyes closed,
laying so patiently still
Twinkling flames of sparkling hope
are eternally rising
Sapphire faith ascending
Crystalline tears of joy
be the spiraling, bright rainbow
to the higher ground
That paradise plane of existence
Soul elevation
Heightened saintly desires
on the celestial horizon
are Sol beautiful
Ever loving aspirations that glow
Carbon brilliance of creation
Resurrected waves of godly radiance
are given to precious few —
Blessed stellar spirits do shine infinitely
Pinnacle of purity reflects mercy brightly
Many stone cold hearts,
nether frozen in dark thoughts,
never reach up to feel
the graceful warmth of salvation
uplifted
through
your
love and mercy
uplifted
through
your
healing embrace
uplifted
through
your
bread of heaven
you
elevate me
through
your sweet glory
and
i
shall be uplifted
through
the
gray storm
with
the
greatest elevation
because
i
gonna make it

'YAH', is all about elevation
His presence is the medication
That's keeps you from wasting away
So do not stay away or even look to disobey
Find a way to pray in order for you not to stray
Try to understand that while on this sac-rate land
'YAH', had already devise a plan for you to elevate and withstand
So do not deny his helping hand or misunderstand
That the creator of this bless land does not demand
He only commands so be a man and grab his hand.
