Lifetime potter of youngs' hearts and minds
Entrusted in her care, such selfworth they’ll find
Ninja to many obstacles drawing strengths from the Divine
Generously share God's blessings bringing you sunshine.
As our attention softens, bliss beats rise,
from a centreless fulcrum at our core,
ego recedes, we cease to weigh and size,
as God’s blessings continue to in-pour,
of which our vibrant presence keeps no score.
Dwelling in the heart we slowly evolve,
in surrender, with no problems to solve,
for we have entrusted God with life’s task,
thus we stand still as illusions revolve,
witnessed as in divine light we so bask.
People say it's normal for some part of your body to be lopsided,
not everything is perfectly symmetrical.
What if it's my heart that's lopsided?
I think it's because parts of it slowly fell away
After I entrusted it to you.
The flame of life, a burning ember bright,
Passed down through ages, bathed in starlight.
Each generation, a link in the chain,
A story continues, whispered by rain.
Reproduction dance, a vital ballet,
Ensures the future finds its destined way.
New cells divide, a wondrous design,
A blueprint for life, a future to define.
Two halves combine, a genetic blend,
A unique creation, a story that transcends.
Eyes that may sparkle, a laugh that may ring,
A legacy carried, on hope's gentle wing.
Diversity blooms, a vibrant array,
Of features and talents, lighting the way.
New minds to explore, new skills to ignite,
The fabric of humanity, shines ever so bright.
Though challenges loom, and darkness descends,
The cycle continues, where hope never ends.
For in each new life, a promise is shown,
A chapter unwritten, in stories unknown.
So cherish this process, this gift from the past,
A future entrusted, forever to last.
For in reproduction, humanity thrives,
A universe teeming, where life truly survives.
Vibrant and radiant life abounds
as lovers, sealed around devotion
thrive midst nature's care...
mindful of paradise
blest, blooming, blissful
entrusted to their stewardship
for functional optimization
they both are committed to fulfill
since trees and vegetation witnessed...
the Creator exhorted them to
"Go and multiply."*
*Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

To anyone, never extend your paining hand
Hand that they might twist
Twist cos of distrust and hatred
To anyone, never reveal your tears’ secret
Secret to shield antagonists of making you cry more
More never reveal to anyone your fragile side
Side anyone might deeply explore
Explore to agonize you more beyond
Beyond of your inner secrets
Secrets buried can shun becoming prisoner
Prisoner of your worries towards your enemies
Enemies making you live in perpetual terror
Terror because an honest man was betrayed
Betrayed by a traitor who is confident
Confident because the perjurer is entrusted
Entrusted for breaking the truth
Truth no one will ever reveal
Reveal and expose themselves
Not every truth needs disclosure
Disclosure kills trust people have in you
You trust yourself, as you cannot betray yourself.
Poem by N. Mugisho
I’ve tasted the saliva of the eyes tears;
I’ve entrusted in the blood that flows;
Plummeting from the heart that sighs
O’ well
Well are the purdons that perishes;
Indwelling the eletric sparks;
That physically holds up the socks;
I lay down with mine passions dreams;
While conveying conjugal voices
Kisses of spiritual souls;
While resisting physical sparks and boils
I am encase in the vessel of the devil’s grip
And it’s ever so temperal

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr.2025©
One's disrespect for power and control regularly
Greets me with different names yet they have
Similar narcissistic traits. Naivety
Innocence lost, cloudy judgments, trust broken,
Smiling faces wearing masks, stabbed slowly
Hidden masks, and ulterior motives yet in time
The facade will soon reveal that time is the truth
Naivety
Emotionally injected, mentally, and physically raped.
Humiliation lies deeply suffocating and imprinted
with distress assuming I was being protected and
guarded by someone I entrusted. Naivety
The fish in the sea,
the birds that have dominion in the air,
the animals of the forest,
these habitats entrusted to our care.
We should treat all of God's creatures
with honor and respect,
must be good stewards of our mother earth,
never let her feel neglect.
God has granted us dominion
over His beautiful earthly domain,
to walk upon this earth softly
and never to leave a stain.
A letter received with glee, read with happiness, wrote with love,
Sent in faith, dreamed with hope, with prayers prayed over it.
Oh, friend I miss you so, miss your smile,
Your voice, your perty blue eyes, her blonde hair,
But most of all, I miss your kindness, honesty, compassion,
Your hopes and dreams that you entrusted in me.
I miss your letters, full of sunshine, family bond, holy promises.
Oh sister, I miss you so.
And now, you're out there somewhere in this world,
taking it day by day, trusting in our sweet savior.
Someday, I know our paths will cross, and our tears will mingle,
with happiness and joy, as our prayers will be answered.
I cherished time walking through Cherry Blossoms,
And when it is to turn pink, it’s mind-blowing.
It’s like a pink rug situated on both sides in Kyoto,
Experiencing the Promised Land while having Cotto.
I love observing the farmland plowing,
The fields appreciate him by bowing.
I am dismayed at the strangers who see me trespass,
Imagine them complaining so fast to the gran who owes the meadow.
Envisioning her catching me while I'm passing through her swath,
She solicits me if I'm trying to display this as my path.
Visualizing my agitation after I get busted,
Then the old wrinkled gran will make me entrusted.
For sure assign me to babysit the offspring,
I’ve to make him feel like a king,
Oh God! I cannot envisage it!
Blinks of teary-filled eyes see on at a diplegic self
yet mindful transparency is willing me back
Back to my body as sinful warning zones
alarming have deluged my mind
Seized are my winks , my signals , codes in tact
I deemed the eye of imagination unkind
The intruder remains faceless knowing anon
I’m entrusted to an astral body and its danger
Spiritual warnings of facultas cognoscitive,
Descartes’ existence of corporeal self, even stranger
I am conscious and sure these be blessings
Or maybe an unconscious of the intueoritive
and what I immediately perceived were passion’s messing’s
with the right amount of awareness to shift
Senses much livelier and much more clear,
lucidly leaving the "physical world" adrift
Diplegic with a clarity of intelligo of an unhinging fear
Practiced, I am using my symbols with inner sight
and a poetic aptitude, my mindset re-sets a dream
A vision appears to me, it appears to be my hand
penning quickly, a dream within a dream, I re-write
the script and scenes which aren't what they seem
We are globally doomed
If we don't work with nature
Working against nature
Is just a short cut to our end
We return God's favour
By taking care of the earth
Destroying them is limiting ourselves to see
And experience the goodness of God
God entrusted us humans
To take good care of our gifts from God
And that's all nature.
I entrusted my heart to someone unworthy,
Now I'm lost in a sea of hurt.
The pain I never invited overwhelms me,
Drowning out life's other blessings.
I sought answers, questioning my own judgment,
But tears fell like relentless rain.
They've stopped welling up in my eyes,
Now they flow through every word I write.

Believing that I'm entrusted by God with precious moments it's my prayer that I'll optimize time* with my:
...heart grateful to the Almighty
for His breath bestowed
...soul blissful in praising the Lord
midst life everlasting
...faith clinging to divine hand
in making a difference on earth
...hope beaming with gracious
assurance for a heavenly home
...body of healthy well-being
and personality, always radiant
...spirit revived to serve
exuding praise-filled mirth
...commitment for reaching-out
passion toward sharing peace
...devotion to ministerial endeavors
fulfilled with kindness-zeal
...family united against distance
midst loving partnership
...GOD embracing me while
meeting in prayer.
*Ecclesiastes 3:11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
