Dear Heavenly Father
May our lights shine brightly
No matter how big or small
We often overlook the significance of seemingly small lights
We are delighted to be chosen as a light in the world
Influencing others for Your glory

What is to be expected? Mr Trump finally was elected.'
Before was Biden.' Yet there were forces behind him
Holding gold? And other riches.' Influencing this world
By almost un-seen stiches.' Garnering power destroying
So much reveling and disporting.' Deploying much lust'
Of world the apperatus, the opperating machine just how
Much did they own? Seventy percent? Or thirty? Unknown
Or so it seems.' Yet they could give a racehorse as a gift
I would guess a dozen yachts, small armies of influence
You get my drift? On whats what? So would they go easy?
Into an unfriendly night.' Or would they hold onto their levers of might.? Might they not consider? We shall appear
To do less.? And any in power we'll hand some real stress
Along with an advisory' on just how much they can do.!
To instill a charade of difference.? Just a thought now mind
You!!)

If I could talk, what would I say
Would I use my words in a major way
Will the world listen to my aggressive voice
Or would they walk away and leave me with remorse
Don't tell me the answer, just leave me lonely
My heart can't take another person being phony
So just leave me out here on the ocean shore
To talk to the only person who loves me more
It's not the air but the shadow of my mind
That blocks the sun when it's trying to shine
So I'm going to speak my words from negative to positive
Influencing myself to think clearly more often
I'm going from a doubt of fear to believing in myself
Start talking with aggression to everyone else
No more being self-conscious and talking in silence
My voice is now going to be heard no more being quite
I know when I speak, I'm going to be a force to be reckoned with
No more being in the background. I'm making an emotional shift
I'm taking over the world until death silence me
So everyone be aware my voice is going to be a masterpiece!!!

ravens croak
applauding twilight
larks churr
saluting sunrise
a last dance over
an inverted verge.
a perpetual encounter
the last mesh of murk
against gleams of glow
held in abeyance,
opposites wrangling
like birth and demise
asking intricate questions
preserve or discharge
uncertain anxieties
ravens claim temporal flesh,
their ravenousness relished,
dominant despotism
it seems.
yet our lark’s song resonates
stirring our species
influencing our intimate impressions,
channelling subconsciously
our choice
around that inverted verge
eternally guarding us

You must have a light heart
For the influence to start.
Focus on the hopes of today
With faith in Jesus and no delay.
The daily grace, love and peace
Brings smiles, blessings and release.
We were made to sing and soar!
Don't be earthbound, reach for more!
Influencing others to follow
God's power takes away the pithy shallow,
Leads you in joy with weight like gold,
Seriously, but flying in peace, young or old.

Earth is a beehive , where humanity resides,
Entering through the same door , side by side.
Yet , we dwell in seperate cells , unique and apart,
Individual lives , experiences , and heartfelt starts.
This shared entrance , a common birthright,
Unites us in vulnerability , in morning light.
Though paths diverge , and perspectives widen,
Our interconnectedness remains , like honeycomb within.
Like bees in harmony , we work as one,
Influencing each other , beneath the golden sun.
Each cell a world , each life a tale,
Together forming the hive , without fail.
We are united , we are together as one,
A tapestry woven , with threads of every tone.
Embracing our differences , we find our strength,
In this delicate balance , our humanity takes length.

verbs stacked themselves against a cabinet
each ready to jump into the story
influencing the writer in subtle ways
flitting and flying sent a butterfly
they were snapped up and used
jumping sent a kangaroo and a frog
croaking was thrilled to see these ideas
he had not been able to come up with anything
starving knew she did not have a chance today
the writer had eaten a six-egg omelet with cheese for lunch

When poetic silence ,
spoke to me
through midnight violence,
it kept my restless heart calm~
as I was hypnotized in a trance,
waltzing sleeplessly
on an island so reckless,
The soothing petals in my garden
were now a scent of serenity,
I hear the calling of poetic royalty
in diamond dunes,
influencing me to question
the purity of my presence,
So I thank the stars for
bringing me back to reality

Artificial intelligence of technological prevalence
Blessing it is, and beautiful, when beheld for its beneficial presence…
Challenging authentic intellectual quest
Driving and directing tenacious mindfulness-zest…
Elevating real wisdom toward discrete use
Failing to surpass sincerity of earnest poetic muse…
Good is its impact along God-blest economic worth
Hoisting income mobility against financial dearth…
Influencing globally for progress and development
Just let us be consciously aware that such is the trend at the moment…
Kindling authentic prudence along kindness of sincere might
Love of human heart is AI's lack especially if self-interest takes flight.
Many are the flaws of AI; but facing its imperfection with wisdom
Nurtures beauty in seeing it along perspective of academic freedom

June 3 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Job 13-15
Key Verse – Job 13:3 Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.
PRAISE BE TO GOD WHO LISTENS TO US
WHEN WE SPEAK TO HIM
Praise be to God for listening to us
when we speak to Him by His:
Grace about our guilt’s struggles
Goodness along His gift of salvation
Grandeur upon His granted strength
Guidance, girding our spiritual sustenance
Greatness, governed through His sovereignty
Job 14:20 Praise be to the Lord for prevailing over us with His:
Help against our helplessness
Holiness along His heavenly heralding
Hope to hover before our hopelessness
Honour that humbles us for our health-happiness
Hoisting against humiliating and hampering hindrances
Job 15:11 Praise be to the Saviour for
His consolations always:
Inspirational along His virtues
Innumerable and victorious
Influencing valiant vows
Important, never vain
Instilling values. Amen!

I would much rather be a member of the minority capable of critical thinking,
as opposed to a member of the majority susceptible to easy influencing.

In the interview board of the portfolio
The question asked,
How so? Is it not fornication?
The ripley's reply was negative.
“As you shifted the family tree into a money plant
This is basically a spine inclination in influencing.
The shadow and the light. And the gray in daylight.
The intrepid tree shall learn to grow there. There.”
The question paper was asking again. “P.O Box?”
The mustang speed in the reply came, “ Digital, greetings?”
“You tell me, at all. Since it is all about you. Is it not?”
Pondarance.
Stress or,
May or,
Say or,
Vit D Organic!
Lines. Line breaks. Different strokes. Different brushes.
To spell oracle these days you need simply three.
Wind catcher sounds
“P-reach”, Saucer and UFO!

,,Crying doesn't help", a participator always has to hear it atleast twice week.
Equal they say.
50/50
We'll never win.
I'll never put that much effort as a participator again.
Dwell into the classtests I guess? I just hope I won't fall like the trees because of people influencing them.

When we stare at the mirror
Is it the reflection of our reality?
Or is it the curtains of their design?
Is it the similarity in our diversity?
Or is it the diversity in our similarities?
Is this the life we choose to live?
Or is this the life we were taught to live?
Are we influencing society?
Or are we influenced by society?
Do we shape our destiny?
Or is our destiny shaped for us?
These are the questions of an innocent child
To peek through the lenses and understand the reality of life.

Arousing achievement ardor
affirming assertive aspirations
Beaming brightly
beyond besetting blight
Carving creations consciously
circumspectly with care
Dreams are stars of clarity that direct
delighting desires to dare and do…
Empowering exploits midst pain-exposure
earnestly enabling with empathy
Freedom to fight fear
fortitude flight fueled by faith
Girded while governed for growth
geared toward going then glowing
Hope-hoisted held high
healing against woes' hindrances
Illumining then instructing
influencing to ignite interesting interactions
Jubilantly pursuing joy
junking jabs of wrong judgment
Kindling kindness
kaleidoscopic in its worthy kinship...
Leading in loving the LORD
as light* toward learning-leaps!
*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.
