When you write poems,
there will always be people reading them and reflecting.
Don't worry if you haven't got comments or many people who have seen it yet.
By writing your brain processes the situations again and again, what you might interpret as overthinking, since sometimes you might talk about these much more often suddenly or dream, even though it was 1,2,3 or more years ago..
I call it healing.
It's a protective mechanism.
When you write and write, you might sometimes be sad that you are still not over something even though you have written it.
People say it's therapy isn't it? And that you might get over them like that much more quickly.
When you write, you might start write plenty about the same subject and that's okay.
Since like that you will get more mature and know that being mad at the person still is not the answer.
That the answer is to not pay attention to them anymore.
First my eyes couldn't do anything than look at them,
but now my eyes don't bother it anymore.
Even me going to the restroom is much more important than him.
Which one is your child? I ask
I turn and see the Minnie Mouse Hat
And the professor glasses
A red polka dotted bow cinches this baby's identity
I do not need to see anything else
recognized her instantly
from his dream work
she had no idea
pursued her until she could stand no more
she dumped him hard as coal goes down a chute
did not find each other for twelve years
she had her own soul dreams by now
they burned the sky up
They flocked to church and sang the Christmas carols.
Loudly and proudly, flaunting their Jesus pins, and their pretty children.
Many were annoyed with the shabbily dressed beggar who asked for spare change
As they walked up the hill to their star white church.
Some spoke of him in whispers and laughed in the vestibule.
No one invited him to join them. He was not familiar to them.
The new Samaritan gave him ten dollars for a cup of coffee and a hot meal.
Gladys Know-Everything saw this and reported it to her women. They cackled about it.
Samaritans must be naïve.
Too bad, they thought, thinking this weird man had been taken advantage of.
Jesus saw all of this and more.
He shook his head sadly.
Dropped the ten spot into the hands of a child
Who was walking up with her mother.
She squeezed his hand and smiled,
knowing Him instantly.
INSTANTLY HERE
When my soul
leaves my body
I can see it in my Spirit
When I come to die
my true self shall FLY
I' can feel it in my spirit
as I say bye-bye
as look look on and you say, Lord WHY-WHY
So when I'm gone
No, No! Need to CRY (don''t you cry)
It won't be long
I'll be home, home in the
Arms of GOD'
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
FOR ALL OF ETERNITY
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
FOR ALL OF ETERNITY
as I say bye-bye
as look look on and you say, Lord WHY-WHY
So when I'm gone
No, No! Need to CRY (don''t you cry) I'm now on the Lord's side
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
FOR ALL OF ETERNITY
You'll see me again in NEW JERESALEM
AMEN
Hallelujah

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr.©2018
From anthology “WORSHIP LEADER”
I instantly disliked her.
I don’t know if it was her
Height or her red hair or
Her loudness,
But I immediately
Thought we can never
Be friends. But then
She sat with me at lunch
And I had never laughed so
Hard in my entire life.
Ever
So we became friends
And I have never told
Her that my instant
Impression was that
We could never
Be friends
Why would I
Hurt my
Best friend
Like that?
Live as you please
Life's lovely lease
Dare to abide
Your own joy ride
Give what you've got
Accept your lot
Be beyond fear
For love spawns here
Walk your own path
Seize faith to stuff
Watch how you talk
Words cast your walk
Live beyond fear
For love sculpts near
Live this day well
Dare cast your spell
Know then the truth
In simple proof
All that you seek
Comes as you peek
Faith and hope know
That love must show
Be beyond blame
Wear well your name
Time is a tool
To fool the fool.
Space is the place
To find your face.
Dare to frame smiles
As wonder styles.
Live love that lasts
Now have a blast

I initiate
I give
I forgive all
Love
Lord
Wings flutter as arrow aims
At first glance my heart was yours
Cupid's aim on my heart true
Instantly I fell
