I feel him there all day and night.
In my dreams, he speaks to me and makes my burden light.
His voice is like a soft and beautiful cymbal.
His turn of phrase makes my heart quick and my mind nimble.
His righteous utterance of confidence during the day,(sigh) shows me the way.
In retrospect, he was always there during my jejunity.
My father left me and my mother was not caring enough to love me.
He laid his finger on my heart and I felt his love.
His sweet and indomitable breath guided me to rise above.
I was abused by many antagonists and callous people over the years.
He fed me the fruit of his righteousness and chased away my fears.
He has made my life bountiful.
He has rectified my inefficient life so that I can become skillful.
In my winter solstice, I feel that time is nearing the fall of my withering and fermenting flesh to the earth.
My prayer is that my soul will bloom into immortal mirth.

For the faithful be encouraged by John chapter 14 verse 18
Spring sunshine false security.
New life weak, lacks impunity!
Relying on instinct, not ingenuity!
Weather lacking continuity!
Fickle, tantamount to cruelty!
Naturalist blame human lunacy,
some agree with their importunity
Some folks, if given the opportunity,
would form a world community.
To stop our polluting abnormality.
Their key for all, amenability.
The power of reason, their munity.
No more governmental jejunity!
They'll work to create bio immunity!
At one with nature, total unity!
