These... 

These are the days my friend, 
that we thought would never come. 
They are beautiful beyond belief, 
and they are moving fast. 
The seconds fleet by, 
the minutes... are not slow. 
The hours escape detection, 
as I/we get lost in the moment(s)
that surface in the mirror... 
of all time. 

Come closer and look for yourself. 
There are visions to be seen in the reflection. 
The mountains are tall in the beginning 
and are worn down to hills in the end. 
The trees are twigs, that grow to be...
massive giants, 
as in the legends of old. 
They tell us...
that it is all not real. 
But it was all more than...
what they wanted us to see. 

Truth is blinding like the sun, 
and the shadows know
they must flee,
before the Light. 
Do not watch where they go, 
just let them leave. 
Embrace the life, 
the Lord has meant for you to live, 
and be more than you ever dreamed, 
you could be... 
simply by being
with Him.

Premium Member Treason

TREASON



I constructed
A magnificent wall,
A huge impenetrable wall 
All around us
A proud wall
For I wished to protect and defend
At all cost 
And at all time
The most precious gifts of all:
Our love

I fought bravely!
Innumerable battles
I gave
Was hurt
Was injured
I bled almost to
Death
But was not
Defeated 
I stood my Ground
For you
For me
FOR US! 

  
What an irony though,
The wall fell, 
Surprisingly, 
In the course of a single
Night,
Not to an outside enemy
No, nobody could do it,
I swear, 
But to an inside 
ONE,
You see my dearest 
Friend,
The enemy was 
My most trusted
ALLY!

The End of Tomorrow

The End of Tomorrow

When you sit alone in your room, enjoying your solitude and someone tells you, this is the time of your life, the trivial will say you can sleep til ten, in the morning if you want to and you think, why not forever
You know there is no afterlife, you knew that when nine years old Santa Claus, was the woman next door
in drag, handing out gifts, paid for by your mother.
When the doorbell chimes and a Christian sadist makes it clear you must believe in Jesus because you are old and can die, any moment now.
When you listen to the soft breaths of the one you love
and hope you will die first because you can't handle 
the practical side of life.
Then there is the notion there are two of you, if one dies the soul takes abode somewhere else, in a beautiful garden perhaps, and waits to be a soul for someone else.
Think if you had a choice, to be the soul of a donkey in Sudan for all time, carrying the meager belongings of someone fleeing the endless wars.
The conclusion must be if you are still of sound mind
death has some merits after all.

Rip Maradona

The paths of bricks and stones surround my city life
Cold of winter could not touch me still on the Cheragi Hill
No smoldering or bonfire I need here to warm my skin
Less time I watch TV program, not fond of the world soccer
Last night I passed my time listening the great Nusrat Fateh Ali khan
This morning my sight is captivated by- “No more the football legend”
 
Golden days were in the evergreen leaf of football history
Magical legs ran on the green mid field for the FIFA cup
World cup of 1986 knew best this 10th number jersey magician 
Astonished all were in his outstanding playing performance
One of the ever-greatest crown players of the world he was
Now staying rest in peace cause of the blocked coronary arteries 

O God, let him live in Your merciful garden,
Let his eternal soul be the sign of Your peace

Premium Member A New Life


Ezekiel 36:26 “A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.”


He took away my hardened heart,
Pulled it from my body,
Replacing it with a gentler heart,
One who is kinder, more giving,
Believing that God CAN, 
Yes, HE CAN….

He tore the darkness from my spirit,
Swapping it with a light
So sensitive, so tender, so brilliant
That only love can truly see the faith,
Trading the faith for the doubt,
Trading the grace for the greed, 
Trading the light for the blackest deeds…

Where I don’t see a way, 
Where I simply can’t pray,
He reminds me,
With the songs of the stars,
The silence of the forests,
The whispers of a heart,
That, with Him,
There is the promise of life,
Forever, eternity without dying,
Eternity – without even trying,
Because His love, inside 
Abides throughout all time.

Oh, yes, GOD CAN
And, He always understands,
With His own hands
He replaced the dark nature,
With a generous spirit
One who knows that He is alive,
And, because He lives, I’ll never die.

I’m so very thankful that He is mine!
Without His love,
I’d still be lost, without a hope,
Unsure of how to cope…
Because He is with me, I’m blessed,
And I’ll attest to the joy inside,
Joy beyond compare – Joy that comes to those
Who know Jesus, the Prince of Peace,
Wonderful, Counselor, King of Kings,
The Son of God and the reason I believe,
He’s changed my cold heart,
From bad to good, from dark to light,
From destined for hell,
To the promise of a new life with Him

Premium Member Immortal

Immortality is not a thing to strive for,
It's a gift that's given to us, evermore.
For in our hearts, we all live on,
In the memories of those who are gone.

We may not live forever in the physical world,
But our souls will live eternally, unfurled.
For every moment we spend in life,
Will be remembered in the afterlife.

Though our bodies may one day die,
Our spirit will never be denied.
For our souls will live on and on,
In the hearts of those we have loved and gone.

So live your life with a passion and a fire,
For in eternity, you will never expire.
Your legacy will be remembered for all time,
Your immortality will be yours and mine.

Premium Member Timeless Memoirs

Timeless Memoirs
There's photos I will treasure till life ends
Those of delightful family and friends 
Though most I embrace in heart for all time
You I must say are always on my  mind.

These pictures belong to special faces
With whom, I find my foolish heart races
Those I've loved, the memories linger on
But mostly in mind is my number one.

Friends I have gathered along life's highway 
Some pass through my mind every single day
Fresh as daisies in life's floral bouquet
Picked for their admirable inner ways.  

I recall them often and can’t forget 
Lovely times we had, and some to have yet
Words don't come easily, as tear drops fall
For those dearly departed, most of all.

Timeless memoirs I have affection for 
Are kept safe in my heart for evermore
Mainly the one who caused my heart to sing
Indelible you, who gave my life wings.

Soon Enough, Part Ii

...The wedding was planned for that fifth year,
but when it came Rob sadly did say:
“I’m being deployed, they’re put us on alert,
I’m sorry love, but I must go away.”
She was in tears, but what choice had they?
What could she do but curse their luck?
The wedding was postponed, and Rob deployed,
saying,”It’ll be over quickly enough.”

But conflicts drag on and for the next three years
Rob was stateside for only four weeks.
In that short time they made a daughter,
a little squirt that they named Genevieve.
Facing fire each day made Rob sport grays,
just surviving was brutally tough,
when his term was up he decided
that for his county he’d given enough.

When he came home he looked worse for wear,
and was missing two fingers on his left hand,
she ran to him, said in no uncertain terms:
“Tomorrow you’re giving me that gold band.”
At a justice of the peace they finally said their vows,
it was simple, but they were in love,
laying in bed that night, he said to his wife:
“This day couldn’t come fast enough.”

Eight years had passed, another girl was born,
but one day Charlotte felt short of breath,
at the hospital the doctor looked grim,
saying,”We’ve just got results from the test.”
A cancer it seemed had gone undiscovered,
but they’d hit it with all their best stuff.
As the months passed she looked worse and worse,
the chemo just did not do enough.

By her bedside, with tears in his eyes
he said,”We have not had enough time!
After all the delays I thought we would be
growing old by each other’s side.”
She smiled weakly, and said to him:
“I know this is going to be rough,
but our girls need you, you are their world,
I know that you'll be strong enough.”

When her day came Rob was a wreck,
but never did he leave her bed,
towards the end she looked up at him
and in quiet whisper she said:
“Do not be afraid of what is to come,
I’ll be looking down from above.
What’s a few decades compared to all time?
We’ll have our eternity soon enough.”

He said,”That day cannot come soon enough.”
