ISOLATION, UNCERTAINTY, EXPECTATION
He sent me his music composition,
a solo piano piece for Isolation.
I started listening with anticipation,
as my mind went overdrive with imagination
that transported me into different dimensions.
Taking me back in time, like in the 18th century,
dancing to this music, a contemporary
on a huge stage with no other dancers, no audience
dressed in a white below the knee dress
with hair pulled up adorned with white flowers
with some strands of curls draping my neck.
My bare feet leaping, twirling, tip-toeing
with my body expressing and my face emoting
inner emotions of sadness, uncertainty,
concern, faith, hope or expectation.
Sadness for our pandemic situation and isolation.
Uncertainty for when we can have the resolution.
Concern for our loved ones and for all the nations.
Faith and hope for all of us to have to be united,
to give the utmost cooperation to quickly achieve
our expectations of slowing this pandemic,
discovering treatments and ultimately, a vaccine.
Then I was taken back to the present
seeing him playing his piano, playing this piece
with gusto, passion, intensity
how a great maestro plays
dressed in plaid shirt with shades
of green and peach and blue jeans.
Surprisingly, I was taken into the future
watching a symphony and there he is
in his tuxedo, conducting this piece.
It ended with thundering applause.
The pianist standing and him turning
and bowing to the audience, still applauding.
And then I saw myself in the audience
dressed in a black dress clapping,
cheering him and this piano piece.
The music played for eight and a half minutes
leaving me more appreciative of music
thinking what it can do for us and how it affects us
in positive ways, especially at this current crisis.

May 22 Faith in God Bible Meditations Based on Ezra 4-7
Key Verse – Ezra 4:3 …We ourselves together will build unto the LORD God...
FAITH IN GOD WHO HELPS US BUILD LIVES WITH HIM
God helps us build lives with Him by His foundation
Since He is the Source of our eternal salvation
Also designing our new creation and transformation
Surely anchoring us and our faith upon His truth’s protection.
God helps us build lives with Him by His wisdom
Since He is the Giver of Scriptural freedom
Also instructing us to advance His kingdom
Surely bracing us and our faith upon Biblical Christendom.
God helps us build lives with Him by His teaching
Since He is the Discipler Who answers our searching
Also directing us toward ministry’s out-reaching
Surely strengthening us and our faith by His Word’s preaching.
God helps us build lives with Him by His Gospel story
Since He is the Redeemer of our souls from hell’s fury
Also delivering us from sin-caused misery
Surely cheering us and our faith for joyful victory.
God helps us build lives with Him by His commitment
Since He is the Setter of our gracious achievement
Also allowing our ministry involvement
Surely blessing us and our faith with His empowerment.
God helps us build lives with Him by His mercy
Since He is the Defender of our stewardship’s fervency
Also enabling our service-persistency
Surely propelling us and our faith for diligence-consistency.
God helps us build lives with Him by His might
Since He is the Upholder of our steps in His light
Also guiding our choices against worldliness’ flight
Surely enabling us and our faith for prayerful height.

Golden sun enlightens contours of violet arc
Painting mauve motifs on canvas of cosmic art
When constellation of dewdrops sparkle on grass
And thoughts of your allure enchant my heart,
As in pristine meadows of sensuous past I walk
Holding hands of dawn to reminisce love that was
When you come along, cheering one more dance--
Oh, how I regret, not kissing that ebullient morn,
Strolling in memoirs of your favorite garden
Where gardenias court scent of rose blossoms,
Crafting ode of love that's silent on fervor--
Alas, you've never heard rhythm of my poem,
Shrouded in metaphors that proffer not a clue
But it's always been true: there's no one but you
For you see it enunciated in language of runes
Where dreams you dream are passing through.
Wish you knew I worship the ground you walk on
And love everything about you just the way you are
And ache for your moon, wish for your stars,
For no one but you makes me feel--I have it all.

“God within me is the enjoyer of the aroma
As also this dopamine boosting flavour I taste
I surrender all pleasures to the dweller of my heart
Breath by breath thus that my soul presence be chaste”
I wrestle symbolically every day,
While whisking my whimsical mind
For palatable aroma of java-laced cream
Each tantalizing sip satiates soul scarcity,
I taste dopamine-inducing elixir
Idly percolating aromas amplify, blissfully
My psyche turns olfactory with each breath
Savoring pureness of quench coffee
True coffee lovers' sacred rite
Bred from mountain slope flora
Large, roasted grains
Combined with chives
Espresso of our selection
Invigorating the poetic muse.
A cloying symphony lingers
Caramel, chocolate, hints
Roasted beans croon a melody
Susurrous sumptuous surreptitious
startling soul's sempiternal shields
Java ushered to an ambrosian niche
Where time halts and fears sway
All worries dissolve
Java-infused serenade heals this soul.
Weary-treating opulent, black potion
Comforting and cheering
Sips reveal life's essence
A hint of sonata transcends clash
Every sip is a sensory delight
A fabulous favor, a flavor flipping
Utopian bitterness-sweetness mix
An inexhaustible smorgasbord style.
Aphonic aqua vitae aurifies my soul
Seeking solace in stories of slight delights
In this brew, I uncover truth
A breath of blissfulness brings youth
Let aroma spread as I sip and relish
Nurturing and boldening my soul
I am enamored with Java core virtues
An idyllic instant resolves everything
Breath to breathe, I'll purify my soul
Savor and sustain every drop
During my coffee ritual
Feel a link to a bit victual.
We have been forbearing your oppression for a long time,
Your threats; placing your pistol on our foreheads for a crime;
Shoving your dagger straight toward our chests, as though piercing,
Watching our helpless nervousness and mockingly cheering;
All these, like celluloid terror scenes, are in our mind screens,
Is it easy to turn our bloodshed into duet scenes...?
Our loads are hanging heavily as millstones on our necks,
Who could, oh, the burdens you inflict on us, dare to check?
Caste, color, creed, sex, sect, religion, status, and culture,
Have torn our flesh, like a vehement vampire-like vulture;
Why should our skins look milk-like? Why can't yours look Blackberry?
Is skinning a human virtue? Is it, not savagery...?
Remove your gristle elephant-like legs from our weak chests,
With your lion-like rough roars do not keep us pressed for tests;
Like an ant, under your heavy boulders, we endure aches,
Each delicate bone of ours, under your barbarism, breaks;
Stop your cruel oppression, lest the roots that hold you firm,
May uproot you, and will over you their power affirm...!!!

Jackie Robinson and I go way way back
To the spring of nineteen forty-six
A Montreal ballpark on an April afternoon
The day the world was transfixed
The color barrier that existed in baseball
Was about to come crashing down
After many decades of ugly discrimination
Jackie would become renowned
It would take a special kind of individual
To withstand all the slurs and abuse
Young Jackie knew what he'd have to endure
But it was not his nature to refuse
Having a strong and tenacious personality
Not known for giving up a fight
Jackie settled in for a long tough struggle
On which he had long set his sights
It's a time in history I'll always hold dear
That momentous day back then
Forever after ingrained in my psyche
I witnessed this champion of men!
My Dad and I were late arriving at the ballpark.
When we arrived, it was the bottom of the first.
As we entered from the passageway to the left
field bleachers, the crowd was cheering wildly!
I looked to my right and believe it or not
Jackie Robinson was stealing home!!!
This image is ingrained in my memory!
We hit the fair gate at half-past eight,
The sky lit up like candle lit birthday cake.
Fairy floss blew from hand to mouth to hair,
As the Ferris wheel spun; wild dreams in air.
I won a teddy bear, lost the heel of left shoe,
Fumbled the ring toss, knock-'em-downs too.
Screamed on the ghost train; yelled out loud,
Rode the roller coaster to a cheering crowd.
We’re spinning past the neon lights,
Ducking clowns in sequin tights!
They're so spooky when they glare—
With painted grins; cotton-candy hair.
Spinning teacups swirl, twirl and race.
We gasp and giggle, lost in space.
Toffee apples glow like moons on sticks,
As jugglers dance, doing their tricks.
Snow cones glowing, blue and bright,
Stain young tongues with frozen delight.
Hot dogs sizzle in mustard of yellow and gold,
Popcorn spills from buckets too big to hold.
We spin the wheel we tempt our fate.
Hurling beanbags at a wobbly plate.
The crowd surges - nothing's amiss,
As the scent of chaos is encased in bliss.
As the night builds to a roaring close,
The music thunders, smoke billows, and flows.
With fireworks screaming into the night,
Blooming like stars, setting the sky alight.
We laugh, we roar, we chase the light—
Lost in the carnival, long after midnight.
Hearts on fire, stars spinning all around.
Riding our dreams, we're heavenly bound.
We laugh, we roar, we chase the light—
Lost in the carnival, long after midnight.
Hearts on fire, stars spinning all around.
Riding our dreams, we're heavenly bound.
“God is the busiest worker, always fulfilling His roles 24-7.”
Pastor Ed M. Laurena
God* does care for us 24-7
Indeed constant; still true this new normal
Surpassing all friends---bonded together
Affirming “I love you, three times a day”
With their well-meaning, “Take care coz I care.”
God is cheering us 24-7
By reminders from His Word, the Scriptures
Propelling our steps midst varied slogans
Expressing “Just do it,”** or asserting
“Never ever, never ever give up.”***
God is on His throne 24-7
Reigning graciously with omnipotence
Granting eternal life to believers
Transcending the “good life you can afford”****
Sans return of investment’s assurance.
*1Timothy 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

1st place, "BUZZWORDS" Poetry Writing Contest
Sponsored by Kim Rodrigues; judged on 3/9/2022.
Gazing out with midnight half-dreams
a velvet sky ripples on the frosted glass
stars peeping through the open window
the visage veiled in long shadows of grass.
pondering over stories with abrupt end
a journal of thoughts in crevasses of mind
fireflies sprinkling flecks of fragile glows
awakens a young girl from years behind.
several windows now open...one by one
she holds the full moon hiding in clouds
painting vivid dreams on a gossamer sky
curtain rising moments of cheering crowds
she said, wait I am coming
I can see you seeing me.
a smile knocked at the window pane
and she said, I am now free.
sitting at the window seat of her car
winter changed to autumn and spring,
waves of goodbyes rolled... and said,
Wait, some changes only time can bring.
