eveything glows
     is reflectve
       nothing happens

garlands of blossom
the wonder of it all
   cowslips in  flower
     buttercups bloom
colour
     shines golden

           in the heart of nature
visible
    vulnerable
tender warm&
                    true
that
   something special
look
   more closely
at
   beautiful shapes
unsophiticated

draw close
    to the looking glass
                          of nature
splashed
with love
       brings out tenderness
entirely possessed
by
   the rhythm of the day
watching
     we marvel
     in patience &hope
each morning
a happening
         to feel
as day
     succeeds day
the invisible
           hidden from sight
as summer
     grows within

La Luna

Come to me once the moon turns on her light

Not the crescent sweetheart

There's no half measures for us tonight

The sound of twilight's calling

Midnight awaits the sight of love

To be certain she won't miss it

Luna shines down from above

Embrace the starlit dancefloor

The band plays as we draw close

Hear the music of my whispering

As on moonbeams we float

Offer me your lips, your surrender, your submission

Choirs of angels celebrate

You can hear them if you listen

Exhale the doubts and let them go

As your heart beats to this tune

For nothing takes your breath away

More than kisses beneath a moon

Premium Member My God, Thank You For Cheering Me Up

September 21 Scripture Meditations Based on Mark 4-6

Key Verse– Mark 6:50 For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.

MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR CHEERING ME UP

Thank You for cheering me up in my pain
Caused by sinfulness-sting of transgression-stain…
You are my great Healer, granting wholeness’ gain
Truly, Your salvation-ointment is never in vain.

Thank You for cheering me up in my shame
Caused by pride’s embarrassment and blame…
You are my merciful Encourager with pursuit of forgiveness’ aim
Truly, Your humility exemplifying meekness is always aflame.

Thank You for cheering me up in my ache
Caused by hypocrisy’s pretension, deceitfully fake…
You are my merciful Encourager giving me courageous shake
Truly, Your rebuking chastisement is ready to wake.

Thank You for cheering me up in my shock
Caused by worldliness’ smiting knock…
You are my wise Designer against confusion’s lock
Truly, Your quality standard is a perfection-rock.

Thank You for cheering me up in my woes
Caused by persecutions from attacking foes…
You are my mighty Defender, shielding me from perilous blows
Truly, Your protecting safeguard is a fortress as to You I draw close.

Thank You for cheering me up in my pouts
Caused by discontentment, worries and doubts…
You are my ready Provider with bountifulness’ shouts
Truly, Your abundant satisfaction is away from crises’ routes.

Thank You for cheering me up in my guilt
Caused by trespasses’ filthy silt…
You are my gracious Transformer with goodness-built
Truly, Your kindness-charge is free from evil’s tilt or wilt.

Premium Member Indictment of Hope

I have never told you how I feel,
Only through love is life made real,
I would never let you into my heart,
You've never left me; we were not apart.

I intend to abandon my nomadic status, 
I inspect the finances, but no apparatus,
I love quiet in my heart, or rather, loudly,
If I could see us rapt, I'd dream proudly.

Spare me from the agony of heartache,
In my life, I've never felt what's at stake,
To embrace you is my ultimate dream,
Any time you draw close, I crave to scream.

To slump you a piece of heaven to settle,
I might tell you how much I can handle.

On earthen shores are treasures

                                 Of love, of joy, of life

                                A family's forever bond

                            The children, Husband, Wife

                           Treasure troves of memories

                          Within' these earthen treasuries

                          The blessed earthly life of years

                     And yet, can break, and rush to tears

                   The tears like diamonds fall like the sands  

                      Lift them Father, within Your hands,

                       The broken hearts in sorrows weep  

                     And in Your love, please. Father, keep  

                    Those washed in tears sweet memories

                         Flows from earthen treasuries

                  Comfort the broken, draw close and near
 
                          Drying, every diamond tear

                          
                                         Amen

Premium Member Remember When

Remember when we could still stand
To gaze upon some virgin land
Appreciate the beauties of the Earth?
Remember when the flowers bloomed in May,
How we lived, day to day
When little things still had intrinsic worth?
Remember when there were no fears out there beyond the fence?
Remember when we still had common sense?

But now it seems so far away
Though it happened only yesterday
The tremor's still a-shaking in my heart.
And now there's just a stoneage silence
Born of but a moment's violence
Standing sentry in a landscape torn apart.

     The heat came down like a mountain falling in the sea
     The sky lit up like a thousand suns
     Ten million souls cried in agony
     Hung in the air, then faded out as one.

Sorry, don't like to steal your sleep, my dears
Didn't mean to probe your deepest, darkest fears.
But I keep having this terrible dream, you see
You can't imagine how it makes me feel
When I wake, draw close to me
Tell me, was it really real?

Remember when things didn't seem
So pointless so gone extreme
That we could let the children play outside?
Remember when the Grand Alliance
Worked so hard for world compliance
Yet how they finally made us go and hide?
Remember when the world that was
Was still a place for having dreams 
How strange the thought of that now seems.

But now it seems so long ago
A million miles from what we know
The Final Crime committed now at last.
So now it's all a weary show
As on and on and on we go
Our living time is now - the Past's the Past.

Christian Belt

Seeing their hustle is dorsal and prismatic,
Smoking and drinking acclimated with optimistic, 
Trading on drugs for survival...Baron my title,
Yield to my subjects,
Robbed billonaires of their earthly mantle,
High at sects,
Placing daily bread on candle,
Caring for windows,orphans and homeless,
Lives don't need to be in grant of being wretched and contrite,
Draw close to that fight,
Prospective responsibility to nurture and raise them from the scratch,
Satisfied with words alone not gonna render delight, 
Sharing bread with the starving kalibres is our badge,
Rough and uncomfortable will their pillow be to the rich,
In their weep.....it's a deal,
In their shoes,....will see what is behind the snitch, 
Seasons in the sun,...our time and their meal,
Suicide may be a remedy at the long run,
Answer you are buh don't know,
Alienating heroes and heroines of tomorrow's new world in ages,
Their future filmed in a burning snow,
Aristocrats to be!
Not watched clearly though,
Author their today as history and inspire we,
Not the end of their life,no matter how much they sow,
Appearance not accountable,wish to deprive win,
Hard work to even cover their dreams,....but will yours be uncovered?
Little is a saving substance,...why stay as dead,
Alive in them as Love,and in God with faith paired.

Premium Member Pearls of Grace

Matthew 13:46 (KJV) “Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.”


Poured out, over the sea
Soundless thoughts, breath of peace,
Sincerest song, flowing in waves,
Feelings of light, soft and soothing,
Poured out, over the sea…

Rising to the surface,
In hues of grace, deserving
Pearlescent gentling, like seeds
In whispers of glorious feelings,
Bleeding into the silence, stillness…

Pearls, perfect little emblems
Remembering those who believe,
Souls who grieve because He bled,
Souls who see – He is the reason,
Each pearl has its grace, its season…

Poured out, over the sea,
Beneath the surface, trembling
Cradled by sands, the bed,
Believing, I can see… beneath
The surface of the sea, where pearls rest…

All those pearls, waiting for me,
Blessings more pure than I can dream,
Blessings more beautiful than I can guess.
Blessings, more amazing than I can expect.
Blessings, who tremble – never regretting…
The wonder of a pearl who shares God’s grace,
His favor, His mercy, His unending display…

Of love that is everlasting and so amazing,
Love, His blessing to all who draw close to…
This pearl, His presence, the grace that surely blesses!
