Premium Member Lost Words

Words are slowly entered into computer word processors
Words are slowly photocopied into ebooks as are magazines, newspapers
Disappearing into text messages, faxes, emails _
Soon every one will have to use an electronic device to reach words...

What if?___Satellites start to fall from the sky...
What if?___The satellites images fail; no longer reach earth?
What if?___Total black out from the satellites?
Will people be able to communicate with each other..
Or won't they have a clue as how to speak to their fellowman?

Just some really weird random thoughts that has been bouncing in my head__


Premium Member Second Chance

When death came, I declared that I could not leave soon
For I had not seen the summer flowers in bloom

Starting them from just a seed back when there was still snow.. white
As they began maturing, I could tell each one on sight

Just large enough to be transplanted that spring day
The blooms were visible in thought only, in May

The angel came in early morn to take me by the hand
I bid him let me stay because my life was just sand

Now I have a new responsibility here
Down where the flowers bloom and to me are so dear

Life is not just about the house, washing the dishes clean
It's about love, our fellowman;  only a few I've seen

Thank you death angel for letting me stay that day
I'll give this life that I've got left the best day's pay

 "God is not our butler, He is our master." Pastor Hagee     
Some days I ask God for so much
I need this blessing or I need your help here
I say I need a vacation
Also, a little time for cheer

How many days do I think of others
Asking God to bless them
Asking God to heal the sick
Or hurting, or whatever they need today

Just because I am weak
And can't do much anymore
There is no need to be self-centered
All God's blessings clutch

I need to ask God to use me in some way
Help me think more of others and pray, pray, pray
There is war torn areas
Needing peace to descend

I want to be of service
Somehow, and care for my fellowman
Forgive me, God in your Son's name
For always thinking you are my slave





A poem in the making, hope to finish it soon.

Premium Member It's All About the Heart

(Rhyming Couplets) 



The book of our life's much unknown,which means, is not ever seen or read. 
Yet man thinks that they know it all, but it's all in their head 
Life is filled with so much sorrow, pain and stress each day 
Partly to blame is sin and all the evil that men do. 

Men in their heart the love of God for other things keep replacing 
And so the love in their hearts for their fellowman grows cold,uncaring and is dying. 
Rich, poor, famous or unheard of, beautiful, ugly, short or tall 
What does it matter? We're all sinners,saved only by grace,and that's all 

If all men were to change their wicked ways today and turn around 
In this world kindness and love in the name of God would be more found 
But sin, grief,suffering and death, are only man's fate to grasp for now 
Till Jesus returns or they listen His gentle call and one day to Heaven they go.

If

If  

(inspired by Rudyard Kipling's Poem, If)

If I could relinquish all judging to Almighty God
Concerning myself on where my feet alone trod
Where my mind lounges
What my mood would convey
I believe I'd know peace of mind throughout the day

If I could be a sample ..fruit of wisdom heard
Regarding my brother's footsteps more intently than his word
If I could sow treasure when occasion coaxes me to intercede 
I believe a flower would emerge from such a planted seed

If I could rebuke gossip and ignore the adulterous call
Still appreciate the lesson taught from shame-producing fall
If I could view the weakest one with mercy-coated eyes
I believe there'd be scant reason to don all disguise

If I could dispense love when hatred is due and never restrict the span
Surrender to patience when urge to explode is primed by fellowman
If I could persist in mending any mendable wrong
I believe I would know freedom as composer of the song

Premium Member Friend In Christ

FRIEND IN CHRIST


What is this, what is this, what is this, I have one friend
Who’s closer to me than my brother?
Closer to me than my mother
Closer to me than my sister, my father
Who is He, Christ Jesus my Lord and King, my friend?
F I C
Means to me friend in Christ
Jesus is a friend to me
F I C
Jesus is a friend in Christ, He’s a friend to me
I wanna  be, I wanna be a friend in Christ
Jesus is, oh yes He is a friend, a friend is Christ,
You are my friend in life
I think twice about you each and every day, every night
A friend in Christ that’s what you are doesn’t matter how close or how far
Don’t wanna be just another surface dweller
I wanna set my place up in heaven
Ooh, oooh oh
I wanna be your friend forever and ever for all eternity
Don’t wanna be caught up in religiosity
I wanna respect my brothers and sisters with Christ curiosity
I wanna love them like the Book says (bible)
I wanna help them like Jesus would
I wanna be there for them on earth
As the Father is for us in heaven
How can I love Jesus when my fellowman I see, him I hate
Don’t wanna be caught then shut out of the gates (of glory)
Don’t wanna be caught up in religiosity
I wanna respect my brothers and sisters with Christ curiosity
I wanna love them like the Book says (bible)
I wanna help them like Jesus would
I wanna be there for them on earth
As the Father is for us in heaven
I’m your friend in Christ
No matter if you’ve been wrong or right
Think bout Christ day and night
Soon we’ll all be caught up in mere flight
I wanna be yours, your friend I am your friend
A friend in Christ

~Comment Collectors~


Just forge ahead when things are
so dark!
Number of comments, do not a good poet 
make into a lyrical lark.


Many comment just to be top on the Community 
Board for heavens sake.
Thinking applause from big numbers must make 
me important, big time! What a fake!


Read the comments, some as are empty as shells.
Some full of speciicity, I count these close to my 
heart as well.


Some come by to correct you in front of others.
Please...... pass me by and go bother another.


Just compose good poetry as best as  you can. 
Reach new heights, forget looking for comments,
You came here to pen your best, for your fellowman!

Premium Member Be Honest

If I proclaim to love the Lord
but hate my fellowman,
the Bible says I'm lying. Love,
not hate, is in His plan.

Bad attitudes towards others
if they're fueled day and night,
soon morph into destructive hate,
a vitriolic blight.

Though love can be so powerful,
hate can be just as strong.
We don't like to admit sometimes   
our feelings are so wrong.

We choose to sugarcoat the truth
when hate is in our hearts. 
We cling to euphemisms 
while we throw our poison darts.

Sometimes we're hypocritical,       
refusing to confess
to sins like hate; yet we still think
the Lord will surely bless!

Those motivated by ill will
will never know true peace.
They'll moan throughout a friendless life
and find no sweet release.

Unfolding

Unfolding.

When you kept getting up
After you've fallen
Endurance was already there

When you kept fighting
the anger in you
Peace was already there

When you understand
the why - way you behave
Knowing others is already there

When you finally let go
of low self esteem
Your true value is already there

When you did your best
to conquer your fears
Courage was already there.

When you complained
about life's injustices
Justice was already there

When you opened the door
to let isolation out
humaness was already there

When you finally got fedup
with your own misery
Happiness was already there

When you kept rejecting 
your worst behaviour
Goodness was already there

When you gave up hatred
of your fellowman
God's image was already there

When you finally gave up
unrelenting guilt 
A clean conscience was already there 

When you felt lost
because Paradise was lost
Paradise found was already there.

Premium Member I Love You As I Pray For You Always--

Empty hearts;
Broken faces;
Displaced smiles;
Feelings of ungratefulness;

Crowded minds;
Rushing times;
Points of uneasiness;
Hurting rhymes...

My Oh!!! My
Why?

Broken promises;
Misplaced harnesses;
How can I embrace my fellowman;
Where is his love;
Why he hate me so;
And what am I to do when he says NO!
I go to my heart,
and I love his heart;
Even tho, even tho he says go,
he says no;
I love him anyway,
cause Jesus says now, today;
For ever one needs someone;
For you don't in this world alone;
You don't live on this world alone;
I may can help you you may can help me;
I pray for you anyway, everyday,
you're not alone I pray for you every day;
For you don't live on this world alone;
I pray for you always....
I love you as I pray for you always.
Selah
