Pieces of your Soul

Pieces of your Soul 
By Michelle Morris 
11/08/2024

Don't let the world keep taking 
Pieces of your Soul 
Don't forget your essence
It's beautiful and bold

You're fashioned from Starlight and Stardust 
There in the distance of the ancient Universe 
You've been made to create Magic 
Miracles and Blessings upon Earth 

Nothing is impossible 
For we can create anything we choose 
The trick is to remember our powers 
For we are born to rule

Not over men or cities 
Or countries or anything else 
We're meant to rule our timeline 
And create our best reality for ourselves 

But somehow we get blindsided 
By all the chaos in the World 
We forget we're only passengers 
On this journey we're meant to help unfold 

So many have lost their way 
Lost pieces of their Souls 
They hurt because they are hurting
They're mindless and a bit broken 

Because no good Soul would torment another 
No good Soul would be unkind to Life 
Harming creatures great and small 
To feel powerful and alive 

For when you're dead inside 
Having sold your Soul for gold
War and mayhem are attractive 
As you forget you ever had a Soul 

There is a way to come back from this 
Through forgiveness and Soul retrieval 
Healing and Guidance from God and His Angels 
To help rid the World of all its Evils 

Those pieces of your Soul 
That you sold through Devil's choices
Can become your ultimate Redemption 
When you begin to listen to Good Voices 

When you become whole again 
Tread on the path of the Light 
Heaven's blessings and Grace 
Will help you on your mission Right 

Like Saul who became Paul one day 
When he changed his life to Good
You can help others with their Lives
Return pieces of Souls to Humanhood

Premium Member While Waiting in Line

Just waiting here and thinking
About some things I'd like to do
Where are you pretty lady?
I want to share with you
These things that I am thinking
To see if you would too
Be pleased to do them with me
From A to Z's a clue

Yeps, everything's the answer
Nothing is a no
From at home reading novels
To all the places we would go
Here and there to everywhere
You just come with me
I'll get it all planned out for us
Us, not me, but we

Could cross the seven continents
Sail the seven seas
What do you say, will you come?
I ask you, would you please?
I want to see your smile
And I can be silly
Yet just to see your face light up
I'd go to great degrees

So please let me surprise you
With all the these plans of mine
Every day a different thing
Don't worry we'll be fine
Get ready for adventure
We won't just sit around
I want to take you 'round the world
You're my queen, my crown

Premium Member Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth Ll

It is in these times we remember
here in the UK her majesty the Queen
in my lifetime Elizabeth so royal
showing real dignity even in her teens

Her coronation before my birth
so in the earliest times on the TV
much and often her presence there
always looked up for then I was wee

The Queen has been a model of majesty
faithful in duty, full of faith in her Lord
showing her belief in the sovereign God
with trust in God's word her sure sword

The amazing miles across the seas
her majesty traveled both near and far
a great lover of her own Scotland
loves its beauty high above every star

Now been on her throne these 70 years
platinum indeed so richly deserved
for all these years of undying service
many challenges but never one she swerved

Now tonight her majesty has gone
her smile not be seen again
a testimony of selfless service
always was her people's friend!

(My thoughts on our majesty Queen Elizabeth reaching 70 years on the throne of Great Britain.
But tonight (08/09/22) sadly has passed from this world and we mourn a great Queen and inspiration who we may never see her likes again.)

Premium Member 'city of the Dead'

The portal to the past exists beyond an old gate,
          in the city of the dead the beloved wait;
   on her elaborate tomb is an ancient date,
              his love so great that he built her a monument.
The entry is serpentine iron, quite ~ ORNATE ~,
         and her tomb-   his architectural excellence;
   in time this man also took up residence,
               it is written ~ he was a man quite prominent.
My research found the story in a document,
          the man built his wife a grand resting place mansion;
    even after her young passing he held his passion,
              coming each day with flowers opulent.
and that he became a recluse  . . . .

Her Christened Day

(This verse is written hristened Dayon 23 Sep. 2011 remembering the occasion of my Loving Daughter SUZANNA CHRISTY’S CHRISTENED DAY)

It is the day she was christened with a name
Which bears the Rock that’s built on Glory
Whose matchless love being showered each moment on her.
She was brought in the arms of His servants
Whose prayers caressed the infant’s soul
To grow in the Lord with His Wisdom and Mercy.
She was laid in the cradle of prayers and blessings
And a great congregation of friendly stars offered its light,
And the happy blooms fluttered around the infant.
She looked happy and with full of smiles,
And every moment of hers penetrated his heart
That he took paint and brush to draw her enthralling portrait.
He read a poem penned on her, and the little soul smiled in joy. 
God’s servants proclaimed her with the name ‘SUZANNA CHRISTY’,
For she hath been God’s Gift answered to their supplication.
The little soul winked its eyes and whispered back ‘THANK YOU, CHRIST.’
He heard the little soul’s voice of joy and they shouted back ‘THANK YOU, LORD.’

Premium Member LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY WORTHY REDEEMER

December 22 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on Revelation 5-6

Key Verse– Revelation 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation.

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY WORTHY REDEEMER			

Lord God, You are my worthy Redeemer with Your salvation-voice
Thank You for looking at me along Your merciful poise
As You did find me in Your love’s choice
Despite my sinfulness prevailing in transgression-noise.

Lord God, You are my worthy Redeemer with Your gracious eyes
Thank You for taking me out from hell full of deceit and lies
As You did sanctify me to become one of Your saints without any disguise
Despite my filthiness, slain by worldly vice.

Lord God, You are my worthy Redeemer with Your perfect wisdom
Thank You for having pity on me from my humanistic boredom
As You did rescue me to enjoy Your blessed freedom
Despite my inability to serve You in Your kingdom.

Lord God, You are my worthy Redeemer with Your great compassion
Thank You for conquering me with Your regeneration from pride’s oppression
As You did invite me to experience Your wondrous conversion
Despite my need only You can suffice with Your peace-packed provision.

Lord God, You are my worthy Redeemer with Your directing hand
Thank You for justifying me with Your holiness-demand
As You did impute to me Your righteousness of truth’s stand
Despite my difficulty to comply to Your command.

Lord God, You are my worthy Redeemer with Your immutable Word
Thank You for immersing me into Your truth’s record
As You did call me to follow You along servanthood-ford
Despite my reluctance because I had been doubt-devoured.

Lord God, You are my worthy Redeemer with Your quickening might
Thank You for pulling me from haughtiness-height
As You did drive me to face Your Lamb’s meekness-light
Despite my anxiety caused by lack of divine insight.

Visions

I would sing the song of greatness
but  I did not write the words
I would learn to play the melody
but the notes have not been heard
I would teach the world the harmony
if I could the find the perfect note
and warm the hearts of all who sang
with the joy of a musical coat

If I could make a great big smile
for everyone to see
I'd give a piece to every heart
because that's where I should be
I'd rid the world of sadness and pain
for the children most of all
turn off the sounds of guns and wars
turn on a mothers caring call

I'd make each life more precious
create respect as the days of old
I'd remind them of the many stories
that our forefathers once told
The stories of how they all began
way back in the beginning of time
when all things had a greater value
and peace lived in there mind

But oh those days will never be
and yes this be a dream
of hope and wishes long since known
I'm the only one it seems
to see a world of perfect bliss
where we all must have decisions
a place where everyone can agree
somewhere that is my visions

Premium Member Ballad of Blunder

Man rules the earth, but watch his ways,
For they are quite insane.
The greed that’s rooted in his core
Drives him always to gain.
He just can’t accept give-and-take
For he has one-track brain.

He blunder forth and not realise
He's speeding to his own demise.

He thinks he’ll keep one step ahead,
As disease spreads worldwide.
He's confident he’ll always win,
And life is one free ride.
He's in a race and very soon,
He'll hit the Great Divide.

He blunder forth and not realise
He's speeding to his own demise.

Before too late, perhaps he should
Look closely at his game,
To see where his ways taking him
And accept he's to blame
But still his greed grows more and more
And yet he feel no shame.

He blunder forth and not realise
He's speeding to his own demise.

Premium Member Miss Gloom and Doom

This happens daily.
We are all in the lunchroom 
Laughing and having a great time
Co-workers who truly like being together

When Miss Doom and Gloom Enters.
She is full of worst scenario stories, and she
Begins to tell them, not stopping for breath.
All conversation comes to a halt as she commandeers us.

We tried moving our lunches to other places in the building
But alas, she always finds us, perpetually talking, 
Never listening, and she has high drama daily.
We have dared to interrupt
But it works in no way

For she continues her stories, as if no one else has spoken.
It is trying, to say the least.
I sit alone in my room, eating now,
Hearing her incessant rambling through the wall
For she is loud too.
