SIGN OF THE TIMES

Stones will be thrown down. The temple succumbs like Lazarus.
  Inconceivable evil hurled inside and outside satan’s circle.
Good perceived as bad and the reverse a similar fact.
  Noah’s days before our rainy eyes, hankies blowing it.
Other christ, the false one, the devil incarnate arrives.
  Feast of beasts will turn the world upside-down in defeat.
Torrential weather, hate and great distress to impress.
  Heaven looks on in horror but not surprised.
Evening becomes the norm without moon or stars.
  The persecutions worse and worser, God’s children cry, wanting
It to end sooner than later, having suffered and died, blood
  Mixes like a cultural conglomerate - we knew the rat race
Eventide, on its plenipotentiary screeching wheel, couldn’t
   Survive but for Jesus Christ — His victory secured at the cross.

The temple in line one is Jesus. In the final line His victory.

Sometimes, It Just Takes Some Time

Sometimes, it just takes some time

Sometimes, 
we are born, with big dreams
Sometimes, 
we are born having none
Sometimes, 
we have to live, with our troubles
Sometimes, 
we do things, that can’t be undone

Sometimes, 
our hearts, may be broken
Sometimes, 
we find true peace and love
Sometimes, 
words are better left unspoken
Sometimes, 
you leave when you’ve had enough

Chorus
Sometimes, 
it just takes, some time
for all of your dreams to come true
Sometimes, 
it just takes, some time
to find the perfect one, meant for you
Sometimes, 
it just takes, some time
being apart ‘til the storm subsides
Sometimes, 
it just takes, some time
a little patience, while the future unwinds

Sometimes, 
the cards, we’ve been dealt with
don’t add up, 
and are just not enough
Sometimes, 
we’re anxious, and worry too much
Sometimes,
we’re blessed, with a tender touch


Sometimes, 
the money comes too easy
Sometimes, 
we may not have enough to eat
Sometimes, 
life throws us a curve ball
Sometimes, 
this life is bittersweet

Chorus
Sometimes, 
it just takes, some time
for all of your dreams to come true
Sometimes, 
it just takes, some time
to find the perfect one, meant for you
Sometimes, 
it just takes, some time
being apart ‘til the storm subsides
Sometimes, 
it just takes, some time
a little patience, while the future unwinds

Finale
Sometimes, it just takes, some time
a little patience, while the future unwinds
Sometimes, it just takes, some time
a little patience, while the future unwinds

The King has one more move

there's a picture in the Louvre 
entitled "Checkmate" 
It's depicts a man and the devil having a chess date 
but looking at the picture one can clearly see 
the man's king has one more move.
there's no apparent defeat 

yet the King had one more move 
God was not done 
and don't believe the battle is over 
nor that the enemy has won 

Life is like a chess game that requires 
critical thinking 
strategic planning, decision making 
and constant tweaking 

yet the King had one more move 
God was not done 
and don't believe the battle is over 
nor that the enemy has won 

chess is not just a game but a metaphor for life 
every move and every decision we make 
should line up with Christ 
its purpose and strategy is always 
to protect the king 
but in life Father God from us 
doesn't need a thing 

the message is for us to not 
misplace our priorities 
but to move in a way that acknowledges 
God's authority 

Yet the King had one more move 
God was not done
just never believe the battle is over 
nor that the enemy has won 

so stop holding your head 
acting all scared 
the game is not done 
your life has just begun 

yes the King had one more move 
God was not done 
and never believe the battle is over 
nor that the enemy has won

God wants us to think to plan and to prepare 
To operate with His authority 
and a spirit of no fear 

yes the king has one more move 
God is not done 
and never believe the battle is over 
nor that the enemy has won

yes the king has one more move
Father God is never done 
and never believe the battle is over 
nor that the devil has won

In My Professional Opinion

I stare at all the stars in the sky 
Like everlasting snowflakes 
No two are alike  
I wonder what god was thinking  
 Maybe they are just his 
Guidance and comfort 
Seeping through 
I look all the trees 
Wonder how many can there be 
Think about insects 
Their number and variety is bigger 
Then my ability to pronounce 
This must be gods 
Overactive imagination
Seeping through 
I watch my fellow humans
And all they are capable of 
Masters of both hate and love 
The material and physical 
And how they love to create 
I have come to the conclusion 
That this is all an allusion 
To god having O.C.D. 
Probably has multiple personalities 
And the devil 
Is just his paranoid schizophrenia 
Seeping through

Tortured Poet Extolling Rhetoric

I am not a Poet

I know this fact true and full well 

In the orthodox conventional literal way

As I am not able to use set standard form

So what I write

Therefore does not conform 

So I agree wholeheartedly not disagree 

Technically I am not a Poet

All I am is simply someone who

Likes to write and comment about things

That don't necessarily fit any set remit 

But yet I still want to have a go

So I end up having to encroach

And impose and join in other ways

And blur the lines and rules of engagement

Because although I may not be a poet

1 thing I can admit is this

I suffer through my words

Like any tortured Poet would

As to me writing is more about

Exposure of one's true self soul and heart

Than a form of compliance to an art 

If that stifles my openness and integrity 

And does not keep my demons at bay

Rather lets them lie in wait

And my silence further leads onto

Yet more inevitable tortured mistakes


Snippet

11/21/16

Just a snippet
Made out in the land of crickets

You either did or didn't
Put forth the effort, time and commitment
Above and below the ridges
Hits and misses
Pushing it to the limits
Got to take care of business
From the start past the finish
Again and again with a quickness
And swiftness
Focused on nearby surroundings and in the distance

People looking at you funny if you are or aren't religious
The same could be said for being superstitious

Gas, solids and liquids
The terrain and weather calm,scorching or frigid
Mild to extreme conditions

Learn from your mistakes and understand the difference
While still in existence

Benefits in using eucalyptus
And many things that are citrus

She liked the smell of hibiscus
And having koi fishes

Some only talk pigeons 
And chicken

Grand openings started with the cutting of a ribbon


Golf courses with divots

Sentimental and valuable dishes
Historical bridges
 
Kid friendly music or explicit

Messages encrypted
Future events predicted

Shallow to deep ditches

We know there has been cannibalism
Before and after many schisms

Have other life forms ever paid us a visit?

No proof of the truth, therefore does it make it fiction?

Respect the environment and ecosystem

To you and your kindred
Best of wishes

To Someone Who Is Wrong

Walking in the rain with black shirt of dusts,
Sitting in a small chair with no strings attached.
Eating a bowl of porridge with eggs on my side,
Voraciously eating like a dead man on his wild side.



I swirled my eyes in the places of bright lights.
I saw you clearly smiling in my naked white sight.
You’re wearing white shirt in a stingy black glasses of hell.
Why were you so good and walked things so well?

 

When I saw you, good days were coming back.
Our love was inadequate and there was so something lack.
I stumbled on my seat and tried to hide under my chair.
You saw me in seconds and gave me a dark stare.

 

You were with someone but I was not so shocked.
Love games are your line like you’re having big stock.
You said you don’t know me because we were never ever together.
I’m grateful enough for knowing someone who is such polluted air.

Premium Member Everlasting Love Letter

From God’s heart, enclosed with purity 
His compassion, charity divine 
ceaselessly prevailing midst abounding iniquities
reached down to my earthly residence
through His precious love letter:
the Scriptures, forever declaring His kindness’ care…
I thank Him, it was delivered to me at last!

Sealed with the Saviour’s unfailing mercy
His love letter keeps sailing through the sea of life
revealing blood-paid sacrifice for humanity’s ransom
as well as redemption security, expressing His love triumphant
bringing forgiveness and peace...
I praise Him, it gripped my soul where it should reign and last!

Having read Christ's love letter upon faith's comprehension
I'm assured of His gift of everlasting life*
thus, my grateful spirit yields to Him
vowing to share its blessings' bounty
exuding with sweet bliss, serene graciousness
while prayerfully publishing His message of kindness and hope…
since it can never become the last!

*John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Premium Member Love Sweet Love Is Available To Everyone

Love sweet love again has me trapped
Can't break free from it's grasp
To be perfectly honest, not trying all that hard
Really I'm having a huge blast

Oh so nice to love someone so deeply
And know they love you right back
Makes life an absolute joy when it happens
You're motoring along then whack

You're smitten, you're basically done for
There's no way out I'm afraid
It's really quite futile to attempt to escape 
Why would you want to evade

Love sweet love is available to everyone
For all who wish to partake
Better to just let all those good times roll
It's easier for everyone's sake

Premium Member I Have a Bet

I have a bet
with an old fig tree
in my backyard;
a bet as to whether
he will be out 
of the ground
before I am in it; 

not that we wish the other
a speedier demise, for there
is a strong fondness and
bound we share -- having fed
one another for many years—
I, on his figs and lustrous shade;
and he, on my careful pruning
and sensitive irrigation...both
of us, around harvest, receiving 
song-full praising from the 
many winged interlopers, and 
four legged sojourners of our 
opulent and thoroughly integrated 
community;

as to the motive for our wager
it is more tongue-and-cheek,
or bark-and...whatever --
reflecting the inevitable folly
of both our journeys…

below or above seems to make
little difference in the final 
revelation—sort of like, rich
vs. poor...we are all equal
to the Grim Reaper—Nature’s
totally, Politically Correct
Recycler….
