God,
In His infinite wisdom said:*
“Let there be light”
Then
He went on to create this spectacular world
For us to delight!
Man,
In his infinite "stupidity"** retorted:
“ Let there be darkness”
Then
He was set to destroy this marvelous world
With his mind's dim-witted starkness!
Now,
Man has the horrible consequence of his
Abominable crime to face
Which is no other than the obliteration*** of
Self-centered human race!

*Genesis, 1:3
**“Albert Einstein said: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.”
*** On Monday, March 31st 2014, UN’s most sobering report
to date that was the result of a joint effort of 300 scientists
was published. It grew to 2,600 pages and 32 volumes.
The conclusions of the report are disheartening:
“We are in an era where climate change isn’t some kind of future hypothetical,”
said Chris Field, one of the two principal authors of the report, and Rajendra
Pachauri, chair of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) added:
“Nobody on this planet will be untouched by climate change.”
This means no man or animal on the planet, as well as the earth itself, will be
unaffected!
I dreamt I was running through a beautiful field of flowers, with laughing children all around me. Effortlessly gliding along, smoothly as the breeze. I felt as though I had become the breeze and I was caressing the wild flowers as I moved amongst them. I looked to the faces of the children and saw that they were not children, but fairies and as I gazed downward I saw that my feet were no longer touching the earth. We were gliding along together, the fairies and I, floating gently higher and I realized that the fairies were really angels. I saw that the angels were leaving behind a trail of golden dust. When I looked to my feet they had disappeared and i was being carried along by the angels and I could see too that my legs were also dissolving into the golden dust trailing behind. And even though I felt myself dissolving I was not concerned. For when I looked again closely I knew with certainty that we were all traveling together, dissolving together, and would remain together forever. I knew that I was part of them and they were part of me and that we were part of all the existence that I had ever known. That it was all of us, life, and as it was finishing it was all dissolving into a lovely golden dust that was becoming brighter and brighter until I could barely distinguish our outlines. And I realized that there were no outlines. There had never been outlines. I had only imagined that there was a separation, a boundary I had created in my mind to give myself a particular identity. But we had no identity, we had no separation, we were all there was, we are all there is, and we are infinite. We are all things: matter, energy, space, time. We are the creator and the created. And as the light grew ever brighter and all things dissolved into the brightness I felt myself becoming the light and I knew that I was home. And as I joined the light forever I sensed my last thought drifting from me, and I blessed it as I left it all behind, released it with my human souls’ final parting prayer: ”Let there be light"
Oh, in my mind I didn’t see the light…And God said, “Let there be light and there was light;
And it was right, for He is right shine on bright the light;
Oh, in my eyes were covered blinded by the darkness..
And I didn’t see the light… and God said, “Let there be light and there was light;
Shine bright heaven’s light;
Shine Oh, Shine creator mine;
Heaven adorns, heaven explodes with your love, shine one;
Oh, in my mother’s womb was darkness I was encased in my own sins;
Even though I haven’t been born yet….
Oh, in my mind I didn’t see the light…And God said, “Let there be light and there was light;
And it was right, for He is right shine on bright the light;
Oh, in my eyes were covered blinded by the darkness..
And I didn’t see the light… and God said, “Let there be light and there was light;
Shine bright heaven’s light;
Shine Oh, Shine creator mine;
Heaven adorns, heaven explodes with your love, shine one;
“And God said, ‘let there be light, and there was light.”
“And God said, ‘let there be light, and there was light.”
“And God said, ‘let there be light, and there was light.”
Hallelujah glory God said, yes He’s said let the light so shine;
God said let the glory of His present immerse in the skies and heavens;
Do shine, to shine, Lord you, shine in eternal brightness;
Glory bright ever right Father you evoked the darkness;
“And God said, ‘let there be light, and there was light.”
“And God said, ‘let there be light, and there was light.”
“And God said, ‘let there be light, and there was light.”
Hallelujah glory God said, yes He’s said let the light so shine;
“And God said, ‘let there be light, and there was light.”

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr.©2019
-Genesis 1:3
As the song goes, she sings because she's happy and because she's free.
I'm also happy and free, but I sure do wish that I could also sing.
Anyway, everything and everyone must be true to their purpose.
The birds and the bees have theirs, and I have mine. It's not singing.
And even if I could, it would be during the time I love best, but
that would not sit well with the rest of the family, because
my heart favors early mornings when they are still asleep.
Oh, if I could sing, I would join in with the Nightingale,
and the two of us would sing of Dawn's Glory. Happy
mornings would be soothing and all aglow, because
I would be singing second fiddle with The Nightingale.
Furthermore, we would also give ultimate Glory to God.
Some are fans of their night songs.
Others are impressed with their tunes of later mornings.
I prefer the Dawn sounds when the light begins to break the darkness.
It is 'a breaking' point that reminds me of God saying, "Let there be light".
That's when the dark nights cease their hold in order that the light might
grow at sunrising, signaling nightingale's time to sing the songs of the Dawn.
Oh, the gloriousness of Dawn; the bliss; the blessing.
Oh, the glory that is Dawn's is awakening;
It can be breath-taking.
It is resurrecting;
It is renewing;
It is eye-opening;
and it is restoring.

God's first words, "Let there be light!"
and all darkness took to flight.
Christ's forgiveness makes things right
as His Spirit sharpens our sight.
Greater Father can not be
Righteous Savior sets men free
The Comforter pilots me
I sing Holy, Holy, Holy.
One cannot dwell in heresy
One died for sin, got victory
One seals us from the enemy
I laud the Blessed One in three.
Ten commands, Father’s decree
Jesus paid the ransom fee
Holy Spirit makes my plea
I worship God Almighty.

The mystery of the Trinity is not to be comprehended
but simply trusted and accepted and believed
June 13, 2022
In my world nevertheless, these reasons compels me to be alone
For no one can even begin to comprehend to things of unknown
Whether a curse or a deliverance to befall upon me
I have not a choice, neither here nor there to ever be
And having lived an unpredictable life faithfully such as mine
I would redeem myself in The Ancients, as long I be given time
Therefore… with the future to unfold, I have resolved myself to serve
If not to ensave, death as penalty is an afterall I’m to deserve
Let us be on with our way, for the night is to be awaken soon
With luck, let there be light to guide us from beneath the moon”
{As I sheath my metal, I stood my ground and awaited for her
Awaiting… for perhaps a miracle which may yet draws near
This single hope stayed with me as I followed Alkaiya along
Finally knowing as well, this is indeed the world I belong
After what seem forever, we decidedly stop for a moment’s rest
An unfounded moment, for myself I’m unable to simply outlast
There were stones, darken rocks masking the wilderness around
The unsettling settles… as my time as always is to bound
Sitting in my bed once more, I am without quiet relief awoken
For return is but my recounted nightmare of what time beckons
Before my next entry to come, will perhaps be one even harder
As it is the last moment to recall, we have stumbled upon the Heaori Chamber}
In my world I am but a no one
A no one to everyone else who doesn’t believe
Given is another world I can run
Yet… its essentially hard to remain well receive
Little did I thought I have escaped it all
Little am I to know, my service to the Word retains
With many months ago since to ignore
A certainty is certainly less worthy for complains
Back into The Ancients I return once again
Back into hidden love, back into unfavourable dreams
How else if nothing else is to remain?
If not in my world but to have the other world bring
Time and again, the time of the unknown revisits
Always with a meaning deeper than before to believe
Time after time with my mind to battle and weep
Am I aged with enough faith to take another leap?
A chamber where dreams meet fate
Do I possess the strength to enter for dreams to come true?
Will I ever be regrettably too late?
To prevent the death of Alkaiya to be undoubtedly real

"Let There Be Light"
The comet said; light there was, forever after.
Today began in Mid-July,
When Summer froze itself around us,
Following the wondrous fireworks display
When the New Sun filled the skies.
Darkness fled away,
Taking all the stars along;
The moon she hid behind the amber flood
All night things quit their song
Some declared a New Age had begun,
Some, the end of all we know;
Some blamed God's Wrath for another sun
While others only dreamt of snow -
But all alike were illuminated
In the light of our eternal day.
The only darkness lies behind our eyes,
We have no secrets now;
All seas are warm Today,
Their shorelines ever on the rise;
With salt tears some appeal to old Mother Ocean
To take us back and start anew -
We are too young yet -
Independence Day will never end,
Thanks to the blazing pinwheel in the skies.
In the beginning there was a light
in her eyes so magnetic
it could pull darkness
from the soul
A brilliance so electric & bold that
sparks flew whenever
her presence was drawn
Being with her was like the dawn
of a new day
fresh & uplifting
in every way
The shining sun rested above
her head in such a way
like a halo & thoughts
to be read
All whom she encountered were
left sifting through
mental pictures of her
running interference in
their minds
Her sublime appearance was
second to none & made
one bare thoughts that left
them feeling naked & had
I reach so that you feel her
description until the
whole of her has been
grasped
She held the globe in her hands
like a pliable ball
being readied for a
game
The father of all broke the mold
when making her anew
as there was none like her
before or since to be named
Let there be light is a phrase
that seemed right & appropriate
when she came
into view
The light in those eyes was
like a candle
in a dark room
where all you seen
was the flame
We've all been witness to
the brilliance of her creation
& the light she exudes
One look into her eyes without
shades & a soul
is never the same
This is my opinion of her
& what I deem to
to be true
Ages ago, in the beginning
God said "Let there be light."
And Satan made his attempt
at darkening man's insight;
having fallen himself by denying
God's power at heaven's height.
Adam and Eve fell for his lies
and disobeyed God's command
to leave that one tree alone
just one tree in all of Eden-land.
The tree of the knowledge
of good and evil must have been grand.
The Light of the World
met his Father's challenge
on the cross, And He changes
lives still today, but I cringe
at the thought of God-asking me,
"did your light, the darkness impinge?"
John, Revelation's time traveler of old,
foretells visions of not needing the moon or sun.
New Jerusalem need never fear a black-out
of understanding, for there dwells the Holy One
the Living light. God Himself will be all the light
mankind will need when time has become undone.

Living Light Unseeking Seeker
when i pass
i will linger on in a few memories
a few nanoseconds in man's history
place no stone above me
with some name easily forgotten
never bury me in the earth
in some hollowed-out cavity
waiting for some delusional day
when cemeteries reach some prophecy
looking like a Wack-A-Mole celebration
cremate me and scatter the ashes
in some pleasant meadow
where i may luxuriate in bathing
in the Bose-Einstein condensation
as the sun rises with the solar wind
perchance an ash lights upon a blossom
a bee gathers pollen
i cling to its toil and escape in flight
hither and dither on the hives path
let me spend a full moon
in silvery shadows that dance
amidst the mockingbirds' song of the night
or rejoice in a tempest roaring
as the trees dance in God's metronome
His power dancing across the sky
in a glorious burst of light
please a meadow of promised halcyon days
where the mortal is scattered in gratitude
of what was so miraculous
to touch, to see, to taste, to smell
blessed with the senses
yet the grandest of them all
for i was given an entitlement
graced with the gift to love
in that first breath was my eternity
when the sun runs dry and expands
all have perished at Jupiter's gates
let my mortal existence return
from which it sprang
the fruition of that breath is home
where space and time harbor no path
where it was commanded
let there be light
