Frank

Frank is my favourite word ~ the name of my darling, he went far too soon
Really missing his charm and his wit, the kindest man, living life to the full
Always there to help family and friends his generosity knew no bounds
Negative thoughts never entered his head ~ smiling he lived his life instead
Kisses and cuddles I truly miss and I dream of the day I will taste his sweet kiss

Premium Member That Number

That Number

It's the number that
        comes after three,
It's the number that
       comes before five,
It's the number that
        you cannot see,
It's the number that
        you can't say live,
Unlucky number
        in the Far East,
Like number 13
        out in the West,
It is the New Jerusalem
        Foundation,
It is the absolute of
        Creation,
It is the sense of
        Totality,
The opposite of
        Humanity,
Taste like
        cocoa,
Smells like
        chocolate,
Does not make
        you loco,
But just the
        opposite,
So just like as 
        we said before,
We cannot say
        the number *_____

Premium Member Cheerful

Cheerfully “showing signs of glory” as her name means clearly
Love of God brightens her compassion-radiance along Christ’s light
Empowered by the Saviour Whom she serves with earnestness
Offering her best to reach-out with the Lord’s grace to others
Fervently faithful in her stewardship fulfillment
Ever-abiding in the Almighty’s will, grateful for her granted life eternal…

Dearly beloved sister-friend, she’s blessed while godliness exemplifying
Exalting the Creator through her enthusiastic serving and edifying
Approved according to Scriptures’ affirmation amidst her afflictions…
Surely a woman* of virtue, strengthened and sanctified by the Holy Spirit
Imparting truths by her teacher-role, indeed divinely influential...
She shines for the glory of her Master Who makes her completely sufficient.

*Proverbs 31:30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.

Dear Cley,
God be praised and thanked for your life devoted to the Lord … by His grace, through His might, and for His honour.  A blessed birthday to you.

Premium Member Jonah's Nineveh

Jonah believed that justice required punishment, not mercy                                                                                    
Obedience is what God desires from us, not our opinions
Never weep or whine over spilled milk; just wipe it up
And remember that every secret will be brought into the light
Heaven is a place for forgiven people, not perfect people
'
So let us all rejoice in God's mercy, not our goodness.

Never give up on people who have gone astray
I and you are candidates for God's mercy
No one who still breathes is too far gone
Everyone is capable of making a change
Valuable lessons from Scripture are priceless
Even animals are recipients of God's mercy
Happily and Fortunately, God is rich in mercy

God's Gracious Butterfly

Go, go my dear butterfly
On to the garden of flowers you go
Don’t ever funk to flutter in wind
'll be watching your funny leaps.

So gracious from flower to flower
Gliding and swimming through the air
Rather than flapping your little wings
As an artist you turn and twist.

Coming and going with ease and will
In my garden you dance at thrill
On the flowers you sit as still
Until get full with honey that fill.

Surfeit zest you bring my mind
Buried in your flight I forgot mine
Unto the sky and heaven I soar
To the gracious God, my soul‘ll fly.

Teach me dear this art of flying
Else I lay buried under soil
Raise me with your tiny drifts
From hell to heaven I flit at will.

Like loving God’s Gracious Butterfly
Yonder sky, my dear soul, I will fly! 

(Meaning of my name: God's Gracious Butterfly)

Premium Member Joy of the Lord

Joy of the Lord, indeed jubilant
Offered for glad life’s optimization
Yours and mine fully; surely… yes!

Ordered to rejoice evermore* openly
Fervently we do worshipfully as blessings flow…

Triumphantly blissful midst trials
Hoisted are we, blessed by faith's heavenly hope 
Exhorted along edification's encouragement…

Led with God’s love-filled light
Our hearts trust Almighty's omniscience
Rejuvenated toward reaching-out readiness
Delighting in the Saviour's joy daily.

*1Thessalonians 5:16 Rejoice evermore.  Nehemiah 8:10 … The joy of the LORD is your strength.

-three Plus One-

Three plus one shall arrive one day, 
The Holy Trinity and the Almighty shall prevail- 
When I speak knowing not what to say,
I shall note that my fate is sealed but one way. 
The rising of the Son who strips my veil, 
It is the wisest and most loving tale. 

Most important is this number, you see; 
For time shall stand still when three adds one- 
When all the pain of life bestows its debris, 
I shall be the woman God called me to be. 
I shall rise in faith after the rapture is done, 
And in heaven will be welcomed by the Son. 

North, South, East and West, 
In all directions love shall shine- 
Autumn arrives and summer shall rest, 
And all who share faith shall be blessed. 
For there is no comparing to the divine- 
When all of mankind is God’s perfect design. 

The Father, Son, Holy Spirit and Almighty- 
Together spreading righteous harmony.

Premium Member Too Square For Two

you ... are the paramour of right angles
the square of a square - complete, quite aware
how two must adore you
for all it sees is itself, reflected
an angular fist - quite the narcissist
and the first number, sublime, that is NOT a prime
you move with order ... perfection
enclosed, at the helm of a harmonious realm
antithesis of lucky clover, and balance of the cornered circuit
you are numbered of the elements - the seasons cycle your breath
and how would a deck of cards go out for a night on the town
without your fancy suits to wear ... debonair?
how lost the world would be without you
to show us direction - to section the areas of space ...
to sing to us in the voice of violins
to carry us safely to our joys, spinning beneath our seats
to give motion, food and escape to the creatures
features of the gospels and horsemen, dark
hark - even the chambers of the heart ...
thrum for your sake and coordination
you are safety and symmetry, precision and enclosure
e'en the wind knows your order and actuality, factually, see ...
is it any wonder, number ... that you are my favorite?
(when with your little sister, of course).

Premium Member Steadfastness

 
Snow should be my name in reality, but
this girl was named an old lady name-
everyone says, I have an old soul
and it is true for I am quite vintage;
dedicated to family and faithful to friends.
from a child I wept, oh, it is uncool, a mouthful,
and did I mention, I am from a frozen land-
such a regal, elegant name, so graceful, but
time taught me to love my name . . . 
now, I never sway, or relent, I endure
everyday I write my grief and pain in poems
sending them on the wings of birds , I am
steadfast with strength and serenity

Premium Member The Spiritual Number

Segmented straight lines configure
pointed glyph of transformed cross.
In numeral sequence from the top
it’s the second smallest even integer.

After three dark days of primal genesis
when the arch of cosmos needed light,
God created sun, moon and all the stars
on this day, the symbol of universal truth.

This spiritual digit repeated three times,
turns into an angel number seraphic.
Responding to our thoughts and prayers,
it instills courage by numerological power.

At the blind end of life’s unlit path
if the milestone of angel number appears,
in God’s grace you’ll get divine foresight,
beyond dark you’ll see the light of future.
