Premium Member Holy Day-

Holy day
Always
I shall say
I will pray
A day in the life 
Written in strife
I am relinquished to say 
I worship today for everyday 

Holy day

Alone yet that I am not alone
Oh! I am so chosen

I pray I acknowledge Him always

So am I chosen I am worshiping 
Him solely for pure thoughts as 
I pray art often dismay I display 
I am this day I worship worshiping 
Him our worship  I worship Him on this holy day

Ode To Doctor David Damer

Ode to Dr. David Damer, the Healer True,

Whose hands extend compassion, skilled and kind,
A chiropractor, faithful, steadfast, and aligned,
With deep religious beliefs, guiding his way,
Bringing solace to those who kneel and pray.

In each adjustment, grace and care are found,
His touch, a balm, with purpose, healing bound,
With knowledge honed through years of dedication,
He tends to bodies with a divine inspiration.

Oh, Dr. Damer, your faith shines so bright,
A beacon of hope, in the darkest of night,
You see not just bones, but spirits within,
Nurturing wellness, a sacred mission you begin.

Through the realms of science and spirituality,
You blend the two with grace and integrity,
Your hands, instruments of God's tender touch,
Restoring balance, bodies yearning for much.

With gentle adjustments, you ease the pain,
Aligning vertebrae, restoring life's refrain,
Your patients, grateful, offer prayers of praise,
For the miracles you work, in your healing ways.

Your faith weaves a tapestry of healing art,
Inspiring trust and igniting a grateful heart,
For in your hands, the power of belief resides,
A testament to the wonders that faith provides.

May your journey be blessed, dear healer divine,
As you tend to bodies, yours a sacred shrine,
Dr. David Damer, a champion of health profound,
Thank you for the good you spread all around.

The other side

I’m watching the light go dim
It’s sink or swim
I am sinking fast
And absolutely gassed

Struggling to keep my head above water
Feel like I’ve been put out to slaughter 
Everyday is a challenge 
To have a positivity scavenge

I do my best to support
Although I can be short
As I also am dying inside 
From having happiness denied

This world is coming crash down
I am sinking until I drown
Watching my soul mate suffer
At the hands of another

Life has gone as I knew it
Now full of sacrifice and conflict
To give her what I can
Before it turns to a plan

I’m lost on what else I’m able to do
Feel as useful as a kangaroo 
Jumping around to find what’s best
In order for her to be assessed 

Suffering is truly real
It can be a terrible ordeal
Once disease has set in
She go so damn thin

It’s scary to see what this person has been through 
It gives you a different world view
Kindness and respect bleeds from every pore
Where is was very limited before

My whole life revolves around this person
For she made me a better version
I wish I could repay by healing her body
Or have the power to embody 

So much anger and frustration has built
If I could do more I would not have guilt
Cancer is a better alternative 
Treatment is fast and compassionate

I see the determination in her eyes 
To fight whatever may arise
The lights sometimes flicker
And I know she is sicker

There currently no control
Only opportunity to console
As the end is near
I live in turmoil and fear

One morning the lights maybe off
Gone without a cough
Medical intervention needs to be immediate 
Find the missing ingredient 

Life will be grim without my soulmate 
Doctors are in control of my fate
The apologise for the delay
But nothing will change tomorrow or today

NHS you are a massive disappointment 
I hold so much resentment 
You are killing off two
Through your lack or care and short sighted view 

I shouldn’t have to plan for an ending
Because you lack of care is unrelenting 
Torture for the people who suffer through
Pray and hope for change but turn blue

Premium Member Keep On Believing


I met you many years ago – in a church
where we were learning to be more than kids,
more than just our parent’s mistakes,
more than little girls – but women who would
one day, pray…

for husbands who would love us deeply,
giving men who believe in Him,
honest souls who are gentle yet masculine,
vibrant men who provide and protect,
blessed men, who we could believe in.

I met you all those days gone now, in a church
where we became, somehow – friends
even when our hearts were in doubt,
when we felt lost and alone, without a hope,
we shared, in a way…

the need to let go of what has gone
to learn to listen to the love, the love of God
who feeds the weary soul, lets the beloved know
there is hope in those who hear – His words
invaluable and overflowing with love.

I met you and I discovered that you, too
could see the shadows, in the skies so blue
you could see the poetry in the truth, the dream
something beautiful in each of Jesus’ miracles,
a breathless hue of friendship’s music.

but what I really needed from you I never found
I needed a friend that would always be around
A friend to my heart, a friend to my soul
Someone whose faith would one day make them whole
A friend, I soon found, that you would not be
Because, a friend, my dear – would believe in me!

Premium Member Old Age

________________________________________________

Tomorrow is a birthday of the gravest consequence...
Proclivity denied in me the ancient, awful truth
but I now see quite clearly from the Crone's side of the fence,
the aperture slam shut upon the saga of my youth

I feel the marrow turn to dust inside each drying bone,
all nuance of fertility drains from my barren womb
I pray that in my final hours, I won't be left alone
to hear the bells a-tolling, as now, I'm aware for whom!

I'm bound to be quite feeble, if I make it past the day
Please, look in on me often to attest that I am fine
It's with temerity, though, that I hold on, anyway,
with luck, perhaps I'll see the ripe old age of twenty-nine...

Premium Member Harmony - Peace, Not War

We dream of peace on Earth- what is this peace
   we yearn and pray for in our life?  We think
of days when wars no longer threaten- cease
   world conflicts so to spread that freedom’s link-
to claim God-given rights for all on Earth;
   to live unburdened, free as we should be-
each person, with an equal chance from birth,
   to live in treasured peace and harmony.

Though many try to live in freedom's light
   with peace and love the center of their goals,
world leaders bear the cross to keep their sight
   on freedom- not disastrous wars and tolls.

We wonder will this miracle ensue-
   and pray that peace on Earth someday is true.

Premium Member Hidden In Plain Sight

We know you're out there, oh beauteous moon,
although for the moment, in a cocoon,
rising again at night, to make us swoon.
Hide not your lustre dear - your touch that doth endear,
erases every fear - when you choose to appear.
Sol knows not its glow till it looks at thee,
yet feeling distant, displays dark envy,
dimming your glow by day, we wish to see.
Diminishes delight - when you hide in plain sight;
yearning deepens our plight - we have no strength to fight.
Looking skyward, we ask for but one boon,
that by day too, we feel your presence near,
so we pray to God, on a bended knee,
to wave His magic wand, making things right.

Premium Member Grains In Need

Our digestive system is starting to hurt
We thoroughly deemed this void
As if we're crashing from a Pyramid in, revert
An urgent necessity that must be spoiled
The earth is shifting to sand in an islet desert
Land beheld through the lens of greed boiled.

Unless we dig ourselves out of dismal dirt
We are going to hurt the crashing avoid
Giving you a speck of buoyancy exerts
You should sow it since it's a seed poised

I request a grain and am granted a sight
I require a piece and am granted the right
When I ask for a roll, I get paper insight

When I seek exegesis, I am said of my gut delight
I will be attentive to the light
When I pray to the realm, the gates reveal the site.

Walking Dead

Christmas and birthdays have now past.
The hustle and bustle is now done
The pain in my heart still does outlast,
Even though another year has begun.

Another year for me to grieve,
Another year for me to get through.
No longer the mom that is so naïve,
Yet my dreams I still pursue.

There are times I just feel
That I am going through the motions.
Nothing I do seems real,
Yet tears shed can fill all the oceans.

One day down and now there is tomorrow
For it is a day to really dread
As I am still so full of sorrow
And now I am the walking dead.

Yet, as dead as I am
I can still move on
Knowing I am no mild lamb,
Yet my children are still gone.

Maybe tomorrow something will change
Maybe, just maybe, I can smile more
And not seem ever so strange
Nor, hopefully, others I no longer bore.

I know I am a contradiction
Wanting more and grasping straws
Yet always speaking with conviction
Even though I am still so very raw.

Tomorrow is an entirely new day
Yesterday is now long gone
I shall continue to daily pray
While trying not to be withdrawn.

Yet, I am who I am
This agony I will try to shed
As tomorrow comes like a ram
I pray I am no longer the walking dead.

Prayer For Protection

Oh Lord!
Come to my presence.
I cry with my wounded voice.
Heal me out,hear me out.
Darkness and confusion defeats
My soul in your absence.

Here I am seeking for your presence.
Cover me with the blood of your son Jesus,
He who you sent to die for our sin.
I cry out to you my Lord,
Bring joy,happiness and greatness in my heart,
For you are the one who rescued Israel from Egypt.

Shield me with your holy and merciful hands.
Seeking you is my heart which does not knows the truth
And stepping slowly are my foot 
Which doubt to take the next step.
You are the Almighty God who created Heave and Earth.
So help me on this journey of life.

You knew me before I was born
To be the child of my mother and father.
Make me live on your own will and follow your commandments.
Purify all the ways where my foot are about to step on.

Peace be with he who praise and pray to you.
Bring joy in the deserted hearts 
All in the mighty name of Jesus.
AMEN
