This summer, as ever, there's much to do.
But only one or two things I want to do.
I told Alan that, like him, I'm never bored.
But today, like a teenager, I'm both tired and bored.
The long expanse of summer stretches forward. Alan plans
the next 2 years in advance, always moving forward. I can't plan
the next 2 hours, sitting on my ****, undecided whether
to clean the house, make a list of prospective donors, or check the 5-day
weather
forecast. Fires out west, hurricanes south, drought here
in the east where the garden phlox withers and the corn's stunted. We
hear
prophecies of armageddon, doom, but humans may go on another
thousand, million or billion years
undaunted. What is that to you. A day alone in your room and a year
are inexplicable. Now and then a vacation, baseball game, night of love.
A divorce, a death, a drouth. To survive and prosper we must love
all of it, insect infestations and world wars, cloud curlicues and square
dances, work
and weekends off. Knowing the unknowable = never knowing how the
world works.
i have built
a ship of eternity
to cross the oceans of mystery
which sails through
the storms of tragedy
even through the wind
and the tide
with god on our side
it a golden age
and we need to open a new page
everyone is welcome on board
a simple life everyone can afford
for the pen is
mightier than the sword
a higher institution
far better than a nation
built on illusion
a house of salvation
and a valley of redemption
whatever the matter
descending between good and evil
will only make us prosper
for in the island of eternity
is the hidden treasure
so listen and listen well
the body will fair you well
but the spirit is forever
I look like everyday
I told the world am the competition
Yes I don’t want to be
better than no one
I just want to be better
than the man in the mirror
Yes that man in the mirror
Looks like everyday
I look like the good day
I look like the bad day
I look like the sun when I fight
I look like the moon when I love
I look like the thunder when I revenge
I look like the air when I heal
I look like the stars when am happy
I look like the water when I prosper
I look like the stones when an angry
I look an animal when I bleed
I look like the blue sky when I go spiritual
I look like the birds when am free
I look like a lion when I sing
I look like the wind when I dance
I look like nature through my spirit
Am familiar with the man in the mirror
I must be better than him so
I look like everyday
I look like everyday
I look like my shadow
When i call for help
I look like darkness with confusion
So I started to bleed with
the man in the mirror
I always see him everyday
I will see him again tomorrow
His face never disappear in the mirror
He always keep reminding me
About the days
He always show me how good or
Bad i am
He always show me when am ugly
He always show me when I shine
He always show me the picture of
Myself Each day
It’s written through the face in the mirror always
This man in the mirror never lie
His visual is real
His message is always clear
He always show the face of my reality
So I try to always see him better yet
I look like everyday
Forgiveness of evil
By Michelle Morris
15/11/2020
The hurt and anger burn in your soul,
Tearing you apart and keeping you in the hole;
No moving forward whilst you're stuck in the past -
Reliving evil deeds men have forced on your life...
The greatest gift you can receive is to free up your energy, focus on your wellbeing;
Forgive those who wronged you, and
Move on with your life -
Time to prosper and enjoy the ride...
The hurt and anger no longer waste your time and space,
You're whole and healed by God's loving grace;
For vengeance is His and not ours to pursue,
As we lift our hearts upwards and enjoy the peaceful view...

A festive feel in red and gold:
Chinatown deals Goat year most grand.
A splash of will as joy unfolds:
A Chinese fill as cheer attends.
~~~~~~~~~
This lunar year arrives with truth:
Our kindred ties forge a fine fest.
Those who are dear gather fond proof:
Our fortunes high in lovely quest.
~~~~~~~~~
Paint the town red takes new meaning:
Feel fond delight that ushers joy.
Poise favours red in warm sightings:
Feel grand insight in wealthy ploys.
~~~~~~~~~
Now we visit our kin folk here:
Auspicious wit merge with fine stay.
Now each to each greet with good cheer:
Prosper and reach this happy day.
~~~~~~~~~
Give red packets with blessings fond:
Touch now can live grandeur this spring.
Lucky trinkets to fill life's pond:
Joy heaps and gives as true health sings.
~~~~~~~~~
Such festive joy can fill the heart:
A touch beyond primes charming feel.
Good luck funds ploy in brilliant start:
A rhyme upon a springtime fill.

May 8 Heart for God Bible Meditations Based on 1Chronicles 22-25
Key Verse – 1Chronicles 22:13 Then shalt thou prosper, if thou takest heed to fulfil the statutes and judgments which the LORD charged Moses with concerning Israel: be strong, and of good courage; dread not, nor be dismayed.
HEART THAT PERSEVERES TO FULFILL THE STATUTES OF THE LORD
Our heart perseveres to fulfill the statutes of the Lord
That smite our haughtiness
Through His ruling graciousness
To teach us genuine humbleness
Toward functional servanthood-meekness.
Our heart perseveres to fulfill the statutes of the Lord
That vanquish our anger
Through His loving touch with compassion’s finger
To shield us from bitterness-dagger
Toward helpful kindness that does divinely linger.
Our heart perseveres to fulfill the statutes of the Lord
That correct our ignorance
Through His upholding wisdom, full of truth’s assurance
To keep us from foolishness-endurance
Toward Biblical conviction’s performance and forbearance.
Our heart perseveres to fulfill the statutes of the Lord
That hinder our backsliding
Through His complete forgiveness that is iniquity-ridding
To embrace us within His mercy’s enfolding
Toward worshipful gratitude-attending.
Our heart perseveres to fulfill the statutes of the Lord
That pacify our discontentment
Through His abounding provisions’ bestowment
To satisfy us with heavenly fulfillment
Toward praise-moved commitment.
Our heart perseveres to fulfill the statutes of the Lord
That reprove our materialism
Through His eternal words outlasting earthly truism
To rebuke us and our vain humanism
Toward earnest service geared by divine optimism.
Our heart perseveres to fulfill the statutes of the Lord
That inspire our servanthood’s zest
Through His inerrant instruction and admonition that’s best
To encourage us for faithful stewardship against any test
Toward fruitful discipleship, making us truly blest.

Among and below the stars
Near and far
From here to way beyond Mars
I send my regards
May your own path be carved
As you take charge
Close and beyond any barge
On either side of the yard
Up and down every boulevard
Whether or not your intent on living small or large
Maybe in the future, we'll see flying cars
Roger dodger you old codger
I hear you loud and clear through the transponder
On land and in water
Close by and over yonder
The temperature getting colder and hotter
Let us continue to prosper
And ponder
With so much to offer
Wherever we wander
Always trying to do it proper
While keeping our honor
Even when the times become somber
Instead of thinking like "why bother?"
Focus, try harder and conquer
Not a second later
Onto something greater
On either side of the equator
So be it if it requires a lot of labor
This is far from minor, this is major
Through civilizations and out in nature
Now the Festive Season is over,
That false bonhomie game,
It’s on to the NewYear and
More of just the same.
The Pandemic continues,
Life restricted as it before
(How would this population
Have reacted to five years war)
For the Why Me Generation
In this age of No Win No Fee
Everybody else is to blame
Everybody, that is, except me.
The workers will still work
Exploited by their bosses,
For some sector has to pay
For the Pandemic’s losses.
Global warming effects
Many a far foreign land
While most of the population
Hide their heads in the sand.
So Happy New Year one and all,
May all prosper and thrive
The likely prospect being many
Will barely be able to survive.
2 years old, but still just as relevant

"I shall be like a tree planted by the river" Psalm 1:3 Holy Bible
Adapting to a choice position for a tree,
Bountiful results are expected eventually.
Cultivated as the tree grows.
Depicting its need for water that flows,
Ease of its tiny roots being hydrated well.
Flowing water will help it grow easy to foretell.
Grow strong young tree,
High and mighty, you will be.
Irrigated by the river now,
Joyous growth will endow.
Kissed by the sun your limbs will grow strong.
Leaves that will not wilt all year long.
Meditation day and night I will do,
Now that you have grown fully, I will be as blessed as you.
Only obeying the law of the lord.
Preparing never to be with the ungodly, is my reward.
Quietly I will rejoice in the Grace of God, His sincerity.
Righteousness will be rewarded with prosperity.
Sending your roots by the stream made you strong.
Trusting in the strength of the Lord’s word, I will belong.
Unyielding faith I will be like you, your leaves always green.
Validation is trust in the Lord as can be seen.
Whatever you do will prosper and so will I.
Xanthic flowers will grow around your trunk pretty to spy.
Yielding your fruit, plentiful season after season.
Zest bestowed upon your branches is the reason.
