*"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." Proverbs 3:5-6 of King James Bible
Claiming God’s favor everyday
My soul does seek heavenly ray…
Divine flame functionally shines
And faith beholds miracle signs.
Scheduled plans, though prayed for truly
Sometimes can change so suddenly
Causing angst, confronting my role…
Yet flame of peace comforts the soul.
As internet glitches cause frown
Bringing stress from toes toward crown…
My frustration angsts escalate
Then child laugh-flame makes woes deflate.
Health conscious --- that’s me, I confess
Treating self with gracious duress…
When I get sick, body does rest
Needing strength flames toward work zest.
When busy midst tasks to fulfill
Adrenalin ascends uphill…
Phone rings for a chat delightful
Marked by “The Lord is so faithful.”
With interference-radiance
By the Holy Ghost’s sweet guidance…
I’m preserved, so well-protected
Thankful, sublimely elated.
Listening to the Scriptures preached
My spirit is ardently reached
Since the Lord talks to me, His child
Leading through love, graciously styled
Flame of hope for tenacious stand
Keeps me warm daily in God’s hand
Showing goodness of Almighty
I trust* upon truth’s certainty.

About Lucey, a Ragdoll Cat: Saved from Death
Lucey was my feline dream!
I had never seen such love from a cat's eyes
~ so heavenly stream.
No, I did not find her at a shelter!
She was at the Vet's scheduled for death,
And in dire need of a loving helper.
There she was locked in a cage waiting for
the terminal needle.
Her owner had passed and asked Lucey die,
to be put down too, which I thought that request
was horribly and morbidly feeble.
With my auburn long hair, I knelt down to
this queen, whispering softly,
"Mommy is here!"
Her front paws reached out from the cage,
grabbed my neck, oh, my she was so bubbly!
I had to make my case, as a lawyer does to
spare her client the death penalty!
But to make this poem come to its conclusion,
the Vet did set Lucey free.
She was the only cat I ever had, who just
loved to lie in bed with me!
And purposely watch the raindrops rolling down
the window together!
She was the essence of heaven for me.
I was able to carry her around the house
in my arms.
She'd wrap her paws about my grateful
neck, her body so fluffy and full...total
charm, so warm in my arms!
God took her home quite suddenly, it rent
my heart in two!
All I have left is memories and an astounding
photo, now in words, in this poem, too!
And yes, Lucey! Wherever you are in
God's celestial, eternal universe....
I am fiercely loving and eternallly
grateful for every moment ~
I was so richly blessed, to share with you.

Time - tormentor tic-tocks on going
Deep darkness daunting tickings
little phasing seconds mounting
In a kingdom full of minutes
When I thought of the time
Somewhat louder than the climb
Only this and a date
I am scorn of my wait
That second walk - that second walk
I crave the high, higher hour time daunting tickings
member I was awaiting
Only this and a hour daunting tickings
I crave the unswayed, unmoved update
That moment my soul grew tarry
It threw its ghost against the minutes
I crave the scheduled, short-time surrender
against the minutes
tick-tok-tic tock seconds, minutes, hours
Days, weeks, months, years, decades, generation

UNDONE
Scheduled work is remaining incomplete
In right time couldn’t show proper concern.
Silly mistakes, unable to delete.
Life to end, yet so many things left undone.
Dragging life in last phase, time now too short
No use even I put full devotion.
Circumstances did not favour, all lost .
Life to end, yet so many things left undone.
Unable to manage difficulties
though tried best on utmost dedication.
But could not overcome adversities.
Life to end, yet so many things left undone.
Endured failure also accessed success.
In normal course grief and joy came by turn,
also love and betrayal more or less.
Life to end, yet so many things left undone.
Enjoyed life, also performed duties,
but failed to fulfill all my ambitions.
Couldn't assess which was my priority.
Now life ends, yet so many things left undone.
I have neither scope nor time to rectify !
So I desire for re- incarnation.
On my next birth my life will glorify !
Now life ends, yet so many things left undone.
It seems that, much to my elation,
they’ve scheduled me for an ablation,
the actual ramification
being no more need for medication.
The actual source of frustration
has been atrial fibrillation;
regularity takes a vacation
and causes a thumping sensation.
Electrical cauterization
shuts down the heart’s over-stimulation
via pathway elimination
of excess cardiac innervation.
‘Twould be nice to see a cessation;
there are certainly good indications -
the hard work and culmination
of research in my generation.
In the process of ideation,
the heart boasts personification,
depicted in fine illustrations
of longing and imagination.
And so, Lord, grant my supplication
and eliminate all consternation,
such that I might thy glorification
continue with much adoration
and improved syllabification.
Annoying Annalise does whatever she can to bother her class.
Smoke and mirror she uses are loud, annoying, and a little crass.
Her teacher is beyond knowing exactly what to do.
Annalise has been bothering people since the age of two.
She wants attention, but her parents are workaholics who are busy.
They are in enough sports and 10K runs to make you an athlete dizzy.
Annalise gets so little attention at home, she goes nuts at school.
Poking, prodding, slapping, sticking, following no golden rule.
Teachers have encouraged Annalise’ parents to get her into softball.
There are too many games already, and more scheduled for fall.
Games for her mom and her dad, in the family one and two.
Annalise wants attention from someone, so annoying is what she’ll do.
(God's Patience with Sinners / Final Judgment)
LK 13:6-9
And he told them this parable: "There once was a person who had a fig tree planted in his orchard, and when he came in search of fruit on it but found none, he said to the gardener, 'For three years now I have come in search of fruit on this fig tree but have found none. (So) cut it down. Why should it exhaust the soil?' He said to him in reply, 'Sir, leave it for this year also, and I shall cultivate the ground around it and fertilize it; it may bear fruit in the future. If not you can cut it down.'
Reflection
People make mistakes
Fig tree is like a woman scheduled for abortion
President Obama mandate is to take care of them
Leave it for this year
It will develop and bear fruit in the future
Form:
Each day dawns laden with secrets.
The morning dews are crystal balls,
each holding a secret trailer of
a fragment of day.
The birds, chirping incessantly,
gossip among themselves about the
delightful things you’ll find at
the weekend market.
In the crevice between the sun's
virginal light and last night's shadows,
an old friend waits for a
scheduled chance encounter,
bearing a gift of forgotten memories.
Fresh brew drips into the carafe of your
old coffee machine, tapping out
a Morse code of the new
thoughts and feelings that will percolate
into your brain in the hours to come.
And the curtains billow with echoes
of the laughs to be laughed.
The day is waiting to confess
its plans for you.
PERFECT CIVILIZATION
Civilization must follow one and only religion:
HUMANITY.
Every child to get facility
of free education.
No discrimination,
showing Global integrity.
Health issues of populace
to place
under responsibility of Government.
In every CONTINENT
COMMITMENT
on each sector will run on efficiency
under ‘HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY’.
Political Leaders will not be chosen
by ELECTIONS.
No other options
but would-be Administrators to go through scheduled course
in University to get qualified.
Leaders to be selected through interviews
and proper training as in other profession.
NO WAR:NO RACISM
HUMAN RACE is the only one RACE
to progress in glory and grace.

I’d been a singer for many, many years,
More often than not, at the local clubs and bars.
Then it happened one day, and through all the happy tears
I realized that I’d made it…I was finally a star.
I loved being noticed and written about by the press.
It was as if all of my dreams had come true.
I was as famous as they came, a huge success.
From high on my perch, I had a beautiful view.
For years, I made more money than I could possibly spend,
And I had the fortune of living the good life.
But it all came with a price, and in the very end
My fame took its toll on me, my kids, and my wife.
I didn’t mind the autographs once in a while,
And the scheduled appearances were also fun.
But as time went on, it got harder to keep a smile.
I just didn’t have enough to give to everyone.
I couldn’t go the park with my wife and kids
Without being surrounded by a bunch of fans.
It was amazing to see that no matter what I did
I couldn’t spend the day just being a normal man.
I just wanted to be able to go to the store
And go shopping with my family without the noise.
It got to the point where I couldn’t take any more.
I just wanted a normal life for my wife and boys.
As my friend once said, I’m a prisoner of my own fame.
He was right, you know…so I had to retire.
Things for me will never again be the same,
Which is great…my spirits have never been higher.
