That bursts a whole in his...

Premium Member Haughty Display Drove Humpty Dumpty To His Fall
Humpty Dumpty starred in a nursery rhyme…
His fall accordingly was the talk at that time
Soon it was labeled as a mysterious crime
Needing solution through wisdom’s prime!

Compliant to prudent investigative requirement.

We Have Been Here Before
Though years slip by through time
  if you live long enough and rewind;
  you get to see that history
  is ever a  repetitive cyclic mystery.

Refugees and immigrants raped

Contrary to her name was neither merry nor cool
Igniting sparks of fear, she remained a terror
No wonder, students looked upon her in horror

There was an uncontrollable anger streak
In her...

The Gospel

To carefully examine the argument 
But, how can I see?
The towering walls of unbelief;
Veiling my curious vision
To the delight of the stony heart - 
Arrows of wise...

Praise
Praise, a chronic disease
Ruins humanity
Increases sugar in blood
Spreads intoxicants in artery
Hangs a curtain before eyes
Hides truth.

Mind dips in self-enchanting
Always seeks false praising words
Credits
Clappings
Honours
Rewards
All treasures of materialistic world !
Mind guides the human
Mind commands the soul
Instigated by...

Premium Member The Crime and Curse of Cain
God, you said to offer a lamb,
but your wish puts me in a jam.
Why kill a lamb? I am no brute,
I’ll sacrifice instead some fruit.

Like Lucifer in heaven on high,
you view me with an evil...

I Returned To the Sea
I can smell the wind in my face 
Salt air in my mouth-my skin
I become the other world I am in;
Walking against the breeze as it 
grows
But  nobody knows or gives two 
crows..
That's OK...

Boys and Girls Who Dream And They Die
These days I often find myself
lying on my pristine rock, hard bed 
thinking about why the world would 
ever care about someone like me. 
I wonder how my thoughts ever drifted
this far. Maybe social media?

My words are pert and curt
and right in right that's hurt
give them space or get disgraced
I am infallible do not come around my poems
give me my medicine and send me on pace.

The Sin of Pride

Upon a throne of gilded lies,
Pride sits, with fire in its eyes.
A whispered voice, a velvet snare,
It lifts you high, then leaves you bare.

A mirror polished, sharp and clear,
Reflects the face we long to cheer.
But...

Milking Cow
Owning a barn was one of your wish lists
Reaping a fruit tree is not a work of an altruist.

Wonder if you’ll eat them at once: Savor it!

Into dense darkness
Thick quiet nothingness
Almighty God spoke light

Perhaps angels trumpeted praises with singing
Perhaps a profound silence revered the aura

     Perhaps it was then the radiant vision was born

A forgiven sinner, beloved sister, volunteer teacher, cheerful care-giver

I like to share the Gospel, disciple students, write poems for Christ...

Premium Member Yielding To the Divine Transformer
I yield
my self-conceit
…disguised…
as sheer meekness;  
false humility
radiating
deceit,
needing God
for His pardon.

Here am I
surrendered
to Christ's love and might
ready to be transformed
through His divine nature*...
Albeit a snake
tamed am I graciously 
by the Sovereign Charmer...
Grateful, my heart praises...

Instilled in us by Dutch uncles and mothers

World On Verge of Self Destruction
The world teeters on the verge of self destruction
As humankind devours human kindness
In missions bereft of conciliation construction
Which rebuilds and fields flowers of happiness.

When humankind withholds warmth
Preferring to promote self...

PHRASIS STREAMS part 1	
Brooding,a pensive contemplation
vulnerable in thought,unsure in deed,
fear interplays with unsaid concerns.
Crestfallen,tearfully blue,opportunity
slips into the shallows,a temperament
still-born,a memorial of stone,dated
&surreal.Unable to relate,this failure
impacts all around and perpetually
reciprocates as inner yearning grows.
