To the window
Eyes travel for an arrow
In speed of effective allegro
Decorating attention's bravado
Remember me
Don't forget thy company I keep
To have you such night glee
When lonely you in sleep so deep
To the wall
Body lays to install
And rest in its stall
Sleeping muse drawl
Remember me
Don't forget thy company I keep
To have you such night glee
When lonely you in sleep so deep
To my comfy bed
Mind ease its dead
Blanket goes widespread
Hunting cold figurehead
Remember me
Don't forget thy company I keep
To have you such night glee
When lonely you in sleep so deep
Home alone, I crawl
Heart fuels the muse
In doubt, mind bawl
Searching quality cue
Remember me
Don't forget thy company I keep
To have you such night glee
When lonely you in sleep so deep
Down this big, long hall
I sleep, sleep, sleep
Till thoughts no longer ball
But run into dreams so deep
Remember me
Don't forget thy company I keep
To have you such night glee
When lonely you in sleep so deep
Many of you like doing this
With nothing much to account
All which flop trying to reminisce
The beautiful films night surmounts
I wish I could
Remember each and every inch
Of moments we spent in the wood
Which got my spirit winch
Taken sideways, swept as a web strung spider
Sand sugar legged staggered specimen lured by weightless
Drifters soon to be lifted by unruly tide's violent
Fears ditched for the squall enthrall of ocean fizzed caress
Bolstered by booming blue brew, cork floated
Swell surmounts without pattern or rationale, contankerous
Bobbed from below, five foot heads promoted
Bounced jack in boxes sprung from rolling realm rapturous
By tide's untimed tumult, sea steamed unite
Sapphire stew participants simmer, softening vegetables
Drawn to next wily wave, crest conquer delight
Drag of salt soaked slow motion moon cascade incredible
Roaring turquoise rise, crumb humans crafted
Into toys at mercy of lapis lazuli, control's essential revoke
Track formation, tremor with desirous laughter
Brought to cool commotion by compulsion utterly unspoke

- For Ace -
Attitude of gratitude-joy prevails
In my struggles to subdue towering pride
Marked by carnality's selfish greed…
Since God remains faithful* to correct my stubbornness
So I can stay humble under His great deliverance
Exalting HIM while basking in serenity bliss.
Passion for Bible-meditation reigns
Midst sorrows when passing through trials
Striving to hurdle persecution-tests…
Because God remains compassionate, helping me conquer fright
Reaching service-triumph’s peak through His miracles
Along supplication that propels stewardship-commitment .
Devotion toward life-building thrives
Despite hardships to fulfill granted roles
In discipleship and in sharing the Gospel...
For God remains gracious, powering up my victory
While my heart praises and thanks His redemption gift
As faith surmounts unbelief toward glorious worship.
*Deuteronomy 7:9 “Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations.”

As I sit once more in this chair,
trying to fit word to page in some nice way,
inspiration seems, this evening, rare;
my muse is distracted, keeping melancholy at bay.
I long for a soft, pliant embrace,
shared by a maiden draped in silken thread;
moonlight brightening her already radiant face,
and her enchanting smile, at what could lie ahead.
Her shining hair pours down her back,
like the rain in which we stand;
the right way she seems to lack,
as she looks to me for a guiding hand.
These hands glide down, around her waist,
and slowly we begin to dance.
Underneath the stars, our own new path is traced,
as we float along, in our lover's trance.
The feel of her, so near and so warm,
I cling to, like a drowner's lifeline;
her every sigh, her very form,
beyond my imaginings of the divine.
To go on like this, held enchanted
in her eyes, serenity's sweet founts,
I feel would be my heaven granted;
my trials, her affection surmounts.
The haze shimmers, the dream recedes,
leaving me dazed, shaken in its wake;
as ever and always, my heart bleeds,
craving an end to its boundless, yearning ache.
Away on a wheelchair
no fear on his face
my special child triumphs
to win trials’ race.
He zooms for improvement
along growth delight
and surmounts hindrances
to soar midst faith-flight.
By his transport freedom
he moves well with zest
Driving persistently
to reach success crest.
Praying with thanksgiving*
grateful for God’s care
my child sweetly hugs me
to show his love’s share.
*Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Silent pain am I screaming…
Robbing your soul of triumph
Making you languish in frustration angst
Inflicted by skepticism’s oppressive blight
Well, where is your belief in the Saviour, Source of mercy?
Have you forsaken His offered grace??
Oh, check now your relationship with Him...
Vanquish me with your affirmation:
“Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace
with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.”*
Silent pain am I screaming…
Haunting you of your transgression
Openly exposing guilt that carnal nature denies
Vexing your heart midst iniquities of arrogance
Along selfishness in the guise of faithful service…
Never can you hide your hypocrisy from the Almighty!
Are you aware of divine power that surmounts torment?
Will you take my challenge for genuine renewal??
Let me remind you of serenity-assertion that you once claimed:
“And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.”**
Silent pain am I screaming…
Knowing your spirit’s earnest confession
Surely, you need freedom from sin-bondage
Only God alone can grant---
Thus, trust Him to heal you from the agony
I’m causing by my afflictive sting…
What are you waiting for? Come to Him by faith
His assurance, take heed: “My soul, wait thou only upon God;
for my expectation is from him. He only is my rock and my salvation:
he is my defence; I shall not be moved.”***
*Romans 5:1; **Psalm 39:7; ***Psalm 62:5-6

Two eyes I have for God’s works to behold
praying to be spared from cataract
when birthdays would reveal my age is old.
Left and right ears toward comprehending
while learning through special child’s sign language
perceiving his sounds with understanding.
Midst tongue to feast on varied foods, tasteful
and mouth declaring of the Lord’s greatness
I smile with my dimples, indeed grateful.
Blest with nose to enjoy good scents' delight
aware of toxic odor that lingers
my smell-sense seeks therapeutic herbs' might.
Confronted with gray hair reality
sometimes denying very existence
I now yield to overt truth’s certainty.
Affirming face-expressions through gestures
my hands reach-out by the Spirit’s power
as faith surmounts fleshly adventures.
Striving always to step in Christ’s peace bliss
my feet falter with human nature flaw
yet move on sharing Gospel I won’t miss.
Bowing my head in supplication plea
heart admits sins needing Saviour’s pardon
I do offer* my life with obvious glee.
*Psalm 50:14 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High.

LITTLE THINGS #3:
Go on your way to see things right,
Poise learns each day to sense true light.
Learn to love all with a big heart,
In sweet and gall, live happy art.
Little things count with simple flair,
Joy now surmounts where feelings air.
The world awaits with fond blessings,
Walk through your fate with what you bring.
Live your best shot as best you can,
Love your own lot while you make plans.
Pure joy lives here in simple strides,
Little things cheer with easy tides.
Look deeper then to profound style,
Know that sure when little things smile.

Diagnosed with cerebral palsy blight
To progress toward retrogression strain
Our special child was spastic day and night
Struggling along restlessness’ grievous pain.
His global developmental delay
Marked by seizures that caused wearying shake
Made us constantly alert all the way
Aiding him, compassionately awake.
He is now fourteen, showing milestone leap
Driving wheelchair amidst triumphant zest
Learning much along good hygiene to keep…
His orphanage life proves miracles’ best.
God's love* surmounts disability’s need
With caring kindness, heart is surely freed.
*1 John 4:16 - And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Million people in this world
with aspirations touching the sky
different role a man plays in life
has countless blessings n insults.
hoped for the best result
but had to face the worst
was fully prepared for the test
but fate had something else for me.
loved him/her whole heartedly
despite,broke my heart repeatedly.
doubt about the fidelity of the spouse
or a battle to fight against disease.
feeling like hell as come upon you
no friend to share the grief
innumerable thoughts to end life
summoning the courage to do so.
when the problem totally surmounts you
and heart is crying ocean of tears
when pain the inside is burning
then plant a seed of confidence in heart.
nourish the seed with self trust and care
even the snow on the top will
be at your feet one day.
optimism is not being positive
all the time but smiling at failure
and ready to march forward with smile.
what is the use of love
which does not reciprocate properly
instead kills you with its memories and presence
nothing in this world is beautiful as life.
no problem is so big enough
to be foolish to end lives.
believe me,there is no man
who has not cried and wiped tears.
life is a parcel of tears and smiles
no second ceases but passes
enjoy all the moments
and do not cut them short.
man is the most intelligent being
but very foolish to commit suicide
kill the problem and throw it away
but not the wonderful life.
To see the fairy tale of our lives
hero should last till the end
fighting all the odds in the journey
and enjoying its beauty.
(A Poem for all,stating that suicide is not a permanent solution for problems in life but a coward's act.Value the gift given to us by god and remember that problems are also passing clouds and wont stay with us forever.)
