Let Er Rip

"Remove all shackles that take away your bliss. Enjoy a blissful life " Quote by author
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Following innumerable rules,
A life of bondage we live
Copying others, trying to be same
Scared what others may think
We never lead life our way

Dressing up to please others
In our best behaviour to impress 
Wanting to prove we are the best
We literally live for others

Our real self hidden behind a facade
Without a thought about its feelings
Egoistic humans still criticize us
Is it worth it? Why not be true?

Rip the rules that bind
Rip the fears that make you timid
Use your brain and live sensibly
Pave way for a much-needed change

Still a kid at heart, behaving like an adult
Wanting to cry, controlling emotions
Dressing up for society, not as per comfort
Whole life is a saga of falsehood

Our happiness and peace long forgotten
Our opinions crushed daily dying within
How perfectly we copy others 
Determines our success in life

Blindly following what parents told
Without thinking why we should do
Afraid of being a laughing stock
We lead an unintelligent life

Why not be your true self
Live for your inner bliss
Same inside out, no masking
Am sure many would follow

All are stifled from within
Wanting a solution but scared
Why not be brave and lead
Many would be thankful to you

Look at animals, no rules to obey
They live for self not for others
Enjoying every moment of existence
Much we can learn from surround

Our life is short, anytime it can end
Still we bother so much about world
Scriptures say we are not body but soul
We just don't bother to find out more 

A puppet to senses and world
Is this right way of living?
So many things that we need to rip 
To see the truth and be truthful

We have to tear the illusion that we are body
We need to tear our egoistic tendencies
Tear all our desires that rob us of our peace
See soul, live for soul and God and inner joy.

Bhagvad Gita 2.11: The Supreme Lord said: While you speak words of wisdom, you are mourning for that which is not worthy of grief. The wise lament neither for the living nor for the dead.

The Good Die Young

the good die young
Jonny was a good man
he was a man of his words
who sacrificed all he got
for the sake of his people
he never lived a life of lies
so truthful to his community
he offer help to everyone in need
he always gave to the poor
lend to the needy
he was the spoke man
of his people
he will never gave up the right
of his people for nothing
not for anything

the good die young
Jonny was a man of peace
yet despite all set and done
haters of humanity won't 
let Jonny be 
they criticised all he has done 
they never saw no good in 
his deeds
all the time they say 
he was fake 
haters always put him down
in every way possible
every of his progress 
they try to change to lie

the good die young 
oh Jonny a noble man
unluckily Jonny was ill
laying on a sick bed 
surprisingly no one turns up 
to know how Jonny fares
no hater  no lovers
Jonny suffered a deep pain
from his illness
hoping to be helped 
by his people he shared
all he had with 
to no avail no one showed up
on no what a world 
Jonny weep 
now i understand why 
they  say 
the good die young 

the good die young
Jonny lament in pain 
day and night 
dieing in silence
looks like no one cares 
at long last Jonny pass away
What A World

the good die young
moral thought
is good to be good 
but 
is bad to be too good 
they ends you up to regret
the good deed of one 
is his legacy that lives 
for enternity 
becarefull? when you are good
not everyone will notice
and appreciate but 
a good person never change
guess why 
the good die young

Premium Member Evening Magic


By Mystic Rose and Robert James Liguori

When the sun goes down on this hillbilly town
I will meet you there where the stars never frown
Down in the valley where the trees breathe easy
you and I will walk the sea slow, then easy-peasy
and as your arm encircles me I will whisper poetry

Roses in full bloom in a magical night of romance
we together as one two tender petals hand in hand
rolling towards the wispy winds like a lovers dance
Then with precision we will write in the sultry sand
the truthful words of our destined, happenchance

When the whispering is through, I'll belong to you
as the paint on a palomino foal is golden new
our love together will glisten true
And then, getting in my rinky-dink truck
we'll ride back to town, while the sun comes up

Premium Member FAITH IN GOD WHO INVITES US TO COME TO HIM

July 28 Faith in God Bible Meditations Based on Isaiah 1-4 
 
Key Verse –  Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

FAITH IN GOD WHO INVITES US TO COME TO HIM	

God invites us to come to Him and to His perfect will
Where our faith rests in His assurance of “peace be still”
There we remember Christ’s sacrifice on Calvary’s hill
While He exhorts us that His commission we can fulfill.

God invites us to come to Him for His safe keeping
Where our faith soars along righteous leaping
There we walk with His light upon divine stepping
While He enables us to labour in His work for abundant reaping.

God invites us to come to Him inside His sweet fellowship
Where our faith is settled in His relationship’s friendship
There we share His partnership in our discipleship
While He favours us of our truthful and genuine worship.

God invites us to come to Him to His sanctuary
Where our faith is increased by His Word’s treasury 
There we flourish to grow in His grace for His glory
While He empowers us to serve Him with His victory.

God invites us to come to Him for His ministry-opportunities
Where our faith overcomes worldly vanities
There we involve in advancing His kingdom by Scripture-verities
While He helps us conquer worries and anxieties.

God invites us to come to Him toward revival fire
Where our faith is upheld for what we spiritually aspire
There we beseech Him to grant our prayer-filled desire
While He meets us by His love that does not expire.

God invites us to come to Him according to His instruction
Where our faith is strengthened by His granted eternal salvation
There we learn to prioritize Him with sincere devotion
While He leads us toward His triumphant direction.

Premium Member PEACE OF MIND

   Peace of mind is the unique quality
   of any individual person
   depending only on own emotion
   identifying personality.
   
  Life is a struggle, life is a challenge.
   Path of life is not smooth, but uneven.
   On you, vast field of action is given.
   You think on peace of mind, how to manage !
   
  One may not go for conflict to carry.
   Peace of mind is being’s priority.
   Other confronts on own ability,
   leaving peace of mind as secondary.
   
   Dynamic activity at random
   can never get along with peace of mind.
   Turbulence and irritations entwined.
    Peace may leave, while working in broad spectrum.
    
    Enthusiastic aggressive being
    hardly bothers about peaceful environ.
    ‘Righteousness’ is only criterion.
    ‘Work for each other’ : Song of life to sing.

    In life peace of mind is not the target
    Be compassionate and stand for justice
    Be ruthless truthful to destroy malice.
    Act always right, even peace to forget.

Scene 1 - In a cabin on the Mountain side: 
      " Kenny, you ol' Food Dog you. How was your trip" '" Long and boring. I came as soon as I got your letter. How's Chef doing?"
"Not well, they have him over at the old folks home, they want to commit him for Dementia; as Executor of his estate they need 
your signature." " I doubt they'll get that." " A Dr. Mendelsohnn has a status meeting tomorrow at 2" " Well what happened? "Chef
was on one of his nature walks when he ran into two hikers, they got scared and called 911, said there was a crazy man in the woods.
By time the cops got up here Harry was home." "Who was with him, Phil who was with him?" " Kenny, it was Black Friday everyone
was at work" " Jesus Christ, Sorry Lord. Phil, you guys promised never to leave him alone after he was diagnosed with stomach cancer"
" Sorry Ken I got called into work, Chef said he felt fine, you know how Chef is about working." Yea I know, but we also know he's 
not always truthful about his health. So they just took him away" Not really, when Mike got here there was 4 cop cars in the yard, they
had to literally drag him out. Chef wasn't acting sane. Dr. Mendelsohnn said he has Dementia, and wants to commit him to Easy Rest Adult Care."
" Not a problem, Phil, Does the year 2004 and 2007 mean anything to Chef" "Redsox World Series Wins." Right , Chef said when he doesn't 
remember them, then it's time to leave this realm

Premium Member Life Is Like a Puzzle

Life is like a puzzle
The cannon cannot move
Without it paddle
Create this words
and that is what to say
Create this path 
And that is the way
Being truthful is righteousness
And that leads 
To freedom and happiness
And wickedness brings violence
For one thing leads to another
The sunny weather
Brings about the rainy weather
The failure of man
Is his down fall
If you throw a ball
Towards a wall
It bounces back to you
You shall surely reap
What you sow
If you do not 
Think of enslaving me
There won't be slavery
For bad imagination
Is negative perception
And positivity is perfection

Liars

Liars

Looking and staring
Singing and lofting
So agile and charismatic
All for the essence of the belly.

I've built mansions
And own exotic cars
But in reality a pauper
The honour is just for a moment but expires

He assaulted or raped me
But in reality snubbed a frequent advances
Making an innocent to suffer an unjust cause.
There's nothing done without rewards.

I love you
You own every part of my life
Without you I can't breathe
We're destined to be married

Yet several abortions are gone to your credit.

We serve a living God
And our church was built on the center of the holy spirit
But a corpse was buried as part of the foundation
And several abortions are to the credit of the Pastor.

All have rewards and will soon be made known

Sweet is their voices
That one will have no choice but to buy 
Cos they're respected with ovations
As they build Castles in a minute

But in all truth they lack ideas.

Liars don't fade away
But their integrity is zero
Rich and well respected
Yet they have no life.

Come over and hear my plight
How best it is to be truthful?
You may be in want without honour
But you have life

Liars are the prodigals of truth
Whose lives are channelled on their talks
Do they know the Bible?
Hope they'd learned from Ananiah and Saphirah.

Dark Forces

Dark Forces

 There is a sense of ennui the déjà vu after a feast
life is not what we thought it was, the banner of battle
no longer flies on top of the town hall.
The hero is not a hero but a figure fluctuating in the wind
and ruled by outside forces where he is only the visible  
to fool the world into a shared vision of bravery.
There are so many other problems the scourge of pest
the sizzling heat burning human skin crisp
and rain that kills and sea that floods the landscape.
The undertone is getting louder; we have been lied to
dark forces seek a unipolar world, malleable people
into enslavement, where words are no longer truthful 
but lies are endlessly repeated until lies are the truth.
It is late in the day, but there is a rumble of a fightback 
the freedom of the individual precariously wilts like 
grains of life die if not rescued by the rain of revolt.

Dying Embers

The once raging fires
Have been stilled
The joy of relationship
Nearly killed
Somebody needs to
Constantly prod the grate
Before it is too late
She does make efforts
A crackling sound heard
And then
A deafening silence
Not a word
Stoking a dying fire
Who’s truthful?
Who’s a liar?
Never easy to decide
Now uneasiness rides
She doused the flames
She accepts the blame
Result- the dying embers
So now, frantic efforts
Naturally, all hers
But sadly
There’s nothing left
To recover
It’s either
A constant dwelling
In the exhilarating past
Or a hopeless hope
For the future
Or just wait!
Maybe too early
To sound
Life’s death knell
Tomorrow
Anything can happen
Who can tell?
As long as the embers glow
There’s still a chance
Whether high or low
