Premium Member PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR ADMONISHING US TO FEAR HIM REVERENTIALLY

July 20 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Proverbs 24-26

Key Verse – Proverbs 24:21 My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change. 

PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR ADMONISHING US 
TO FEAR HIM REVERENTIALLY	

Praise be to God for admonishing us to 
fear Him reverentially to overcome:
Mischievous persons with their meddling pestilence
Mishandled pressures due to mocking pleasures
Mismatched plans midst misbehaving posture
Mistaken plaudits caused by mystifying ploys
Misjudged pursuits along melting poverty

Proverbs 25:22 Praise be to the Lord for 
rewarding us for our:
Heart of honour
Hope against hell
Help for the helpless
Hunger toward holiness
Hatred against haughtiness
 
Proverbs 26:10 Praise be to the Saviour for 
rewarding us toward:
Victory from being a victim
Venture that vies over void vices
Virtuous vanquishing with our vow
Valuable vigour against vicious vanity
Valiant voyage against voluminous vexations. Amen!

Sol Invictus

Hollow odes lament where waves crash depthless

Oh! How ocean lacking light spills woe so!

Lackluster grays wail unkempt longingness

Lone stander bleeds the dreams of times ago

  

 O'er the screaming wind, a seagull's bleak cries

weeps of cloudiness usurping the day

Heaven's warmth obscured, and now coldness vies, 

overwhelming where vast emptiness slays

  

Left purposeless, wavering dark takes hold

looping tight a lynch-like corrosive noose

Otiose life sucks vim where sharks enfold,

wrecked in sunless abyss of night let loose

  

But Sol, unconquerable, beams once more

and the lighthouse sings, full of birds from shore!

  

(6/10/18)
Form: Sonnet

Think, willed by whom ye wield thy will

Ye miss O thou man in mindless vain mirth 
That every shade comes from His rainbow's range, 
Ye no more than copy Nature, no change,
The picture ye paint scarce depicts thy worth,  
Nor music—when His notes ye rearrange,
The mind ye use bestowed hast He at birth,
Not a miracle art thou ‘pon this Earth, 
A smart machine at best and scarce so strange. 

Take heed, should ye hail thy highly hung head?
Feel not so proud on thy mind's pompous powers, 
Ye might have made some tallest of towers, 
Not one vies with what Creation has made. 
   Get down from thy vainest pedestal, then, 
   Think, willed by whom ye wield thy will O man.

Premium Member The Indigo Crest - On the Commemorative Stamp of - Purple Rain By Prince

Written July 14, 2025, for contest Sponsored by: Robert James Liguori 
         ************

So tiny, yet so vast: a square of purple flame,  
A postal stamp formed from forever lame.  
Houses at its center a half-cast, cloudy glass, 
Trapped in a gilded cage of grief and lilac crevasse. 

Bedecked in the hue of storm-light, a figure stands,
A gaze carved from ache, hair as comet strands.  
Static roses, suffused in blue, stood behind,
Each petal burned by cords, yet spirit did not mind.  

Rain doesn't soak into his skin or asphalt as he vies, 
Yet, unshed tears flow from the dream to the sky.  
The water leaves his clothing with faint rings, 
But in this dampness, nostalgia unfurls its wings.

O, how you bend and blaze, purple witness— 
A design firmly woven into the yarn of threnody.  
Your quiet strength lingers as words fade,
A melody that pain cannot shatter or jade.

Let this stamp be a symbol in all mortal prayer—
For timid souls who dare not weep amid silk fare.  
A poignant lament for love wrapped in mauve grief, 
A message sent to a visitor, destined for the glyph.

Premium Member My Pearl From the Sea

                                   My Pearl from the Sea

                     How shall I survive, my pearl from the sea
                     Snatched away by a sneering storm at sea!

                       You were the apple of my eye, my dear,
                      Where shall I spot you in the immense sea!

                             Our voyage together was epitome 
                          Of bliss just envied by the jealous sea.

                            Life without you is a vain adventure
                          In the wide expanse of the dismal sea.

                           Life without your wonderful company
                              Is like sailing a lonely boat at sea.

                            Let it go, let it go that scornful storm
                          That drifted you in the depth of the sea.

                          My heart is the seat of a strapping storm
                         That vies to tear me amidst the rough sea.

                         The wilful winds of that tempestuous storm 
                          Are hurling my mind towards the deep sea.

                            If you cannot reach me, my lovely pearl
                            At your wish I`ll join you in the wild sea.

                             No barrier can keep you away from me, 
                               Not even the depth of the stormy sea.

                               No ferocious storm can keep us apart
                           Amidst the rolling waves of the harsh sea.

                                If not in this life, surely in next birth
                             We`ll meet on the beach of a lovely sea.

Premium Member From the Heart I'Ll Sing

I have a God given talent
I rejoice but not ever lament
They said it is a wonderful thing
I must do share and sing

Some may or may not listen
Even though as long as I win
Not of fame but of joyous hearts
For so long been gloom and apart

The high and low notes, I'll reach
Tactful enough to be on right pitch
I may swing in a fidget ditch
It's fine as long as I'll not miss

I will tunely swing both my arms
Harmoniously to the music at hand
I may open and close my eyes 
To feel each lyrics in vies

It's not only my voice that sings
Also does my heart it rings
Uncaring the people's glances
Displaying this in chosen chances

Blasphemy

BLASPHEMY 

What the WORLD say you are
Versus what the WORD say you are. 
They say "the child of human is human"
only because the human is borne out of woman. 
They say "A puppy is a juvenile dog" 
And it's birth have the others agog. 
Baby goat is a kid that neither walks nor hoops. 
The child of a Fox is a pups,
It hunt deep in the forest & mountain tops. 
Baby elephant is a calf whose growth never stops. 
The child of God is definitely a god. 
Divinity birthed and blood bond, 
Whisk back home with blast of the sound. 
Despite the first fall jettisoned my crown
Apple bitten, inheritance burnt down, 
Eden turned garden of no return & bytown. 
The written word couldn't be erased. 
Eternity is the duration our life is placed
To felicitate with our kind. 
Everything produces after it kind:
Which means the child of God is a god
And never will he fall under his sword. 
Protagonist of this truth vies with counterfeit. 
Fanatics fails to comprehend it,
Fundamentalist fumes at the god idea. 
Only the truth can set you free, my dear! 
Salvation is the new birth into the "God clan". 
The God bloodline runs deep in man. 
With inflammatory loathsome lavished lines, 
they cursed our blessed lives. 
Blasphemy is their summary, 
No thanks to their oblivion of divine chemistry. 
The World fails to understand this word:
"Though you're IN this World, 
Remember, you're not OF this World".

Premium Member The Butterfly Jinn

One jinn butterfly flew on his wings three wishes lay.
One wish was for true beauty to grace forms caste of clay.

For though all things are beautiful, their mind doeth say neigh
And discord comes when envy vies and jealousy doest play.

And once man’s reached reality as to truth he’s reborn
The butterfly in me would wish true kindness would form.

Kindness, so that none would hurt another and fear be allayed,
kindness for each and every day, so anger and hatred are kept at bay.

The third and final wish my jinn butterfly would carry
Would be forgiveness when in weakness good men do tarry.

Each of us like the butterfly feel trapped ‘tween the glass
Praying to fly free before our glory days have passed.

Love, what if unrequited

What today weighs light in your life
Would one day swell, feel fairly rife,
Pages of your life, getting full,
Would look ever so beautiful.

What seems today unknown to you--
You who has not known what is love-- 
Would when love sparkles with its hue,

Leaving today out of my groove,
I feel lost but not of my hope,  

My love still gives you a long rope--

A rope that ties

Defies,

Vies.
