By the river Piedra I sat and wept

By the river Piedra I sat and wept

By the river Piedra I sat down and wept,
With secrets and sorrows too heavy to be kept.
In six short nights, my life somersaulted,
And all of my plans were suddenly halted.

You have grown to a stalwart with lurking eyes,
And I am here with my swollen eyes.
After all these years, "Why now?" I asked,
"Why seek a future that might not last?"

"Why can't it be now?" you retorted,
"Why live in the shadows of years we’ve aborted?"
"I have loved you," I said, "under heaven’s firmament,
While you were in the monastery, seeking refinement."

You were sophisticated, yet you chose me,
But I was so confined, and I still doubt what you see.
"Am I just your distraction?" I asked you,
While clearly you are my heart's destination.

I asked, "Did my love keep you back from your mission?"
You said, "Love is the light that strengthens our vision."
They say you can heal;
Will you reclaim the heart that you dared to steal?

You perceived the feminine face of God,
While I hid my own face, feeling lost and so odd.
You promised to be my Joseph,
Yet I know I am not the Maria for you.

With a desperate heart and a spirit apart,
I turn from the engine's heat;
And you are there,
To heal my heart's despair.

FAITH IN GOD WHO HELPS US ALONG HIS PEACE	

God helps us along His peace midst His mercy
Always attentive to hear our prayer of persistency
Truly commanding our faith to trust His power’s fervency…
Ever prospering us with blessings granted by His excellency. 

God helps us along His peace midst His presence
Always joyful to consume our sorrow of despair’s essence
Truly governing our faith with His favour’s iridescence…
Ever securing us against grief’s license. 

God helps us along His peace midst His compassion
Always loving to forgive us from guilt’s oppression
Truly ruling over our faith with His vision…
Ever directing us to fulfill His great commission. 

God helps us along His peace midst His life-building
Always ready to assist by His upholding
Truly setting our faith with His constant guiding…
Ever enclosing us around His guarding. 

God helps us along His peace midst His might
Always protective to lock us within His truth’s insight
Truly keeping our faith upon His Scriptures so right…
Ever insuring us of His success in our good fight. 

God helps us along His peace midst His greatness
Always sturdy to straighten us against feebleness
Truly reviving our faith toward service-productiveness…
Ever watching over us against hindrances’ destructiveness. 

God helps us along His peace midst His victory
Always triumphant to prevail in worship for His glory
Truly inspiring our faith to smite worry that brings misery…
Ever driving us in sharing His Gospel story.

Premium Member A Passing Breeze

Oh trembling breeze, where are you bound
You pass by like a whisper of wind
Then flutter your wings to higher ground 
To a cave where your breeze must descend

What took the wind from such sad sails
Who cast your heart far out to sea
What storm blew your course off trembling rails
And why must you flutter past me

Too long you've sought solace in your cave
That creed only breeds indecision 
It binds you and makes you a slave
Darkness finds and blinds your vision

Oh trembling breeze, where are you bound
Stay awhile and make a new friend
Don't pass by, let's share common ground
And smell the breeze of a fresh new wind

Rain

my sorrow
comes and goes
fluctuating
Like
april showers
but
progressively
has
some flooding
powers.
My rain
falls and falls
until
My entire body
aches
of cold
and my shoes
sopping wet
overflow
until my legs feel like bricks
And a clear spot
is just over the horizon
while
the birds
shake off the
water
from the tips of their wings
I peer above
as the clouds
hang heavier
and
the wind picks up
I hold tightly
To my body
For this
Horrid weather just wont stop
And I try to find cover
And 
Company
But
In truth
All I find
Is
Mud puddles
Rain 
Slapping down my back
Vision blurred
I am trapped
Muddling my brain
To leap
over 
These tiny oceans
Is harder than it sounds
But to continue to further sink into
My own
Despondency
Destructive nature
Of my
Heart will
Not win 
Today

Premium Member Let Us Come Together As One Let Us Come Together and Fall In Love-

I thank God for you
Maybe I will and maybe I won't
Jump them high hurdles for you
Maybe I will maybe I won't
Pray that you no longer be lonely for I
Do spy I am not shy I see the vision Oh, my
O my

For then if everything is beautiful
 and everything so bountiful 
And if everything so plentiful 
Where would I be if I just had only me
I thank God for me
Oh I thank God for releasing me
Err so ever abundantly now I'm free
Set up to court thee, let's us come together,
  and fall in love

To be as one let us come 
Come us together to be as one 
Let us come together 
and fall in love

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr  2021


Missionaries

They heard a voice, they responded 
Though indistinctive the call, unclear their destination 
Waiting not for a signed correspondence 
They mobilized and departed to their destination 

Then arrived the challenges staring at their face 
The seas, the deserts there  to cross 
Thirst,  hunger and starvation,  theirs to face 
Yet determined to bear their cross 

Lost in the wilderness, searching for the lost souls 
As week stretch into months and months expand into years
Traveling miles without end because of their love for lost souls 
Yet they have no plan to retreat  even after many years 

Not that they are fugitive, fugitives run away from home 
Not that they are  vagabond, vagabonds have no home 
Not that they are  wanderer, wanderers are far away from home 
They are pilgrims, like pilgrims they are heading home 

Suffering man's blatant inhumanity to man 
Undetered for they know they are on a mission 
The vision, on their face fiercely  to man 
As in the manners of every deputation 

Trekking long miles of single-file roads
Enduring crude moist heat and drenching rains 
The nuisance of mosquitoes and sand flies en road 
And myriad indigenous wild insects and pains 

Righteousness and morality prayerfully to seek 
Like humanitarians caring nothing for their own  lives 
So long as they could preach the message, heal the sick
And bring education and enlightenment to people's lives

Premium Member One Vision of a World Turned Upside Down

A silver shawl hangs heavy over the mountain 
sky grey clouds shooting gun barrel smoke hiding sunlight 

Looking out towards the ocean dreaming in wild north Atlantic waves
tides turn a little lamb suffering in the spring crouched cold 

We all see visions of injustices flash before our eyes turn
for which no one is held responsible the standing joke of our century 

So many people turn a blind eye as their souls have already been bought
children of this world have suffered at the hands of tyrant slave masters 

Born free without chains attached what gives any race the God given right 
killing innocent women and children destroying families unjust actions 

Some of us on this planet are sick with an untrustworthy state of affairs
listening to what these monstrous brutes get away with 

In the name of peace not twisted truths building bridges instead of walls 
who ever sells arms are terrorists against the living  

Democracy has no grounds only love the suffering because 
behind the mask many in this world condemn us 

Branded from birth marked as slaves unto a system each of us a number
piercing bullets flash before the eyes redemption knowing whats true

Premium Member Reverie

My thoughts have rounded to you again ,
you are so distracting .             I want my thoughts to ease

themselves with reverie and rest                 upon all that you are .
My examinations hold you   undividedly

and are always pleasantly delicious .
I want to swim in all your colors

and dive below the surface.   I want to see you as nobody sees you ,

every shade and shadow and hue lit with a
clear beam of light highlighting all that is tangibly held within .

To make you freely visible and to appreciate the volume

which is filled in you .
You hold me like so many others who gaze intently

upon all that can be seen in you.

A life so precious and quality endearing ,              I want to touch
that beauty and hold it through every age in time .

I want all to know        what I see .

To reach out and posses everything that makes you unique.
To bath every shade in the light that we may fully see the vision .
That it my be planted firmly grow and take root

and become breathtaking in it’s future.

I have made them visible so that all may see your Glory.
So that our Love will be a shining light for all

Owe no one anything, except to love each other,
for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.

Premium Member Atlantis

~ATLANTIS~   Featuring:) Kelly Deschler

-------
Can't be re-written by the Gods
The land and sands of time'
Destroyed by the fire of Poseidon's curse 
Atlantis swallowed by: Earth
--------

In one day and one night
Peaceful existence met its end
Built on a volcano, now surrounded by ancient rippled tears
Lava stripped apart the rich and glorious empire
Enriched by Engineers and Architects whom loved power more than the Gods 
Forgotten souls, sheltered by a watery grave
History withheld from shallow sunken memories,
Western sky's hide the truth, a vision from the Pillars of Hercules
"An island situated in front of The Strait of Gibraltar"
Ghostly ruins wait to rise above the Mediterranean and Atlantic Waves
A magical island held down by the hands of death, 
~
Atlantis lost city walls ---a secret hidden by mermaids
Partially buried, beneath the ocean floor it lies
The largest sunken treasure never to be found
Magnificent pillars of an imperial palace still stand
Somewhere hidden under ancient sand
Some are leaning against turrets, that toppled after the impact
Nothing human will ever inhabit these walls
No feet will ever touch these staircases, again
Only an eerie silence now resides here, with the blue-green waters   
Seaweed grows along it's outer walls, like ivy on a trellis.
Obscuring it even further from the human eye.
~
Other ocean tides will never compare
Tantalizing blend of fantasy and mystery
Stone walls covered with precious gems
 -Listen to PLATO'S voice-
"Look close, Look close, into the sea!"
Through the light and Pillars of Hercules
Some where out there buried in the vast 
ATLANTIS THE PARADISE
