Anthem for the heart
By Michelle Morris
01/01/2023
This is not a love song
It's an anthem for the heart
All those crazy emotions
That tear it all apart
This is not a love song
It's an anthem for your soul
Try to choose true love
'Cos it's the love that makes you whole
Whenever you get down
Remember that you've got you
You need to be your best friend
The love of your life too
Not in a vain fashion
But self-love and acceptance true
You need to love yourself first
Before you can ask others to do it too
This is not a love song
It's an anthem for the heart
All those crazy emotions
That tear it all apart
This is not a love song
It's an anthem for your soul
Try to choose true love
'Cos it's the love that makes you whole
Learn to know yourself best
Understand your soul
Learn to work through things
Before they get out of control
We all need healing
Everyone's a mess
No one has it all together
So be gentle with your quest
This is not a love song
It's an anthem for the heart
All those crazy emotions
That tear it all apart
This is not a love song
It's an anthem for your soul
Try to choose true love
'Cos it's the love that makes you whole
This is not a love song
It's an anthem for the heart
Embrace the deepest truth
That love is all we are
This is not a love song
It's an anthem for your soul
We are all in this together
Feel the love that brings you home

For all those who have experienced the loss of a loved one, I hope you find your way through it... Blessings and best wishes...
Sense of loss
By Michelle Morris
07/03/2021
The loved one you lost may no longer be here but they will always live on in your memories...
And that devastating pain that is screaming in your soul reminds you of how much they meant to you...
There is no escaping that sense of loss...
And in reality you may go on living as best you can but you will never be the same...
On a molecular level, something shifts in us when we deal with a loss of that magnitude...
It is important to remember that our loved ones would want us to thrive, not just survive, this trauma...
Your loved one will always be with you in spirit and memories, and you will hopefully find comfort in that, always...
Embrace your pain, face your loss, work through your feelings...
For you cannot go around it...
You have to go through it...
And your pain will soften and surrender to love in its deepest essence within your soul...
In time...
In truth...
In hope...
With faith...
With love...
With light...

If you have experienced a tough break-up like a divorce, please take care and be gentle with yourself. You need time to process your emotions and you definitely need time to grieve.
Even if the end of a relationship is good for us in the long run, we still have feelings to work through. Don't let anyone rush your process. Blessings and hugs.
You are entering a new chapter
By Michelle Morris

You can put the burden down
You can rest your weary heart
You can take time to walk through memories
To process your emotions and your grief's part
It is over now (and you need space)
That timeline is complete
You are entering a new chapter
Your life path is revealing its secrets
For we can't hold on to the Darkness
Those demons that try to tear us down
Whether loved ones or situations
We have to move on and straighten our crowns
It is not for others to push you
It is no one's journey but your own
Go within and find your own peace
Embrace your strength alone
For the memories that we carry
Are best kept sweet and pure
Releasing the hurt and pain
Is better for our ascension tour
No more baggage or grim cages
We can be Light and Love and Freedom
For every single Soul deserves
A blessed Life filled with Meaning

Spirits in line with continuity
Shining bright through contrast
Insatiable you, everyday starts anew
A love that is meant to last
Growing together, learning more and more
There is nothing we can't work through
A love that is meant to last
Insatiable you, everyday starts anew
Swimming through the timeless currents of bliss
Our souls unite, no impasse
Insatiable you, everyday starts anew
A love that is meant to last
Time shared for eternity, we are meant to be
Even in anger nothing is ever taboo
A love that is meant to last
Insatiable you, everyday starts anew
Conversations stimulte a mental vacation
A lasting impression sending me into climax
Insatiable you, everyday starts anew
A love that is meant to last
Thirty years from now old and grey, we remain
and never bid adieu
A love that is meant to last
Insatiable you, everyday starts anew

July 13 Heart for God Bible Meditations Based on Proverbs 1-3
Key Verse – Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
HEART THAT FEARS THE LORD REVERENTIALLY AND WISELY
Our heart fears the Lord reverentially and wisely by His presence
With His salvation’s assurance along His forgiveness’ license
From condemnation’s fatal incense against wickedness’ destructive sense
Toward rejuvenating revival to serve through His divine iridescence.
Our heart fears the Lord reverentially and wisely by His compassion
With His love’s direction along His Word’s instruction and vision
From hatred’s bitter reaction against apathy’s cold intrusion
Toward persevering devotion to prioritize His great commission.
Our heart fears the Lord reverentially and wisely by His kindness
With His care’s cheerfulness along His comfort’s gentleness
From rudeness’ conceited indifference against unconcern’s critical madness
Toward transforming goodness to show His marvelous graciousness.
Our heart fears the Lord reverentially and wisely by His commitment
With His call’s appointment along His charges’ reinforcement
From idleness’ empty achievement against slothfulness’ vain accomplishment
Toward strengthening diligence to work through His empowerment.
Our heart fears the Lord reverentially and wisely by His mercy
With His help’s restoration along His pardon’s clemency
From failure's perilous result against offenses’ grievous deficiency
Toward assisting dependence to trust His sufficiency.
Our heart fears the Lord reverentially and wisely by His light
With His Scriptures’ guidance along His truth’s might
From darkness’ fearful night against hell’s torturous sight
Toward illumining wisdom to shine with His delight.
Our heart fears the Lord reverentially and wisely by His zeal
With His truth’s steadfastness along His doctrines’ seal
From unbelief’s skeptical sense against doubtfulness’ deal
Toward teaching mentorship to discipleship and servanthood, Biblically real.

This poem is in memory of a sweet, elderly lady who passed away recently. As I was there when she died, I've needed time to work through the emotions. As much as death is part of life, it's still an adjustment for those of us left behind.
Rest in peace, P. May we honour your life through acts of goodness and grace. You are missed by all who knew you.
The white roses were there
By Michelle Morris
10/10/2025
The white roses were there
When you closed your blue eyes
For the very last time
The white roses were there
When your soul took flight
And you went home to heaven
The white roses were there
When we said goodbye
To your body lying still and peaceful
The white roses were there
When we cried and shared our grief
The shock still lingering despite reality
The white roses were there
When they came to take you away
With quiet dignity and reverence
The white roses were there
When we drew the curtains
And turned off the lights
The white roses were there
When we closed the door
And tried to go about our lives
The white roses were there
When we couldn't sleep at night
And held memories close in the moonlight
The white roses were there
When we drew back the curtains
And let the sunlight in
The white roses were there
When we opened the windows
And let fresh air breathe life into the house again
The white roses were there
Every day, every hour, every minute
And now they are gone
They're with you up in heaven
There in the peace and magic
Of hope and faith and love

Competing against windy air
Doing its best to stay in flight
Wondered why it would even dare
As it wrestled with all its might
Pretty bird that was very small
A newborn of very few days
Yet the small, feathered one gave all
To make it through the turbulent maze
It perched on the lamp by my door
Worn from fighting with gravity
Thought, would my guest stay or just soar
To prove profound tenacity
My weathered friend with spirits high
Left the haven by my back door
Found its way back into the sky
Braver and stronger than before
Mother Nature’s lesson is true
The moment we become alive
Until life ends and our work through
One must persevere to survive
An estranged couple teetering on the precipice
of splitsville are holed up on the fourth floor
of nowhere, their apartment. They're seeking refuge
from the covid-19 pandemic. Both decided to
quarantine together in hopes of salvaging
the crumbling state of their union. It was a bad idea,
a colossal mistake. Their attempt at reconciliation,
a total failure. Their toxic relationship almost as
as insidious as the deadly virus itself! Trapped
on the fourth floor of nowhere; sometimes they
seem like prison inmates tethered to each other.
All they wanted was to work through their issues,
but they've made matters infinitely worse.
Incessant fighting ensues. Murphy's law unravel
before their eyes. It's a glorious mess!
an estranged couple
covid-19 quarantine...

January 28 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Exodus 31-32
Key Verse – Exodus 31:3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship.
PRAISE BE TO GOD WHO FILLS US WITH HIS SPIRIT
Praise be to God for filling us with His Spirit so we can:
Acknowledge His ways according to His precepts
Abide by His wisdom along His purpose
Accomplish His will by His plan
Assert His Word amidst prayer
Achieve in His work through His power
Apply His winning principles
Appreciate His worth so precious
Exodus 31:13 Praise be to the Lord for sanctifying us
while granting us:
Heavenly wisdom
Holy understanding
Helpful knowledge
Healthy workmanship
Exodus 32:11 Praise be to the Saviour Whom we beseech with:
Humility in confessing our sins
as stiff-necked stubborn children
Honour in exalting His name
of greatness and omnipotence
Honesty in devoting ourselves
for His service. Amen!

If you look out into space,
pictures on the internet
taken from the Hubble telescope
you can see a nebula
a great big cloud of gas and dust
the birthplace of new baby suns
most of the gas is hydrogen
the gas that makes the ozone layer
hydrogen links together to build ozone,
so hydrogen is attracted to hydrogen,
yet I wonder is there a small attraction left over
after the atom's link, is there a small slight attraction
Is this slight attraction, the force that we call gravity
atoms are attracted to atoms,
oxygen links with hydrogen to form water
perhaps, matter attracted to matter
When suns that are born
they start out composed of mainly Hydrogen gas and dust
then having exploded into an atomic reaction
because of the growing force of gravity
they start changing overtime
condensing slowly changing from hydrogen
they turn into helium the next atom
in the periodic table
as time goes by they slowly work through
the periodic table until if they are big enough
they turn into a lead, then they explode
going supernova, creating dust that goes on
to make planets, meteorites and the earth
our moon came from a collision with the earth
our moon was once apart of the earth
and broke away after the collision to become a satellite
The core of the earth is hot, perhaps because gravity,
matter attracted to matter
the force of compounding atoms, creates an atomic reaction
the outside shell is created because
The coldness of space cools the atoms down
creating a shell a crust around the out side of the earth
the perfect nest for nurturing life
Hydrogen appears to be the foundation of existence
I'm not sure where hydrogen comes from
perhaps the big bang theory is true
but with that much gravity
the matter would be pure energy so no boulders
just an explosion of pure energy
that cools down and starts forming atoms
on becoming the smallest atom hydrogen
would go on to form nebula clouds, suns and planets
