Premium Member Badside Manner

Xavier, my family doctor, was blunt, 
He told me my days were numbered, upfront. 
I thought “what a creep”!
Then died in my sleep - 
My heart declined to bear the bilious brunt.

Premium Member Collecting All Manner of Things

Collecting all manner of things,
From battered old derbies to rings,
He still couldn’t find,
It stayed on his mind,
A three-legged scarecrow that sings.

Premium Member Giving an assignment from God- tribute to prophet tb Joshua

What you give attracts people
The way and manner you give it attracts God

Therefore give in humility and love 
Giving is not an occasion to show off

Rather it is calls for remorse and brokenness 
If you cannot  give from the little in your hand

Giving big  when you are rich may never happen 
Giving is a sacrifice only
When you give what you cherish

When you give with all your heart 
Someone will be waiting to give you

Giving with expectation in mind  is giving wrongly
Cause giving is an assignment from God

And you cannot afford to fail God
It is much blessed to give

Than to receive says the Holy Book 
The secret of blessing is in giving

Those who are to receive must learn how to give
Giving helps us reshape our destiny 

Love expresses itself in giving 
True giving is giving without  expectation

Whisper Manner

Selling Off Your Reading Glasses

If you stopped attending paid classes
Would you sell off your reading glasses:
Gladly, speedily drop out if school, 
When every scholar is thought a fool?

Are you the type, who would rather bend
To an existing insisting trend:
Hang your helpful business-like manner,
Because you have changed your shop's banner?

Then, you will have become Igneous Rock,
Whose hardness one should fearlessly mock...
From the Good Sages we venerate
"Whatever is odd incinerate"

Only the right trends may control one:
When the wrong ones do, you have not won.

Premium Member What Manner of Man Is This

What manner of man is this, they asked,
Whom even the winds obey?
He speaks and calms the angry seas,
Yet He's humbler far than they.

To hear Him speak come thousands,
This man so meek and mild,
And yet throughout His busy life,
He still had time for a child.

They come to Him from miles around,
The sick, the lame, the blind,
And in one day He makes them whole,
Not even a scar could they find.

You've lived and supped with Me, He said,
Together we have slept;
And lo in spite of all I've done,
You don't know Me yet.

Premium Member The Manner of Making a Good Confession

On entering the confessional we should kneel, make the sign of the Cross and say to the priest, Bless me Father; then add I confess to Almighty God and to you Father, that I have sinned

The first things we should tell the priest in the Confession are the time of your last confession, and whether he said the penance and went to Holy Communion

After telling the time of our last Confession and Communion we should confess all the mortal sins we have committed, and all the venial sins we may wish to mention

When the confessor asks us questions we must answer them truthfully and clearly

After telling our sins we should listen with attention to the advice which the confessor may think proper to give

We should end confession by saying I also accuse myself of all the sins of my past life, telling if we choose one or several of our past sins

While the priest is giving us absolution we should from our heart renew the act of contrition

No Manner of -Ites

I am praying for the day, 
When all walls will fall away, 
And we as sons and daughters, 
Will all truly obey. 
 
The commandment to love one another, 
Is the great and first commission. 
To love God with all our hearts, 
Might, mind and strength, our mission. 
 
This is the celestial law abiding, 
With no lies or self-deceit in the way. 
There must be no inner hiding, 
And for all this we must pray. 
 
We all require our one true King.
Only He can sustain and set free, 
But to be in his kingdom, 
Each one must be at peace.  

In this we must have no borders, 
No place we cannot go, 
For a King to reign in heaven, 
There must be every room to grow.  

There will be no manner of -ites, 
No one will be excluded from their rights. 
Each one loved as all are one, 
Every moment blessed with pure divine.  

Here in these last days, this is our destination, 
For as Christ is to come, we are to receive Him. 
No one will abide the day, unless we are all together, 
In one body, one faith, under one head, forever.

Mirthful Manner

They sit very close 
together on the brown bench 
beneath the branches.

Explaining To a Child In a Manner Or Terms They Can Understand

Sorry kid's

But unfortunately sadly 
Christmas won't be the
same this year as the one's
you are used to 

Because you know how you
see people wearning masks
now

Well Santa and his Reindeer
have also caught Covid-19 
and got sick

And the reindeer can't fly in
masks so he won't be able to 
deliver any presents this year

But he told me to tell you just
how very disappointed and sorry
he is 

And he also knows how good you
have been and he promises he
will make it up to you next year

Mind Your Manner

Mind your manner against your stride
Mind your manner when u hide
Mind your manner while you breathe in deep
Step out into the moment that causes u grief
Mind your rhythm when the wind is on your back
Mind the motion as your actions lack
Mind your manner when later your actions you'll reap,
Step out and mind the manner you carry across your own personal time
I cross without listening I glide without thought, I move in absence mind over not,
Mind without manner seems to be of today
So tomorrow I remember begin bright and full lime the sun's first ray. 
Shine bright shine true look forward look neew. Mind over matter lives long and true.

Impressive Manner

M-anner so impressive 
H-as tended to make a mark; 
A-s it has the power to excite, 
R-esulting to a sublime spark. 

I-mpressive manner 
S-ees the eyes' attention; 
I-nteresting way or style 
D-enies not the admiration. 
R-emain moving and poignant, as you touch the beholder; 
O-n the fourteenth of March, show your impressive manner.

Aboveboard Manner

A-n aboveboard manner
L-ets you keep from deceit; 
E-arly Tuesday February thirteenth, 
X-factor is God's word you eat.

B-ehold an aboveboard manner, 
A-s it's free from trace of lies; 
S-ee the truth of noble deed
A-iming to please the Father's eyes.
N-ever do an irresponsible act that will make your faith waver; 
G-et your life in best shape and in aboveboard manner.
