And is always there waiting to be asked
To navigate you towards that ever present help

To the I Am
Alone and on my knees
In a valley filled with death's air

My prison's narrow walls collapsed
I walked in green meadows
Seeing the sun

Within the Whispered Wind
Within the whispered wind, bumble bees
fly their syncopated figure eights.
Praying mantises fall to their knees
…within the whispered winds.
Rich blessings float from heavenly gates
and set kissing dragonflies at ease
before all worldly sorrow abates.
Sunday psalms sung softly in the breeze
settle where the flock congregates.
Hallowed ambience exudes heartsease
…within the whispered wind....

Improvising ExistenceImprov is an unscripted comedy form.
Starting with an idea for a sketch,
actors interact with each other,
making up things as they go.
As one person responds to another,
“No, but…” squashes spontaneity,
while “Yes, and…” builds the banter,
propelling witty action forward.
Quick and clever dialogue
promises even more to come.
Then, after finding an apt ending,
a brand-new sketch can begin.
Our lives are...

Dweller of our heart
“The essence in us is the same as the essence of the sun.” — Unseeking Seeker
••••••••••••••••••••••••
At the beginning—
before Satan lost his place in heaven,
Man had but one thought—only the good, pure one.
Our thoughts were like pearls shining in conscience’s trove,
beacons of hope, our unwavering guide.
Our hearts were like the sun—
they shed light on knowledge, and...

To the Waters, in FaithHe promises to care to the extreme,
If I'd drink from His never-drying stream—
That I need no coin to purchase or strive,
For He said I was made to glow and thrive.
As time slithers, wants litter front and rear,
And hope keeps fading with each passing year.
He says I need not labour hard for bread,
Yet my field yields...

Perennial winnerI am a perennial winner
Cause I refuse to be a loser
I am programmed for victory
And I vehemently refuse to walk by sight
Nor by what my circumstances look like
For what is seen is temporary
I refuse to allow my situation
To dictate the direction of my prayer or confession
For I can not...

To be an instrument of His Peace

STRENGTHENEDSTRENGTHENED
Today’s time tests the spirit, soul,
Mind, and the heart that beats
With the faith that fuels them;_
And like the body’s muscles,
They all grow firmer
With trial testing times:-
God forever renews our strength,
Remaining that ever present help
Needed in troubled testing times:
Never allowing his chosen ones,
To suffer and sojourn in vain:-

The MuezzinBefore light’s encroaching
Beams, across wavelengths
Of glints, in between yawning
Protocols of waking,
The cocks strike a redundant
Note.
Choked by their own sensitive
Yodelling spree, muted by
Spittle of outstretched, moaning
Clouds, frayed and piqued by
The lusts of flying machines,
Hours stretch on rubber’s speed.
The rain is a common spiv, holding
On the crests of soaking waves
Upon night’s purloined
Sleep.
On the roof, the rain pelts
With...

Annual HymnsSisters of the grey night,
Assemble on the chest of the hill.
The heavens enjoy seeing your wild gowns billow along
When the winds hiss with humble pride,
And when your restless lips murmur praises
To the Most High —
In elevated voices and strength.
Remember the summons and hasten
Towards the crest of the hill.
Curse the viper’s mouth and spit upon its...
