In troubled times, we turn towards prayer
as optimal means, to restore balance.
Thus we recognise God, as our saviour,
even if a desperate dalliance,
surrendering our rigid ego stance.
Contemplating on these lines, we conclude
lower mind impulses, merely delude.
Our detached presence, is free and unbound,
devoid of fears and desires, thus unglued,
as rapturous bliss, within heart resounds.

Fly
You can fly
Anything not apply
Than both wings to rely
Trying and Relying
To help out selves we were trying,
When on God should been relying;
While He waited,
Trouble created;
Devil disturbs so must be denying.
Jim Horn
On God Always Relying
On God surely I am always relying,
When writing poems will be trying,
And connect,
With subject;
Thoughts and efforts is magnifying.

off the top of my head
i begin to notice some
things
and some previous
times
and some abandoned
places
the odd mixture of dirt and snow
and how it appeals to the naked eye
and then
naked skin frightened by warm autumn nights
and then
autumn nights that can no longer stretch out
into my long suffering
winters
previous times where i could lay perpendicular to the sun
and it rises
tranquil
watching these diamonds and pearls glisten
abandonment glistened
hearing these treasures listen
and the universe listened,
while i stay here
ranting
on and on and on and on..
My whole world is in a state
Of relying on the fate
That the universe can hold
With the powers to control
When and how my love will be
Found and united with me
I hope its soon--its been too long
Wanting to hold someone strong
Sharing bad times and the good
Like every great couple should
I am pleading to you fate
Please don't stop or hesitate
To bring this new love my way
I've been waiting every day
Patiently I try and be
An angel so heavenly
But its getting really tough
Living without someone to love
If you grant me this one wish
And send me someone to kiss
I'll be happy and so grateful
I will never be too wasteful
With hugs, desire and passion
My world will be really "smashin"
Relying on Jesus
To show us the way
Charting our own Course
Will lead us astray
For He will walk with us
On Life’s rough rocky road
Rely on HIS Goodness
He’ll carry our load
Walking with Jesus
Such Mercy and Grace
Trust in Him only
Our sins He’ll erase!
He knows of our future
And just what we need
For He carries the Sparrow
And provides the seed
My Jesus, My Master ‘
My Lord and my King
Let all of my days
Your mercy I sing
For I have failed you
Yet you still provide
I pray now for strength
And your Love never hide
Oh Praising my Savior
My dearest friend
Thank you for loving me
and the peace within!
With the suggestion of the possibility that I might be with child,
I protect my stomach from all injury no matter how mild,
I think he suspects, of what I might be carrying inside,
Feeling unready he pokes and jabs with hidden smiles.
Acting as if i don't know his intent.
My arms cover the 'playful' blows,
But if I am with child, neither of us knows.
Aunt Flo didn't miss her visit,
That comes with every moon,
we always use protection,
That's a life long rule,
But somehow there always is a chance,
There is always a chance.
I'm cravings things sweet and sometimes salty,
my moods will swing, with barely any prompting,
Im getting naseus and the dizziness wont go,
The backaches are another thing that has to go,
Im losing all my appetite, and yet i can't wait to eat,
Im stressing and im wondering,
What it would be like to actually be a mommy.
I've been Aunt Jay for two years this past fall,
And now my sisters working on her second babe,
I wonder if her steps I'll follow.
I cradle my small tummy,
And wonder at the prospect,
Could i have a little angel,
That's relying on my conscious.
You will do it until it’s finished
You will carry out and bring it to completion
With unmatched power and incomprehensible ability
You will do it
You are not one who will let us down
And punish with unrewarded goals
Totally looking up to You Lord
Put our faith on You
Our heart trusts in You
To the goal that will be your doing
Your majestic hands
We will be relying on
