Learning Waltzing Matilda, I instantly knew
Australia was the place for me
I'd live like a swagman with my pet kangaroo
and play under the shade of a Coolibah tree
It was Christmas there in the summer—Cool!
So, I'd greet Santa surfing into the bay
and kids never had to go to school
I'd just swim and play baseball all day!
What am I doing here at seven?
when lucky kids live in an Australian heaven?

Assured by the omnipotent Saviour
Secured toward eternal heaven flight
Insured for heavenly heritage gain
Cured from sin-cancer, my soul does delight.
Indeed braced upon love and grace of Christ
Freed* against fatally condemning guilt
Deed, grace-propped, my spirit fulfills by faith
Greed smiting while service through virtues built.
*John 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

Earth, today is your day,
Faith, in our heart we have,
Death for you is still unpredictable,
Beneath your soil is our bodies alcove
Foliage for you I wish forever,
Age for you is not limited,
Visage of our humanity is your dust,
Cottage of all creature is you the beloved.
Struggle is needed to save us now,
Michael and Dragon were fought in the old heaven,
Miracle we are expecting to survive for tomorrow
Invincible we have faced is the Covid- nineteen,
The old heaven and earth, All the past has passed away,
The Garden of Eden is you, since they caste out,
And the soul’s heaven is hidden by God
We will see it after we have taken by Mort.

Murder on the Orient Express--just?
Shorter the fuse tighten the screws,
sharper stuns the rushed, drug delays the hushed,
marker trashed refuse, clues confuse.
'Morning after sharpened scours the given,
charming entertains the witty,
earning their forthcoming thwarts admission,
forming and sorting out gritty.
Straightforward clues like manna from Heaven,
page foreword; Farmer's Almanac,
date onward, sow-reap, from whence transgression?
Came forward all, the common task.
Burdened heavily, labored the righteous,
incessantly drew in favor,
descendancy ends by the impious,
death penalty, all-signed ... waiver.
Adieu, Poirot

Devoured left behind faking his death his daughter reaches for him expecting his arrival unearthed endeavors it was all a fraud fake funeral service an abomination against the holy spirit haunting watching her purgatory waiting for her dad to cross over when someone fakes their death loved ones who has passed away actually awaits the arrival of a new loved one they actually leave heaven to help them cross over but when it's fake they get stuck on the other side and cannot return to heaven until that loved one crossing and if they are denied access to God's kingdom the loved one who risk everything to greet them remains stuck in thier purgatory this is thee unpardonable sin against the holy spirit

Epochal courses a tamed countryside,
Spectacle sparkles glowing trees and boughs,
Pedestal weights and measures counter slide,
Sensible enshrine flexible reigned bows.
A sentinel taps chords and ivories,
The typical lose blues and notes the muse,
The miracle resonates mute carries,
A mythical being awaits its dues.
As Bach spirited his classical piece,
Some brought heart and soul, yet their ears came first,
Has God Heaven sent his blesseth song sheets,
Glass box reveals harmonic sharp verses.
Gentle-deft barters simply and ables,
Treble Clef and all the rest, well arranged,
Level weft swaps light, keyboard, and pedals,
Special, left Bach's masterful skills remained,
