My light won’t shine

Tired of this feeling
And feeling this way
My joy, it is killing
Yet, I have to stay 

It isn’t the norm
Of this, I am sure
My imperfect storm
No sun here to cure

Adrift on this boat
Lifeline and vessel
I don’t sink, but float
Internal wrestle

The sun is a myth 
Fantastic being
A true biased gift
For those believing

In what , who knows
It’s not

lost to the shine

in this ego driven world
 we hold our trophy's up high
  [a measure of imaginary success in life]
      a life ruled by greed and lust
       lost to nature-and to time

Premium MemberNina's Shine

Nina walks,
Nina talks,
Nina gives,
Nina lives,
Nina Shines,
And time stands still,
And I stare upon her transfigured face,
Full of lace and grace,
And beauty and space,
Easy on the eyes and sweet to the taste,
Nina walks,
Nina talks, 
Nina gives, 
Nina Shines,
And time stands still,
And I stare upon her transfigured face,
And I feel God's grace,
Tears begin to form in my eyes,
From

(Playful girl in Western Tibet)

Humanity’s Shine

There are lots of things that distinguish humanity;
Speech, intelligence, civilization, kindness
Etc. etc., blah, blah, blah…

But the real thing that makes us special
In particular makes each of us as individuals special 
Is humor.

Yep, simply that.
People are funny, really funny, 
And they also appreciate humor in others.

And THAT is what makes us

Premium MemberLook How They Shine

Look at the stars how they shine for you and I 
better learn to appreciate them before we die !
See the banquet of beauty God has created 
feast your eyes on it and you will feel elated;

Dappled in light heaven is our Sacred Window 
absorb its secret as if you were a  leaning willow

Premium MemberWhile Summer Shall Shine On Your Soul

Come, now while summer shall shine on your soul,
Leave off the darkness, the doubt and the fear;
Come, now the Earth’s with divinity full,
Leave off the wretched, and cling to the dear;
Come, now forgive, and thus make yourself whole.

Premium MemberIf I was never meant to shine


If I was never meant to shine like stars,
But walk through dark with dust stuck to my shoes,
Then please forgive me, God, for all my scars,
For finding hope in pain I didn’t choose.

My voice was small, too soft for most to hear,
A quiet sound that faded in the night.
But still I spoke, though no one

Premium MemberFrom Shadow to Shine

Skills were suppressed
while others took flight
a way of life put to rest
another came to bear

Scratched in moonlight
held on for a wild ride
spread across reality
like ash in shifting wind

Generational shifts
pathways dimly lit
leading toward
a white hot light

From solitude to fortitude
no picnic but a buffet
of trials and triumphs
I’ve stood on stages unrefined
buffed and polished by time
until life and

Premium MemberYou Have No Clue 2

Before your clocks, before your name/
Before dust whispered into bone/
There was light-I was flame/
Crowned in brilliance, alone/
Not fallen. Not damned. Just other/
Too bright for Heaven's fragile sky/
They called it pride, not knowing the shudder/
Of a God who dared to cry/
They shaped me from the holiness' edge/
But chained my glow in fear/
I rose beyond their sacred

My God Is Glowing

My God is ever glowing
Like the shadows in my mind
My God is glowing a thousand suns
A thousand times
Far across the hills and valleys
God cried the glory of His Son
I'll never forget the love You've shown
We all were loved by Your dear Son
Never underestimate the power of God
He'll keep us all in line
He loves us yes
