Blind Conviction

When a child looks you in the face, 
and says "please don't cry, 
It'll all be alright."
And he believes it, 
Even if he cant tell you how or why.

Strong Winds

“Cowardice often hides behind 
   intelligence

“Until the strong winds of conviction 
   —blow it away.”

Confessions of a Teacher-Poet Number 4

I confess I was surprised to make POTD
That may have been at the start
Of this year, rhymes with PLENTY, 20202
No poem, 'twas, encountering abortion, guilty heart

there is of course no harm in this per say
wherefrom arises the creative urge of soul
compelling it to act this way, day after day

Everything comes
From an infinite source of

Let it burn with glory, wisdom, and grace
And let it be thy light with conviction, courage
As life unveils gradually the wonderful storage

Dissent:

a choice without voice
in mental friction
to quell warlord spells
with true conviction
that lies shall disguise
our benediction
as force changes course
towards interdiction.

In the Temple

The proper way of serving the Lord 
is done by the true God's children. 
This is the conviction shown 
by the whole family 
led by the father 
in worshipping 
the Maker 
of man's 
life.

Our Conviction Trinity Sunday

Our Conviction Trinity Sunday

From God, we are given a commission,
We always receive with apprehension;
Do go His way,
Night and day;
His plans must be part of our conviction.

Underworld

I felt her Gothic breath 
It's warmth breathing
Upon my body; her touch
Igniting these senses..
In flames her lips tracing 
Burning kisses this conviction
Of my want; black velvet blue skies.

Underworld

I felt her Gothic breath 
It's warmth breathing
Upon my body; her touch
Igniting these senses...

Burning kisses this conviction
Of my want ? Black velvet blue skies.

Daily Death

Written by: Ali Taha Alnobani


When you bury your conviction in a deep grave

Something will take you to a new wave

Death is not only the end of body

It is a daily event: strong and brave
Form: Verse

Under Oath

Death awaits me on the corner
so be quick
with your
condemnation
and I shall consider
tomorrow’s charges
tangled
with today’s
conviction
and claim
my part
of
just accusation
and
no
more.

Infirm Conviction

There are many things that are trying 
to divert each one's attention 
that might endanger his life. 
There are times when study 
and work never help 
but hinder him 
from serving 
the Lord 
God.
