No good deed,

Ever credited would be 

To 

Our heavenly account,

Unless

The signature of pure intention

It bears!

If,

From the amount of kindness

Of

Any given act of altruism performed, 

We subtract, 

All selfish motivations that may have prompted 

Someone to carry out that work of

Benevolence, 

Then

The remaining sum, is what is considered to be,

Kindness' sum of pure intention and only that is

Expected to be credited to one’s heavenly 

Account!

SEED IS THE NEED 

Introspectively, to give yourself is already credited. 
You'll be needed when you have what is needed. 
Simply assimilate the concept of being needed 
And you'll see that our lives has already been seeded. 
Sowing into others is where fulfilment is embedded
And in the moment of need, remember the seed
Cos that's the one and only means to succeed.

I am a tear:in tragedy's fear
I am the hope:when power cannot cope
I bring forth life: from the world's strife
I am the peace:that will never cease
I am the fire:in love's desire
I am the light: in blindness sight
I am the grace: in repentance face
I am  friend:  who but I
Sees the beginning from the end

This is my adaptation of the 6th century kyrielle form credited to the mythological Irish poet 
Amergin.I have accordingly labelled the form with his name....

Miraculous is how it seemed
That they escaped alive,
Those 12 boys and their coach,
Who many thought would not survive.

For 18 days they languished
In a cave beneath the ground
With raging waters rising near
The place where they were found.

The Navy Seals are credited
With rescuing the team,
Reversing parents’ nightmares
Into one amazing dream.

The world held its collective breath
While all this was transcending
And let out whoops of great relief
To hear the happy ending....
