Raindrops In Monochrome

I watch the rain---
As the pitter-patter
Merges with the cacophony
Of everyday life,
And wonder..
Does the rain fall,
Or do we rise to meet it?

Every day growing older

Be Quiet

Take time out and
Be quiet, listen to 
Your inner self
Tune the noise of
Everyday life out and
Just listen to the voice
It will help you to 
Solve any problem

Jesus Is the Answer

If we walk by faith and not by sight
We will soon behold God's heavenly light
For God is the answer to our everyday life
For He loves us so, morning, noon and night.

Kids play barbies and kens.
Imagining grownup scenarios and inventing pretend realities.
Distorted interpretations of everyday life.

It All Comes From Within

It all comes from within 
You are the total sum
You have it all
Knowledge and wisdom 
Apply yourself to everyday life 
Take things one step at a time 
Continue to forge ahead 
Keep everything in line

Expect the sudden  
Pray for preparedness of heart 
For time has power

Pay out exact expenses
Do it first in your home

Is daunting to execute
Excellence requires not

Haiku Maxim for Everyday Life

Relax, seriously
Don’t waste your time in doing 
Things in a hurry 

If you’re being late
Because of heavy traffic
Think of those at your back

The best thing to do
When being late in filing
Is to act and pray

Premium Member Never Give Up Hope

I know there are times in life that really get us down,
But it’s times like this that show us who we really are.
Everyday life piles on and it feels like we’ll drown.
But worrying about these things won’t get you very far.

Predestination and Action

All the different doctrines and mantras must be related,
God selecting you for faith is the same thing as god helping you live your everyday life 
Is predestination not the child of divine intervention, which patronises individual responsibility?

In a Perfect World

In a perfect world,
Hell on Earth would be a literary term.
But in the real world, 
The phrase describes everyday life.

In a perfect world,
Hope wouldn’t exist; We wouldn’t need it.
But in the real world,
It’s the only thing that truly keeps us alive.

Haiku maxim for everyday life

HAIKU MAXIMS FOR EVERYDAY OFFICE AND FIELD WORKS

Clerical errors
Must be on the part of clerk
Unless you’re the boss 

Hastiness leads to
Unproductiveness of work
Thus, leads to disgrace

Never say “I can’t”
For doing it is your call
Thoughtless man says it

HAIKU MAXIMS FOR EVERYDAY TRANSACTIONS      

To deal with someone 
Don’t volunteer the problem
Let them ask for it

When you want to get
All the results in one time
Get the checklist once

Create enemies, but if 
Not, create friendships

HAIKU MAXIMS FOR EVERYDAY DEALING WITH YOUR BOSS

If you want to hear
Your boss decreases his voice
Quickly admit your fault

The sigh of your boss
Is a sign of frustration
Caused by your follies

Always treat your boss
As professional, and be
Not too familiar

I Thanked God Today

I thanked God today
Just because the sun
Was shinning and I was happy.

I thanked God today for
All the joy and beauty he
Adds to my everyday life.

I think from now on
I will thank God every day
And maybe, He will continue
To add blessings to my life
And I will be happy.

Since the Day You Died

Since the day you died
Life has been an emotional ride

The numbness starting to subside
So many tears my eyes have cried

Emotional pain becoming part of everyday life
Grief cutting through me like a knife

Wonder how much pain I can endure
Before I just can't take it anymore

Criers and Listeners Miracle Man 4/6/2023 Mercilessly, many are drowning, in the stress of everyday life. We cry out for help, but most ears are only attentive to crowd generated noise, and thus ignore the whispering, of a drowning, solitary voice.

Stumbling

Left stranded beside a dusty road
Meandering through earth & mire
Trying to find a place to rest my head
Helplessly I stumble 
Into thorns of cactus plants & wild roses
If I could lose myself, I would
Staring up amongst the stars
I find myself entangled
In everyday life bizarre's.

My Dog Ate My Homework

My dog ate my homework,
 the teacher heard before.
 But this time I’m telling the truth—
 I dropped it on the floor.

Right beside his dinner dish,
 before I could react,
 he chewed it up and swallowed it.
 I could not get it back.

Now my homework is gone.
 It’s literally no more!

Love breathes,on everyday life
...extinguishing anger's strife

Love awaits another's call
...lies patient in us all

Love creates a whispered word
...as romance's voice is heard

Love kisses emotion's tide
...hearts opening wide

Love ignites passion's fire
...releasing mutual desire
