Short Exhort Poems

You are the fire, 
In a thousand years 
I will not tire, 
loving you
 
Its you Exult:
you are born my Spirit to exhort
On you l will lay hold 
about your beauty being bold....

Tires protest loudly
Vision tunnels as night falls
White lines hypnotize
Strong coffee, deeper longings
Steel resolve, exhort homeward

Why
poetry exhort me

With care
know and learn
from neighbors

Write a poem
while listening and following
to their breathing

Walk together in the poem
like train travel:
same direction
same way
in different places

Watch your life
And show you....

HEAT WAVE (Tanka)

“gods    exhort the sun
punish the unbelievers”
and so it was done
the greeks believed in many
but we now pray to just one

“oh lord please spare us
frying eggs on the sidewalk
hasn’t been much fun
we know we hated winter
but summer is a bummer”...

Like gold of Havilah
   God is true and straight.
I can exhort Adonai
   For his tender heart.

Be it ambivalence
   Or the hour of drear
Wherever prayer is
   The Lord abides there.

Royalty and rivalry
   May erupt with hate
But He will take my leave
   Untouched by the flame....

Praising, Singing  
Hallelujah Hallelujah---

Hallelujah Hallelujah 
Highest praise I exhort
We exhort
Hallelujah Hallelujah 
I, no we all will sing
Praising, praising, singing  
Hallelujah Hallelujah

Hurl each word well,
Offer your best;
Wise words now dwell.
Wonder finds quest;
Offer your sure heart,
Note quest that thrills;
Dare then bold start,
Expand fond will;
Rise with calm mind.
Stretch sinews here;
Exhort clear finds,
Exploit warm cheer;
Keep a sure tact,
Stir worthy acts.

In every task.....
.....diligence is asked
          Is this my finest best?

For this pursuit.....
.....geared with faith’s utmost
          Would God be greatly pleased*?

*1Thessalonians 4:1 …We beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus… ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.

V-oice of the Almighty Father
I-s powerful and clear; 
V-icious lies are exposed, devil's deceit does disappear.

L-ord Almighty's voice
A-ims to exhort us to obey; 
P-ointing out His instruction, 
U-sing His laws night and day.
E-arly morn third of July, 
B-e wise in making a choice; 
L-ife and death are heard from
A-lmighty Father's voice....

To Exhort and Never Abort

Why should God's mission we want to abort
When He is the one who we should exhort
Come to Him with faith and in always believe
So as Savior can welcome as well as receive.

Message to me is loud, clean and complete
One day with God in heaven we will meet
Arrive in heaven and Him you will adore
From sin and grief are relieved for evermore.

How straight the path I could enforce,
and straight the thought I might have course,
or straight quantities faked remorse,
then straight the entrance without force!

Yet straight the buckling of divorce,
still straight the line between two ports,
or straight the railing on the porch
but straight the shot ~ I can't endorse!

The curve ~ contingencies exhort,
is semi laden with export,
go one, with nature's true report,
as life unerring stays the source!...
