Oh daffodil of my life
Alone in my orchard with delight
Untainted like offspring of heaven
If ever that be. Like shining Helen
Grafted throu' Cupid's bow to Paris' soul
You sleep in my heart never waking to 
cock crow....

Live lovely lines
Frame feelings fine


Wise wit words whole
Stretch simple soul


Touch toilsome taste
Worry works waste


Be blessing bold
Glimpse grafted gold


Lift lofty looks
Bright brilliance book

Two becoming one.

with hearts of purity

Grafted together.

With your stem of Beauty

Together producing new buds

Deeply rooted

Intertwining with Love

Thorny days with rain

Sadness when petals fall

Yet, the sun will always shine

As our love grows together

Entwined forever....

The quiet cool of morn invites
A time of meditation
Thank God for His love_creation
Thanks for earth; His Scion  

Scion can mean grafted as one grafts into an apple tree,
a grapevine or rose..

Those who have accepted Jesus as their Savior
are Scions..They have been grafted into the
family of God.....

Broken stem of a flower
Grafted in the rain shower 
Placid Frozen desired passion
Roots of grounded lasses
 Everlasting stand before the sun 
Petals a blooms before The Shining of the Sun 
Dawns the Moon
Cascade fully blossomed blue realignment in June

I had thought no God could hold me
the way your hands do.


I feared the image I was created in

But if you were carved from the same stone
that made me,
if the same hands that grafted my heart 
designed yours,

then maybe he did once hold me sweetly, 
kiss my face,
and bless me that I can be more than my anger.

I feared the image I was created in,
until I saw it created you.

Morale-Boosting Award 
Moves an artist forward,
Farewell to The Backward,
His perception as ‘Ward’
A new image of ‘Lord’
Nice creations onward… 

Fear-Checking Award 
Is a commanded reward,
Expecting it a horde 
Like a protective sword…

A spirit is lifted, 
Its owner proved gifted,
Future efforts trusted;
More jobs self-entrusted…

For Fame name drafted:
A New Stem is grafted....

HE"S TURNING BACK THE CAPTIVITY.
OF ISREIAL, JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE.
HE"S OPENING OUR BLINDED EYES.
THAT WE CAN SEE.
OUR MESSIAH,OUR RISSEN KING.

OH MESSIAH.
OH MESSIAH.
OH MESSIAH.
OH MESSIAH.

I KNOW THAT YOU"VE BEEN GRAFTED IN.
ALL THE GLORY GOES TO HIM.
BUT HE HAS NOT FORGOTEN HIS FIRST LOVE.
HE"S OPENING OUR BLINDED EYES.
THAT WE CAN TRULY SEE.
THE NAIL SCARED HANDS OF JESUS.
OUR MESSIAH  AND KING....

Today, the weather seems composed and swifts have a reason to drift
Leaves have fallen from yesterday's rains but brought less disgust
There is a green slowly clothing the earth,
A hive of sweet-minty little thoughts and a reason for what to write...
Love and life are buds grafted from the same bark
Your love is but a mango tree that flowers twice a year
Thank you for stepping into my eyes
I love you Luche.

Come one, come all
To hear the family call
We count every head
Reminiscing about our dead

Play our games
With important names
Casting out the slain
Who wants only gain

We decorate our leaders
Wealthy little feeders
Our birds have open mouths
Right under their spouts

Pestilence are fixtures
In a poor man's mixture
Orderly houses crafted
For God's only grafted
...saints

I met a collage
hair, a messed-up colored sisal 
lips, pasted with red droppings
eyes, grafted lemurs’ spectacles
neck, ring-fenced with cowries
fingers, sharp porcupine quills
legs, wrapped with bull’s colon
feet, balancing on goat hooves
ears, crying “have mercy, you wheels”
clothes,  mosaic of bush flowers
confused I was when met her
but I was told the collage I met
was not art piece of an artist
but a  modern African girl...

The weight of my sin
    caused His suffering and shame.
God's wrath against me
    caused His Lamb to be slain.
I was forgiven when God
    caused Christ's pain.
I was one reason 
    Christ Jesus came.

To deliver me,set me free
    and pay for all my sin.
Provide for me a family tree
    where by i'm grafted in.
It matters not what I have done
    nor matters where I've been.
Christ thought of me on Calvary,
    and He'd do it all again....

A wife in each tent
My hearth a tenement
Fecund grove lofty sentiment
Cultivating each manicured accoutrement
Family tree planted in oasis of wine
Fertile sprouts a fruitful sign
Pristine shoots pure genetic thread to enshrine  
Concubines to further seed family line
Pods proliferating in an ocean of brine
Hybrid progeny status will assign
Grafted branches of patriarchal vine
Strong arm, domesticated wings to align    
Sinewy twine to encumber free-flowing bine...

THE MEEK

wild horses trained for service
ridden until their will is broken
compliant complete and grafted

Jesus said the meek are blessed
implying humility and gentleness
submission untamed or identified
God-willed rule denied incomplete

where are we on meekness scales
God not implying timid and weak
but humble compliant and broken
eternal peace He promised the meek


“The meek will inherit the land and enjoy great peace”—Psalm 37:11
