So enticing and

Where you my master,

Unstained.
An exploration is in

To know that in spite of all my stumbling
My clumsy phrasing and other bumbling
So many of you have congratulated me on POTD
And that's truly humbling in a most special way

The first sight
of the first white hair
in my nostril,
at first jolting,
after a while, softly sobering,
happily humbling!

I ain’t no phoney
Just full of bologna (E)
Doing the fifth step
Will keep me Kept
Doing inventory
Kinda like a story
Humbling myself
Feels like nothing else
Asking for help
So I can play the cards Dealt

Life,
Love,
Freedom,
Multiply,
Deep contemplation,
Encompasses understanding,
Awakens the inner man, humbling his venturing,
A pathway, unhesitatingly travelled, to achieve personal goal's fulfilment.

For if I wash your feel, I'm humbling myself
But if I kiss your feet tell me what is that
For when I walk away from you
I leave with you the truth
I love you for I chose this

Winter casts it's frozen bloom
Humbling to a floret spring
A warm summers moon listens
as the evening birds sing
With a palette of chromatic groom
Fall paints it's earthly shades,
As winter awaits this array
Of colorful fade

Spinster listen;
Do not tell others,
You are spinster,
Tell them this secret,
“I am a Spin-star
A shooting- star
A wonder-star
A humbling- star
A gaming-star
A tempting-star
A smiling-star
A crowning-star
A caring-star
A home-star"

A Profound Predator
Predicated then produced and perfected a profound predator,
Who of a naughty, neurotic newspaper was a unique editor;
We were quaking;
Identity mistaken;
Turned out to be a humbling, bumbling, cute and cuddly creditor.

Tears
staining my smile
grin even.
Blinking endlessly
bird's eye view
with water as my telescope
I stare
words....humbling my soul
"try a new way my dear"
I'll consider
Thank you...a day that I'll treasure.
(sniff)...'they like me, they really like me.'

May I wash your feet
Worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb
your foot is so placed in my hand
humbling myself for
Worthy is the lamb
this is so confessed
That I serve...Worthy is the Lamb

we shouldn't
dread failure;
it's not death.
though humbling;
stings a tad,
it teaches
great lesson;
we learn zilch
from success.

The internet has replaced doctors
We look up our symptoms and
order prescriptions online.
choosing to doctor ourself.
How will the doctors make a living?
How will they pay their exorbitant
insurance?
Will they have to start working
at Taco Bell like the rest of us?
A humbling thought.

The image smiling back at me
When the mirror makes me to see
Is someone I don't recognize
Who is that with those baggy eyes?
How could I have changed into this dreadful biddy?

He sends me to bases that have stunned many faces, including that of mine.I feel the dream catchers power running through my spine, incresing my faith, to run to next base without stumbling, very humbling.As I strive to reach home base, keeping my vision on the Dream Catchers Mitt.

I Am Standing There Staring Back At Me
As My Skin Starts Crumbling
Simply Dust Nothing More
This Time Worse Than Before
Waiting On Someone To See
I Found The Silence Humbling
Escaping The Hole That I Dug
Casually Swept Under The Rug
When They Ask What Went Wrong
Just Smile And Say She Never Did Belong

glistening, gently tumbling
washing hearts pure, humbling
resounding lights, mumbling
glitter alive, flakes fumbling
snow glowing bright, as I’m stumbling
through the wonderful, grumbling
so each flake sails, escapes – bumbling
glistening, gently tumbling…
on the edge of the winter’s rumbling

Joe DeMino has biblical insight that is Holy Spirit instructed. I am impressed, intrigued, and encouraged by our Elder in the USA and here on Poetry Soup (PS).
I quote Jesus, from Matthew's Gospel (Matthew 23:12, also Luke 14:11)
"For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."

Unlike competition's ring of self exalt
in humbling grace I near you, not assault
my own faith's nearing, not confuse or fault
that love in righteous ebbing hails result.
And only Godly urging's calming school
resides in my apprenticeship as tool
does let endeavor, love, so give me rule
from toneless hurt's resolve of pathing fool!

Not at all nice:
In one's hair lice
In one’s room mice
Weevils in one’s rice
In lieu of full cake, a slice
One’s highest post “vice”.
Permanent ear for advice.
A bad throw of Life’s Dice,
Quick to itself half disguise,
Already on one fixing a price:
To The Rest, Worth Thrice
A Stroke of humbling bad luck
An Eagle makes A Duck!

Blissful scenes of green all around
The Sahyadri mountain stood like a gigantic beast
Humbling the mortals before its feet
Bits of rain and a whole lot of sunshine
You were there shining like a diamond
The nature bowing to your divine presence
Your grace tripped all the senses
Me enamoured of you
You were a beauty amidst the gigantic beast
