The laborers toil and moil
Even in the rain!...

Raise a cheer for hands
For hardworking laborers
Hands that build our world....

Human is an animal farm
where all are equal in roles
the head is the think tank
stomach is the granary
eyes the tour guides
nose the chemist
mouth the sales manager
legs the errand boys
ears the intelligent officers
hands the manual laborers...

I''m doing the speed limit.
Pass me if you dare,
It's on purpose that I'm within it,
my itinerant confrere.
Reconsider your position.
Please stay off my back side,
I'm in the labor force too,
Let's be safe ; enjoy the ride.
The harvest is abundant 
the laborers are mighty few,
Stick around,
The Lord may still need you....

Lights dawning
Sleepyheads yawning
Babies crying
Mothers sighing

Coffee pouring
Busses roaring
Winds shifting
Debris drifting

Laborers hurrying
Rats scurrying
Teen-agers snoring
Alarm clocks ignoring

Stoplights blinking
Drivers unthinking
Airplanes arriving
Passengers surviving  

Tender hearts
Works of art
Lovers part 
A new day starts...

gods harvest workers the hungry cry out to you....
let reaping begin

children gather....their tears of hunger in the dust
waiting for full bowls

a band of famish circle their bellies....nursing infant's
mothers thirst 

o see the lord's laborers gather grapes and grain....
yes god is so good

eat the produce of the fields....read his word in 
bible nourished again

Rows neatly planted
Running east to west 

Then a field of wheat
Ready for harvest
Golden is the grain

All the plants look alike
Not a weed did I see
For miles one golden stand

Time for harvest_
Are we ready?
Gain needs gathering
Putting into the barns
Before the summer storm__

Where are the laborers?
Workers are so few_
None to drive the tractor
Could this farm employ you?...

Being Willing
Written: by Miracle Man
7-21-2023

God’s purpose for each is to go and do,
for HIS fields are white and laborers few.

God make us willing to share our belief. 
Using your word to bring others relief.

Make us engaged, not to just grace a pew,
so we’ll win lost souls before we’re through.


“The reward for work well done
is the opportunity to do more.”
Jonas Salk MD

When 
Amid
Warmest of outfits
I
Shiver in cold...
The urchin 
In meager rags
Bear foot;
The old lady -
Less of human and
More of a skeleton -
Walking in search for food;
The laborers 
Risking the chilly cold
Work to both the ends meet...
These are like
Alyssa or Aster
And winter orchids
Or
Arctic fox or bear or hare
Spiritually strong creature rare
Greater beings of Mother-Nature...

Autumns red dusk falls,
laborers leave their fields.
the day's last bell rings,
the hour comes 'round.
The cellar doors burst open,
the pantry doors unbolted,
the table is layed,
the gates of the hall swing wide.
The guests are met,
the feast is set.
Come join the feast,
join the banquet,
revel till the dark of night,
leave all your dread,
all your worries,
leave them outside the doors,
for tonight we live in a new world....

Neat rows of shocked grain in fields
Just sounds of sickle's blade sweep
Laborers walk swiftly in teams
Meooow~~cat's tail squeezed  

Meooow~~meoow cat's tail squeezed
As workers lift those bundles 
Tie the wheat into neat shocks
The setting sun slides

As that sun sets behind hills
Laborer and cat head home 
Warm hearth, warm meal, rocking chair
Meoooo~~cat's tail squeezed

The potter sows seed and is ready to reap a harvest. She begins work at twilight.
She plants, scatters seeds, and water the field. She smiles with delight because her chores are well-done.
The day is consumed with abundant labor; because the harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few.
She engages with her field and leaves nothing unfinished. She attends to it as a mother to a child. This passion is something that cannot be ignored; because she never knew a love like this before....

Angels in Heaven, holy and mighty,
God's messengers, they come so swiftly.
Work with Angels closely, burdens will lessen,
Co-laborers sent from His hand to assist.

Protecting us always, healing our souls,
Carrying out Heaven’s decrees, like a toll.
In many forms, shapes and sizes they come,
We have hope, for they never tire.

They don't care for our gossip or strife
But the joy breaks over one repented soul!
So look and you'll see, you have company
God and his Angels, joyfully!...
