Short Lifesaving Poems

piercing the dense fog
lighthouse with lifesaving rays...
defys elements

new technologies
embraced by modern sailors...
old friend abandoned...

Victory Scar

That long line still shows.
Thirty years a part of me;
precancer they said.
Hysterectomy so young;
lifesaving victory scar.

Alone and floppy with nothing to wear
Silently, I left you there
But I wish I never had

The marks of lifesaving staining your skin
I couldn’t dress you one last time
But I wish that I had

I saw you again, just once more
In your birthday dress
That you were too young to wear

I left you there
In that cold white room, then in that small white box
But I wish I never had

A new wind blows from Korea to Tanzania,
     the same wind blew from Antioch to Berea
A fresh breeze grace the Peruvian air,
     that same fragrance wafted
through ancient Rome's main thoroughfare
Oh my Lord,
the sweet smell of the gospel is everywhere
In every generation, 
its wonderful aroma abides there
That lifesaving scent is heavenly to inhale;
breathe it in deeply,
it'll make your soul recover well...

None speaks louder then the Lord
Cast not your fears upon man
For he is the ruler of this world

I cannot put myself above him
I cannot rule this world
I cannot and do not have his power

Thus, He is the ruler of our world
Thus, He is the savor of this world
Thus, He is our God...

A flower rejects the chill of winter's icy constrain
to bathe in harmony with the heavenly spring rain

A princely frog on his lily pad chains
awaits his mate and descent of fertile spring rains

A sly fox trying to survive his hunger pains
cunningly awaits the lifesaving spring rain

A farmers precious crop would be sown in vain
without the arrival of blessed spring rain

When harsh winters leave us desolate and drained
we embrace in the bosom of the rejuvenating  spring rain...

From the deep depths of bleak and somber dreams
Those with grey roses living within them
There’s painful feelings made inside, it seems

The colors of the sky and the large farm
Beautiful the dream is all but the rose
They seem to be crying, having no charm

Here deep inside the dream the heart arose
Coming to rescue the broken rose bush
Like giving lifesaving drink from a hose

Now all roses turn colors are then lush
Perfect dream fantasies give a sure rush
