Sin my life is so filled
the beginnings to end
Just waiting on being restored somehow
I've been repentant now I've been forgiven WOW!

The gallows were offered,
guillotine chosen

Executioner a matter
of choice

The sinner repentant,
evil now lessened

Death calls
—in a welcoming voice

Where do all the lost and last thoughts go?
No time lost in the space between
The dismay of humanity
The brave and cowards final moments
The guilty and the repentant
for all is gone
The memories of us all....

For MY NON CHRISTIAN FAMILY, RSA:


S source of life, water, rain, cooler weather
I   I'm recovering from sin, my lineage
N No true healing without repenting; like rain in 
     Eastern Cape, Jesus's blood washes again and again. First in cleansing, then empowering...

Taken from the world, thrown into the void.
Gasping for air. The bitter sweet release.
A formidable foe. Gnawing at the bone.
Calm, cool and collected. Reverse back into it.
Back where it’s not wanted, relinquish.
Repentant for past wrongs.
Finally able to do something right....

your words are beautiful
cuz i don't speak your language
your point is vacant i am 
repentant & you are 
satisfied. you have no right
to slide to drip blots on the 
night, blurring day & dream.
when i awake it would seem 
i would take a breath & sing
but i don't speak your language....

May the beneficent and infinitely omnipotent
Name of Jesus Christ the Son of God
Eternally impute blessings lofty and  abundant
Upon the blessed memory and legacy so bold,
Of my beloved dad, revered and eminent,
Reverend Samson  Singi who when seventy years old
Was called to be with his Master still humble and repentant!...

Floating on a repentant leaf.
Circling in flotsam fairy pond.
Drizzling leaves whirligig in dark.
Wayward wings beg woods to respond.
Tiny tears flooding maple boat.
The sentinel owl nods his head
as hearts resound with golden wings
whisking away prodigal’s dread.

I
A few weeks ago, he gave a message
I barely contained tears, repentant heart
Yes, I was in church, and he's an elder
Refuses the title of pastor. Deserves it ever
My wife and I can talk, fellowship, listen
To a man - divorced 20 years - pure
As far as this world goes, purer still
In studying, glorying in God's known will...

Like a pair of loving birds, looking for a nest.
We put ourselves in his hands and let God do the rest.

Divinity upon us, where we are humble and secure..
Repentant sinners and believers, we are free of fear.

Sweet is the savory spirit, full of love galore.
Gone is the flesh and the shadow of death.
Our souls now free to soar....

The Faithful Priest

The many colored robes he wore
Gave priestly rank and set him apart;
His faded socks, best of his poor store,
They drew him to a repentant heart.

He was a forerunner of the Saviour,
They couldn't comprehend his behaviour,
He dwelt in the woods,
The prophecy stirred his moods.

He ate locusts and honey,
People thought it funny,
His vision wasn’t in their range,
They saw him strange.

He baptized the repentant by the River Jordan,
He saw the glory higher than,
He was arrested,
His faith was tested....

With living water,
You quench my thirst.
By still waters,
You lead my soul.

On my knees,
I ask you, Lord,
to open my eyes, 
to open my heart.

Like a lily
of the valley,
I am reborn
in repentant tears.

My soul sings
your grace is enough.
You guide my steps
in unfailing light.

R egret, as it fills my eyes,
E ndless, are my laments and cries,
P iercing my skin, forming holes of remorse,
E xtraordinary pain; a huge bulge of force,
N othingness, for void surrounds me,
T errifying breaths echoing around me,
A byss, in which everything fades,
N othing but irrational decisions are made…
T angible guilt,   in which it drenches all my senses....

Confetti dreams floating away
An innocence again is crushed
Under the weight of the fall 
Countdowns to unconsciousness
Filled in flutes of sorrow
As the masses mimic cheer

Confessions secretly stored
Under wraps of indesgression
Carried out the door
Self inflicted suffrage
Abandons another war

Anxious the path's unearthed 
Repentant intemperance subverts...

Silent thoughts,
Dwelling in untamed dreams.
Winds of change howling,
In the depths of human-beings.
Whispers of souls repentant and sins forgiven

But of heaven's blessings they cannot utter.
Throughout the world that is ruins, they now discover
That the ruin in their hearts has got bigger
For that is life and what may shall come
For that is what is, carry on your faults undone...

I look for a way to salvation; 
I tried to crush the heart's sins,
Between the teeth. 
Sins are like pebbles! Harsh and sharp
How I couldn't feel in such sins
In my heart? 

Repentant of my sins, 
I put the name of God on my lips.
In that moment---
I was wrapping the sins,
Like a rounded pebbles, 
And tossed them into the air. 

God implanted the light in my soul
Amid whirlpools darkness.

I've been delivering to live again....

Two thieves were hanging
Next to the Christ
One on his left
One on his right

One was ungrateful
For his lot in life
The other repentant
Remember me in paradise

They each had that moment 
To open their hearts
One thought it best
The other thought not

One thief was saved
The other one lost
One knew the price
Counting the cost

Knowing it's never too late
To invite Jesus in
Just do it before the day
You've reached the end...

Shall I do penance for my hasty words,
or poise myself on this quaint narrow quay
to smell the salty perfume of the sea,
on platinum ship sail so far away?

I quiver with trepidation and dread.
Forgive my horrid rashly spoken speech
before I venture this stormy voyage.
Assuage my repentant heart I beseech.

Alas I am in sad, sad quandary.
I pray you hear my true profound remorse,
accept my ardent amends and redress,
before I embark on this lonely course....

Lord,
                                      We wait
                                     Repentant
                                  With pious hope,
                            Through our darkest days
                              We hold fast our sight,
                            Blinded not by corruption
                               Of a decayed society
                           Festering in malignant evil,
                    Hopeful our redeemer waits in the wings...
