The stronger he must become 
Down is the limit 
Strengthening a foe unplanned 
In peace we can all find rest...

Love is a meal
We must dine 
On her slowly
Giving her time
To digest and marinade
Blending unto the flesh
Strengthening and sobering
This hungry soul...

the love that conquers all
through any fall
breaking smashing through walls
feeling happiness as it grows tall
hoping to never fall
for a loving dove
our loving dream
keeps our desires strong
eternity is what i long...

Cultivate me.
Fill my empty spaces
and drench my parched soul - 
nurture the withered love-flower
strengthening and stretching
to warm in your sun.
I blossom -
you are the honeyed sap
flowing through fingertips
aching for just one touch....

Life reflects real , fake is deflected . Only real can hold steadfast in the spend of time . Only fake is shattered by the pressures of the world . The authentic last , never eroding but strengthening . Only the real respect real , fake merely hates or imitates ....

As your restless heart yearns for a war’s end
Dear friend, let these  arms hold you
While your son battles on.

I’ll  be around when tears riddle the nights
And calm all fears as we bond--
Strengthening hope, my pledge.

Like a needle and thread only when connected,
are capable of mending torn cloth,
isn't it the same with friends who care and listen.
The connectin capable of weaving stiching of,
forgiveness, understanding, and acceptance,
strengthening the fabric and mending tears,
in our inner cloth....

Staying with me as a great companion,
Never letting me feel alone,
Strengthening me in all situations,
Giving me free rides to the world of dreams,
Taking me back to my cherished memories,
Thoughts are closer to me than my shadow
And nothing shall separate them from me.

pliant
strands which curl, knot
coloring surface life
unifying

woven
strings, strung, bow tight
joining top to bottom
left side to right

threads light
threads bright or dark
holding, strengthening, strong
genetic strands

Lust is the chain that anchors us,
     forged of thick iron rings
          molded in white-hot flame.

The links tighten as they cool,
     closing the final gaps
          that separate us.

So here we are, willingly bound,
     enslaved first by fire then
         sealed forever by the strengthening cold....

Twirling, swirling, whirling
up Up into the sky,
natures vacuum cleaner 
sucking all to fly…
whilst eccentric, zany chasers 
shoot to stun the world,
others hide petrified 
from natures’ fury hurled.
Powerfully rotating and
strengthening her suction,
destroying all that’s in her path
leaving mass destruction....

Aftermath

Living through the deprivation
	of the silence and solitude
of former injuries afflicted, 
we come to a new conception of scars in battle, 
they serve a purpose, reminding us that 
we may have suffered from the wounding,
but their presence denotes a well fought fight,
and a strengthening of spirit.

The plops of fat drops on wet leaves
Light rippling applause of the rain
The strengthening breeze in the trees 
Like the rush of an oncoming train

Consuming fire
Bitter ire
Eating away at me,
Turning me into ash.
Burning fire
All consuming ire
Smiling has become strange.
It seems that I've really changed.
Everything I once knew,
Grew a crooked smile and ran away.
Damning fire
Strengthening ire
And all I can do is laugh.
It's not a nice sound.
But neither is,
Lasting fire....

Streams of Heaven flowing down
Blessings from above
The life is coming from the Son
Fashioned by His love

Streams of Heaven, peace and light
The glory of His goodness grows
Eternal power and might
Always everywhere it shows

Streams of Heaven made for me
Strengthening my soul
God’s love brings all good I see
His love it makes me whole...

Assuring soul’s eternal redemption
Strengthening faith* with truth
For triumphant worthy glow
While sharing love divine.

Faith* unswerving midst prayer-haven
Reviving trust… in God, proven.

*Mark 11:22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

Yonder weeping tears
Wondering and weak
Undefiled and tender
Straightway comforting
Clasping her gingerly

Strengthening the soul
Replenishing privily love
Nourish might of mind
Disintegrating past
Renewing the future

Grasping new adventures
One connection of two
Traveling new roads
Never restrained
Tumbling down blocks
Always as one...
