honing instinct
to be love inked
bliss hum steady
says we’re ready
empty yet full
soul beautiful
to do as tasked
as by God asked
we are not the doer
yet are tasked to act
we look for guidance
by God’s hand backed
heart flutters that arise
signals ego’s manifest
perhaps for this reason
earth life continues to test
TREAD SOFTLY
I do recall a quiz question
Who made the most tyres
The audience was tasked
The answer is Lego, I fear
But was that in a good year
Some loud wit then asked
Another called them liars
It gave us all indigestion
Adam
tasked with naming Eden’s spectacle.
all was very good -
even quite respectable.
Eve
named the mother of all living things
after she bit the fruit of good and evil’s seed.
Costly to the only couple - the serpent’s cling.
Tourists traipse over sites.
The necropolises
Team with the secular;
Teasing mortality.
Trauma and terror marked,
Tasked with introspection:
To learn ‘Never Forget’.

a question is asked
and we are so tasked
to ignite a mind
yet in ego’s bind
we let silence speak
that thus a sneak peek
to soul be revealed
when focus be steeled
the cosmic dancer
becomes the answer
flowing on with ease
and thus questions cease
On Santa's night his deer's refused flight gear
in chaos a stressed Claus found most unclear
beyond revealed bits, 'tail fleck'
and 'my nose behind stink specks.'
Elves were tasked to jolly-quick check each rear.

I stepped out with a mask in place,
To see the humans face to face.
But all I saw were creatures masked,
Walking on two legs like humans tasked.
My educational journey's end was near,
But humans were nowhere to appear.
Yet faith and humanity I found,
With eyes closed in this world around.
child of promises
among those near or far aged
a light of conscience
shining glow well stored
purpose in truth to others
true to his loved ones
angels tasked his care
Michael and Gabriel there
darkness and sin kept away
never in danger
a Father afar yet near
constant everlasting life

God has tasked poets,
With keeping Hope alive,
Love in all their labours,
Anger under control,
Sadness from overflowing,
Romance from slipping off the page,
And most poets can take heart from their effort,
To instill in others what they write in indelible ink,
For all who cross their page,
And read between the lines.
"The ones who have passed
will never be seen,
The ones who were tasked
will always be where
they have been."
"What we have done to
the world, I do not
know, But what we can is
the though to me
which glows."
"The glory we can bring together
as a whole, The legends
we can make together with
these roles."
Some carry swords
All praise the Lord
Warriors, messengers,
Ministers all
Others are tasked
With opening casks
And dipping out
Glorious new wine
They splash and toss
But not a drop is lost
Heart laughter and joy ensue
Holy rolling winebibbers
Joy unspeakable
Love receivable
Drunken stupor?
No, filled with light to shine
Form:
we’re called upon to console
a friend whose spouse has passed
and so we faithfully play out our life role
as we have been by the universe so tasked
the stark truth is that we have all been lied to
for all that here appears and disappears
is but a mist like the morning dew
needless are tears and fears

Nature’s lightning bugs
bear own bulbs from eve to morn
radiating hope…
…tasked as paradise lanterns
by the Creator of light.*
*Genesis 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

We each were born
To take our rightful place
Coexisting on this earth
And we were tasked
Not, to define our existence
But, to prove our worth
Our purpose then
Was gifted us
But left as undefined
So now, we must choose
What is best, not just for us
But also, for mankind
WIZDUMBs by JA 779
Whenever you strive to arrive at
What you're asked or tasked to do
You should yearn to learn perfection
Or you'll have a hasty stew
Concentration application
Assures you aren't bereft
It's most unwanted to be daunted
For what's right by what is left
Don't worry about the clock
Just revise and then regroup
Turn your pasty hasty stew into
A delightful poetry soup!
I can’t build
the bridge
But I can cross it
when asked
I can’t mark
the trail
But I can follow
when tasked
I can’t light
the fire
But I can warm
in its glow
I can’t walk
on water
But I can bathe
in its flow
I can’t play
the harp
But know an Angel
with hands
I can’t save
the masses
But love a Savior
— who can
(The First Book Of Prayers: August, 2025)
See that Santa
He's by the fire
He's bringing gifts
a tree can mire
While stoking stockings
joy will sire
Each Christmas wish
becomes real spire
That all be children
for the light
When tasked for presents
born to right
That all who rate
their children's smile
Will do so
telling tales awhile
When all along
their children's love
Is more than gifts
but some-ware shove

The Eternals Wake
Afterlifer's believes consciousness dabbles, effecting furtherance,
gainsayers, henceforth, interjects jocularity,
knowledgeable limits mortality nonbeing ... obliviates predominating, quasistationary,
relinquishes significance tasked ultrafamiliar,
vaticinators wanderings xenial,
yearning zen.

Some enact outstanding feats
of altruism in the world,
some pray, administer and comfort;
both create shrines of hope.
Yet there are others tasked to
reveal waymarks on invisible pathways,
cairns and inuksuk, signs upon the trackless;
word-symbols,
akin to rocks and pebbles.
Poets who scribble, often by chance,
point a way, and when they do
God builds a small shrine
for them also.
A Red-Letter Day
Staid pilgrims grew leery, Thanksgiving Day,
When men came to feast, half-covered in hay.
"Where's Hester?" wives asked
And elders were tasked
To march to the barn and give her an A.
Santa Goes Truant
With trollop hand-picked and madam well-paid,
Dear Santa was truant from the parade.
He ho-hoed, "so what?
I'm old with a gut,
So do this perhaps just twice a decade."
as inevitable, it came to pass
and so the question was asked
on whether we should abandon
feral soul we'd ourselves tasked
to spew toxicity that we may learn
to remain tranquil even as we burn
clever ego offering specious logic
hinting we need not trauma bond
why then keep a rear view mirror
but heart joyously does respond
effusing love, inane game end
egoic will to God's laws bend

The treasurer they called Judas,
In his folly and imprudence,
Sold his Master for silver’s stock;
The shepherd who betrayed the flock.
The fisherman they called Peter,
Tasked to build the Church and lead her,
To be her foundational rock;
The shepherd who cares for the flock.
The scholar widely known as Saul
Adopted the new name of Paul;
He saw the light on one long walk,
Repentant hunter of the flock.
Listen to poem:
As The Grass Grows
David J Walker
Protector of everything
Growing
In a backyard garden
Knowing
The heartless grass will
Take over
In an afternoon left
Unattended
Grass grows
As the wind blows
Everywhere and
Nowhere
And no one knows
why or where
it is wanted
And unwanted all
At once
As the guardian of
The garden
I am tasked to watch even
The grass grow
And no matter how slow
We will say
Too fast
