SpongeBob,
A grand pop culture sensation,
Known globally: from nation to nation,
Inspired thousands since creation,
Made humorous, for education,
How you helped form our generation,
You truly uphold your reputation,
So hear my heartfelt declaration - You were truly the best animation

"As you live deep in the heart, the mirror gets clearer and cleaner".- quote by Rumi
Majestic and a clean heart when it was born.
Immense sponge absorbing the best and the worst of life,
Risking purity to abandon its principles.
Reconsider about cleaning where your heart reflects.
Offer yourself the best image
for the others to look at.
Reset mistakes diving deep inside, where you only can go.

sponge cake sunrise
reveals whipped meringue hillside
marshmallow cooled-down snowcap
weeks before Christmas
will Christmas bring
a snow covered night
miniture sleigh and flying reindeer
who knows, dreams might come true
Sponge cake is made with egg yolks where angel food cake is made from egg whites, therefore, sponge cake is yellow and angel food cake is white.

A hard block gaping holes harden matters;
Seeping through encased in liquid softens;
This is the reaction of a sponge and water;

Ingredients
Set the scales from oz to grams
Don’t forget the rag jam
You also need ½ kilo crystal white
½ kilo self raising light
8 eggs from the chicks mother
3 tubs of butter
½ kilo white ice
Makes the cream taste nice
Preparations
Gently break the seal of the crystal white
Stire in the self raising light
Add eggs and two tubs of butter
Plonk them don't flutter
Whisk until fluffy and light
Use the wrist to get it right
Place in oven until hard and swelled
First you got to grease two tins well
With two fingers you got to work it in
So It’s wet right to the rim
Then spread in the mix
Bake in 30 minutes
Once baked leave to cool
Face down’s a good tip for you
Overturn the tins and squeeze the bottom up in
Make sure you got no sticky mix on the rim
Mix the last butter with the icewhite
Fork it up real nice
Now you got the cream
To spread with the jam inbetween
Spread the jam evenly over the bottom and cream on the top
Put together and a sponge is what you got

Teach your Children well
As they are more porous than sponges
Wring the badness out of them
Because unlike Sponge Bob square pants
Who lives in a pineapple under the sea
Life up here on earth is far more complex to navigate
And every bit of experience, knowledge or lesson gained from you can impart
from your past mistakes
Can only ease their passage when life delivers vinegar instead of wine or rain instead of sunshine

With my absorbency nature
I take in freely God’s flowing grace
Accumulating with abundance from Christ’s compassion*-store
Optimizing the Saviour’s goodness as I’m soaked in His mercy-grants.
Midst my squeezable trait
I give kindness with whole earnestness
Loading out forgiveness with forbearance-cheer
Maximizing offered provisions up to the last drip’s supply.
In my partnership with the Lord’s hand
I can cleanse, wash, and sanitize:
sanctifying the defiled, transforming with righteousness
pardoning iniquities, beautifying midst gentleness’ long suffering.
By my willingness, never reluctant
I’m ready to be emptied, accomplishing my designed fulfillment…
Thus, keep me showing my true worth of precious value
As you exercise your loving power over me with all your best and utmost.
*Psalm 86:15 But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.

Ernest went to the doctor,
who said that his spleen must come out
The day that he went for his treatment
a rumor was going about
That the doctor was seemingly careless,
and leaving some sponges behind
So Ernest confronted the surgeon,
and gave him a piece of his mind
He ranted until he was flustered,
then after a calming down pause
Told him the staff should be looking,
accounting for sponges and gauze
The doctor was most reassuring;
he said it would all be okay
And told him that he and his nurses
would be looking in earnest today.

A Chocolate Sponge Wedding Cake
---------------------------------------
Three chocolate bases
hold up a chocolate cake.
Three chocolate bases!
A dream, for heaven's sake.
Ruffles of rich chocolate
look like a piglet's ear.
The wedding guests are stoic -
of their weight they have no fear.
Solidly, the chocolate
is billing the top spread
and chocolate sandwiches, I've heard,
(or maybe what I read).
The cake is crowned with chocolate,
yes, more to fill the plate.
The bride, in white, is common sight,
but her cake is quite first rate.

In a Continuum consciousness far beyond
In a timeless time of pre existence
Waking wonders that unfold and respond
With the Kingdom keys of less resistance...
Seismic secular Soul secretions
Creating many learned living legions
Chaotic Cosmic consciousness swirling in Majestic masses
Super Sponge Soul absorbing the Multiverse of gases
Dynamic DNA dancing strands of phosphate spice
The blueprints of our creation double helix shall suffice
Spiritual Soul the embodiment of a specified source
Collective Consciousness through out the human course
Dark molecular matter that we cannot see
Is the Love, the galactic glue that is to be.
Why is it necessary that Soul consciousness be achieved while in the physical body? Is this the purpose of our souls being encased in a physical body?

The Gift of Healing
A friend of mine is a 'healer', of the spiritual kind,
She uses Crystals, Incense and concentrates her mind,
To channel all her energies, to bring you some relief,
She can heal your spirit, without need for your belief.
I too can heal I told her, with a little twinkle,
But I use pies and sponges, and a little sprinkle,
Whisking up my sugars, creaming them with dairy,
left on every doorstep, from the 'Baking Fairy'.
The recently bereaved, the lonely and the ill,
My offerings soothe their soul, better than any pill,
Just one or two slices, from the sweetest cake,
And made with my compassion, a Spiritual Bake.
So, if you're sad and lonely, or have chicken pox,
You may open your front door, to find a little box,
Open up that ribbon and take a slice of tart,
Made with love from me to you, to lift your heavy heart.

"More Spongebob, Mimi"--this I hear
a dozen times a day.
How much more can I stand to see?
No more of this, I pray!
I turn the TV off and run
to fetch his favorite toys.
When he says, "Spongebob's much more fun,"
I must seek other ploys.
"A Krabby Patty's what I'd like,"
he says of noontime's meal.
The common lunch I fix the tyke,
he eyes with little zeal.
The Krusty Krab invades my sleep,
and Squidward haunts my dreams.
Those creatures from the ocean deep
won't leave me be, it seems.
Can cartoon sponges start a trend
of death by kiddie show?
If SpongeBob's laugh can cause the end,
I'll be the first to go.

Its effects run in you
Always through you
And when you’re not careful,
It can go all the way down
If you clench it hard enough
It almost squeezes back
Ripping at your everything.
In the moment it wrenches you
And you play dead for a while
Until you’re back to reality
And it releases your smile.
It’s not as bad as you thought
You’re not as bad as you thought.
Squeeze yourself,
Releasing all that needs to be said and done
Tempt yourself
For you’re not the only one.
Inside it feels like heaven
And you’re tempted to look inside
If you do, you’ll have to rip at it
Is the cost worth the price for knowledge?
It’s opened…
You see everything
But like a child, the gift of sight is blinding
You’re scared of this new beauty
You can’t understand
There’s an adjustment with time
And you feel alive.
If you accept it’s will
The rest will come full circle,
Don’t lose your battle
For the worst thing that comes
Is happiness, beyond good judgment…
