IM TAKING OFF WITH THE WEATHEr.
Wake up to something new———-………
in my kitchen at the break of day
I heard a tiny voice trump out a “hey!”
it was a baby elephant in my coffee cup.
“How are you?” he asked me. “What is up?”
This surprised me a bit, it had not happened before.
I tried to tell my husband before he got out the door.
He rolled his eyes, and acted like I was insane.
Two seconds later a giraffe crawled out of my kitchen drain.
Remember long ago they sinned
when God moved out
And strangers moved in
Remember it was other gods
They claimed existed
And that made them odd
Remember when by prophets told
When they were wrong
By selling their soul
Some see the same thing today
The worship of gods
Another way
Some that wonder why they kill
After much of their own blood
Was spilled
Some wonder why today
The world would hate them
The same old way
Why has it come to living this way
While the world see's
The End of days
Why has something became because
When it was clear
These are the Laws
Why must men destroy the world
And the death of children
Go ignored
When will God take back His throne
From those men
That wish they owned
When will men see the Wrath Of God
The destruction of the world
For it's evil plots
When will this time be made for loss
and the words "Too late"
The bridge we cross
If prayers can be heard, so ought my thoughts;
Some parts of me wish to establish a permanence
while omitting any whisk of a thought;
Persistence relishing in the absence of any consideration of a cost.
More parts of me wish to be of service
to a world with a growing desire of distance;
With a recipe for creating treasures that can never rust nor find the fingers of thieving hands;
leading corrosion away from trust.
A batter for the desire to live within expanding opportunity, sacrificing a self for the growth of an "us."
A foundational stone to a community.
A structure to bear difference
Like the strongest pallbearer's palm.
Yet before anything may ever become.
Please refresh my sights upon the world where my own visions have unwittingly grown tyrannical in efforts to enable of what I hope to be an Eden;
Let it be
And let it be greatly inimitable
for all
balter down a road
I see why I was the one in silent mode
Who else understands the unseen? Why does it have to be me?
What qualities can I share?
Someone wants my expertise?!
I want to try, even look into the other side
just a peek...
Even Jung once said that we need to look inside our darkness
to understand the ones in need.

Our journey began like a joke in 2016,
Things seemed to be moving upside down,
We had miss on to complete before 2019,
We are glad to be wearing crowns,
What's up the world!
Coming from zero to hero,
Was a dream currently coming true,
Our brain weighs more than a kilo,
Displine and respect it is our favorite shoe,
What's up the world!
Congrat to me and my fellow students,
We are aiming the highest target,
We want to use knowledge to make cents,
Our eyes focused on the of right,
What's up the world!
What’s God’s Glory?
Awe and everything
Immaculate magnificence beauty;
The glory of God is the magnificence, beauty,
And perfection of God's being Holy;
It's also the honor and praise all,
That’s due to God;
I see Him in you and me,
And in us seeing;
Through God's creation,
including the sun, stars, ocean, and eagles;
That’s and more, God’s Glory?
New birth born baby Holy;
Through God's redemptive acts,
including the resurrection of Jesus;
Through God's image-bearers,
including humanity believing such;
How can people respond to God's glory?
By glorifying God through worship, surrendering, in love
Compelled reverencing in agape ;
By seeking to know and love God;
By pointing others to the good things God has done;
By giving thanks to God Even you and I;
This is humble graced and being grateful you and I;
Showing our love righteously so Hallelujah;
"The heavens declare the glory of God”;
Everything was created for God's glory even you and I;

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2025©
chant of a new beginning
first picture of summer
bronzed legs
see the flowers scream their joy
Pretty in pink
she loves to be one of the chosen
loving the stage
she murmur her fledgling ideals
Love is a wonderful colour
by the burning barricades
through the early thrush rain
DO YOU REMEMBER WALKNG TO SCJOOL ALONE AND HOW ARE PARENTS
NEEDED COMMERCIALS TO REMEMBER THEY HAD PUT IS OUT, YOU REMEMBER
THE FEELING WHEN NO ONE SCREAMED AT STREET LIGHT DAWN, KIND OF
HAPPY KIND OF WORRIED IS SOMETHING WRONG THESE ARE DIFFERENT
TIMES NO LAWN DARTS NO SOAP IN THE MOUTH WHEN I START CUSSING
WHATS THE FUSS WHERE IS MY KID SEARCH THAT BUS
Some had bank accounts taken t'was on the news this
Situation'
Though some reasons were given.! That these people were un-ruly
Un-shriven?
Yet that turned out a misnomer? Or a lie.? Maybe
Just a stumer?
Let us trust in the passage; of some time, all can't
Manage, thats.Just fine.
Will there be a retribution? On these operatives of
Institutions?
Social steerers; cheerers of default changing, who appear
Mostly as changelings'
Should the cohorts of a feather? Get some tar as per
To the letter?
Will the emails be 'flying?' Will many pundits be vying??
Is there any reality?
Can there; be? some countering of such insanity?
Stella was gorgeous, like a valentine box
Charlie got his boots on, to accidentally run into her
What’s your hurry? Asked his mother.
Knowing full well who was out there.
A promise they’ll keep?
Was their resolve deep?
Make plans.
Hour glass sands.
Out of our hands.
Time slips away.
Must not delay.
Chance of survival.
Life’s a revival.
It all depends.
Must make amends.
If we knew how long.
Would it make us strong?
Did they give a year.
Will I be here?
Make a bucket list.
Will I be missed?
They say life is short.
I’m here to report.
When told they give,
A year to live,
The things you didn’t do,
Seem important too.
Next year is in doubt.
Is what it’s about,
Fun and laughter,
Peace ever after,
Happiness and cheer,
So happy New Year.
its the time of year
when its near
those that you care
you share
mabe boxs candy make dad dandy
or lovly card soft or hard
music too have ball
CHRISTMAs IS FOR ALL
What’s The Big Deal?

Because with new fangle gadgets I’m out of touch,
so It takes me twice as long to do half as much.
Young sprouts think I’m a used up old fighter,
can they type a letter on my Royal typewriter?
Inventing new things makes the world go round,
most sub standard and didn’t last long I found.
Throughout my years I’ve outlived many a fad,
Usually pitched by women, most scantily clad,
