Our lives are always under observation,
by those who take refuge within our shadow.
We should be God's witness without cessation,
and light should shine brightly not merely a glow.

Who am I without You, witnessing Me
Does every child break their mothers heart? Or is it just for us?
The infrequent visits leaves gaps and years apart
Newly bought towels and sheet sets. Neatly folded and folded again with love and care.
Placed lovingly and rearranged in time of wait.
Anticipation. That’s were the love shows, too big to express.
The dreaming,

Solar-Lunar Wonder
Under the broad sweep of endless sky,
In that rare and hallowed moment
When the moon, in audacious stealth,
Edges before the sun,
A quietude descends, profound and deep.
The air, thick with anticipation,
Holds its breath;
The earth, in its tireless orbit,
Pauses—in reverence
To the grandeur to which we all belong.
This spectacle, this dance of light and shadow,
Where the day is

Lord, it isn’t words I say
but actions that I do.
That might cause another
to train thoughts toward you.
Help me to always be sincere
without intent to misguide.
Let my witness you’ve given
be the place I’ll abide.
For your word has told me
to let my light shine.
I can plant seed and water
but the harvest remains thine.
As

Sometimes from our simplest act of serving,
we influence others within the sound of voice.
We should never question whether deserving,
Because God didn’t cede any man that choice.
Sometimes our words
Have a great impact on the life of another.

Witnessing Earth's Wedding
We
richly green mountains
of germinating
Jeremiah prophetic strength
Before we formed you
in our valleyed womb,
we knew you
Before you came to life
rebirthed
we consecrated your humane species
We witness your
polycultured prophecy
to Earth's linguistic continents
We transubstantiate
and thereby bless
this sacred grace
taking late summer's place
in cooperative ecofeminist space
Beyond merely humane reflections
back upon our ancient organic roots
and verdant face
Resisting degreening States
of monocultural disgrace,
Restoring humane humility

Letting Go and Calmly Witnessing All
Letting Go and Calm Witnessing
When U have no solution
You tried it all; Fate Insists you fall. You no longer stand tall
Such moments come often
We try to forget the falls - feeling nothing, helps find your nobodyness
If we hold up a "failure at Solution"
That moment is a mix of doing nothing AND "doing along" with the

Witnessing In the Mall
I'm at the mall
waiting for my new lenses
to find their inside home
in my old outside frames,
Hopefully
not like new wine
in old
opaque skins.
I try to engage
with an anthro-war story,
"The Invisible Woman"
Feeling myself silently camouflaged
in a sedate sitting area
sparsely inhabited only by my eyes
searching
and ears
spying
Listening for what invisible witnesses
hear
and empathically feel
"In wartime,
trusting the wrong person
can

Holiday Witnessing
Written: by Miracle Man
October 24, 2021
This holiday season, there's those who’ll need me,
In prayer, I’ll ask God, what my mission might be.
God has a mission, for each and every being,
But Gods divine plan, lies beyond our seeing.
Give me a desire to speak, where ever you send,
For God you’re the master of the violent wind.
Just

Witnessing Transmutation
Tranquil presence
inner sentience
in the current
omnipresent
Thought ripple
in spiralling circles
orbiting our attention
entrapment in stagnation
Step by step and layer by layer
veils of delusion we uncover
feeding off our life force
fuelling ferality coarse
Discarding half measure
we vaporise under bliss cover
to become the void of emptiness
divine entwined in the sea of oneness

Witnessing the Miracle of Birth
I
stared as
she lay on
her side struggling
to accomplish what nature demanded.
I was seven--wide-eyed and curious.
She was straining.
Then out came
a small
wet
glob--
and four
more! Mama
Kitty cleaned her
babies lovingly. What a happy day!

Cemetery Witnessing
In the late 1970s I was a bricklayer, and for about half a year we worked in a new housing allotment along a state highway in Ohio. There were towns in the area, and a small city about 10 miles away, but at the time this was still countryside. 15 or 20 of

We'Re Witnessing a Travesty
We're Witnessing a Travesty
By Franklin Price
9/13/2016
We're witnessing a travesty
In congress on this day
They've done it many times before
Must always have their say
A hearing on the server
That was used by Hillary
The FBI resolved it
Congress will not let it be
Congress is wasting money
It's not budgeted to spend
It's a judiciary decision
To resolve it in the end
Congress hasn't

Witnessing Mermaids
passive agression
schizoid fantasy
she seemed patient
like green earth
quiet and withdrawn
like a hermit
interjection of thoughts
projection of wants
red wine
we are walking
white sand spreading
music of the heightening
waves capsizing
the fortress of black
rock
distorted emotions
conversion of sublimed
lust
we are uniting
union of ecstasy
blessed
witnessing mermaids
