Take a good look around and tell me what you see
The beauty that is God’s and life’s infinity
Please hold me by the hand and teach me how to pray
Help me to love God and to worship Him each day !
AMEN.
OLD REFRAIN ( 2020 ) 2020/02/23
There is a thought hums through my brain
Reminds one of an old refrain
Familiar words I’ve heard before
What is it we are waiting for ?
Our Precious Lord and Sacred Dove,
The Prince of Peace from up above
Fulfilling promises God gave
To save us from the Final Grave.
IT’S POLITICS ( 2020 ) 2020/01/20
Some days may start with smiles and grin
Before life’s problems do begin
Somehow we never seem to know
Which way each season’s wind will blow.
We take our chances, pray a lot
Make do the best with what we’ve got
Remember how the people care
The kindest are more prone to share.
Today the nation’s full of fools
Believing they make up the rules
And follow any path they choose
Without a threat of win or lose.
How sad that we are come to this
Peace destroyed by a ” Judas ” kiss !
ALL MUST ANSWER ( 2019 ) 2019/10/08
This heart of mine cannot erase
The image of that gentle face
I’d noticed oft how kind you were
To passerby or some stranger.
The paths we trod as each grew old
Echo our values wise and bold
The Lord above shall judge us all
And we must answer to His call !
CALAMITY IS HERE ( 2019 ) 2019/09/22
Well here we are at God’s front door
What is it we are waiting for
An invitation to come in
A smile, a kiss, a foolish grin ?
We’ve not much time, let’s hurry up
And place our futures in His cup
We cannot fail to understand
Calamity is close at hand.
The world is crumbling as we wait
For destiny to crash this gate
Oh, Lord above, do heed our plea
Open our eyes and set us free !
GOD’S JUDGEMENT DAY ( 2019 ) 2019/09/11
How often is it that we think
This world of ours is on the brink ?
What e’er occurs within our sight
No matter if it’s left or right
Should savour all despite the fear
God’s Judgement Day moves ever near !
DAY OF JUDGEMENT ( 2019 ) 2019/07/22
Oh blessed Lord, help me to find
The path that does to heaven wind
I want to aid and clear the way
For all of those who wish to stay
I can’t believe the time grows near
The day of judgement soon is here !
NOAH’S FAITH ( 2019 ) 2019/06/26
The storm, it thunders all around
With ne’er a silence to be found
The light’ning crashes in the dark
Illuminating all in spark
Its odor makes the air smell sweet
As rivers flood through every street
I wonder if old Noah feared
The wrath of God when it appeared,
Those moments when the clouds did burst
Do you believe that he felt cursed
Or was his faith in God so strong
He held no fear his whole life long ?
EXCITING INDUSTRY ( 2019 ) 2019/05/09
From my front window I can see
The most exciting industry
All of God’s creatures hard at work
With not a single one who’ll shirk
How marvelous that it must be
Assured our God provides for thee.
Tis true that neither you nor I
Have the ability to fly
But we are charged by destiny
To help His creatures remain free
This has been so since ages past
Let’s help the system work to last !
HE IS NOT BLIND ( 2019 ) 2019/04/06
Good morning world, I’ve come to say
The Lord gives us another day
A day to do what e’er we choose
A day to win, a day to lose.
And if we’re smart we’ll use it well
That others may His story tell
And so it moves us closer to
His day of judgement tried and true.
It matters much our real intent
Like how our wisdom has been spent
And have helped our fellow man
The best as many of us can.
Our God is fair, unerring kind
But to our faults He is not blind !
THE SEARCH ( 2019 ) 2019/04/02
There was a road that we once saw
What was it we were searching for
God’s invitation on our door
To help us find oh, so much more !
THE ESCAPE ( 2019 ) 2019/03/24
Far in the distance I can hear
The sound of all the passing trains
The wail that echoes loud and clear
Repeating its wistful refrains,
Across this world the trains hold court
With language we can’t comprehend
In climates cold or damage fraught
Or crises we don’t understand.
Oh sad the trail of distance brings
To circumstance beyond our reach
It is the sound of dying things
The skill of God will soon impeach !
NO CHOICES ( 2019 ) 2019/01/28
Regarding all life’s pain and ache
I’ve found my heart close to a break
Select a path which each must choose
And for this once walk in my shoes
The complex part aft all’s been done
Is sadness that does one o’ercome.
However long this life may be
There’s but one judge of thee and me.
Tis true for those who’ve gone away
There is no option leave or stay !
INTIMATION ( 2018 ) 2018/08/14
I cannot bear the tragedy
That is about to o’er take me
And wills my life to sadder be
From now until eternity !
THIS IS HIS SHOT ( 2018 ) 2018/04/22
An early light knifes through the dark
The air is still and calmly stark
A silence rises from the ground
One can’t discern a single sound.
Before the morning does begin
There is a chill that settles in
Starting at toes, it makes the trip
To limbs and then to fingertips !
How much longer must all await
To learn the judgement of our fate
In truth we know what we have got
God is the Judge, this is His shot !
INFALLIBLE ( 2017 ) 2017/10/28
I sight the sunrise o’er the hill
It’s vision sends my heart a thrill
How wonderful it is to see
A world wrapt in God’s symmetry.
I hear the rustle of the leaves
They whisper in the morning breeze
What is it they all preach to me
Regarding God’s infinity ?
I feel the impact of His power
Increasing with each passing hour
The mark He leaves, indelible
Because He is infallible !
THE FIRST STONE ( 2017 ) 2017/06/21
Now I have trudged this rocky path
With angry crowds so full of wrath
I really don’t know what to think
Seems sanity is on the brink
There’s not much left to make great sense
The climate has become intense.
Participants are so inclined
Pretending to be dumb and blind
But stop before one does the deed
The rule in hand all must concede
The Lord demands that he alone
Who sinless be, cast the first stone !
TIME HAS RUN OUT ( 2017 ) 2017/04/17
The dawn has risen, oh Lord be praised
The tomb is emptied and passion raised
One more prayer as the fest has begun
How shall we know tis over and done,
For each must choose his separate way
If one is to reach the judgement’s day
The table’s been set, the places laid
Time has run out and the piper’s paid !
DESTINY ( 2016 ) 2016/05/06
Of all the words we’ve left unsaid
Both true and wise before we’re dead
Too few are worth their final breath
Aft all is done we still greet death !
WARNING TO ALL ( 2016 ) 2016/02/21
I hear the wind move through the trees
There sounds a voice that speaks with ease
I sense my name, I halt and heed
For I’m a child of God indeed.
The world about doth now resound
And trembles with a fear profound
The earth it rumbles neath my feet
Anon God’s plan will be complete
Warning to all, the heavens vow
His time to come twill soon be now !
RETRIBUTION ( 2015 ) 2015/11/22
All deeds once hid deep in the dark
Will come to light under the sun
While God sees all and strikes His mark
And patient waits till all has done !
RETURN TO EDEN ( 2015 ) 2015/06/21
I see the shadows on the walls
Shadows that roam aft nighttime falls
I hear the sound that grips the air
But when I search there’s nothing there.
I feel a shaking all around
But there’s no movement to be found
I sense a trembling ‘mongst the trees
But there’s no wind amid the leaves.
While underneath the seething grows
The mountains lift, the lava flows
The desert spreads, the oceans rise
This earth’s preparing for reprise !
PROLOGUE ( 2015 ) 2015/06/19
When I was young, a wedded bride
I loved my home it was my pride
Soon it was time for motherhood
Expectant life felt as it should.
The love a newborn baby brings
Can warm the heart and give it wings
Each greets the world with that first yelp,
Those early years need all the help.
While in between weighs take and give
One learns to grow and how to live
Seems joy is but the simple way
To judge achievement in our day.
As I do age my needs become
Just one more chore that must be done
And all this wisdom I have learned
Adds to virtues I may have earned.
Here at the end it all appears
Our lives are full of smiles or tears
But who will be the one to test,
The one to know which is the best ?
JUDGEMENT TIME ( 2015 ) 2015/06/16
The winds of war rage at the gate
And tell us now our time is late
We’ll know no peace until it’s done
For we have reached our kingdom come !
THE PATH TO FOLLOW ( 2014 ) 2014/11/17
I have travelled the road and seen the light
In the early dawn or on darkest night
I have wandered far from the common way
And wondered where was it I’d gone astray.
Well I pondered long and I queried hard
And the answer I heard was a mixed card
The truth is always about the right take
God teach me how not to make a mistake !
FIDELITY ( 2014 ) 2014/05/04
Sometimes we dance in different shoes
Why is it that the pair we choose
May not fit well first time around
Yet proper size can still be found ?
Shoes help us pace life’s hidden things
They come with laces and with strings
Some that we like or might have known
With soles of cork or leather sewn !
A shoe is meant to tread the ground
To help us keep the path we’ve found,
Along some lane or lonely street
Who dares to walk with barefoot feet ?
JUDGEMENT ( 2013 ) 2013/04/23
The swiftly graying darkly coursing sky
Does play upon my fickle inner eye
And bares a mystery both stark and bold
That speaks to me of long lost dreams untold.
These dreams I thought had flown so far away.
Yet seeming near, had somehow lost their way.
Some fringed and faded shadows left behind
Shedding aged reflection as they unwind
What had once been I recognised anew
And purpose wrought with aim and course so true.
The passion in my heart that won’t decline
A hungry yearning that I can’t define
The dreaming in my mind that cannot fade
A hard decision that I have not made
The longing in my soul that will not wane
A quest for meaning that I’ve failed to gain.
And there among the past that wastes away
Find sad remains of yet another day
One unknown force that placed the founding stone
Has willed this legacy to us alone.
There in the night with truth possessed and sown
Who by their fruits at last shall they be known.
