Too Archaic?
Evil
An old, archaic word
You say
But just listen
If you will but stay
Is not man also ancient
On the face of
This revolving planet?
Also, since antiquity
Yet basically
Man is as the same
Since all the history of
Our yesterdays
Thru & up to
All the current of
Our present’s todays!
So,
Do not overrule that
Ancient word
Evil
Spun from the workings of
A devil
satan seeks only to destroy
Every man, woman
Girl & even the youngest of
All the boys
Work against it
Within yourself
Try to overcome it
Seek God’s light,
His Spirit’s pure power
To win for each of us
Of life these hours
That can come at us
In such a resounding,
Cascading crush!
Two Sides to Each Coin
Two sides to our God
Both beautiful to see
One and then the other
Each
Yet completely necessary
Flip Him over
Both sides blindingly brilliant
& equally significant
Neither to neglect
In this way, we peruse
His totality to inspect
Yet today,
Many teachers
Supposedly of The Way
Prefer over the other
Only one
Disregarding His Being
His Total Sum
Teaching,
Wanting the blessings
But leaving out obedience
Ignoring in His book
All written evidence
His is Master
& Our Judge
So,
Polish up both sides of
That coin
Bring both sides to a
Sparkle
And accept both sides
Of His intensely loving
Gospel
Just in time for Christmas Shopping! My new Childrens holiday book, The Christmas Tree Angel is available on Amazon and Kobo, Apple Books and Barnes and Noble through books2read as an ebook. This is not a picture book but a storybook with illustrations.
A small angel brings to life the spirits of love and compassion on a cold, snowy Christmas Eve night!
On a cold wintry Christmas Eve, a decoration in the shape of an angel hangs on the most beautiful Christmas tree in town, the tree in the large city park. Even though the same snowy white as the other angels, she is made fun of for the too small, misshapen size of her wings, but only she has enough kindness in her heart to want to help two unhappy children who pass by her tree. Because of her wish to be able to help the children, she is given the power to fly by a special Christmas star.
She suffers through many dangers in order to help the two children and their mother have a merrier, brighter Christmas than they would have had without her kindness. For her courage, love and compassion, she is given a final reward as the sun rises over a new Christmas Day in the city!
Above is the below poem set to video and music. It’s also on my youtube channel at https://youtu.be/l3K1XIiPDXU Hope you enjoy. Have a blessed day and Praise God!
Winds
Winds of heaven blowing
Falling to bless
Rising back on praise
Turning eyes upward
We gaze
With hands upraised
In giving we receive
God needs nothing from
Man
Unselfishly He sends
To all if they choose
His gracious, loving winds
Meant to teach, uplift
Souls to transform, win
For us this is His glory’s gift
And in those winds at times
So powerful, so swift
received even thru stormy skies
Thunders the promise of
His Infinity’s Gracious Paradise!
I Love
I love Jesus of Nazareth
Why you ask
Because,
Orphaned as I was,
Alone only He
Performed the task
Chose to love me
When no other’s love
Could I feel or see
So out loud I try to say
His Name
In the chaos of each, my days,
In the midst
Of all the scoffers
I only wished
I had said His Name
Even more often
Such a joy does it carry
I hope never to grow weary
The saying of this Beauty,
His Name,
JESUS
Just to hear the sound
So by that speaking
May His grace
More & more abound
To each & all my sisters
& my brothers!
