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!
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!
To Enlarge
Enlarge my ears
So I may hear
Your message
So much more clear
But not just for me
But so that others
May also see
Your Glory!
Enlarge also their ears
So You may stretch
Their ‘hearts’
For all our spirits need
A fresh, new start
Please save us
Since you love us
This most earnestly
I pray
Each, Every Day
For You, Dear Christ,
In your power, might
To stop all this vicious decay
Around us!!!
Imagine
Imagine,
If you will,
A group of people,
A church,
Not too far a stretch
Calmed into a sleep
By
A lullaby
Of a distant world’s drums
Soft, at first,
Then suddenly
Exposing sharp teeth
Gouging out eyes
Seeking souls to blind
Demons everywhere
Pulling out the eyes
Unaware, blindly people will stare
How, oh, how will they awake
From what they believe to be
Only a blissful state?
What catastrophe will it take?
This lust for comfort’s sleep
How will it be slaked?
Perhaps only a great pain
God may have to use
If from this dulled sleep
They do not rouse,
& reach for eternity to gain
We will need help
So,
Watchmen on the walls
Ring out in a strong voice
Sound out a great call
We need no further debates
To save one and all
Before it becomes indeed
For our country, this world,
Much, much too late!!

Quietly Soft but Deadly
It may start,
(for most it does)
Quietly & softly
In the heart
Deception
Seeking reception
Into your innermost recesses
This will be your greatest test
Large numbers
Consciences so burned
They will not recognize
So it will quickly seize
Its chance to take hold
satan will try to sneak in
a foothold he lusts to win
Evil hoping to replace
The least little taste
Of Christ’s lovely perfection
The darkness says
Christ does not exist
But the strongest weapon yet
In its arsenal
To persuade you satan
Does not exist
This you must do
Go to any lengths
Use all your own
& lean on the always there
Of Christ’s strength!!
