Knight Rules
This poem was inspired by the poetic life of Café Jim (cafetwo2010) and godsprincess' ANGEL CAFE tribute to him. Sir Thomas Lemuel Hawke of Cornwall’s twenty rules to govern Knights, written in 1483, gives one reason to consider how much one has to invest in this life.

No Mistakes
When my hopes fade And my dreams die. And I find no answer By asking why. I just keep on trusting And hang on to my faith. Because God is just He never makes mistakes. Should the storms come And trials I must face. When I find no solution
His Name EXplodes >
Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’
The Rose that Died
Ocean waves covered her up as she sank inside. Her wings withered as she died. She could no longer feel nor breathe. The universe urged her soul to seize. She couldn't be... the beautiful flower she was meant to be.
Greatly Inspired by ReaderOfSoul
3 times I Lost it and had to recreate it Is this a Test? Will I be obedient to recreate this lovely gratitude? My cup Runneth over with Love! FYI Respond to ROS: Hi ReaderOfSouls I just wrote my latest poem In your honor Hours My phone went down Had to recreate it a third time It is my latest poem I just composed Enjoy Pls send me a respond there with feedback Poems need to be shared to glow & shine Radiate rays of the light From the creator divine! Could really use a decent laptop! My pointer finger is sore as heck From pecking on this phone I'd rather type with 10 fingers vs. One! Rachael_0622

Emaculate house Deposit back On the spot at inspection Even the garage spotless! Landlord ecstatic joyous happy!
