Most Commented Religion / Spirituality Poems (1,340)

(a day in heaven)

My head on heavenly gossamer pillows to lay
such exquisite rest so blissful, so deep
as my mind reflects back on events of the day~

On a Cosmogyral journey escorted
by the lightest of Aeolian wings

passing through shimmerous
Nacreous rainbows to hear,
so delicately played it's Psithurism-like sounds.

Transported through unimaginable beauty,
the likes of which nature's majesties
not ever seen nor found.

And now as I'm falling nigh unto sleep
off to another destination,
that of dream state.

Perhaps to this sleep a Reminiscence will enter
and while sleeping
will bring yet another...

Reminiscence of a much different kind
when upon awaking I shall find-

My Creator smiling,
there gracing my countenance shall be-
all the way through into my heart and my soul...
welling up Reverent feelings,
Ataraxia untold.......

One night I dreamed of walking green hills
Seeing little people that gave me chills
Following a rainbow to the end
Seeing a pot of gold and a little green man

"Top of the day to you", he said
With a little green hat on his head
"Come closer my dear to me
Come over and rest under the tree"

He said he was a cobbler by trade
As we sat under the tree in the shade
I noticed a black kettle off to the side
With gold coins he guarded with pride

He asked didn’t I want to steal them away
I told him – no – I wasn’t there to prey
He said I had earned 3 wishes for this
So think careful and tell him my list.

The first I asked for a long and healthy life
Second that in the world there no longer be strife
For the last that I wanted 3 wishes more
He laughed and slapped his knee and roared

For I'd found the secret to eternal wishes it seems
To keep using your third wish to fulfill all your dreams

I shall take a pinch
Of betrayal
A portion of despair
And a slice of heartbreak
Blend it with a large
Dose of grief
And mix it all
In your coffee
So you may experience
Exactly
How I feel

Before midnight
on Christmas eve
i put
a lighted candle
upon the window sill
to say love
of baby Jesus
welcome
to my home

This door
of the heart
is open with prayer
welcoming his holiness
to receive
the Lord's blessing
on his birthday

i sing
a song
with praise
kneeling a lamb
of God
happy birthday
lord and master
thanking you
for the gift
of love

I pull my blinds down shut to end another day
An eerie silence fills the halls with lonesomeness and decay
I draw my sheets back and clear the thoughts inside my head
Because the quietness breaks my heart when im alone in bed
I turn the T.V. on to turn the emptiness down
I hear the voices speaking, but I can't make out the sounds
I look at my bible filled with guilt and shame inside
I havent picked it up to read for quite some time
And with hell I look up to my ceiling and cry
Have You abandoned me too for ever leaving Your side
Lord just light the way and I will come back home
Lead me back to that place I was once before
I know I havent prayed, because I have been afraid
I know I let You down and I was scared of what You might say
Forgive me for ever thinking I could do this on my own
Please give me strength so that I can carry on
And help me turn these pages once again
So that I may be all I'm meant to be in the end
A better friend, a better son, and a better brother
A better uncle, nephew, cousin, and a better lover
Teach me to be a father who leads his child with strong hands
Because I know that You made me to be more than I am

Would you show me how you sleep so sweetly
Or could you teach me how not to dream
Mine have been deliberately consuming
Considerately they've been killing me
With reoccurring nightmares
Of creaking cemetery gates
The silent screams among the undead
As they lay me down within my grave
My heart beats restlessly inside of panic
Anticipating this hell I've never met
But it promised me that it missed me
Through all the nights I never slept
Its fingers grip tightly around my throat
The other hand covers my eyes
It hated that I believed in God
And all of His softly unspoken lies
Then I awake within a deeper panic
I still feel the impressions of its hands
Lord how many nights must I be pulled under
Before your heavens will take me back

It's quite interesting how we mortals are limited by time...
Blind with false notions, blind in our minds...
I can clearly recall that day in the spirit world...
The kindness of Angels....the kind that shines fine...

Armies of Angels with soft-spoken words...
Flying with golden silk feathers like birds...
Ready to witness the most important event in all of eternity...
The birth of Our Savior, my eyes were then blurred...

I knelt before Angels....I listened and heard...
I felt I should speak, but there were no words...
It was in Your infinite wisdom to not let me see...
The birth of Our Savior....Ruler of worlds...

You did not withhold all from me however...
Through feathers of Angels, I probably never...
Have seen such cries from such heavenly skies...
As liquid stars dripped from Your heavenly eyes...

For You knew the importance of what had just taken place...
And had orchestrated this concert through time and through space...
It indeed was for me and all of the inhabitants of the earth...
The birth of Our Savior...Oh Sweet Child's Birth......

My Dearest Father in Heaven;

I know it's not my right tonight to inquire of Your position...
Curiosity, has obviously, gotten the best of me...
I will not try to justify this unjust inquisition...
Why must there be, for all to see, such harsh atrocities?

It is in this holy place of solitude that I contemplate our fate...
For time waits for no one in this season of disgrace...
Spirit worlds have a perfect record of accepting...
All of those rejecting their unlimited space....

You need not answer me these things Dearest Father...
My faith will trump my fears...
I say these things in Jesus's name...
And seal them with my tears...
Amen....

A Scorpios kiss...
A scorpios kiss,
Is one not to miss
A suculant dish,
Of secret myths.
A sensual being,
That's hypnotic, yet
Appealing.
Revealed in the eyes
A stare that paralyze
The object of a heart's
Desire.
That dwells in, a loving
Disguise.
Is magnified & personified
By intuition, they thrive.
There emotional ties,
Abhors sufferation, of any kind.
In justice they seek,
To help provide for the meek.
If the cause is worthy,
there loyalty, is unswearving.
Brutal honesty, often misunderstood
For trying to do good.
Although humorous,
creative & kind
Oversensitive nature,
is perceived
A most negative vibe.
But with each kiss
There is a dangerous twist!!!!
When hurt they bring,
A most painful sting!!!!
A self defense mechanism
Sealed with a kiss!!!!
From a scorpios lips:)

If I turn water into wine
I do not mean to insult
you with a cheap magicians
trick, but to give you hope
that within my hands I hold
the true power of life's
celebration~
If I walk on water I hoped
you'd catch me smiling as
I give you courage not to
fear the storm~
When I said, 'Is not life
more than meat, is not the
gift of life more precious
than the choicest gold?'~
If I've healed the sick, have
you not seen wherein your true
healing lay?~
If I have raised the dead, is
this any more marvelous than
the yellow rose of Sharron?~
If I have suffered mockery,
persecution, and death for you,
have I not declared your worth
beyond all the stars of heaven?~
If I am just a dead man on a
stick, then where is your hope
in the land of the living?~
If I said, 'I am the way, the truth,
and the life, then how my friend have
you found hope in another?'~
If I can create loaves and fishes
out of nothing then who do you
serve that can do more?~
If I said, 'He who believes in me
shall never die, then where else
have you wandered to find the words
of life?~
Men will disappoint, but as I told
you before I will say again..
He who believes in me shall never
be put to shame~
