My mind is in the clouds
as i marvel at God's
handy work as i marvel
at all He can do and
who He is.
The simplest things
impress me as i hear
a bird sing.
As i listen to natures
sound and watch all
that is around me.
Now can you tell how
miraculous He is.
All that He has
accomplished and all
He will if we just
let him.
Ask Him to lead our
path for our life.
Ask Him to show us the
way for your life today.
Pray to Him to show you
the way each and every day.

A soft breeze blows gentle
From ancient winds
Bringing back memories of pain
Unfelt ever since
Tell me, to what great solitude
Does the darkness give
Only a breath of asylum
So that I may live

Let us be of addiction
And dark light mass
Peer into a world
Made of broken glass
Let us explore the cavities of
A realm unknown
Only to find a sactuary
Less than thrilled to be our own

Let us be of legends
And tales untold
Let us be of darkness
And the secrets
Only it can unfold
Let us be of peace
And a journey afar
Praying to some godly beast
We never know who we really are

We can think back on this day
Only every now and then
Never revealing to everyone
Who we've always been.

Be someone who listens.. and you will be heard
Be someone who cares.. and you will be loved
Be someone who gives.. and you will be blessed
Be someone who comforts.. and you shall know peace
Be someone who genuinely seeks to understand.. and you will be wise
... Be someone who is kind.. be someone who is considerate..
...and you will be admired
Be someone who values truth.. and you will be respected
Be someone who takes action.. and you will move life forward
Be someone who lifts others higher.. and your life will be rich
Be someone who is filled with gratitude
...and there will be no end for which you’ll be thankful
Be someone who lives with joy and with purpose
Be someone who shines brightly
Be.. in every moment.. that special someone.. you were truly meant to be.

~ Ralph Marston

For you took an interest
in me as if you wanted
to be there for me
helping me positively.
You reached out your
hand as a christian
friend i felt like God
had sent you to me
knowing that i needed
the figure you portrayed
to make my life complete.
I had never known what
it it was like to have
a father figure here on
earth for me who would
lift me up and encourage
me in all things that are
to be out there for me.
This made me cry.
I could not figure out why.
Then i finally realized
this is what i had asked
God for all my life to
know what it was like to
have a father figure to
be in my life.
All i have to say is thank
you Lord in every way.
For you have been there
all my life setting me on
the path that i need to
be in order to be free of
all the pain in my life
and my iniquities.

Every good gift perfectly placed from above
Comes from the father of lights showing perfect love
Without variation or a shadow of turning
A light so bright always burning
All things work together for good for those he shall love
His truth is sent straight from above
In his right hand seven stars shine
The power in him so Devine
A countenance like the sun shinning in its strength
The depth of his heart can't be measured in length
He is a warrior sent from above
His arms are open wide showing perfect love



Coming with the clouds every eye shall see
He who lives once dead but now he lives free
The stone was removed he rose above the cave
He still lives waiting for someone to save
Surely the one that holds the key
To break the holds and set you free
His love endures forever


In his right hand seven stars shine
The power in him so Devine
A countenance like the sun shinning in its strength
The depth of his heart can't be measured in length
He is a warrior sent from above
His arms are open wide showing perfect love

He doesn't use a pitch dork
He doesn't have a tail
He comes disguised
as fear and lies,
to remind you when you fail.
He doesn't wear a red suit and he doesn't smell like smoke,
he sneaks around
until he finds your doubt,
and that's where
he makes his home
When he comes for you
all you gotta do,
is take look at the devil
right square in the eye,
tell him,
I have believed you
for the very last time.
Devil I know
you been lying to me,
you do not define me.
All of your power
has been swept away,
your threats are as empty,
as Jesus grave.
So devil go get behind me, because
you do not define me
He knows the ways
that we're different,
how we're tempted
to choose a side.
Takes the beauty
in our diversity,
and will use it
to divide.
And he'll split us over doctrine
Or the color of our skin
And when we fight
with fear and hate
He's the only one who wins.
But when he comes your way
Just put him in his place.
Just take a look at the devil right square in the eye
and tell him
I have believed you,
for the very last time.
Devil, I know you've been lying to me
you do not define me.
All of your power
has been swept away,
your threats are as empty,
as Jesus grave.
So devil go get behind me, because
you do not define me.

This is a poem to humanity. When you read it, stop and think. You can apply it to anyone or anything you meet along the road. For we are but spirits in human form trying to negotiate our way through this earthly existence. However - the way in which you negotiate this Life is up to you. You are the creator of your own destiny. You have free will and decide. How you treat your fellow human and the beautiful other beings we share this earth with - therein lies the key not only to your own evolution - but to the evolution of all. For we are all one created in the image of God.

“ Ta do shuil go h-alainn ( Gaelic)
Your eyes are beautiful ( English )
“ Your eyes are beautiful “
full of wisdom, fire and passion.
The thread of gold, which sparkles when you smile,
ignited by the thoughts therein.
Like a mountain stream that sparkles in the clear sunlight of creation.

Looking in those eyes I wonder what lies within,
The years of learning, the yearning for knowledge.
The unconquerable spirit that shines through
The deep recess’s, the crags and the abyss.

Through Love and pain, laughter and tears,
memories accumulated down through the years,
wonderment, mystique, beauty and innocence.

What is it I see in you that I yearn for in my being?
Is it know loves gentle graces once more?
To wash away the fear and rise anew
pulsating with life to seek loves opportunities once more.

The unconquerable spirit that always shines through,
is that the part of me that longs for you ?

For when I look in your eyes and you take away the veils,
I recognize the beauty in us that always prevails,
and so the seed that has been laid bare in that part of me which I had long forgotten,
came to see the light of creation once more.
For far too long it had lingered in that barren place,
In the depths of mis-creation.
Not knowing that the sun was shining in my heart,
It had lain there for years unaware of loves gentle graces.

Thank you Spirit for reminding me who I am

Thank you God for letting me be who I am.
We are but messengers passing through on our way back to God/Spirit. Treat everyone you meet with kindness. Always strive to awaken the light in those that you meet. However always remember “ to thine own self be true” and never forget the words of Abraham Lincoln “ speak softly and carry a big stick”, for if the message is not received, send that person love and light, bless them and be on your way for you have naught to prove but to yourself. There is much work to be done and many souls to be touched.

Your first duty is to yourself always. In taking care of yourself you become a light bearer to light the path for those that follow. Walk the walk - not talk the talk.

In sunshine and in sorrow always prevail - for “ the kingdom of heaven is within yourself my child “. All you have to do is go within and trust. That which is within you will never see you wrong. Use your intuition more - listen to God’s little voice - learn to trust. Come from your heart centre with pure intent. If this is reciprocated that is indeed a joy, for to see the light stirring is always a beautiful experience and a joy to behold - if it should fall upon deaf ears - fear not - Always allow. Everything will always find its way back to the light.

Once the first step is taken on this path you will never return to your previous vibrations. At times it may be a lonely path - however if you could but see through the eyes of spirit, you will be so humbled and exalted once you have come a little ways and stop to look back. For this is how we grow, evolve and return to God (know our true selves - for we are God).

The oil skin draped along
with the gum boots

Sitting proudly
with the
Hat

The whistle
lay within the lips

Coming home?

Next paddock looked fine
As the bright
early moon

shone secretly on their wayward way

Such green
and a number
colors
to allow
the truck to co.come to us

Release me

The
Milk
To flow

0nce again
cruise into

The paddock

Again released
Fickle lastik to spark

But to wet the mouths
of children

Don't care but give
that's the way it Is

Away with my udder
I can only just shudder

But Know
My
Milk
shall always

Give

We miss our bobbies,
but we have learned
Must have a mind
and DO

Yet we will yearn

For ever our Bobbie

"ON A WARM MIDSUMMERS NIGHT.
THE STARS FILL THE DEEP, CLEAR SKY.
FOR THE MOON UP ABOVE IS SO WHOLE & WHITE.
AND THE SOFT, TENDER BREEZE FLOWS FREELY BY..."

"SO DEEP WITHIN THIS PEACEFUL SCENE.
I AM FEELING THE PASSIONS OF LIFE, SO COMFORTING.
FOR THE GOODNESS OF ALL ETERNITY.
IS SPARKLING SO BEAUTIFULLY AND ENDLESSLY..."

"IT IS LIKE IM LIVING WITHIN AN EVERFLOWING DREAM.
WHERE ALL THE MAGICK IS GLISTENING, WHERE THE LULLABYES ARE SWEET.
HER WISDOM IS SO DEEPLY EMBRACING THE LIFEFORCE OF SENTIENT BEINGS
AND UPON HER ANCIENT POWERS LIES THE BECOMING OF ALL INFINITY..."

Welcome is the chance to observe
A time for ourselves we reserve
Not separated from ourselves
But swimming into the deepest pool
Down into our own truest belongings
Apart from those who try and rule
Our hearts hunger not to be found
They hunger to hide away and steal
A time to lick our wounds and heal
Welcome is a time to conserve
A time for ourselves we most deserve
