THE NEED SUPPLIER
OF SOULS WHO
SEARCH FOR
INNER PEACE
CONSIDER CHRIST
THOUGH MUCH MALIGNED
DISBELIEVED
AND PUT AT NOUGHT
AND IT WAS FOR ALL
WHO HAVE THE NAME
OF PEOPLE
CHURCHES TOO
EXIST TO TELL
TO PEOPLE
ABOUT THIS
THE NEED SUPPLIER

I AM THE FIRST,
HEED MY WARNING!
I AM THE GIST,
DONT TEST MY POWER!!!
DEMONS ARE FEARED,
WITH THEIR SMALL MATCHSTICK FIRE,
MY FLAMES BLUE NOT LIKE THEIRS YELLOW!
INSIGNIFICANT FELLOWS,
PUNY STINKY HUMANS RACE,
DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU FACE?
JUPITER AND SATURN ARE BALLS I PLAY,
NOW YOU BETTER RUN AWAY!

With pupils fixed on the collection plate,
Sweat streaming down a wretched face,
And lethally distended neck veins,
He appealed to the sympathy of his victims,
“God wants us all to be rich!” he cried.
“Cast your bread upon the waters!” someone implored;
Maybe an accomplice, a friend or a fool.
“Amen!” shrieked a woman, lavishly dressed,
As she stutters like an old engine and crumbles to the floor.
Is it I alone who have seen this act,
The false prophet, the woman, and the fool,
All part of a ridiculous plot?
It's just another tale from the swindler’s script.
He echoes again the fib from his lips:
“God wants us all to be rich!”
Did Jesus wear Armani suits and ties,
And sandals made from crocodiles’ hide?
The crowd applauded the exaggerated stunt,
As he frolics, shivers and growls,
Like someone who’s drunk.
Remember the slogan that says: “In God we trust?”
Preserve this notion:
The poor will always be with us.

Once I was an earthly man standing on my own. I thought I just had everything, but yet I stood alone. I had my car, My money, I had my family too. Just one thing I didn't know the devil had me too, He helped me lie, he helped me cheat and steal. He helped me do those earthly things in hopes to make a deal.
Then some people sent my God, showed me where I stood, I would not listen to what they said. I thought I was just too good. But when I was down and left all alone I remembered what God's people said and how to get along, I had to come to the cross just as Jesus did and asked the Lord to forgive my sins just so I could live.
Now I walk and talk with my Lord. Every single day and he gives me what I need when I humble myself and pray.

For your heart aches
your Lord fills the void.
Your Lord lifts you up
when you are down.
For your church family
is all around.
Lifts you up at this
time in your life.
Helping you in all that
you go through.
Each day you need a friend
we are there for you
when it matters.
God watches over you as
he gives you to us to
help get through all
that he has for you.
In all that you do.

Close my eyes my Jesus
Take me under your wings
I know I'm not as perfect as you desire
But i would love to hear the angels sing
My heart is getting weaker and weaker
And I'm just waiting for it to be all over
Will I see your eyes Dear Heavenly King
Or is your glory to bright for me to look in
Then let my eyes be blinded by your glory
For there is nothing on earth here for me
While the pitter and patter after the spoils of life
While they fight over dirt and live in strife
Didn't they hear you when you say
Your going to prepare a place for them for that special day
Why do we hear but not listed
Why have eyes and cannot see
Everything on this earth will be as dust
Yet we struggle and envy and be jealous and filled with lust
REMOVE ME! Oh God, I beg thee so
For this earth has made my spirit low
But everyday you open my eyes, I say thank you with tears in my eyes
But who can fool the Almighty one, you know my words are a lie
No more dream, no more sleep, no more desire to eat
Just a desperate desire my Jesus to lay at your feet

There is some pain
that will go away when we pray
But there is another kind of pain
that will go away
only when we forgive ourself
or someone else
Forgive is what we have to do
in order to heal
Only God can give us peace
so we must forgive
Forgive will take away a lot of pain
to live our life in a peaceful way
To forgive is to get rid
of all anger, hatred and bitterness
and allow the love of God
to dwell in us

About this poem:
I wrote this when I had to forgive someone and I really didn't understand 'why' my heart was still heavy. Only when I was able to release those emotions (of anger) I was able to feel 'light' and 'free'. Then I was able to truly forgive.

I am Goddess
The shape of my body
Compliments the shape of the earth
In the elemental form
From which it sprang
Earthy and sensual
I bear the mark of countless other women
before me
And of all women
Yet to come
From the swell of my breasts to the curve of my hips
I beckon and entice
My scent reaching out
Tentatively, swirling, winding its way toward ecstasy, as the sound of my voice calls forth memories long forgotten and dreams not yet made
I sing the song of a million voices, all joined from within
Calling out to the cosmos and beyond

Dreams don't want to stop
Twilight breaking dawn
Waking in your arms
Surrending my life
Giving up some ghosts
Receiving what now
Stop Wait Not Ready
I want better life
Living on the edge
Dark meets your light
Shine on empty space
Illuminate me
Don't forsake me now
I am still alive
Help me to survive
All I need is you
Standing by my side
Holding tight my hand
Together we go
Dancing into time
No more life wasting
Peaceful easy love
Touching both our hearts
Sharing all we are
Feeling much better
Joining up with you
Never alone now

First time writing Haiku write It's cool.....

Today, I woke up feeling physically ‘crappy’, and the mood is still persisting…,
That’s correct, it is just a mood…,
And, because, I normally feel great physically, I start panicking when this ‘crappiness’ grips me, and I start thinking ‘wonky’…,
I’m starting to come out of it just a tad, but not by much, mind you, maybe 5% or so, so, let’s take what I say with a huge pinch of salt,
I may renege on some of it tomorrow, or next year, or whatever…
Anyways, it is late afternoon, and I begin reading one of my favourite spiritual books in the hopes that I may get some ‘enlightenment’,
I was lucky, I hit upon a fantastic stretch in the book, and my noggin starts workin’,
I get up to get a drink of water from the kitchen, and there was Molly, the beloved’s mutt,
It is an uncharacteristically cold and rainy winter’s day in Limassol, today,
As I’m sipping the water, I look down at Molly,
And I thinks to myself:
“God, why would anyone choose to incarnate as this mutt,
When we have so many other endless choices,
For that matter, why did I choose to incarnate as me, when I coulda’ have appeared as Sean Connery or something…”,
Although who knows, I may have dome Sean Connery in some distant past,[the equivalent thereof, anyway…, lol…, or ‘future’],
My train of thought gravitates back to Molly,
Lowly hound, serving the beloved…,
Aaahhh, that’s a clue,
Molly is ‘serving’ the beloved, and when I think of the utter pleasure the beloved gets from Molly,
I start to thinks further,
I thinks of the incredible love she has for Molly,
What constant companionship Molly provides,
What joy she gives to the beloved as she accepts a dog biscuit from her…,
“My god…,”, me thinks, I could not give such unselfish love by incarnating as the ‘lowly’ Molly in a million years of trying,
I have played nurse to a friend or two and nearly ended up jumping off the proverbial 13th floor…,
So I bend down and look long and deep into Molly’s eyes,
And I swear, I thought I caught a glimpse of the utter divinity in Molly, and it choked me up and I wanted to weep uncontrollably,
But, my damn proprietary stopped me, I will weep when I’m alone,
Not sorrowful tears, mind you, but tears of incredible and ineffable joy,
Tears of liberation from my enigmatic existence…,
As I realized intensely that Molly was living an extraordinarily complex life thru serving the beloved,
And I was humbled, and I was grateful to Molly, ‘the lowly mutt’ for the cosmic lesson she taught me today…
