All the rich men say
I think I'll plow my hobby garden today
Then I'll clean and wax my hobby 57 Chevrolet

We'll drink champagne
And play cards a lot
While out sailing on our hobby yacht

I wouldn't want anyone's feelings to be hurt
So I'll show up to shake hands on Sunday
At my hobby church

Then we'll make reservations at our hobby restaurant
We're so humble and modest
Our hobbies always look so nonchalant

We'll always be know as man and wife
Though we're not married to each other
Cause it's easier to be married to a hobby life

What awaits on the other side
After death takes one's breath away
Billions have taken that last ride
Yet what awaits no one can say

A belief is just a belief
It may provide some with solace
And give a measure of relief
But it's not a proof in this case

All persons will know the answer
When death comes knocking on their door
That's all that can be said thus far
And how it may be evermore


(iambic tetrameter)

Imagine when you were born, when you came here, you had no knowledge, nothing to
fear,. it was all an adventure, a wonderous ride, amazing things from every side, oh sure
you were told you cant do this, you cant do that, but it was not serious from where you sat
and then you were five and you started school, you started to learn to obey the rule, you were told about God and how wonderful he was, but he'd send you to hell, well, just because, he could, unless you did what you should, now you need to start to follow some rules, lose who you are, line up with the fools, its time to condition cause its the tradition,
Just dont ask a question, allow it to be, I was once you, I want you to be me, you can never stand up you need to sleep,, let me show you the rest of the sheep they are waiting for you to stand in your line, yes over there, thats just fine.
We will round you up when we have no need, make sure there's no food, nothing to feed, a starving nation that Band Aid cant assist, you wont be rembered, you wont even be missed!
So, can you not see? we are all born equal?,, its you and its me, noone owns the earth or space, we are but the human race, I own my life, I own today, its not for anyone else to say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To use a different metaphor who were you before? before you were this you, were you another U2? and will you be you after this you? And how many you's have there been?
How many you's will there be? And if you are the only you, well, then you be you and I'll be me too.

In this house
a cathedral
to the angels
I see light
on elevated stone
high above
the baptismal font
that has washed
generations clean
in the great hall
as I follow closely
the custom
of the liturgy
the thurible swinging
swinging to deliver
frankinscence to heaven
so may they rest
so may they rest

Who told you THAT story of life? THAT STORY cuts like a knife, a fable , you are not able , ,,, to resist,, takes over your life?
And you cease to exist on your own?, you need help from above? you need love?, to protect you from what? something you forgot?
Did you not exist in some form before you were here? Of course you did, let go the fear!, its all about you, ,,,, its all about me too, we are all connected, unfortunatly subejected, and sometimes rejected, there are soo many many ideas of what THIS could be, its really simple ultimately, it IS about you and it IS about me!
The End

Sparkling crystal flakes floating
Down from Heaven above
Covering all things with a coating
Of white showing God’s love

Peaceful quiet prevails around
The moon shining on the blanket of white
As God’s love has muffled all sound
Reflecting sparkling diamonds in the light

Listening to the sounds of the night
You can hear Angels singing in the sky
Celebrating the Glory of God’s might
Gossamer wings softly beating up high

This is the night that God was born on earth
They are celebrating His triumphant arrival
That night long ago when Mary gave birth
As the Old Testament foretold in the Bible

Glory – Glory on High Heaven and Earth
Our King and Prince of Peace has arrived
He has come to give us the miracle of rebirth
For Immanuel “God with Us” is alive!

Tyrants, ogres and ghouls
Witches, warlocks and fools
Parading throughout history replete
Preying on humanity and the weak
Enforcing laws and rules as they speak
No man or woman mandating insane claims
Has the right to proliferate nefarious games
Where all people are the enemy of the few
Hunted, accosted and trapped like a shrew
A reckoning is coming and it’s on the rise
All foretold by the ancients and the wise
Monsters, dragons and demon beasts
Supping on life blood in ritual feasts
Know that the ending of delusion is soon
The giants are heavily knapped and hewn
By angelic armies powerful and strong
Hurled into the fire where they belong
The egregious villains are destined for hell
Ending the stronghold of their cursed spell

CHRISTMAS ( Wishing all the lovely Poets on CS)
Author: lilygold76
C is for the Christ Child lying swaddled on hay,
H is for the Happiness His birth brought on this day,
R is for Redeemer who came to save the world,
I is for Immanuel,"God with Us," always,
S is for the Shepherds who came to worship him,
T is Tidings of joy the angel brought to them,
M is for His Mother Mary, the handmaid of the Lord,
A is for Adoration by the three wise men from the East,
S is our Savior so peacefully asleep.

About this poem:
Thoughts on Christ's birth.

The land covered in fresh white snow
The Sun shining across it causing it to glow
With tiny promising crystals the colors of a rainbow
Sustaining life through water that flows

The world was silent in adoration
As it awaited for its new King in anticipation
The new promise had come to earth
When one night in a stable a Virgin gave birth

He brought the promise of eternal life for those
Who believe that after He died He arose
A new Covenant had been born sent by God
To pave a path for all who accepted his gift of love

Water becomes a rainbow as the sun shines through
Now the New Covenant continues that promise too
God promised to send a Savior to save us from sin
If we drink of His water – we too will be born again
