DARKNESS TO LIGHT

The sky grew dark and gray
The earth and trees began to sway
All living creatures trembled in fear
As the end of the world felt near

The scent of blood and death was in the air
Cries of pain and agony were heard
Carried on the winds causing great fear
Not knowing the cost of forgiveness came dear

Mankind’s Light of the World died that day
And the darkness of souls were portrayed
Down into the Tomb of Hell the Light was placed
The Sacrificial Lamb of Grace

The Light of the World was in darkness for 2 days
Despair and hopelessness of all rampaged
Without the Light feeling bewildered and lost
Watching the Tomb of Hell covered in moss

The morning of the third day
The Light of the World again shown to display
That the Tomb of Hell was open and bare
A miracle had just happened there

The soul had risen from sin’s Hell
The Light of the World had arose to tell
All had been forgiven their sins
If they ask for it through Him

Thus Mankind’s physical body dies
But his spirit will live and rise
For the Lamb of Grace was the ultimate sacrifice
We have his gifts of Light and Eternal life

The Light of the World was snuffed out
For 2 days and nights in darkness and doubt
The third morning it shone again
To Light the World and Heavens without sin

About this poem:
4/9/2023: Another Easter has arrived and he has given this World so many chances. Will we have one more year of chances? Orig. message: Recently saw the movie "Risen" and it inspired me to write this poem. I usually like to write something light and more about nature. However, Palm Sunday - Good Friday - and Easter are coming up and I wanted to do something in honor of all the suffering my Lord and Savior went through and just how big a deal it was for all of Mankind. Thank you for reading even if it wasn't quite your cup of tea.

flowers

Oh flowers of days.

There beauty leave us by night.

The beautiful rose how thorns an
All are beautiful.

Smells of roses intoxify me

The seas breeze marries my coastal nest.

Seasons come ,seasins go.

But flowers bloom even if others don't.

FREEDOM STAR

Have you seen a bright star, in the night sky
Leaves you breathless, escapes a single sigh

Single and alone, warning of times when sad
Those special moments, when a heart is glad

Focus on beauty, crystal clear and bright
Never to be hidden, or stay out of sight

Like a pulsing heartbeat, attention draws
Makes inner emotions, rise until they soar

Exploding into a universe, it was set free
Humans needing reassurance, look up.... and see......

Its over

Someone so familiar just to be around,
But the silence between us deafens every other sound.

Courteous pleasantries so obviously fake,
Were dancing around each other performing a silent swan lake.

I dont know anymore if it was me or you,
Both locked in our own solitary confinement not knowing what to do.

A lighthouse on a desolate rocky shore,
The thunder of crashing waves, sea and rain batter its ancient wooden door

A beacon in the darkness perched high above the spiral stairs,
Illuminating the shadows and your angry stares.

The light forever turning like hands upon a clock,
I try to find the real you in the shadows of the lighthouse rock.

I remember all the happy moments and the light behind your eyes,
Now Im living in their shadows exchanging pleasantries and lies.

I want to ask the question to know what went wrong,
Too scared to listen to the answer to hear the fat ladies song.

So we sit in silence two grandmasters studying the board,
We both pretend nothings wrong but know that were both bored.

Bored with each other, bored with where we are,
I need to say its over but your smile is like the morning star.

It could be just for a moment or it could last all day,
Like an addict I take what Im given and forget what I wanted to say.

Light reaching

Sadness is the seed of happiness.
Feed it with the attention it needs and nurture it with a tender heart.
Break its hard shell and it can be transformed from a small buried spec into a light reaching life.

I Was Only 19

I was 19 and in the prime of my young life
I was lookin4 you one day to be my wife
You were a Sth Efrican spunkybum
And sure i was liked by your mum

We worked together then moved in together
We thought that we were in love
I was only 19

I played football with the men
And hung out with mates back then
I gave that up to be with you
Coz remember that day
When you said .. i love you

Anyway .. to cut a long poem short...


We woke up one morning
You said you were crook
I felt like sh*t coz not by your look

I felt so bad that you were sad
So i went off to work
To earn some money so both to be glad

All day at work i thought of you
And all i could think of was you
I called you on the phone during the day
You answerd and said gidday

I asked if you were ok
You said i'm fine and enjoy your day
I was sad that you were crook
And could'nt wait to get home for a look

The siren for knock off time went
I was only 19
But was the longest day of my life

Anyway

I jumped into my car
And could'nt wait to see you
I stopped off and bought you some flowers
Coz since i saw you last
It was hours

Anyway yada yada yada ...

When i drove up to our place
Your dad was out front with a mean face
There was a small truck with in it your belongings
And i thought WTF???

As he was bigger than me
He would'nt let me near thee
Until this day 20/6/16
I still don't know why and now i'm 53


ps, i'm so sorry ... i was only 19

Australia: Race Relations

I think of the Aborigine's last plight
To tell of the Rainbow Serpent* in its might
Wherein the ancient dream time lies your soul
And the strength of ancient myth becomes your all.

For my young country Australia -
I tell of my dismay and love for her
I sing my all and in my praise for you
Hear the ancient haunting rhythm of didgeridoo.

Generations old and lost in time
Rock paintings in the Kimberley sublime
Dot paintings are the desert's oldest art
The living Dreamtime spirit at its heart.

One day they'll be when black and white unite
To recognize the black man in his fight
To seek the white man's peace in destiny
We must first make peace with the Aborigine.

To put the Constitution right now in its laws
To love the black man instead of to abhor
And to the Stolen Generation, a treaty give
Will make our country stronger - live and let live.

To lift the black man up with helping hand
Like Gough Whitlam ** unto you did pour his sand***
From white to black we still have far to go
From black to white forgiveness we must know.

About this poem:
* The main deity in Aboriginal mythology
** 21st Prime Minister of Australia (1972 - 1975)
*** A symbolic gesture giving the Aboriginal people "back" their land
and the start of the modern "land rights" movement

**** I wish to acknowledge, and pay my respects, to the traditional custodians, of this land, the Aboriginals. I also pay my respects, to Aboriginal Elders, past, present, and emerging.

C.S, Poetry

we are a family here for many reasons
some together for many seasons
others only stop for a while
to place a mark or a tile
but the mosaic we build is whole
a thing with a larger soul
we have seen love,marriage,loneliness and pain
others who only who wish to gain
but when show your colors here
people will great you without a fear

RESIDENCE IN MY HEART

You have a residence, in my heart
That internally, feeds the frozen parts.
Apart of me that's distant & cold.
But has no resistance,
to the warmth you hold.

You have a possession,
Of my mind.
That occupies memories,
Severed & re-aligned

Apart of me that shivers & shakes
The dark place I hide, when I can't
Escape.
That small beam of light,
That penetrates through
My conscious reminder
Of me, loving you
That brings me back, free & anew

You have a spirit, that connects
This fuel
That's fights the anger, when
This world seems amused
It lifts the shackles & battles
My tears
The reason why fate, keeps us near.

As long as the sun radiates our blue skys
Before the moon smirks it's good nights
There in this heart, you will reside

Don't mention it...........

I can't seem to find the words
To express what i need to say
So i'm just going to wing it
And let the keys have there way
I won't mention i have been way to busy
And have trouble finding time
To share those precious moments
You know to be sublime
Or that touch that you miss
When you come home sore and sad
And I'm caught up in my ego
For my day was just as bad
I won't mention all the hours
That i spend at my work
To keep the pressure down
So i won't look like a jerk
Or the fact that I feel lazy
When our day off rolls around
And you're out in the garden
And I'm ironing out my frown
I 'spose what i"m trying to say
In a way that suits me best
Is I'm sorry for an attitude
That's born from lack of rest
But in my defence i'll just note
That these moments that you need
Are never far from my mind
Just tangled in the weed
The jungle of my thoughts
Forever a burden in my life
Can never surpass the beauty
Of you my beautiful loving wife........
