Ukraine was the subject in the year 2014
NATO did a lot of convincing and planning
closer and closer to Russia was the plan
and so the conflict has begun

2016 Trump in the US got elected
he assured peace all over the horizon
as a matter of fact now we know
no war or invasion took place in his reign

2020 the democrats stole the election
the puppets installed stupid Biden and claimed they won
look at him, what a senile pathetic old man
and so Russia attacked Ukraine again

here we are so anxious as to what's next
will Ukraine prevail or get blown into pieces?
in the meantime victims are dying
and the world just watch don't do anything

I'm thinking WW3 has just begun
it seems to me, we'll never really learn
humanity is doomed again and again
ah greed and power it always win

wake up I say, let's do something
we'll unite our vigor and strength
let's fight these fascist and socialist
let's pray to God that this will end.




About this poem:
It looks like there's no end to human sufferings because of power and greed

There's a presentation of Dr. Wendell Meirshuemer explaining why this invasion happened

I didn't mean for you to leave
And so my apologies
I only wanted you to heed the rules
And don't flood this place

I am aware you're so enthused
And that's a very good sign
But keep them in your journal
Then post it one at a time

I assume you didn't read the rules
And therefore you didn't know
Now that you get the point
You must come back and keep the show

I'm sure most of us were affected
But I'm the one who had the guts
To express it as it is so you would realize
Now I know I'm in the wrong and I apologize

I do reiterate most of us seek refuge
From the shadows of the dark
Poetry Corner is a safe place
And you should come right back

I pray

Woe not on us
Oh mankind of greatness
May all worship and be adored
Amongst the nature's best
Non compares to your sacredness

Winners we are all
On this journey of short life
Make it joyful in stride
Akin to moon and stars
Nothing dims your bright light

Women here and everywhere
On all walks of life, all over
May this day given to us
A testament that we're loved
Not only today but forever

Happy International Women' s Day

THE WORLD IN DARKNESS

Darkness has overcome the world
Uncertainty rules our minds
It seems the goodness in our hearts vanished
Selfishness thrive in abundance
Hasn't the Lord assured us all the time?
That all of these will come to pass
There will be tribulations at first
But in the end the chosen ones will stand?
Why be afraid then?
Why do we let our fear and panic reign?
Just be ready and steadfast
There is nothing we can do but trust
It is only through our faith that salvation is attained
We should know that, if we remained... loyal Only to Him
And followed His path.

I reckon sins got hold of the best of most of us
I know I have been a sinner for sometime
But I know, too, that I changed..I am sure He knows
How I kept my promise of not sinning again, and again..
And so with earnest in my mind, heart and in my soul
I deeply, regrettably wanting to carry the cross
He bore for all of us
And if in the end, I am still one of the Lost..I will still hope,
I will be found...because I always believed...
He is the Only Way and the Life...
Our Lord Jesus..

Amen.

war the game of power,
the toy of the greedy ones
it's vicious and heinous
it annihilates mankind
history witnessed this atrocities
but man never learns

why?

here are some causes
I know there sre more
but the popular ones
they're hard to ignore

some say to reduce population
some say it's for fun
what's with all the profits
from selling nukes and guns

ah..what about the people
did they die in vain?
or were they just poor victims
and simply forgotten?

well here we are again
with Russia against Ukraine
much like always
nothing ever change

victims here and there
refugees everywhere
would you be so kind for them
and say a little prayer?

now I can say more
but I feel distressed
my heart is bleeding
and yet I am helpless

one thing I can say if I held the key
I would stop this madness
make this world safe and free
for you and me, and the whole humanity

Yesterday's Sorrow
Author:(lindsyjones)


sometimes I'm amazed
at how stale and stubborn
I have become
and even out of sync with time
but then since you left
I don't have any reason
to keep track of moment
that comes and goes
I din't even know
summer is gone
fall, too, is now buried
deep in the snow
somehow I am anticipating
the new birth of tomorrow
but here I am still nursing
in my yesterday's sorrow
I am never wishing
that our past would come back
.... no!
it's just that I wish
the wound heals
and my mind forgets
all these pains and heartaches
so I can rest in peace.

The Priceless Gift of Nature


Amidst the darkness we are going through
there is something that is constant in our hearts
that is the priceless beauty of nature
That is always within our sight

Let us give thanks to our Lord.
His Art is for us to Behold.

Amen

I'm a sinner

I'm a sinner, was and always will be
Not by choice but weakness sometimes reign over me

I seek not your judgment but if you must

Please lay out the truth and don't be so harsh

I don't wish justification for my weakness

I only wish to earn for your forgiveness

And when it's time for me to lay down to rest

Say a little prayer for me to earn His forgiveness

Note: I wish to live a life that's sinless but we're human, flawed and imperfect. It's far easier to fall from the path of righteousness than not. While our intentions may always be to do the right thing, we somehow become weak. I try to follow the path of being good and live according to His will.
Having said that, I humbly seek forgiveness to all of you my friends and relatives with whom I have come short of your expectations.

So help me God.
I humbly submit my will to You.
Amen

if only I could

silence I invoke
to muffle the explosion of my pain
piercing the very core of my soul
our memories
is now
like a double blade knife
piercing my fragile heart


my thoughts are drowning
in the ocean of my tears
I would do anything
anything to let you know
you have always been here
beside me
even in your absence

your memories never left me.

but if could forget you
I would
if only I could

WE WILL BE WITH YOU ALWAYS

clinging to our bodies, a most potent poison
on such a massive force humanity seems in oblivion
rendering all of us unprepared and hopeless
unprecedented and never been this helpless

could it be that it is really the end?
foretold and prophesied from previous generations?
or this is an act of carelessness, sort of random?
pushing us to feel how it is to be doomed?

alas, the world seems scurrying
praying and kneeling begging for mercy
hypocritical in a far reaching effect
i can feel it, looks very temporary

it reminds me when 9/11 happened
the same situation and the same pattern
before that event the churches were so empty
then- the wails and fears it seemed like eternity

it came to pass, we have survived
again, back to normal like it always was
same old habits of going astray
and again, back to ordinary ways

then this virus came, what a surprise
we are helpless again, this time it is more than that
fear and panic seems the rule of the day
what do we do? again...kneel and pray

oh yes, oh Lord we ask
for the last time, please do forgive us
in Your Hands, please don't make us astray
this time, we will be with You, Always.

IN THE NAME OF OUR FATHER, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT

we lay down to you our trust
to you we offer, our soul, body and heart
for You alone Lord can truly save us
not anyone, not any force but YOU our God.

Amen.

humanity, we're losing it

I dedicate this to all victims of war, specifically UKRAINE, The newest victim.



humanity where are we?
in full gear, fully armed
we are on the war path
and directly heading to be damned
Kyiv a city of beauty and light
accosted by the atrocities
of what is wrong and unjust

have we gone berserk
have we lost our minds?
have we embraced the dark
and forget there is light?
oh what an excuse, imperialist
here and there:
making the rich live in decadence
while the poor and wretched live lower than dirt?

you have forgotten
this day has been prophesied
it has been written and destined
alas, the eighty percent in jubilation
thinking it is their redemption
perhaps, it is..

but oh no, this is the mark
the progression of the "haves"
at the expense of the have "nots"
sure, laugh at me, I face your contempt
it is my fault for not standing up
as you remain silent to my pleas

the time has come
let us face and dance
your God and my God,
is one and the same

but my right to live,
my freedom,
doesn't make any difference
we're all born naked
and back to dust no more no less
one and the same..rotten
and when dead
buried in the same dirt.





Thanks all for reading andor commenting.

peace be with you
as you pass me by
I try to look away
for if, I would glance
a single look in your eyes
even as my mind opposes
I'd fall down on my knees
and ask you to stay
for just one day
because, it's all what it takes
to let you know
the gratefulness
living inside my heart
of all you've done

you realize
I've changed
back to who I was
humble, but most of all
mindful and thankful
one more time
on this last chance

it's you who laid down
this path I now walk on
a strong and solid ground
and I'm blessed
and so with tears of joys
falling off my eyes
please know
I'm forever grateful


so go on, pass by
all I want is a smile
just a glance
and you'd know
my heart sings
peace be with you
always..
for I never left.
