I praise The Lord
For the suffering
That I have been through
It has opened my consciousness
cleared my vision
To see the beauty
Of this world
I never knew
Fear of life & future death has died
True courage is always by my side
I sit here by the lake
It is a windy day
Absorbing peace
Listening to waves beating the rocks
Hearing blissfulness
In the sounds of the blackbirds squawks
My mind can scarcely go back
To those days in the past
When I never knew of such peace
Sitting watching blackbirds
Omnivorous nesting in the trees
Again I must thank
The Father for all
The strife that I have been through
That has led me to this joyous point
I pray others reach too

Read in The Wild

Oh
Man
I ask you to
Stay
Ominous in the Sky

And I fly and I fly : . . : : : :. . . .::
Don't cry

I'm not affraid
I'm not affraid

To be lost inside your thoughts
You're reading my words
The ocean is waiting
Raging inside

Read in the wild
Read in the wild

Awwwwwwghhhhhhh
My name is so easy to love
And it Feels like falling
Awaiting for a mild
Air strings wilted
Winds of time

Dreams

Dreams
Defined

Deep into Lungs
Deep into Lungs
Flowery secrets lurk like
Molecules Merging

Lovers into the bright bloom

Both luminous
Both luminous

Writing these love letters
To each other
To bloom

Write me a love letter
With an invisible
Ink and a Magick
Figurative

Pen
A
Pen

Friend
Lover
Romance bourne

Look Up and See Jesus

Apr 2015 M

John Stevens

Look Up and See Jesus

(c) Dec. 15-2005 John Stevens

(V1)
When trouble comes around you
And you don’t know where to turn.
Look up and see Jesus standing there.
He will take all your sorrows
And give you peace within.
Just look up and see Jesus standing there.

(V2)
When love seems so distant
And you feel lost and alone.
Look up and find Jesus waiting there.
His arms are open wide for you
To take you as His own.
Just look up and find Jesus waiting there.

(V3)
When hope has all but gone
And darkness closes in.
Look up and find Jesus kneeling there.
He is reaching down to lift you up
From the pit of despair.
Look up and find Jesus kneeling there.

(V4)
When joy comes upon you
And you don’t know who to thank.
Look up and see Jesus smiling there.
His grace does surround you
His mercy brings you through.
Just look up and see Jesus waiting there.

(Chorus)
Look up and see Jesus
He waits for you to call His name.
Look up and see Jesus standing there.
Look up and see Jesus
Receive His gift of love for you.
Look up and see Jesus standing there.

(tag)
He will take you in His arms of love
And give you peace within.

I am posting this for a young friend. It is the words to a song from years back.
Still good today and tomorrow

I am no...

Apr 2015 M

Adam Miles Christopher Bell

I am no...

I am no poet, yet I write poems.
I am no writer, yet I write stories.
I am no hippy, yet I believe in world peace.
I am no politician, yet I have my opinions.
I am no god, yet I create.

Italic words are words I need more of a reminder on.
I encourage all of you to choose a positive word (or multiple) from each letter of the alphabet and write it down. Remind yourself every day what a remarkable person you are.
Love yourself. <3

*Agh, didn't get on all day today, but came home to find that this was selected as poem of the day and am so flattered and honored. Thank you so much to everyone for the kind comments. I'm so glad you all liked it. <3
