He Makes My Spirit Grow
Stu Harley Oct 2018
i
know
that
God
is always present
forever timeless
from nothingness,
he created Himself
and
the
world we live in
thus
he is the maker of all things
living and nonliving
from
the
lifeless dust he makes Adam so
then
he breathes
the spirit of life into man
thus
allowed them both
to dwell in the Garden of Eden
he makes a woman helper
for Adam's growth
for what purpose
and
for what reason
God exists from self-creation
The stars in heaven
are the shadow of God
God created himself
out of nothingness
just by saying...be and He made it so
God does not need a reason nor purpose
when something happened
everything sprung forth
God said that I am that I am
and it shall always be until eternity
God's word is sufficient
if we submit and obey to His will
Lord
let me follow your sweet heaven's light
to receive your treasure
He makes my spirit grow

Turning into a light drizzle
Clouds tapping their tambourines

Her magnificent show
Splashing her true colors

A dash of royal purple and some indigo
Well, she knows
How to swing
Her bright lamp
Through all
The prefect seasons

When Love Have Jealous Eyes
Stu Harley Nov 2023
When love has jealous eyes, a storm may brew,
A tempest of emotions, both dark and true.
In the gaze that once held only tender ties,
Now flickers a flame with jealous eyes.

In the shadows of doubt, mistrust may play,
Casting its shadows on a once sunny day.
Yet, in the heart's chamber where love lies,
Conflicting emotions spark in jealous eyes.

A whisper of fear, a pang of concern,
A love once steady now takes a turn.
But in this tempest, where the confusion lies,
Love seeks understanding in jealous eyes.

For jealousy, a mirror to one's own fear,
Reflects insecurities that often draw near.
Yet, in the storm's center, where truth defies,
There's potential for growth in jealous eyes.

So, let love be a balm to soothe the ache,
Communication is the bridge, the bond to remake.
In the tumultuous sea where emotion ties,
Find calm and understanding in jealous eyes.
