"uttereth" poems
In the multitude of counsellors; safety abounds,
But
ln the multitude of enemies as counsellors;
deceit abounds.
Counsellors whose heart studieth destruction with lips uttering mischief;
Enemies clothed with sheep clothings as friends;
Friends whose tongues uttereth words born in deception.
Counsellors whose mouth darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge;
Enemies made counsellors whose looks appeareth friendly,
Friends whose mouth draweth iniquity by cords of vanity.
Counsellors who utter counsels coated in corruption,
Friends whose mouth worseneth counsel by words without wisdom;
Enemies whose heart pondereth in destruction.
Counsellors whose counsel are coiled in deception,
Friends who by multitudes of words cause you to err;
Enemies whose mouth captivate tender hearts.
Counsellors whose counsel destroy the paths of relationships,
Friends whose conceit counsel to death;
Enemies being enslaved seek to enslave others.
Believe not every counsel neither inculcate every word,
........... They destroy the heart..........
Believe not every friend neither heed to multitudes of words,
........... They enslave the soul............
Believe not every counsellor neither seek counsels from multitudes;
.......... They captive the mind...........
Which counsel shall we inculcate?
Which counsellors shall we believe?
Which counsellors shall we seek?
Inculcate counsels proved by love,
Believe counsellors whose counsel are weighed by truth and peace;
Seek counsellors whose counsel are words of life.
Who shall our counsellors be?
Let counsellors who are genuine and experienced be our guide;
Let counsellors who are higher and honest be our refuge.
Hope you find counsellors whose counsels are candid;
for
lt takes honest counsellors to ensure your safety.

The heavens declare the glory
of God; and the firmament
sheweth his handywork.
2 Day unto day uttereth
speech, and night unto night
sheweth knowledge.
3 There is no speech nor
language, where their voice is not
heard.
4 Their line is gone out
through all the earth, and their
words to the end of the world. In
them hath he set a tabernacle for
the sun.
5 Which is as a bridegroom
coming out of his chamber, and
rejoiceth as a strong man to run a
race.
6 His going forth is from the
end of the heaven, and his
circuit unto the ends of it: and
there is nothing hid from the
heat thereof.
7 The law of the Lord is
perfect, converting the soul, the
testimony of the Lord is sure,
making wise the simple.
8 The statutes of the Lord are
right, rejoicing the heart, the
commandment of the Lord is pure,
enlightening the eyes.
9 The fear of the Lord is clean,
enduring for ever: the judgments
of the Lord are true and righteous
altogether.
10 More to be desired are they
than gold, yea, than much fine
gold: sweeter also than honey and
the honeycomb.
11 Moreover by them is thy servant
warned: and in keeping of
them there is great reward.
12 Who can understand his
errors? cleanse thou me from
secret faults.
13 Keep back thy servant also
from presumptions sins; let them
not have dominion over me: then
shall I be upright, and I shall be
innocent from the great
transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth,
and the meditation of my heart,
be acceptable in thy sight, O
Lord, my strength, and my
redeemer.

Behold, but let it nay an impediment
Be, beauteous babe, my faltering lip,
Because grandiloquence is the very flip
Side, save on the spur of the moment,
Of love; neither my pausing mouth
Consider which seemingly lacks fancy gait
And uttereth its words haltingly straight
Like a verily soaked clumsy lager lout.
Though my solemn tongue pauses, perfect peach,
The lines of my love do make a sublime speech.

A million sandlewood candles from
the quick checkout at Sephora
could not mask what we have
done here. Not all the *****
in the world could seize my
dripping mind, which always
seems to pour down the
drain for you and your
stupid ignorant
wild and lewd
cruel and deliberate
enchanting, invigorating—
I sit behind you in math
class and you hold
his hand.
He met me at East 79th
and fifth,
“I think she’s cheating,” he says.
“What a ***** I say, shaking my head.

Thou steppedst into this world with a purpose,
And it's by HIS Grace for Glory,
Each moment HE hath led thee in HIS Care,
All thro' thy twenty years HE kept thee in HIS *****
Each thought in thy mind is HIS Grace,
Each word thou uttereth is by HIS Power,
Each deed of thine is HIS Will to do,
And thy breath in thee is HIS Gift to seek Eternity.
Thou hast travelled twenty milestones in HIS Care,
And on this day thou hast steppedst into thy 21st milestone on earth,
That thou shall be in HIS Love till reaching Eternity.
And so, thou shall walk in His Footsteps ever,
And HE is God in Christ JESUS WHO is the ONLY WAY into Eternity.
