No Excuses

No Excuses

Are you at the edge
trying to get into the healing pool?
You have tried to tip over
But there remained unmoved.
Have angels stired the waters for you
to make then holy?
But still felt trapped by your circumstance?
I am sure you have wondered 
why you must linger
and suffer while everyone else jumps in
before you.

Did you try rolling over?
Try getting closer
one inch at a time each day?
Or are you stuck with your excuses
that block your blessings
stops you from making it in?
Has time been robbed from you
because you hesitate?

Do not fear
take up your bed and be of good cheer.
You will be restored and realigned.
You will get back your time.


The Value of a Seed

The Value of a Seed

Look in my hand,
what you see is a seed.
This seed I hold though must be freed 
to live in its potential.

This seed,
will become a tree
that will one day bear fruits
and those fruits too
will also have seeds - 
potential trees,
if only you can see
more than what is before you
if only you can see
not what is 
but what could be.

Now it is tiny and useless it seems
hard and of little significance even.
But if you plant
and water it,
this seed will exceed
even your vision of what it can be.

The Coconut

The Coconut 

Like manna
it fell
a fruit offered in perfect love
fit to feed the multitude
sent from above.
Living water
to quench the driest of throat.
It flowed plentifully
cracked just so
so I may go
and get its life essence
to relieve the distress of my soul.
As the clear, pure, sweet water slide down
it left a permanent trail
of such comfort
that now I can exhale
receive many blessings only each sip can unfold. 

Choose Your Character

Choose Your Character

No author to write you in
or playwright to make you shine or dim
you can choose who you are 
from deep within.
You are your author, playwright and poet
you know your love language
and the code only you and only you
knowest.
In each chapter you choose your setting
VIP or the popular stand
only you can navigate either one
and decide who else will go along the stands.
The scenes may change
Living
eating
resting 
rejuvenating 
your Garden lands.
There you control the temperature
lighting, props and how the seasons arrange.
You are a literary craftsman
and your life is your masterpiece
so with it you must engage,

Control: What You Do

Control: What You Do

Can you shape the universe
with the thoughts of your mind
bend shapes out of shape
and suspend time?

Can you make the clouds
burst forth their tears
and wash away
all those wasted years?

Can you see beyond your tomorrows
make the future bright
and sing sweetlullabyes
that will let you wake up in light?

Can you forget those steps
that took you to hell
that made it necessary
for you to reprent?

Can you can you
change your world
by taking this bittersweet land
and mould them with your hands?

Cup of Suffering

Cup of Suffering

This cup has blood on it
the stench of fear
and dispair
reels hovac on it
terrifying it
into submission.
This cup has seen storms
and strive
that has made dents in it
dents as wide as the ocean 
as deep as the deepest chasm.
This cup has drowned many-
a-sorrows
many-
a-tears.
This cup while full
promises abundance
a fee for your suffering.
This cup promises healing,
salvation
another day to drink and be alive.
This cup is blessed
by the carrier of the light.

From A Quiet Place

From A Quiet Place

From a quiet place
discern and learn
process and unlearn
stop pleasing
start leading
never be led.
The enemy is in your head
you must vanquish it there
then without fear
leap from that quiet place
and brandish your Atlantis Spear.
