AMAZING MYSTERY

 
Father you made the stars,
So far away we know by sight
Though we reach for it we cannot grab
It's a reminder of the treasure we have inside
Though stars are far away, you never are
Your spirit resides in human vessels bound
The sound of your love resounds in the depths of our heart
The sun is high, its creator down
He shines from within, our lives reveal
Planets are beyond, where eyes do not reach
Our lives are threads unshaken off your grip
You bind, you weave, you are the fabric of all being
When heavenly wonder we cannot gaze
Give us a reminder through eyes that unveils
Man is a little, little lower than the angels
But he is a recipient of amazing grace you gave
And when our little minds stutter,
Give us songs each day,
So we may praise and remember your name
If the stars, planets & sun soon fade
God is here, in our heart the only treasure that remains
Never fading, never changing upholding us,
Though we be of a mortal frame.

DOWNPOUR

Joshua meador rainy windy day Shivering branches scares fleeing birds Waving clothes seeks The cozy corner of a wardrobe Palm trees block against the wind The sky pulls a curtain of blackness Fleeing kids, jumping Josh jams James Litters of rubbish terrified by drops Groaning doors and clapping windows Closing doors closes stalls Noisy roofs and flowing streams Across the street we see a wetting floor Speaking sky yells out thunder Fright and comfort Cool and noise Just another wet day on a suppose Sunday Paul Aremooluwa Copyright Content       2016 Next Poem

LONELY HOBBIES

Within dark, loneliness My company the wind Every glass painted, Images of him Every mirror tainted, Reflections his Walls Echoes chants humming silence Hide and seek He is my thoughts Shattered, Glass and crash His picture frame Ordered, By shaky hands Dark sky draws near The moon reminds He isn't here I grow teary eyes They pick above Shinny tiny gems In shadowy nights I stab the sand with finger and hearts I sprawl on tiles Memories linger From his clothes Arise his haunting smell The spell of him Enchanting I Till I knot his ties Cherishing the hands That knot them once The bathroom wall Reminds, Sparkling his smile I watched him go So went my smile Till he's home These hobbies will I For what is love With little or no despair.

Psalm 701

Song and prayer of Saints 1 Thou hast cleansed our eyes and it cannot behold iniquity. 2 Thou hast purged our minds from strange imaginations and our thoughts from sinful meditations. 3 Surely, thy grace hath made us loathe sin and every unrighteousness: 4  Our lips thou hast touched with thy fiery coal; profanity is an abomination us and we detest the way of lying. 5 Your fear is our inspiration, therefore we hate wickedness. 6 Thou hath made us to know your paths, O Lord your righteousness is exceedingly great. 7  We will praise thee more and more for in your salvation there is exceeding joy: 8  Our feet shall dance and our lips will sing, for thou alone art holy. 9 Teach us O Lord, and keep us in remembrance of your great name everyday. we will lift our hands to thee, our soul doth bless thee, indeed our soul doth bless thee. 10  We will not wickedly depart from our God, yea we will not go astray; thy Spirit hath strengthened us, tho...
