Poems of Learning
---------------------------------------------------------------------
From one Heart to Another
An act of humility,
Of a washing of feet,
And a cleansing of the soul thru baptism,
Within an example set From one Heart to Another,
A true blessing,
Of a breaking of bread,
And a drinking of the fruit of the vine,
Within a sharing From one Heart to Another,
A known betrayal,
Of a piece of bread dipped in broth,
And given as a sop,
Within a personal pain and sorrow From one Heart to Another,
A New Commandment,
Of a gift to love one another,
And the love that was from Jesus,
Within a love From one Heart to Another,
Jesus was an individual,
Of an Existence From God,
And relying on Himself Alone,
Within the Spiritual Grace From one Heart to Another.
For to love on the praise of men more than the praise of God,
May fill our churches with lies From one Heart to Another.
-----------------------------------------------------
Steps of Life
As a treasure of breath,
Hold dear to the loved ones,
Be the best,
To one another,
Do good,
To yourself,
Stop fast,
To destruction,
Protect the one,
That needs a Saviour,
Hold back,
For the brave,
Steps of Life,
Gift of love,
Life from God.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Are You
Are You the happy laughter I hear between friends,
Or Are You the angry voice raised in protest during a dispute,
Are You the gentle rhythm upon my roof during a summer rain,
Or Are You the storm swirling the seas in a wild tempest of emotion,
Are You the sweet smell of wild flowers given as a gift,
Or Are You the taker for all selfish reasons,
Are You the gleam in the eyes of parents,
Or Are You the harshness of cruel abuse,
Are You the life we hold onto so dearly to enjoy,
Or Are You the mask of death waiting around the unsuspecting corner,
Are You the good within giving to everyone
Or Are You the tight fisted oppressor of authority,
We make or break our world,
We guide our steps toward our destiny,
We build our towers to succeed in life,
We make many good ideas of the scriptures within our churches,
We extend our knowledge to improve our fate,
And we believe all roads lead to Rome.
For this is within Christ,
The Judgment of God,
And the ambivalence of one another.
-------------------------------------------------
Just Between Us
This therapist gives such good advice,
“Go buy a blouse-
Be with other housewives-
To ease your mind”,
But the joke is ours,
Men do not understand,
At times,
When women like us,
Need a caring alliance,
And a good ear,
Thanks to God,
We search,
Until we find a soul,
We can talk to,
Then we find each other,
So Sister Dear,
Have a Happy Birthday,
And this is,
Just Between Us,
He can go KEEP his blouse.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A New Way
Lost are my heartaches,
No more are my sorrows,
Happiness is now a way of life,
With me,
New sights are within my good-byes,
Gone are the users,
Of my life,
Try and see God,
Time will create A New Way,
For my life,
I will be set free one day,
God will know when,
Do the best now,
With me.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
To Trust in God
Decisions,
Upon your heart,
Who knows,
How to perceive,
God’s Will,
Sometimes,
One person,
Will lead the other,
As a guide,
From God,
Then,
All the world,
Will turn,
In accordance,
Within each other,
Belief,
To Trust in God,
In all things,
From the soul,
Then God will be Our Leader.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The LORD is My God
Protection from God,
Is the design of Our LORD,
Not our power,
Nor our wisdom,
Can will our control,
Insight is a given favour,
Not to be ruled,
By payment from others,
The LORD is My God,
This strength,
Is of God alone.
Do not be confused,
Of false thoughts.
------------------------------------------------------------
Saturday – Sunday
Back to church,
Relies on common sense,
Not to accept everything,
As true to our word,
We must be aware of what is said,
For feelings are good,
Continuous thoughts,
Of how everything grows,
Thru the teachings,
From Our Lord,
Now we must foresee,
The Book of Genesis,
Realizing when Our LORD rested,
Brings us back to The Word,
To glorify Saturday as The Sabbath,
Realizing when The Lord is risen,
The Book of Revelation,
To glorify Sunday as The Lord’s Day.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Mary
So Continues a Life
Stepping silently forward down,
Hearing the trumpets hushing of sound,
No one knows how quickly it feels,
Of the Touch of God it is so real,
Somewhere the lost finds this Hope,
Leading – stretching – and ready to cope,
Earthly understandings unite in love,
Strictly from the One Above,
We see the unity of Mary’s Grace,
In the chapel the only place,
The Light – no longer a shadow on her face,
Forgiveness granted is her only trace.
------------------------------------------------------
Angels in my Heart
Not yet Dear Lord,
My thoughts are on my future,
The difference is in Your Mercy,
Controlling every move I make,
So not yet Dear Lord,
You have allowed me to continue,
On an everlasting journey,
Guiding and leading every move I make,
Thank – You Dear Lord,
For the Angels in my Heart,
Protecting me along Your Path,
Forever keeping in perfect rhythm of Your Praise.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Simple are my Reasons
Why do I write about the love I feel inside,
Only to hear the poets truth proclaim,
All the mysteries of Your Passionate Soul,
Truly open as GOD’s KEYS sincerely will,
To the strong-willed individual,
An oppressed heart would never understand,
A Companion always there,
Sharing are my simple reasons,
For the Love You have given us,
So this is why I write of Your Glory,
A grasping thru reaching power,
Will benefit from this need,
And a strength passed to another.
You mean everything to me,
My needs are met with You.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Goodness of Heart
Beating, fluttering, breathless sensations,
Unique is the swiftness of your pulsating wings,
Forever striking a tattoo of silent sound,
Never-ending beat of a quickened heart,
Small creation within a world of constant change,
At times I wonder how life continues,
And why we deserve all of God’s Good Graces,
Then I notice our little Hummingbird,
While life teases my thoughts of truth,
All is passive and turned to peaceful contemplation,
Sometimes thoughts may turn a golden hue,
For we may hear the calling of life,
So with everlasting deliverance of our soul,
We continue on with passions that quell all other misgivings,
Which allow pure thoughts of our own Goodness of Heart.

Dr. Martin Luther King
{A Long Time Ago}
Your memories are written,
Within the pages of time,
How your life was lived,
For the passages speak clear,
Of a great power from the heart, mind, and soul,
A Long Time Ago-
Life is in the Hands of God,
Fate belongs to the flame of truth,
An how your words struck like fire,
Into the thoughts and action for all,
Who needed to conquer the unjust,
A Long Time Ago-
Look into the eyes of this man,
Our Crusader for all tense of time,
Opening doors with the keys of his words,
Into all generations of the oppressed,
To continue the strength to endure the struggles of humanity,
A Long Time Ago-
Your Dream is a Spiritual Quest for the soul,
Together this Dream uplifts the downtrodden heart,
So our Dream mutually unites God’s Heritage,
And life progresses on with a prayer of thought,
Will we say what is still going on,
This was all along time ago.
------------------------------------------------------------
Light around My Neck
Binding are the thoughts,
My soul is entwined with a promise,
Of glory on this earth,
Forever healing the world,
A Word forming a breath everlasting,
Hear a song of eternal meaning,
Passion are the signs around us,
Forgiveness in tears,
Holy is the symbol given me,
And it is extremely Light around My Neck.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Healing
Sheltering of An awesome Shadow,
My Friend Most High,
No matter what the need,
The Healing is ever-present,
Save the worse for now,
A day for following,
Prayers always answered,
The Healing of each season,
Simple meaning of The Spirit,
Loving You my praise creates recognition,
You are what I say in life,
The Healing soul within words,
Pleasure is the trodden road,
Knowing trust for all eternity,
Save me Jesus from my sword,
The Healing actions thru our Saviour of time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
So Simple – So Easy
Strength is the joy,
Let our star shine,
Christened by the new day,
Say a prayer for The Awakening Light,
Humble your dignity before The LORD,
Praising on our knees,
To pray for our Saviour to come,
For surely The Lasting Light will continue,
Truly this is So Simple – So Easy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key of Life
Words,
Carefully chosen,
Within a domain,
Of pious thought.

Prince of Peace
Glory is THY Star,
Hope is in Your Name,
Changing the course of our lives,
Forever in a quicken gaze,
Surly Your Moment is near,
To Create a Full and Everlasting Light,
Hosanna! I sing Your Praises,
So we should always;
Share everyday,
In all ways,
As a time to rejoice.
--------------------------------------------------------
Still Clinging to God
Wishing at times,
For all to end,
So I hear myself think,
Of the reasons,
To leave it behind,
The burning,
Upon my pain,
Streaking down my face,
No longer a shame,
Within this depth,
Called my soul,
Strengthening the wounded spirit,
A need that must be fulfilled,
'Cause what I have in the Messiah King,
Is elation from The Lamb of God,
For listening to the changing heart,
Brings me closer to my purpose,
I sing my life to Jesus Christ,
So this is my internal victory from death,
But my world is foremost in awesome turmoil,
And Still Clinging to God,
Will be a most positive commitment,
In devoting all my efforts,
While letting God’s Way build each inspiration.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Saviour For All
Sent is the Guiding Creation of Christ,
Living in words we discuss together,
Beautiful is our thoughts united,
Each of us speaking the truth forever,
We learn from our separate knowledge,
For once these concepts hit our hearts,
These messages do not go unforgotten,
God allows us to be open-hearted to one another,
So these are The Words of Christ,
Creating fulfillment unique,
Endless ideals for the moment,
Everything will fold into as one.
-------------------------------------------------------
My Shield
In my life I have read,
Countless problems unite individuals,
To qualify the hearts tears,
Of each emotional need,
Hearing in one breath,
A voice of a tormented neighbor,
In a crowd of countless days,
Do they plead their plight,
Reaching out to the public,
Unknown answers in the air,
Then the song of Our Redeemer,
Rings loud within The Shield of Christ.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Easy are the Words
At times we are difficult,
Too hard for endurance,
Our aches and pains are constant,
With complaints that seem many,
This weakness is complete,
But Your Strength,
Rescues our soul,
And the Compassion You Feel,
Is outward in Your Demeanor,
Easy are the Words,
That come to my thoughts,
So my prayers will continue,
With You in mind.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Just For Me
The Lord will arrive,
Upon His Word,
Easily the time will appear,
When the trumpet sounds,
Disappointment – none,
If the truth,
Is heard differently,
In the end,
What a beginning fulfilled,
So truly be aware,
For His Time draws nigh,
And the combination magnificent.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Heaven’s Choice
Strength from conquest,
Who sincerely will rest,
How is the principle clear,
In every difference I hear,
Is the singing truly grace within?,
As a reflection we all feel?,
I can not decide on my own,
What is truly real,
For our souls’ we do cherish,
All the feelings locked inside,
Just as always it’s Heaven’s Choice,
Never disregard this inner voice.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Especially For You
My expressions from deep within,
To an heart that’s so deserving,
Is the quality of your self,
Which I will truly acknowledge,
Yes, your soul is complete,
In every detail of your thoughts,
And this truth will continue,
With each positive deed that you do,
So to set forth on in life,
Not one may foretell the seasons,
Lo, your genuine caring continues,
On a path of your true intentions.
Thank –You!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jew and Gentile
It takes,
More than one,
To sin,
Should we care,
What each of us gives to another,
Wherefore do we hide,
Our shame is complete,
What hast thou done,
To commit the only crime,
We have gone unpunished within life,
Technically we have shared the blame,
For in Christ’s Name,
The die has been cast,
Jew and Gentile,
Were all alone in this task,
A hardened heart we have,
To blame only the lion,
Fiery is the burn,
Our Lamb of mortal man,
Mystery is the Forgiveness of Heaven.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Encourage Me
A time is drawn nigh,
Ever so quickly,
To hear the unexpected call,
Fleeting is a moment forever,
Once to step in the soul of direction,
Guiding, ever gently lulling,
The quickening beat essential,
Many thoughts encompassing about within,
'Til a dawning to encourage me thru out completion,
And life will continue anew!
Positive Spirit
