Poetry

take care mandy

[NickHassan]

tantrums do not elevate any form of debate, nor do sullen moods
change the order of things, God is sovereign, get over it
naughty children I warned you, now go to your room
scream and shout all you will but it is not possible
to change anything that has been writ
and you will find later on it is
better this way,
not ours

Neither is this, really.

But I like it. It makes me laugh at myself…

provocking dose not elevate any form of debate, 'Normally'
In fact its as cold as Ice, freezes the gates of hell closed.

Hey Im off out to talk face to face with christains tonight, I'll try hard not to throw a tantrum, or get moody if they don't undersatnd me..

blessings Mandy, Nick, Lineon

Hey, Mandy we need some more comment on this thread.

[charity]

and also Mrs

[Not3in1]

You guys are kidding, right?

I'm not a poet but thought I'd give it a try to answer some of Nick's musings. It's fun.

Also, regarding the comments….this thread almost seems to have a hushed presence about it -it's poetry ONLY. It kinda makes me feel like I'm in a library or something. SHHHHHHH! No talking!

Hi Mandy you are a joker?
A libary
You have the right type of imagination to be a poet.

if the words of the master seem to catch in your craw
or they need your spiritual insight to be understood at all
or must be taken as truth only where they were said
you have defined yourself as being cut off from the head

[NickHassan]

those who don't need the bible really need it much more
for whatever they believe that is valid or any use at all
comes from that sacred source heaven's bread for our soul
no servant ever able to cast from his life the instructions
the guidebook the Spirit and the life that lives therein and
is given to base all faith on not just now but unto eternal
grip tightly the map let not fools steal away your personal
essential gift, from your dad,that is unwrapped day by day.

[NickHassan]

no man has yet lived who is able to judge the Word
for it is the food that comes from the mouth of our God
never mind the author's names, vessels add their tincture
too, just a garnish, hints of their own nature, culture, essence
of God carries expression through sons of Adam, remade sons of God.

[NickHassan]

scornful faithless malcontents pick and poke at precious things
neither tasting nor attempting to discern how true alignment brings
meaning purpose to the whole, wise storemen taking from new and old
building slowly adding daily to the wondrous divine foundation for the king

[NickHassan]

fear of change is tradition by another name
security bound up only in what is earthly,
fear of losing control fear of deception as with
all unholy fears brings about what we fear
trust is all trust in scripture trust the Son
and trust our God, even trusting self is death
let the Spirit author of the writings lead to eternity

Twilight Odyssey Lyrics

We traveled towards land unknown
Upon the winding path of fate
Uncertainty, our companion
Understanding, our destination
We looked above to the heavens
While fire blazed across the sky
And seared it a brilliant crimson
That quickly faded to gray…
Enchanted mist rained down upon us
Clouding the path with haze
Vertigo sensation rising within
As we hopelessly cling to vespers
And begin to slip away…
Into a vortex of undefined shapes
Trying to grasp
Some shred of reality
A futile endeavor
In this dreamlike world
Infinity's child surrounds
Where the golden chimeras fly
As a phantasmagoria unfolds before our eyes
As we yield to our invigorated senses
The existence we once knew falls away
And we spread our wings for the first time
With unparalleled abandon
We drink in the rich beauty
That lies in the forgotten wisdom
Of this unearthly realm…
It flows into us
As we bathe in the twilight glow
And the secrets of the universe
Are bestowed upon us
In a celestial coronation
As we rotate as one
In harmony with the spheres…

[lineon]

Lord My God
My love for You is kindled
The ice within me
Is melting and invades my soul
Splashing my face
Awakening my mind
To your freedom.

'Let go, let go'
I hear Your trumpet call,
'Let go your inhibitions,
Step out and walk in My Light
Don't take fright
Your life is safe.'
That trumpet tune plays in my head.

I hear Your tune,
I see Your covenant in the sky
The colours are bright and sharp,
Life is my goal
Freedom is anchored in my soul,
No one can take it away
Only I.

VISIONS OF ATLANTIS (LYRICS)

Seven Seas

I try to reach you through this fog of ancient fear.
And I'll return to you one day again, my dear.

I made this journey over seven seas for you.
Now I found the place, and now, I've found the truth.

This is the last step to my illumination now,
So long just waiting, searching,
Hoping and finding the way how.
On the water in this realm I see your face…
A revelation's done, right moment, right place.

Once in a lifetime your dream is your destiny's way.
And here on the water forever you'll stay.

Dark waters now await my branded soul,
So much done to reach this deep dark hole.

The execution of all gains in my life before,
Is now, is then, and will be finally forevermore.
No more waiting, searching, hoping, and finding how,
As I've been told, I will reach your kingdom now.

Once in a lifetime your dream is your destiny's way.
And here on the water forever you'll stay.

Now I invite you to come to my kingdom with me,
No foretelling futures, through the eyes of the world you will see…

“Path Of Reality” (lyrics)

The future unknown. cannot say man or god
So may the destiny show us the way
We can but hope that it leads us by the path
But there's always allurement to turn off the road

But on the edge of road only will-o-wisps play
And following them the truth light disappears
But why must we follow that dying light

If you stay you'll pine away
If you leave your honour will be history

Creatures of nights mortals of morning
Always reaching for the reborning
For them are laughing moon and sun
Forgotten even they're not eternal

If you stay you'll pine away
If you leave your honour will be history

In silence we walk no sign of tomorrow
We travel a long and a winding road
We can but hope that it leads us by the path
So may the destiny show us the way

If you stay you'll pine away
If you leave your honour will be history

Hi People

Here is worthless little execise I did.
What do you think of it.?
For long time [30years?]
I have believed the majority of musicians
Are looking for somthing, but they do not know
What they are looking for,
Or they choose to ignore it.
They are looking for God!

I took some song titels
And composed a poem.
Just to prove my point.
Each line is a title of a song
By various artists.

'A Day In The Life'
'Of Mice And Men'
'Who Knew'
'God Is A Lie'
'And So It Goes'

'But It Is Better If You Do'
'Not Fade Away'
'Into The Mystic'
'Of Mice And Men'
'God Gave Me Everything'

Pls. tell me if I am clutching at straws!

[NickHassan]

I was born blind and now i can see so that's good enough for me
i was a beggar man and he came past and saw me, knew his Father
gave the opportunity and ignored the theory of sin of his friends
and excitedly followed what he heard and put some stuff on my eyes
and told go and wash it off and then i could see, so seems that God
was with him as it is unheard of in these parts for a blind man to
be given sight, simple commonsense informs tells me to go follow him
i think he is a prophet, ask Mum and Dad, blind as a bat till today,
God does not listen to sinners praying for healing so he's ok with me
fool you do not know anything and we have expertise, if he was of God
he would not fix a sinner like you on the sabbath, Moses we know,
but this new fellow proves himself a sinner by breaking Moses' rules
out you go you unbeliever join the infidels outside the temple gates
now appears the gentle stranger yet unseen and opens heaven's door
introducing self as son of God, faith established on the divine works
for blindness true is of the mind, far stronger than the eye can see
