    Am I So Far Away

    The stars, the moon
    Seem so far away
    Completely out of hand’s reach,
    So much stray thought
    In the air, that my
    Thoughts bump against.

    How far is man away
    Is he my neighbor
    Or is he in a glass case
    For me to look at?

    Is there nobody
    To touch me
    And to say I am for real,
    That I am living
    And can love somebody
    So that I may touch them
    And know that they
    Are for real.

    Running my hand
    Over the bark of a tree
    And knowing it is there.
    Am I so far away from You?

    You are forgiven for your happiness and your successes only if you generously consent to share them.

    The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, learn about them, or even seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.

    If a child is to keep his inborn sense of wonder, he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in.

    I Glimpse The Light

    The river sparkles and gurgles
    While the sky clouds up
    And birds and bees seek shelter,
    I sat there pondering on a rock,
    While the light became darker.
    I sat there pondering about You,
    Yes, You with the golden light about You
    And the unrecognized face
    You have so much love for Your creation
    So much forgiveness in You.

    Copied and adjusted to suit the occasion.

    In the search for Me, I discovered Truth.

    In the search for Truth, I discovered Love.

    In the search for Love, I discovered you.

    And in GOD

    I Discovered I have found EVERYTHING!

    I Am Not Needed
                   
    People do not need me!
    I must understand this.

    People whom I meet
    Have little in common with me,
    I absorb them within a day or two.

    People do not need me!

    People seek sensations
    People seek authority,
    The self they want to forget.

    People do not need me!

    Understanding society,
    There is nothing in it for me,
    We are cold we need a fire.

    People do not need me!
    I must understand this.

    The female is cursed in desire towards a Mate
    while The Male is cursed with desire towards his mates,
    even Jesus shall wash his feet above the woman who loved him more.
    Both of these are vanity without natural context?

    Struggling Against The Flow

    These flowers that grow at my feet
    Give me hope and implore me to search on.
    Into the night I go
    Walking the cobbled alleys,
    Recognition is dim of the on coming strangers,
    They move past me, the way I had come,
    I turn around warning them,
    But my wagging tongue is still,
    My thoughts go out to these strangers
    Telling them,
    ‘I had travelled down the cobbled alley
    On either side there are robbers
    And darkness darker than the night,
    Ghosts sit on your shoulder
    Breathing you into a daze
    Until you thoughts are scattered
    Until there is no wrong or right.
    There are gutters filled with souls.’
    I tell them.
    Some take heed of my thought,
    Some tarry on the way,
    But they do not stretch their thoughts
    Towards me, they are numb and paralyzed with fright,
    Like me.
    I linger in the darkness
    Of the cobbled alley way, keeping them company.
    In time they turn from me,
    Wandering down the darkening cobbled alley.
    Shaking my head I turn the opposite way
    Not knowing the darkness
    Struggling with my steps.
    Opposition dressed in rags and fine cloths,
    Scenting the air,
    Seeps into my nostrils,
    I pray, knowing that they are vice.
    My sprite revives
    My steps become light
    I am born a new.
    Strangers come walking past
    Up the cobbled alley way we go,
    My way!
    I reach out,
    But no, my touch is still cold
    I draw back hurriedly.
    My eyes see a distant Light.

    Time and Happiness

    In between the stars
    Swaying with the motion of the atmosphere,
    Gently I am swayed to and fro.
    By passing all creation
    Where nothing is real only an allusion
    Too time and happiness.
    About time; Our time is nothing,
    Can be nullified by a mere eruption
    Scattering time into waste and desolation,
    Emptying rural and urban dwellings,
    Time is laid in waste.
    About happiness; Why, it is only a sensation
    Stemming from the basic sensation.
    All is make belief disappearing with time.

    Reaching For The Light

    What is my life in this mirror?
    Where all is everything
    And everything am I.
    Like a candle light I flicker
    In this huge Light that surrounds me
    Which shoots off sparks
    Igniting me to become bigger,
    Inflaming my soul for understanding of this mirror
    And my flame within me.

    Sparks flash through the air throwing Light in all directions
    I jump high for a touch of them,
    But they are no more they vanish in the distance,
    I come down deflated, my direction has turned
    New images come in the way
    They belong to the mirror, that is I,
    Shouldering them I let them by.
    Again I jump, the flashing sparks explode in my mind
    Uplifting me within reach of the Light.

    The Truth Is Here

    In my truth I am still a child
    But in your truth I am older than grey,
    Deceit and hypocrisy is the order of your day.
    Stealing I’ve come to know
    It’s done without blinking an eye,
    Lying also you do from day to day.
    From birth till death you play this childish game
    Taking yourself seriously in this monopoly.

    Where is the truth where in I was born,
    The truth that mankind has taken away from me?
    In this truth is my life where in I am a mere child.

    Truth Is Scorned

    Where angels dwell and scorpions hide;
    There is my life.
    A place where beggars stand counterfeiting the great,
    Here in this enclosure where all is found in the voice of mankind,
    My life explodes shattering thought all around.

    In this superficial world, where food and fashion get the highest acclaim
    Where power and vice is held in high esteem.
    Here the shades of truth linger for the seeker,
    They do not hide they are only scorned
    By existing life of touch, sight and sound.

    Once Again The Rain

    I see a grey cloud hanging over the horizon,
    Heavy, with flashes of lightning and thunder claps ringing out,  
    The sounds breaking the silence of the quiet afternoon
    And ripping my thoughts into rain.

    The rainy curtain draws nearer; the wind pushing and leading it along,
    I want to run from the sweeping wind that blows threw trees and vines,
    Run headlong before the wind, threw seasons and darkness
    Always to be within the Light.

    The rain is faster than I, drenching my body.
    Soaking wet I stumble and slip into mud, my thoughts become black,
    The mud oozes at my leg, it is senseless to struggle
    I lie still, let the mud suck as far as the knee until the rain stops.

    Greetings Charity……It is not selfish to expect even more if your heart is right with God and you are functioning in his will and sharing the blessings given unto you….
    The ugly side of expecting more and giving nothing has to do with the hubris,vanity and greed that is man…..

    :) Its the Masters that are in need of humbling, that they should unjustly hire one man for whole day, and another for one hour, and pay the same wage.

    the math of such a parable is…that this master is working people for a reward that even he considers is in fact worthless labour
