My Elixir of Life

I spend all my time feeling so alone With no sign of hope all I do is roam I long to go home to that City so fair But all before me are people who stare So cold hearted they are all on their knees Seeking mere man they are bent to please This is not the life I seek, to be an appeaser For what good will come to one who is pleaser? What I need this Earth has nothing to offer So I look towards Heaven to fill up my coffer I know this world is no longer my home I m just a wayward guest trying to find some rest His Word I cherish way deep within Cause its the path thatll lead me to him With peace and everlasting joy I find I am the Way the Truth and the Life And then I praise and thank Jesus My Elixir of Life!

Unchanging God

My problems are so many Ive been tried and so weary until my wits end is near Dont worry my heart for My Unchanging God changes Things for me You may feel the weight of the world on your shoulders as its burdens wear you down Dont worry your heart for Your Unchanging God changes Things for you Our enemies they watch us And plague us with fire They hurl us around until we tire Dont worry our hearts for Our Unchanging God changes Things for us

December

It was a December morn My heart was filled with trepidation Cause this was the day it was No longer just me! I anxiously watched the hours tick by And soon the clock was chiming four The church bells were pealing Was that all for me? The house was overflowing With an excited bunch Noisily moving to church in a rush What is this feeling welling in me? And at the altar stood my half Wed soon be joined no longer one and as his face welled up with love I knew for certain hed complete my heart For it was this December eve He promised that he would Take care of me!

My young man

Tiny little hands Tiny little feet Counting five fingers Counting five toes So divinely formed And woven with His intricate hands A tiny little mouth With two beady eyes A smile so tender A cry so loud Just to let us know That he is around! The first few months Are the sweetest Letting him explore His tiny little world Soon he will out grow His tiny little world Stepping into the pageant of man!

Marana tha Lord!

I wish I could sail upon a cloud so high And move along to distant skies To lands unknown by beast or man To the place we know as City of Gold To walk along on streets of gold And bask in the light of Old To drink from the fountain of Life And eat from the tree of Life I will no longer fear the cold long dark nights For my Lord and my God will shed His great Light I long to stay in His presence forever And by His throne I will leave Him never Surrounded by His mercy and grace I will always gaze into His face With the roaring multitude I will cry out Holy Holy Holy Lord God Almighty Who Is? Who Was? and Who is to come! Marana tha Lord Marana tha

The third degree

My little son hes just about six He prattles non stop at times I am sick He knows all the Ws, I dont know how? And before I know, its the third degree! I am not given a chance to answer When hes rattling off another His questions range from this or that Wonder what hes at! Where does the sun go at night? Why does the moon change its pretty sight? Where does the sea end? How does the rain fall? These questions that keep burning him while answers for a place to hide within I am armed with technology as my guiding light To answer questions am preparing my fight!

Silent Labour of love

My Granny shes loving and sweet Shes up and about at a quarter to six She does all her chores Before the house stirs Yetshe silently labored with a smile Silently yet patiently shes at the hot stove The heavenly smell of coffee brewing Just tickles the nose with all her toil While appams are rising and stews on the boil Yetshe silently labored with a smile The dishes she prepared was so fab Her Kormas,curries and fries were so rad the Puttu and dosa were heavens delight Many a time wed put up a fight Yet she silently labored with a smile I miss my dear Nana with all of my heart But I cherish her memories and all she taught Her duty she did without any fee She lives in my heart forever and free No Longershe silently labours with a smile
