Poem: God Ordained Trials

Learn from Apostle Paul’s and Job’s life lessons,

for faith’s gold will be tested and purified;

tribulations are faced by God’s daughters and sons,

but only through Christ - can one be justified.



The troubles of the day will eventually find us;

but will you be prepared by the principles of Love?

Remember the divine words of the Lord Christ Jesus

and draw strength from His righteous Kingdom…

Poem: Sufficient for the Day

Sufficient for the day is the Lord’s grace,

although the day has troubles of its own;

remain standing on the foundation of faith,

for the secret… is going before God’s throne.



Daily measures of mercies and love are available,

since Christ our advocate is making intercessions

that lift us up – for when we eventually fall down,

as the result of our sinful transgressions.



Sufficient for the day is the Lord’s…

The Primordial One (Triquatrain Poem)

The Primordial One is immanent,while He's never transcendent

And this  existent world, at the beginning, was only His vision.

 The Lord has Being to  create his vision-world without lightweight

 For this real world of Becoming,  with His meticulous precision.

 

At the beginning, we were His imagination; we were a reason for creation

And, only for being with Him, He made us, in time, to become so real.

Tower of Babel wasn't an illusion, when…

Pacific Trash Vortex (Triple Tetractys Poem)

Waste

Sea green

Wavering

In slimy traps

In woozy circles

Gushing at the deep water horizon

 

Melody still rooting in bluesy rock

Gloppy red icing

Crooked letters

Violet

Colored

Dream

 

Fish

Yellow

Flimsy boats

Lanky white man

Muzzy from the work

Cloudy indigo sky hanging round all.

Your Cubic Slang

Enclose the closeness in your soul,

 Enclose it as you enclose the ''uco'' in cornucopious.

 Enclose the gray transparency in your sky,

 When it is so close to your coming clouds.

They are the dimples of your cognitive space,

They are hollow thoughts,

When you set your ideals at naught.

 Those clouds are inside of your gray

 As close as the ''co'' in the cocoon,

Those clouds are fulfilled with your leady rain.

They are…

Irises, a painting by Vincent van Gogh (Ekphrastic Poetry)

There is an explosion of green life in the light,

 This life extrapolates  all its emerald green.

This life needs its eternity to be as tight

And as deep as an icy queen needs her own sheen.



 And all the colors of the rainbow may be seen

In different amounts to the different shades.

 Blue iris is placed in a complex world of green.

 Into the flowers’ bed, these flowers are like spades.

 

They need to reassure, as Pantone may…

IN THE UNIVERSITY OF JOURNEYS

One learns myriad lessons

   on life...

One improves his skills

   in questioning...

One internalizes the values

   of humility...

One expresses his appreciation

   on nature's beauty...

One relies on all his senses

   even common sense...

One assimilates the ambivalence

   of emotions...

One conveys his gratitude

   to other travelers...

One realizes his dependence

Poem: Find Refuge in Him

The morally deficient have no clue,

not finding God within their heart;

are they absorbed by corruption

and unwillingly from sin to depart?



Our Lord gazes down upon Mankind,

seeing the vileness of human deeds.

Do these workers of iniquity know anything

about meeting any of humanity’s needs?



So many souls are wickedly consumed,

analogous to the devouring of bread.

How unfortunate and Godless they…

Truest Essences Of Purity

She slowly opens her quiescent heart


like the sacred Nymphaea pondweeds

I go there often to watch the snowy egrets

The dead waters ripple as the zephyr kiss's whisper

humming through the papery birch woods

I seen her standing by the covered bridge

The one where we carved a rose blossom

while the mint festival was in full bloom

…fresh picked mint is…

Upon seeing a class picture

Upon seeing a class picture

 

 

Upon seeing a decade-and-one-old photograph

Where I am one of the shy stars

Where the innocent faces feel the space

Where the focal point is a motherly mentor

This heart pulsates with

The singing gratefulness

And the lolling longing.

 

And so I feel thankful

That I had that bliss

Reminiscing, Recalling, Remembering:

Friends, adviser, classmates
