How Sweet
by Michelle MayorgaO how sweet is your sunlight in the morning; how sweet the feel of your awakening. How fragile you are. Your warmth compared to none; my everyday security. Your love I am able to bury myself in, my satisfaction. How gentle your touch, calmly carving your fingerprint into my soul. O how thirsty it is. O how sweet. Your eyes infinitely shinning like the stars you have created. The eternal universe is in you. Your every breath melts my inner me letting me know you are here. I can taste your mercy. I drink myself over and over again so I am reborn back into your memory; back into your spirit. O how sweet. Like honey is the taste of your glory. Like water, is your presence to my soul. O how sweet you indeed are

by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
You often ask me to be humble…
To comply as I endure so much pain…
I do so to please you, My Heavenly Father…
Unconditionally, without refrain…
As we are so often tempted…
By evilness with fiery horns…
Oh, Father, not my will, but thine be done…
As I sit here with my crown of thorns…

It’s A New Day!
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
Good morning world...
It’s a new day...
The Sun has risen...
If we allow ourselves to live in the moment...
If we allow ourselves to receive the gift that nature offers us each and every morning...
It’s a new day...
The sky is clear...
The birds are chirping...
If we allow ourselves to leave yesterday behind us...

His Love Is Never Far
by No Name
Despondent from the hurtful things she said,
The words of anger ringing in my head.
Upon my bed I cry and pray to You,
And often wonder if Your word is true.
But who am I to doubt Your tender love,
When You have shown me mercies from above?
The God Who made the world, the sky and sea
Sees me for who I am, and still loves me.
Almighty One who calls the stars by name

The Crosse Of Christ
by Walter Raleigh
Rise, O my soul, with thy desires to heaven,
And with divinest contemplation use
Thy time, where time's eternity is given ;
And let vain thoughts no more thy thoughts abuse,
But down in midnight darkness let them lie ;
So live thy better, let thy worst thoughts die.
And thou, my soul, inspired with holy flame,
View and review, with most regardful eie,
That holy crosse whence thy salvation came,

S.O.S.

Help. Me. Light.
Save. My. Ship.
Can’t. Feel. Life.
Just. The. Grip.
Of. Sharp. Knives.
Will. I. Trip?
God. I. Need.
You. Right. Here.
Cause. My. Cheeks.

The Sleep Of Life
by Michael J. Nappi
Dreams of life lived
younger self and world
safety and comfort nestled in womb
sweet heartache... first love's nip
Lifetimes of lovers come and gone
muscle cars; backseats and drive ins
four legged friends and two faced enemies
wakes lost in faded waters

Divine Answer
by Somali Mukherjee
When I prayed to God,
He answered me with thunder,
With streaks in the sky.
The Tension of the in-between
by Sylvia Ochieng
Oh such a glorious invitation
What a spiritual adventure to walk with the Most High
Infinite God and finite man on a love expedition
Oh, what mystery encamps the steer!
Deeper still He woos intently
Through faith's alley abide completely
In the dark, uncertain, hear the voice
Follow steadily without noise
