Save the Clarity

In a Life
Where seas matter
The matter is the fact
There is no question
Of it purpose
Just a fraction
Of the earth
That makes up most
Of even those
That on it dwell
Water!
Thirst for
Clean in
Clean with 
Live in
Made up of

Of course it is not still
It waves in beauty
It ripples and effects
Across the world
To the other side and back again
When the sea is not
Where it started
It may have been moved
By someone's tears
Or spread by the stream or creek
It may have fallen fresh
From the sky
Or from an eye
Filtered the salt out
It falls
It may be recycled
Yet it is appreciated as though new
The rain from the sky
Where did it take its moisture!
From lakes, from tears
From perspiration?
Desperation
To save
That which humans
Are made up of
Body of water
Our body holds much water 
We mustn't waste it
Otherwise we become the waste
Treat the water
As you want to be treated 
Don't become waste
Appreciate the clarity

Where is the surface?

We are living in stillness
Yet forever moving
Never ceasing
To create time
In our lives
For important and unimportant
The line is thin
Often barely visible
It’s still there
But it often becomes blurry
The lenses have malfunctioned
And clarity is lacking
Like polluted water
The bottom
Can no longer be seen
Is the bottom the beginning
Or the surface where we see?
The surface almost always
Gets paid the most attention
Yet the layers create what
Really exists
Inside, down and out
A breath
Is in and out
The blood flows this way too
Inhale and exhale
Within the stillness
And in the creation
Of what is larger
The skin is thick
But the heart is soft
Ponder upon the good

Purest of Breaths

You know the people
In this life
That make you think of heaven?
The true people
That help you to believe in heaven?
I have met some
Some have crossed my path
A dear lady
So wonderful, so lovely
Lost her battle today
Took her last breath
In this life today
I believe she has taken the first
Of infinity breaths
Today as well
The purest of breaths
That are her new norm
Amongst many other heavenly gifts
That make pale the earthly home
Some people
You meet
You just feel
You will meet again
That also leads me to believe
In heaven
Pure, precious, never fading light
In the heart from the start
I’m glad I met you
And thank God for you
In this life we are closer
Than we know
To the next
In this life
We can participate
In the kingdom that is at hand
Will you join in the feast ?
It is the meeting
Of two worlds
We’ve been invited to
The mystical banquet
And I imagine
My ancestors, yours and many others
Are there too, God willing
We have been invited
We are invited
I’ll see you there,
I pray

O Lord You are with us

O Lord, Lord, Lord You are always true
I trust, trust, trust, trust, even in the blue
When we are weeping, You are there
Weeping with us too
You know the feelings
You blessed the sorrow
For You have suffered too
We needn’t feel ashamed
In our times of great need
Even in the winter season
Of the sorrow in our hearts
There is a mystery of joy
Knowing You are not only part
But all encompassing in our lives
Eternally, You are present
Eternally You are past
Eternally You are future
And I rest peace in that
For if You were not with us
Everywhere present and filling all things
Where would we be
But in a world
With no worth at all
There is meaning
There is meaning to this life for sure
We may not see it
We may not understand it
But all will be revealed one day
In Love we must live
And do our best at that
For without Love
Even clashing symbols are silent
I’m thankful for loud Love from You
My Lord
I’m thankful for the teaching
Through Your words and through Your kindness
And in Your daily life
You revealed a better way
A way to show love
Not to even always preach
But infact to join to Love
So we too can be love
And give the holy gift of love
That IS only from above
And only with God’s strength
Do we even have any love to give at all
I unite myself to Christ
I unite myself to Love
I am thankful for Love
And I pray that abundance will overflow
Within me and within you all
Sorrow may even have a tomorrow
But one day, all suffering will flee
And we will be in peace
