Poetry

Restoring Israel
God created and formed you,
And He has also redeemed;
You are His treasured value,
You are the light that has gleamed.

When you pass through the waters,
The Lord will be guiding you;
Be with your sons and daughters,
In your trek to continue.

You won’t be burned by the flame,
When walking by the fire;
As you proceed to proclaim,
Following God’s desire.

For He is the Lord your God,
Holy One of Israel;
Who you must honor and laud,
As your Savior having zeal.

You are precious to His eyes,
He honors and He loves you;More »

Turn Of The Year
It´s just a turn of the Page not
Time to utter many platitudes
Which won´t change a thing
Unless we change our attitudes.
A vow to lose weight won´t
House a homeless man
A less self obsessed attitude
Maybe just can.
Evading a just proportion of taxes
While displaying obscene wealth
Maybe good for an ego but bad
For a Nation´s financial health.
The nation Subsidising
Scrooge employers,
The huge growth of
No Win No Fee Lawyers.
Don´t give a beggar money
Buy him a coffee and a banjo
Maybe have a little chat
Spare a minute before you go,<More »

I Am A Veteran
How can you tell a man he´s a veteran
When he´s only just twenty three.
Veterans are old white haired, wrinkly
And they look a lot like me.
So we talk of shared experiences,
Like being beasted on the square,
Or being on restricted privileges
For millimetres too much hair.

And maybe the tension eases
The more these things are spoken
Until maybe it finally dawns there´s
No shame in being young and broken.
For despite the gap in generations
Some things will always be the same
When a man´s signed away his life
And joined the barmy army game

EMBERS





~EMBERS~



It's all been reduced to ash
Only a chimney left standing
Is a stark reminder of the fires
That are tearing through Los Angeles

Still the inferno rages on
Leaving a large path of destruction
Some not making it out
Forever changing Lives

Dedicated to My Southern California Neighbors and The Firefighters/First Responders🙏.🙏

The Ever-Present God
The Lord has searched and have known me,
He knows when I sit and rise up;
He understands my thoughts I see,
And the coffee within my cup.

He encompasses of my path,
And acquainted with all my ways;
While sparing me from His wrath,
For guiding me from where it strays.

Even before a word on my tongue,
The Lord knows the thoughts I gather;
Allows the words that will be flung,
A right linguistics together.

He sets me behind and before,
As He lays His hand upon me;
And He guides me across the floor,
Opening my eyes as to see.
