Wake up to a green sky.
Pollution at poisonous levels.
Breathe the noxious air.
Killing the planet slowly.
Water murky with refuse.
Drink the venomous refuse.
Fires burning endlessly.
The earth a charred ruin.
Become fuel for the flame.
Father time closes his hands.
The end is Now.

What is it that makes you care?
For a world that doesn’t share.
Is it fortune, fame or just pure fear.
That with those hands you can endear.

Be not be smitten by what you see.
For we were created, yes by thee.
We are hopeless and careless sometimes it seems.
But there is love and trust to those we can deem.

Don’t judge us when we make huge mistakes
But pray we will learn for his name sake
Life once, was simple, before we grew to know
The methods of science would take the show.

You know we love temptation, as the stories told.
Yet we also love honour , in which these hands do hold.
So lift us god Almighty, to your heavens with a smile.
Forgive the sins of many, let us rest with you a while.

Trapped within a moment in time.
Held faster the harder I climb.
Silent words as in pantomime.

As the world turns without me...
spinning my rhyme.

The creation of Life
is held within hands
That mold and shape
and produce new lands
Destructive powers
these hands hold, too
The taking of Life
obstructs the view
The Life we live
reflects our Soul
We either destroy
or make things whole
Hold precious the Life
contained in those hands
Nurture and heal
as your heart demands

There lies the Earth made up of sod
All nature held in the hands of God
"The world is my Oyster" or so men say
And the world IS my Oyster since that fateful day
My view of the world was not always clear
My thoughts and feelings were not held dear
But then you appeared and all was manifest
My troubles eased and laid to rest
Since that day the world is in MY hands
Our souls joined and confirmed with golden bands
And together, the world is ours to roam
and in our hands, our love, our home

It's a be all, see all, take all
kind of world.

I refuse to be under your control
how dare you bear your thoughts so bold
I've never listened to what you've told
so get a grip and just let go.

I don't care what the others say
I'll push through life, live it day by day
dug in deep and I'm here to stay
no white flag shall I raise.

It's a shut up, put up, suck up
kind of world.

As I gaze into the night
A world away
Lending a helping hand
Holding up the world
In my hands I try
To help those I can
Friends and strangers alike
An open heart
I lend a helping hand
Know not enemies
All be friends… not strangers
Sharing what life offers
Holding life close to the heart
Loving and sharing
Take my hand and fear not
Walk by my side
I know the way
I will lead the way
Taking each I know
To the safety of my heart
Then go forth and share
Let others know the joy
Love, happiness, friendship
Caring and sharing
Lend a helping hand
Know the joy of sharing

The stars are shining bright tonight
As they always have
And I standing window side
Gaze in wonder at the sight
Hopes and dreams stare down upon me
From the stars afar
And I but a speck on this earth
Wish to catch that falling star
Hold its warmth within my hands
And be able to finally understand
What it is up in the sky
That bring such hope and brilliant insight
But as I stare upon this scene
That has now engulfed me
I only know one thing
That if I catch that star tonight
I will search high and low
For worthy hands to call home
To this priceless treasure
And when all is said and done
It will surely find itself
In the palms of a blind one
Epic Myst©

Of battles fought, I lost not one
my armour bright as Sols on way
but  Death I met along the trail
He'd come to cast his evil spell.

A timepiece held in withered hands
and bloodshot eyes devoid of fear
Where go you now, he sneered at me,
I've come to claim your soul from thee.

Please hesitate a moment more,
O Death, you know I cannot go
More battles lie just ahead
I'll give you all their souls instead.

Just look at thee all scared and bent
now of your sins you must repent
for time awaits no man's claim
I wait for none, less those of fame

But when I rode with Kubla Kahn
and slayed the mighty dragon Zoe
at that time they promised me
life and love eternally

Come now with me great Knight of old
these lasts bits of sand do fall
I'll take you where rewards await
I, death, do not end your fate

For where we go, as you will see
is a place prepared for knights like thee
As sure as I before you stand
you must face the last bits of sand.

I watched aghast as the last bits fell
Hoping for Heaven but dreading Hell
My soul from armor suddenly free
a tunnel of light surrounded me

Faster and faster the tempest grew
I soared and soared past foes of old
arriving at God's golden throne
He knighted me one of His own.

The wonder of it all, fills my mind
Looking to the stars, a reflection in time
A time of creation and burst of light
Of never ending beginnings for eternity's sake.

Each creation, lovingly molded by your hands
A lovers touch, embraced with warmth
A mothers healing, to guide the love
Divine giving, not to be deserved.

Before the start of recorded time
When thought and its essence were real
You started a creation that continues today
Not touching it, it spins like a top.

Scientist discover from time to time
Galaxies, stars and moons
Each of these made from your wonderful hands
Not touched but surrounded with your loving care.

"...and behold the Earth, for it is good."
His hands, they touch me
reaching within to my very core.
His eyes, they permeate my life
saturating each molecule.
His Love guides me through
turmoil and triumph.
I was to Him before my birth.

It was He...
Like a shadow's reflection
cast from the grapefruit moon
or the candlelight dancing in
silhouette,
conforming, ebbing, reshaping
but always intertwined
in the image.
Yes, it was He who held
me long ago in ages past
and knew me
It is still He who holds the very essence
and fabric together,
In the hands of the Beholder
is where I shall forever be.

A circle of love
living water
hands that
hold
caress
touch tenderly
hands that are strong yet gentle
hands that hold me when i cry
hands that soothe my torment
a hand that longs to touch
your hand
my hand
to lead us to peace
to safety
to the place where
we thirst  no longer
to where  we only need the
circle of love to
complete
our hearts yearnings
reach out touch the hand
grasp it
hold it tightly
for HIS hand is all
you will ever need
LadyValor©

the night is calm
peaceful
the moon creates
a luminous pathway
on the midnight ocean
the tide rolls and washes
rolls and washes
oh how it calms
refreshes
satisfies my mind
the surf echo's my
beating heart
the stars reflect
the light in my soul
and suddenly
we are one
HE floods me
and the music is pure heaven
I am HIS
now and forever
HE is my forever constant
deep sigh
Thank you M'Lord Jesus
Thank YOU

Supported by the hands of fate
Changing at a constant rate
The world revolves as it should
Both in bad ways and in good
For all of life is a balancing act
What is fiction without fact?
What is good without the bad?
What is happiness if you're never sad?
What is wrong if nothing is right?
What is darkness without the light?
Balance is different for everyone
One person's moon is another's sun
Balance within yourself is what you must find
Between body, soul, heart and mind
When you can balance all that you are
Your light will shine, the brightest star

See it there? I let it go.
Yes me.
It began within and continued
Without.
Agony, ecstasy, I know not
Which.
An eruption set it loose,
To go.
Part of me and yet,
Not.
Hopes and dreams, the best
Of me,
To go forever, beyond.
Expanding.
From the waters of birth,
Hope.
Rising, shining, cradled, then
Gone.
Set free for the benefit of
Others.
To give is to live and all shall
Continue.
Eternity, into infinity.
Yes.
A Phoenix, rising from
The ashes
Of stolen hope and lost
Dreams.
Irrevocably departed from me,
So others
Might benefit from the
Essence,
Cherished and nurtured
Within
Creation's Hands.

Distance has been our enemy my love.
Month after lonely month,
The resounding echo's of our exultant hellos
Have been followed by painful good-byes.

But for this brief moment,
And without predication.
The universe has stopped and carved out
It's place for us in time.

Far from the deafening sounds of the world we know,
Is this place of peace and serenity.
Rising up from the waters below,
In the security of these two hands that enfold us.

At this very moment,
As I close my eyes I can almost touch you.
I can see the way the sunlight dances through
The fox red highlights
Of your flowing titian colored hair.

I feel the satin softness of your skin.
The warmth and gentleness of your hand,
Lightly touching my cheek,
As my lips greet your hand with a loving kiss.

So clearly I can recall the first time our eyes met.
I can feel the gentle passion of our first kiss.
In the dark and empty hours I relive
That tender night when, flesh against flesh,
Our two bodies merged,
And became as one.

In your arms, I am the explorer.
As I gaze into those pale, copper/emerald eyes,
I can see a world yet to discover.
With you, one mere lifetime will never be enough.

I want to spend eternity with you.
Rediscovering you over and over again.
Here, safe within the hands of time.

In the center of the universe he stands
And he's got the whole word in his hands
A big blue marble we spin between his fingers
Unseen or unknown yet his presence still lingers
Some call upon his name in answer to their prayers
While laying open their hearts to show all it bares
The milky way is but a crown of stars upon his head
And when you are in his presence lightly must you tread
For he is the fire and brimstone of which the church preaches
And hard can be the lesson as the error of our way teaches
Just or unfair who can say when looking into the hearts of man
So too the will of God rest not so lightly on the solder of any clan
Maybe we should give thanks for his presence if only in mind
I fear the damage we would do with the truth we would find
