Merely Christmas!

Well, Merry Christmas, and I think it's great,
to come together with these families.
A blending of these cultures, learning hates,
and loves of these ones here for this short time.

A wind came through yesterday that brought a storm.
Could hardly see the road as we drove in.
We got to this beach house, and, I was torn,
between my comfort and those camping out.

They say it rained so hard in half an hour,
that the ocean had come up to where they camped.
And too I heard a fellow say, a fish he'd caught had complained that on the land it was too damp.

They saw a boat that tried to reach the shore,
but as the rain poured down the boat went up.
It steered into the sky, and somehow tore,
straight through the rain, above the trees, and perched up on the mountain top.

One bloke got caught out, in the wind and rain,
you couldn't tell him from a wrinkled shirt,
his skin had soaked up water, and to drain,
him, they hung him on the clothesline like skirt.

It was a shocker, what a day it must have been,
I can't exactly say that all that's true,
but, it's just what I'd heard, someone else had seen,
and, I just thought you'd like to hear it too!

The head, the heart, and the eye.

On wings from fairies, float these wholesome thoughts, from blessed books, and bottles frozen from, the fridge that freezes quicker than it ought, I slowly wait, my mind must now be thawed. Ideas too often carried on in haste, though, "fast" ain't wrong, it's slowliness that has, a wholesomeness, it chews enough to taste. I hope that I can slow down to a pace, to hold with hands that carry kinder thoughts, which have been stilled, and can be trusted in. The head must be a precious place, for sure, I'll never treat it like a garbage bin.

The Wise-dom of God

Beginning with the end that's given me, I try to use the strength I have from God. He shows me how, a better man I'll be, if trusting him, doesn't at all seem odd. I give him thanks for bread and too, for wine. The Lord has given all the things I need. His spirit's fruit that comes from love, divine. It makes me want his warnings here to heed. A blessing from my burden, he will make, inside me, so I'll be a blessing too. He'll teach me with his children, bread to break, Untill we can together drink wine, new! Together with the one who'll take our woes. The Earth and all within it will be glad! From bottom to the top, from heads to toes, and wipe the tears from all those who are sad. He said that he would come on clouds to bring, a dif'rent kind of change than those who rule, at present now, so, helpless ones can sing. A change will come for wise man, and for fool! Yeshua said, that his way is the one, to bring to us a light to stop o...

Mark ("my words") - from chapter 13

I'd listened in, and heard what Jesus said.. ..was after he was walking with his blokes. They'd said, "..that's quite a building, check those stones, out! What a sturdy looking thing it is!" "No, don't expect this place you see to last. It's only temporary, has a date. The 'best before' will run out, in the end. I'll shake your hand and tell you, this is fate." He said, and when they asked him, 'cross from there, as they were sitting on an olive mount. "Please, tell us, so that us four now can hear, when will all of these things, then come about?" "Be careful!", so he said, "Now, listen in.. For, many will come who say they are me. These phoney ones who claim to know the way, I'm sure that if you look for them, you'll see. And, kingdoms, countries, nations, go to war, to fight in battles all around the place. And, famines carry on, over a score. It's only the beginning, just ...
