CHRISTIAN REALITY

Some get caught up in titles or
a name implying virtue and sanctity
Reading words carefully written
for an agenda takes much care, but
taking the time is essential

When they put their talents toward
destructing the President by
any means possible, one group,
“Christianity Today” in calling for
the President’s Impeachment
misses the point of being Christian

For Christianity has inherent gifts
including understanding, kindness,
forgiveness, grace and hopefulness,
selflessness and encouragement

To have a goal of removing
the President from office is
completely contrary and goes
against everything that Christ taught us

Ecclesiastes states that surely
there is no one on earth so righteous
as to do good without ever sinning

The President has a flawed past and
he isn’t always politically correct, but
he has protected those with no voice
and cannot protect themselves

He watched four previous administrations
Stand by doing little while
the world was being flipped upside down

He has given up his life to defend the meek
while at the same time he has been slandered,
attacked, and verbally assaulted

“Christianity Today” has joined with
the leftists who are anti-Semitic
calling for the boycott of Israel and
the killing of our Jewish brothers and also
the murder of children in the birth canal

The President sees their desire to
root out God from everything American,
the desire of the vipers in the swamp
to teach us morality while getting rich
by being bought off by the Chamber of Commerce,
the Pharmaceutical Industry,
insurance companies and big business and
many other entities which are subverting our interests

Our President has been put on trial by law
just as Jesus was put on trial
It is not God’s law which is being used
He has not been accepted as leader
because he threatens those with the power

They do not like him because
he puts the working class first and
gives voice to the voiceless

Those in the swamp will have to
answer to the God they deny and
explain why they ignore His precepts
and worship the golden calf purchased
by the middle class paying their taxes

In the meantime those Christian in the true meaning,
love and defend our President who acts for
the voiceless and has lifted the well being of
people from every culture, race and creed

“Christianity Today” will be answering as well,
but not in the way they had in mind

TIME TO GO

Eight o’clock light
Filters through evergreens
Casting no shadows
Brightens the snow
Trees are still
Gray clouds hold steady
In the south
A promise of more white
There is no movement
But signs of earlier searches
Animals, mostly deer
Working hard for their feed
It is cold
Eight degrees above zero
I wonder about the roads
An earlier start
Would be wise
The calm before the storm

Don’t think about reward
You have this day
Others are out there
You may see them
Sense a struggle
Offer a helping hand
It is cold for them, too
Any good deed will do
Also try to slow down
Don’t be tempted to scurry
You will miss too much of life
Just watch others in a hurry
Life is so precious
Live every moment
Doesn’t matter about shadows
Birds may not be in the air
A lonely feeling may settle
Don’t let it get you down

Be prepared now
It is time to go

FROLICKING WITH LIFE

There is an order
I try to follow
Like to feel rhythm
When I’m in my flow
Everything natural
Comfortable feeling
What it’s all about
Part of my expression
Never boring to me
I make that so
Play games with emotion
Make my own show
People may follow
Try to keep up
I give them credit, but
They don’t have my strut
I don’t shout out
With mockery
It’s my private game
My personal victory

I know, too, that
There are other rhythms
Motion and order
Leaving me behind
I like that situation
And like to dwell
I can catch up
Once I have the touch
I keep it secretive
No one knows
What I’m doing
Or why
It is just life
These things I do
Life competed fairly
Played by the rules
Always be fair
Pump up with kindness
A fool-around; enjoy yourself
Avoid the convoluted mess

WINTER WINDS

The roaring
Like a woman’s scorn
Won’t be tempered
By manly wishes

Danger lurks
Seek your shelter
Quiet time
Is not for now

Time was had
To prepare
Wasted chances
Won’t take you there

Winter winds
Part of the season
Won’t be bought off
For any reason

A woman’s scorn
Part of life
Right or wrong
Knows no season

Winter winds
Like any winds
Are only ill
When they blow no good

Take the wind
Take the sound
Reminders that life
Has no bounds

Never to control
Never to mind
Your own pathway
Is what to find
