A MEDITATION FOR October 14


I walked the road.  Rain was in a sprinkle mode
I walked to my neighbors.   Most had left for home
After their annual reunion.  I walked back
Someone was going to pick me up
I waited and took time to wonder what my
World was coming to.  Many things to do and a
Body that was beginning to show its wear
Where will I go if my home sells?  Where will I
Find the peace that I would soon be leaving
All of my local work was for the honor and
Glory of God.  Most everything is in order, but
There is still much to do.  Somehow life unfolds
And all things falls into place

MY THOUGHTS AND STATEMENT

Days go by.  I sit, write about desires and miracles,
while waiting patiently.  What do I know?
Are expectations real?   Am I bold enough?
I move on, never stopping, always taking steps.
Where will they lead?  I have purpose.
Try to improve condition.  My life is full.
I have fallen.  Know what getting up means.
Have released my sins.  Sought forgiveness.
Released and forgiven those offending me.
Where is the glory?  
Dancing with clowns is disheartening.
Getting approval from idiots, who claim to be 
sacred administrators of justice.
What do they know?  
They have forsaken the many,
chased after false idols.  
Do not know mountains or the thrill of victory 
after having been beat back, too many times to count.  
That I am alive is a miracle;
am able to function, a miracle; 
desire to improve and help others, a miracle.
Still I wait patiently for more.  
I am not sullen.
There are prospects and time for me to act boldly.
Find happiness, which may be temporary, but so is life.
The hereafter will speak for itself.
For now I will flap my wings, 
angel wings, put them to human use.
Vow not to hurt anyone, stifle my pride, 
and celebrate loud and silent joy.
Participate at all levels.  Look for the Master in others.  
Refrain from judging, stay strong, and sing my songs of love.
No one needs to know, but they will see my glow and 
acknowledge it in their own way.  
How great is that?
Life is wonderful.  
Angelic manifestation is the only thing 
I have experienced that supersedes it.
