just
before
the
wicked storm breaks
while
young birds
clinging
with
all their might
to
the
strong stiff branches
of
the
sycamore tree
yes
we
are
the
stiff branches
that
bend and sway
but
we do not break
and
here
to
shelter thee

as long as
the
stars are shining
the
lord is
my daily bread
thus
ask
the lord
for
the
shepherd's light
to
walk by faith
and
not by sight
as long
as the spirit
moves me
as long as the
stars are shining
still
towards
the
Shephard's light

once upon a time
Muhammad Ali said,
i
am not afraid of
any man
nor
afraid of anything
in
this  
whole wide world
i am
only afraid of
the
power of
almighty god
until
i
step inside
the
boxing ring
i
have
no fear nor doubt
in my heart and soul
thus
i
shall not
fear any man
only the power of God
before each fight
Ali would go to
his ring corner and pray
at the sound of the bell
Ali starts to stick and move
while
he
floats like a butterfly
and
stings like a bee
when
Ali
steps inside the ring
Ali is the greatest
to me

In this pouring rain
They take away our names
We march into these trains
Who are we to blame
To live in concentration camps
The light who shines is dim
We wear these cloths of death

the casualties of  war
it shocks me
to the core
the
barbed wire fences
at your door
then
we ask
for peace
once more

The edge of
Your smile,
As free as
A bird
Now, we
Can fly

When we
Look deep into
The tender eyes of love
Reflections turn this hollow soul
Images quarrel with our hearts
Knowing this love shall pass me by

the
walls
shall lean in
to
listen
when
truth
speaks again
and
the
light
shall
cleanse
the
heart and soul

spiritual eyes
shall
open wide
what
is
more possible
to behold
when
your
tainted eyes are closed

Let me be
This phantom
Of the night
Deliver this
Pale moon
Behind the fragile trees
Seek warmth
In this river of light
Adorn this shallow sea
That follows thee
To the arms of night
Steady victory
Secures these stars,
In-flight
Sings out of key
Bring
every ounce of breath,
From your lungs
When you
Speak of me

Let our hearts know
what our hands shall do
and I know for sure
to embrace you more  
yet to touch your tender soul
Forevermore and nothing less
Oh, what young lovers
must do as I confess
thus to seal our faith
with serendipity and grace
enchanted with
red blue and green light
with a bit of indigo
in between them
so much so
thus to find
a quiet place to
for our love to flourish so
that we embrace
this sacred moment more
with a gentle kiss
upon your sweet lips
and surely to know
anywhere the heart must go

thy
heart
like
the
sacred butterfly
is
transformed
through
the
light of God
yes
he
will provide
yes
he w

love
you shall not
erase me
nor
shall you
replace me
than
our
love is
inseparable
only
because
your
love
embrace me
