Blanks
Laura 4d
When paging through lifes journey.
What do we see.
Ticks or crosses.
Let's begin the count, one two, three.
For every cross we see.
It was just another blank.
Of goals we did not reach.
Or missions we did not fulfill.
So today a day as such as this.
Let's counteract, the blanks.
Filling every page, with visions, dreams and heartfelt cries.
As they come, to life on the pages.

Heart Break.
Laura 4d
If you break my heart.
Will you mend it.
Will you wipe away the many tears.
That I shed for only you.
Will you replace the light that shone forth.
As my eyes lingered only on you.
Will you fix this broken vessel.
That was perfect when you met it.
Or will you walk away.
And say, let's just call it a day

Humility
Laura 4d
Humility is not found, in bowing down.
Or refusing to face, the truth.
But it's found in self sacrifice.
As you see the plight, of others.

Freedom
Laura 4d
I walk,I walk, I walk.

I sing because, I'm happy.
I dance because, I'm free.

Time
Laura 5d
Time passes by.
Day and Night.
Day and Night.
Seasons come and Seasons go.
Was your dreams put into flight.
Or do they just lay dormant.
So a day, as such as this.
Rise to the occasion.
And put your dreams into flight ๐Ÿ›ซ.

Victory
Laura Aug 20
Victory is not balanced on power.
Nor wealth,worldly treasures or the best paid job.
But our victory is found in Him.
Through perseverance, pain and suffering.
And most of all endurance.
Having stood the test of time.
The battles won.
Overcoming them all.
We wear the Victors  Crown.
First ATM out of order, second out of order.
It cost me a twenty Km walk to the next one and back.
This would be the test of endurance.
When the body is tired.
It becomes mind over matter as you push forward.
And this is our victory.

Distant land

There is a distant land.
A promise to all.
Where the joy bells are ringing
When we all come to rest.

Oh Tender Man
Laura Aug 20
Hush me to sleep my tender man.
As whisperes of love, trickle through my ears.
Hum me a lullaby, as gentle as the morning dew.
Cradled in your arms, is where I want to be.
Your tender touch, your warm embrace.
Is like lather ๐Ÿงผ to my skin.
Oh my dear tender man.
In wonderland I am.
Caressed by your tenderness.
Is like music to my soul

Traps
Laura Aug 20
Traps, Traps,Traps.
The  offer for fame, gain and glory.
Is a daily broadcast.
Multiply your money.
A quivering desire, to get rich quick.
Man of your dreams,
To some a cruel reality, as death they have found.
Jobs, Jobs a stark reality.
As you sold into slavery.
The devices we have, has so much to offer.
As a man feasts his eyes,on the next podcast, hoping to find something that tickles his desire.
The light we seek, but the darkness we find.
As just another trap is laid on the internet.
Beware.
Be Vigilant
That into a trap you do not fall.

Pride
Laura Aug 20
Line by line.
Precept by precept.
Here a little, there a little.
Breaking Rules.
Breaking Values.
Breaking Who You Are.
Dignity flushed down the toilet.
As you rise to the occasion.
For fame and glory.
Money your master.
The world your possession.
Sin your doorkeeper.
As you destroy those around you.

Life
Laura Aug 20
Wake up, eat, work and sleep ๐Ÿ’ค.
Wake up, eat, work and sleep ๐Ÿ’ค.
A routine.
A rat race.
A never ending cycle.
Life passes by.
Nothing gained, nothing lost.
But precious time wasted.

Peace ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ
Laura Aug 20
How beautiful is it to be, captivated in the stillness of the day.
When the voices, and noises around.
Seems to be in a distant land.
And the earth is at rest.
Peace.       Peace.        Peace.
A soothing effect.
A time of rest

Letting Go
Laura Aug 19
Two can not walk together,if they are not in agreement.
Holding on is painful.
As you beat yourself to death.
So let us do some rearranging .
Throwing out the baggage that holds us down.
Rising above the situation.
Dispersing of that.
Which holds us bound.
A new lifeline.
Free to love, free to laugh and free to just be yourself.

Soar
Laura Aug 18
Let's take a glimpse, into the flight of an eagle ๐Ÿฆ….
Her strength is found in her wings, and this she has much to boast of.
It takes her to heights unreachable,as she soars higher and higher into the deep blue sky
Dives and turns made with such press ion.
As just another manoeuvre she makes.
Her majestic size is her glory.
And the skies she thinks is hers.
Now let us take another glimpse.
Into a journey made by man.
Easy for some and harder for others.
But a journey that has to be done.
Let fear not grip us.
Let bonds and chains โ›“๏ธ not hold us.
So free we can not be.
Let us rather soar on eagles wings.
And in Him we find our rest.
For those who wait upon the Lord.
He shall renew their strength.
They shall mount up on the wings of an eagle.
They shall run and not grow weary.
They shall walk and never faint.

The Broad Road
Laura Aug 18
The broad road, has many pleasures, illuminating the way for those out at play.
The glimmer, the glamour.
The flashing lights and those danced filled day's.
Pleasure galore and great ecstasy.
This road a good one, and hard to let go.
But as time drifts by.
And the body grows old.
The  road  is empty.
And there's no pleasures to fill this void.

Blessings
Laura Aug 18
Ask and you shall be given.

Treasure's are not found in heaven.
But in a heart, that truly seeks.

Symbol
Laura Aug 18
Love is a symbol.
When two hearts entwine.
A ring a token.
And not to be replaced.

Freedom

Freedom is when one is in flight ๐Ÿ›ซ.
Soaring to heights.
Beyond one's reach.

Love or Hate
Laura Aug 18
Let us sit down and reason
Which is more destructive.
Love or Hate.
Love turned to hate, weaves a pathway of destruction.
But on the other hand.
Hate turned around.
Brings restoration.

Ink's Midnight Sigh
Laura Aug 18
In the darkness of night.
Ink flows a silent delight.
Quill scratches, whisper's low.
As words pour forth, secrets grow.

Sighs of sorrow, joy and pain.
Etched deep within, every page.
Stories born as emotion's flow.

In the stillness ink's, voice whisper's.
Tales of love, of dreams on fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ.
A midnight sigh,a heartfelt cry.
Ink's darkness, words touch sky.

Claim It
Laura Aug 17
Have you not heard.
Well come gather together, and let me tell you.
The Word says.
We shall have life.
And life more abundant.
Did you hear abundant.
This is your claim.
So live and do not die.
Fulfill your desires.
Fulfill your wishes.
Fulfill your dreams.
Reach for the stars โญ.
Climb a mountain or two.
Swim the deepest ocean ๐ŸŒŠ.
So at the end of time.
Your saying  will go.
Regrets I have none.
I have lived my life.
And a life .
Fulfilled.
Life is to be lived.
Through the good and bad.
Never letting go.

Gather
Laura Aug 16
He is our provider.
He is our healer.
He is our strong tower.
He is the rock of our salvation.
He is able.
And He is ever present,in time's of trouble.
So as we gather, as a band of poets.
Let us glorify Him.
Because every talent we own or possess.
Has come from Him.

Let the light in
Laura Aug 15
Darkness rise's,it invades,it forces.
Pushing, Pushing as it tries to dispell the light.
No invitation did he have.
He just became the unsuspecting guest.
Trying to destroy what was not his.
But we have the victory.
Light has the power to dispell darkness.
And this is our victory.
The power and the victory is ours.
As we give a victory shout.
Darkness you have no power.
So we command you to flee.
Now come let you and I, gather together.
As we beckon the light to come.
Light of the world.
Light of the world.
Please
Come
In
And
Stay.
Word of encouragement.

The Beholder
Laura Aug 15
The Beholder gazes down from above.
As He admires His crafted ones.
Each a different brand and make.
And personalities to.
I'm sure He has a laugh or two.
As He watches them at play.
I'm sure even God has a sense of humor.

A Penny
Laura Aug 15
I lost a penny, I lost a penny.
Did you find it.
Yes I did.
Yes I did.
A penny for your thoughts.
Well this is my sons phone.
On Tuesday he took it, for reasons of his own.
I was a little angry, because there were a few poems I wrote.
But all things work together for those who love the Lord.
I had a good time praying, reading my Bible, and receiving word from the Lord.
He just brought it back now.
So I have some catching up to do.

Falling in Love.
Laura Aug 12
Oh the beauty of love โค๏ธ.
Captured in a moment.
By just one glance.
His eyes so gentle,as he lulls you away.
Then one touch, oh just one touch.
That sends tingles, down your spine.
His voice like a melody, ringing in your ears.
Soon everything is lost.
As it becomes full blown love ๐Ÿ’ž.

Cover Me
Laura Aug 12
When the storms are raging.
And the winds are howling.
And we are being tossed too and fro.
We need cover.
So we reach out to our Master.
As we say.

Cover Me.
Under your Shelter.

Marriage is not rosy red ๐Ÿ’.
As it comes with lumps and bumps.
But it is a binding force.
That should be held with poise.

Burdens
Laura Aug 11
Let's not carry our burdens on our shoulders.
Or is it our sleeve,as if to say.
But let us hand them over to Jesus.
And see what He can do.
All going through persecution, pain ,anger , rejection, sickness, loneliness and any other form not spoken of.
Let's hand it over.
Aug 11 · 41
Space
Laura Aug 11
A time of refuge.
A time of rest.
A time to gather your self.
From those voices that echo out.
Not to build, but to break.
This is your privilege.
You have earned it.
Enter in,lose yourself, fade away,drift into the calm oceans.
As it takes effect, wrap your self into this space.
It's your's.
It's your's.
And you have a right to be there.
Time out,
From chaos.

The Beauty of Creation
Laura Aug 11
The sun,look how he boasts.
As he rises from the East.
A burning ball of fire, emitting sunshine to Gods people.
The moon with it's hazy look, to give light to the night
The star's a brilliant sight,as they display their glory.
And what of our dear Earth.
The grass so green, the trees so tall.
As they dance to the breeze.
The roses, the daffodils,lilies and flowers unnamed, filling the earth with colours.
Colours of brilliance, that captures the eye.
Herbs , and vegetables of all  kinds springing forth.
To feed a hungry man.
Do we ever take time to stop.
Think.
Look.
And appreciate.
The beauty of creation.
Or do  our eyes remain blinded.
Let's let go of our routine.
Wake up.
Eat.
Work.
Sleep.
And take time out to smell the roses

Fill Me
Laura Aug 11
There is a constant cry, from many.
When  cups, run dry and they are empty.
Fill me.
Fill me.
Is a silent plea, as trials are many.
Fears seemed to overflow,as unto a river.
So there is a constant cry from many.
As the cry goes out
Fill me.
Fill me.
Until I overflow,

The Source.
Laura Aug 11
He fills us daily.
The young the old.
The rich and the poor.
The just and the unjust.
The very air, we daily breath.
He  supplies.
The very blood that runs, through our veins.
If every drop of blood is taken out.
Will we live.
No.
The high content of water, that our bodies have.
To preserve the body, from decay.
He is our daily source.
He is our all.
So let us cling unto, our source.
Because our lives are in His hands.
Appreciation of the life line
That He supplies

Rainbows
Laura Aug 11
Are we tired, of chasing pretty rainbows ๐ŸŒˆ.
Are we tired of spinning round and round.
So  a day as such as this,we will not chase.
But obtain everything, that we desire.
As we hold hands.
With our Maker.

Hope
Laura Aug 11
I awake to a life full of pain.
Destruction seems to follow my every step.
Shame and scorn, my daily bread.
But hope is what I hold on to.
As I not, what my tomorrow holds.
For all who feels lost.
There is hope.
I'm waiting for that *** of gold.
Come join hands with.me, as we wait.

Space
Laura Aug 10
In the vastness of space, I find my nest,
A world away from noise, where I can rest.
Comfort wraps around me, like a gentle breeze,
As I soar through stars, my soul at ease.

Lost in the cosmos, I find my way,
Free from the world's din, in a celestial bay.
Thoughts unfold like nebulae, expansive and wide,
As I dance among planets, my spirit inside.

In this weightless realm, I spread my wings,
Unfettered by bounds, my heart sings.
The universe's silence, a symphony divine,
Echoes my heartbeat, a rhythm so fine.

Here, I'm untethered, free to roam,
In the infinite expanse, my spirit's home.
No noise can reach me, no worries can cling,
In space's vast comfort, my soul takes wings.

The Roll
Laura Aug 10
What a beautiful day it would be.

Untitled
Laura Aug 10
Dear native regions ,I foretell.
From what I feel at this farewell.
That where so ever my steps may tend.
And where so ever, my course shall end.
If in that hour a single tie.
Survive of local sympathy.
My sons will cast, the backward view
The longing look on you alone
By William.Wordsworth .
Enjoy.

Winter
Laura Aug 10
Oh winter, how you have shattered my bones.
Your grip was cruel, your grip was icy.
And warmth i could not feel.
Time has flown so quick, and August now has come.
So I bid you farewell dear winter.
As you move on, to find another grip.
We had quite a cold winter this year.

Stars
Laura Aug 7
There's a saying that goes.
The star's are not aligned to be
together.
So come let's capture, two lovers, beneath this starry skies.
Fire burning, through every fibre.
As they gaze upon the stars.
A dress, a ring, a celebration, becomes the order of that heat.
Time soon reveals the truth.
That these two, were never meant to be.
But as the stars, thrive on each other.
So do these, two lovers,who once was on heat.
A match made in heaven
Mismatched by far.
But if departed.
These two will not thrive.
So like star's they will wander.
But never depart.
Some couples were never aligned to be together.
But holding on is what they do.
