The Love of a Grandmother

This little heart of mine loves you
more with each day passing.
I’m overflowing with joy;
I cannot possibly contain
the sheer amount of love
I have for you.
Your hugs are the best,
your smile is the brightest,
and your laugh is the...

Effective Listening

Effectively listening.
With undivided attention given.
Is effective for comprehending.
Understanding.
And communicating.
Sharing
Being understood.
Effectively.
Exchanging conversation.
Learning to listen.
Without distracting to interrupt.

Only If She Was Mine

time i see them im drowning in despise,
she makes me want to cry,
her eyes tell their own stories,
ones i know aren’t lies,
the way she looks at him,
will never be the same as mine,
i don’t understand...

I Burn For You

I was burning while you came blaming me for the smell of ashes,
blind to see you were holding the box of matches,
I was burning when you first laid your hands on me, tears filling my eyes,
as yours are unrecognizable,
I am struggling to break...

SALTY STONES

A balding lump on the top of his head - an intermediate figure that looks like Nobody's; he is still waiting for the blood-red dragon-Sunset, to see if he will send the welcoming silver stars to him. He got the Tooth of Time as artificial teeth,...

No More Curse

Love yourself
If God were counting every year
I would already have an ocean
He knows my heart
Every lie you or I have spoken
Lies turn innocent people into villains
Depression is a silent killer

I love you
I love you
I love you

He...

Cherished by Mom

In you, dear Mother, my pride resides,
No hate could ever in my heart abide.

Nine months within your loving embrace,
You nurtured me with boundless grace.

You taught me to speak, to write, to stand,
Guided me with a gentle hand.

A part...

Unloved

Some many grew up to become adults.
Feeling unloved.
Or not enough of it to get.
To say they have had too much of this.

Yet strange as it is,
God has blessed...
Them, us and others.
With talents and gifts,
To explore and adventure...
A...

Happy Mother's Day, Mumsy!

A happy mother's day to mumsy,
From a sappy son that is so clumsy,
With no regrets a letter and a rose to send,
If only I had the cash to spend day's on end,
Instead a poetry written I hope becomes nice to read,
Eventually one day you may find...

Certainty of Testimony

He who came by water and blood,
The Holy Spirit testifies;
Just like Noah endured the flood,
The triune God will not tell lies.

For the Spirit has told the truth,
As all three will always agree;
That you knew about since your youth,
With...

A world of fake love!

I hear this word!

 This four letter word!
Yet when you really mean it!

 It's felt and not heard!
I may like you!

 I may even love you with the love of God!
Yet, I will not lie, I do not love those, who pray for my demise!

 Phony and fake!
