Honey trails across the skies
staining the fabric at the loin
where the flowers shake as they stretch their neck
from the groins of twilight
and from there all praised the day for light has come

roses press their lips upon the ground
to give reverence for the Lord has given another day to display
their purpose here
what is the purpose of a single flower which mounts upon a stool so high
where Heaven's throne is up in the sky?

The sun in vestment and all
brushed its rusty belly
across the way
to the altar high
and millions of pilgrim, whom from tiny seed outstretched itself to the surface
of this grassy pew
await their orb like celebrant
dusting incense unto high
all beings bow and
sing glory to the Creator above
Whose hands rule with great love

Beauty is simplified here
All soul reveres the glory
which reigns right here
on this mounted hill
where a sermon has taken place
from the old and new testament of the Word

O all soul glorify the Name of the Lord
for His mercy endures forever
and ever

from afar
a distant traveler
red chested and feathered bound
rested upon the gnarled finger of a geyser folk
whose eyes are shaded by the bushy brows
of leaves
it does not know
O yes it does not know
where its next rest will be
for his foreign affairs

Ambassador
of richness
mild and meek
fragile and weak
gracious and musical companion
drowned in the wine of merriment
it sings with the soul of a soprano singer
its voice carries to the air
above the throne
its song burns like incense to the Heavens

A simple being
whose feathers shall molt and body perish
its soul uncertain where it shall transit towards
but for man we shall be quite certain
the Lord has made sufficient our daily bread

Remember what the Lord God has said?
For the creatures of the air does not harvest or toil
yet the Lord has provided for them
What more for us- we of little faith?
For we are worth much more than two sparrows
in the loving eyes of God

Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Sing glory to the Lord
Sing glory to the Lord

"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it." - Matthew 7:13

"Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows."- Matthew 10 :28-31

A parish priest of mine is in hospital because of health issues. I know that he has been fighting heart diseases and physical pain. He is such a good person. He was really one of the few priests who saw me without judgement, with pure love and concern.

I'll never forget when I went to confession and said "I was not good.."

and he cupped my cheeks, wiped my tears away and said "Listen here, you are doing good, you love those under your care, you are doing alright, you are good.."

and the look on his face said it all. He meant it, not just out of duty or saying it out of 'second nature' but he said it with authenticity, love and respect. I'll never forget it.

Please do pray for him. Thank you. I will pray for all of you too.
