In the World, Not Of It

truth

by Susan Irene Fox

When listening to my Father’s call

the world attempts to use disguise

to lead me into my downfall

when lies are truth and truth are lies.

The Gospels lift me up to soar,

and daily mind and heart restore.

 

The words of Jesus free my thoughts

and bring me back to God’s embrace

to focus on the things I ought;

on love, compassion and His grace.

He came not to condemn but save

and all my sins expunged, forgave.

 

Abiding in the Spirit shows

me how to be and how to live.

Christ’s light from Living Water flows;

this fact holds no alternative.

The truth from fruit’s essential seeds

is God’s great source from which He feeds.

 

Because I sustain nourishment

from my Savior’s bread of life,

His voice of love is sweet assent

which melts and calms the daily strife.

God always is my Number One;

His wisdom never is outdone.

 

So say your truth, but I know His.

I am to open heart and hands,

to welcome all, and more than this;

to care for orphans, widows and

to reconcile the world, employ

God’s grace and wisdom, love and joy.

 

“I guarantee this truth: every believer has eternal life. I am the bread of life.” (John 6:47-48)

“For this I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who cares for the truth hears my voice.” Pilate asked him, “What is truth?” (John 18:37-38)

And the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. (Galatians 5:22-23)

Flying Free

Flying Free

In the Clouds as the Sun Shall Rise
Into the Breeze, my Spirit Flies,
Like a Falcon, Sharp and Steep,
Hovering O’er the Secrets I Keep,
Past the Winsome Moon as she Smiles,
Through the Rainbow as she Beguiles,
My Spirit Dances Upon the Skies,
Leaving me Breathless with giddy Sighs,
As Up into the Clear Cosmos I Float,
Where Heaven’s Angels Wait and Dote
Upon my Every Care, Touching with Joy,
Gentle Wisdom to Employ
While I Dream of Flying Free
And My Spirit Releases the Turmoil in Me.

Inspired by the Beautiful Poem “Dreamscape” by Richard Dankers found at : http://richardankerswrites.wordpress.com/2014/02/24/dreamscape-2/

The Ancients

Wisdom Spanning countless Ages,

Witness to a thousand Dreams,

Watching from the Depths of Twilight,

Where Illusion masks more than it Seems.

Wonder of Beloved Creation,

Walking ‘neath your Verdant Tower,

Willows Guarding O’er your Gates,

Wondrous in Viridian Flowers.

Waking to the diminishing Day,

Wanton in her Fragrant scents,

Waning Light that once Held Sway,

Watchtower of The Ancients.

~Morgan~

Measure of unchanneled Mind,

Vision of Luminous Daytide, Singing,

Wisdom of unguarded Temples,

Mystery fortified and Contemplation Bringing;

As the Hours of Night descend,

As the Glass through which we Stare, Fades,

Lustrous as the Noonday Sun,

Billows in Waves of Impenetrable Shade.

Visitor from the Limitless Beyond,

Incomparable, Beyond our ken,

Stately entrance upon the Eastern Sky,

Breath substantial, though never again.

.

Silence stirring in Temporal Rhyme,

Splendor dimming the stars that Shine!

.
~Morgan~

Capture my Heart

Capture my Heart,

Whisper upon Dreams,

Thunder roiling from Elemental Streams;

Calling the Wisdom of Inspiration,

Dance in the Breeze of Intrepid Aspiration,

Whistle in the wind as Oden Sighs,

Spiraling Magic on the wind as it Flies,

Capture my Heart,

Sing upon Dreams,

Mystery Intoxicating with Mythical Themes!

Walking in the moonlight

With Glints of Moonlight upon the Wall,
A Cradle of Elegant Starlight, Glistens,
Watchful Heartbeats as they Fall,
Where Angels Pause as Faith Listens.

Tender in the Midnight Calm
Of Jocund Candleglow a-shimmer,
Softly, now, in Whispered Balm,
While doubt and fear grow dimmer.

The Pulsing of Celestial Wonder,
Stealing from Infinity so Far,
Beckons my Gaze like Joyous Thunder,
Or the Fleetly Falling Brittle Star.

Yet in Comparison of Day to Night,
Untold the Secrets Tending,
Luster fades as Day Breaks so Bright,
And Passion’s Ministrations, Bending.

Arch Your Gilded Wings, Oh Heaven,
Spread Your Wisdom like the Deepest Sea,
Food of Immortality, Sweetly Leaven,
Quietly Imparting Harmony.

Adrift upon the Ocean,

Playing Melody

Clear,

Silence Softly Intoning

Wisest Soul

I walk among your Viridian Shades,
Your Golden Spires and Russet Tones,
Wondering about all you’ve Seen,
Who you’ve Watched and who you’ve Known.
What Wisdom you could Whisper to me,
If only I would Pause to Hear,
Instead of stumbling on alone,
Mired in tugging doubt and fear.
Speak, to us, O Wisest Soul,
Who’s Stood Witness to the Shifting Time,
Make Cool our Frenzied Calamity,
Sharing all your Humble, Majestic Rhyme.

~Morgan~

Diadem

Listless Magic Singing within the Gilded Cage,
It’s Golden Bars A-shimmer in Secluded form,
Like Fortune Standing Mute Upon a Stage
While Blind and Deaf Parishioners to it swarm.
Paltry Hangs the Hour of Night in Shade,
It’s Ruddy Glimmer pale and out of Luster,
Like Majestic Dawn Beneath the storm Does fade,
While The Pouting Gales refuse to blow or bluster.
Upon this rusting Diadem, where Blush once Stood,
With Rose Hued Passion A-blaze in Fullest Glory,
Now hangs a cowl most drear, this graying hood,
Mute Testament to Time’s Tempestuous Story.
Yet in the Pallid Eye of this declining Glimmer,
Youth Retains Immortal Breath in Recollection’s Shimmer.

~Morgan~.
