Is lasting global peace an intangible imagination
Has it escaped from the grace of earnest promise.
Does it fall through outstretched hands as porous sand
And now assume the solitude of illusion’s barren frame.
Will children forever be ensnared by its anguish deep
And widows wear the sackcloth of ritual lamentation
Over the fatal disintegration of treasured family bonds,
While fatigued fathers curse the endurance of combat.
Will we constantly live with the presence and news of wars
Where the presence of tranquility simply disintegrates into
The strife of bombardment and the barrage of conflict, to
Eclipse the sincere hope of reassuring and lasting concord.
Will the chapters of existence, but only hence sadly recite, the
Steady accompaniment of tragedy and death with hostilities,
As the frequency of catastrophic battle adopts the constancy of time
That all then lie conquered under the flag of helpless surrender.
Has humanity failed in its obligation to avert this course
And will limb, life and blood line the paths to no escape
Where there is no refuge from the ghoulish nightmares
That torture the captive and the apparent free likewise.
Slumber not, ye responsibility of humanity, amid the carnage
Allowing battle’s transgression to perpetuate its will, till harmony
In capitulation hath no recourse, when all cataclysmic occurs
Living none to truly attend to the reconciliation of harmony.

Refrain from courting the seductive enticement
Of the dastardly but evidently harmful trap,
For attendant to and within the darkness of the pit
Lie ills of ruinous and horrendous proportion.
Although alluring it may appear, as it beckons
With the tantalizing aroma of feigned attraction,
Endeavour not to accept its deceptive invitation
Wherein disaster of certain takes sure habitation.
Rather, with resolve, listen and follow ardently
Wisdom’s refrain, and pursue ye so earnestly
The alternative promise of hope’s true reality,
And that which is patently of responsible order.
For even though it, may emerge and fully unfold
Only whence its dawning is but timely and due, the
Persisting triumph, over that ominous snare, which
Loomed so treacherously to derail the benign spirit,
Will multiple the reward of faithful patience, and
Coupled with the bounty of a virtuous promise,
Justify the endurance that directed your upright steps
And sustained your days along the propitious course.

Clutter said: I do need some order to this chaos.
Organization said: It is but simple. Everything in its place and a place for everything.
Clutter replied: Well, it may be easy for you to accomplish because that is the order of your strengths.
Organization emphasized: If you get rid of what you do not need, create a place for everything you need and put everything you need in its place, you will come to revile disorganization as I do.

We are all elements within the greater cause.
Therefore, we must seek and find our roles
And points of positive connection with others,
Towards the dignified respect of, and certainly
For the advancement of the cause of humanity.
Your actions count!

Which is it?
It is because I say it is or it is because it is.
It is because I say it is or is it because it is.
It is because I say it is because it is.
Because it is I say it is because it is.
I say it is because it is.
It is because it is.
Because it is, it is.

Now that with expectancy we bid welcome to 2014
And resolve with determination to seek and embrace
Our portion of the bountiful promise amid this new year,
Let us not in hasty abandon cast into oblivion the passage of 2013.
For it, likewise came upon us as a new beginning of possibilities and hope.
And though, its moments have forever dissipated into the tunnel of existence.
Yet, within that past, that seems to fade deeply into the recesses of time
Truly elusive, lies unchanging the peaks and valleys of life’s previous course
Traversed within then concrete space, transforming into earned experience
To anchor our future paths with enriched knowledge and cultivated wisdom.
Thus as the new commences, forget ye not the instructive lessons of old
Rather, in its totality, let that year’s long journey, like others past, always
Guide future contemplation and choice towards the bounty embedded
Within the renewed cycle of prospects and horizons of the evolving year.
Thank you 2013.

Cherish each of the moments you live
And live to cherish the moments lived.
For it is but a short time given to all, within which
To embrace the gift in all its dimensions,
And make the best of the precious opportunity.
Rather than squander it in the hopelessness
Of despair and self-doubt, nay don ye the vest of
Steadfast courage and resolve undeterred to
Triumph and soar with the eternal winds of hope
Towards the promise of the fullness of life.
Therefore, my friend, minimize regret . . .
Love life, live free, be kind, and live well.

The span of life is not boundless . . .
Therefore, with all determination
Pursue your dreams, and resolve to climb
The mount Everest of your dreams.

Father, I close my eyes and there you are
Ever so real…
Eyes still closed, I reach out towards you
And I can touch you …
You smile, and I smile back as I cherish every moment,
Not wanting to let go, not wanting to open my eyes
But in time, eyes open, and no longer can I hold you
In the confluence of the subconscious and memories.
Though time has flown by, ironically, it has stood still
For the anguish, remains harshly acute and the loss irreparable
As on that awful day, alas, we bid the dreaded farewell.
Yet, I cling unto the faith of the great salvation
That when all time here shall of certain cease, and in
Everlasting triumph over death, free of sorrow’s pain
We actually reunite, at last, in the heavenly realm
It will be forever and to be parted no more, amen.
