THE GOOD LORD.

The GOOD LORD,Has been good to me, why oh why will I never see , he suffered and died on the CROSS you see ,but that's not all HE rose us and can bring us back from waywardness and error. To save us from unending terror , that last's and last's forever , and ever the starkness, the darkness and the terrible emptyness . Can be our lot ,If we choose to be all lost, I hope that choice is not for me . Or for any other thee , its so easy to stray and go the wrong way , hence the great need to continue to pray . to our SAVIOR and our KING, whose reign will bring everlasting peace . To all who believe in a heavenly abode where all can reside in , Neverending joy where we will live with our SAVIOR for ever . whose words are TRUTH for all time and ETERNAL .
Joe.

May Morning

At half past four ,the birds did sing , A beatiful song it's sound so sweet . I thanked the GOOD LORD, on this lovely May morn, for being alive , for having been born ,of all the creatures of the earth , the birds must rank among the first , a beatiful way to start the day one of many I hope and pray ,to hear bird song for just one hour , I thank the GOOD LORD. for a lovely choir , who can lift our spirit higher , and higher, after the song was over and done,praise to the birds that had now moved on, and sing for all as they moved along , and keep on singing for everyone.

Consider Life

Life is Unconditional it's crucial and never superficial , but it's always benifical , not to fear , but prepare to be confessional , to be obsessional can often be distressional . Leading to being aggressional , or hopelessly recessional , and in other ways distressional , hopefully truthfully, happily and prayerfully can lead to our security , and be much more a reassurity , not GODLESS, or hopeless , but honesty and goodness can lead to our completeness . In a world
that seems in pieces , due to our own carelessness, GOD wants us all to live properly the world wants us all to behave improperly , I'v been near to the edge of hell a place . I would not wish to dwell , nor would I wish it on another , those torments are unlike no other . to those who do not hold LIFE dear, look around our planetary sphere , it teems with life it's cause is clear , the wonderous sounds of the birds of the air , must surely tell us the GOOD LORD'S here ,the reason he wants all to share and came to show us that HE does care . To those who do not hold life dear but cancels it out as though it were dross must surely bear a very heavy loss , pray change your minds , your hearts , your will and heed GOD'S call to do his will . have no fear of trouble or strife , when your MOTHER OUR LADY is in our life she's supremely serene ,she's our heavenly QUEEN and she appeared to me in my undeniable dream . JOE .

TRYING

We can be brilliantly Good, or terribly bad , we can be happy and joyful or mournfully sad . we can be up at the dawn or lie in the pawn , it's so easy you see to be any of these , like hello or good bye , it's as easy as pi ,so long as we do not habitually lie .That disposition leaves us in the wrong condition , try and always be good , in ways we know that we should , that's a secret we find when we keep GOD , in mind who will help us to find that peace of mind . HE will help us to reach all that's really sublime , so seek what is good and all that we could , Be helpful , respectful , in way's that are gentle . Dont listen to lies or slickful , deceit, that's satan's domain and all that's profane , but the grace GOD , can give us saves us all from what harms us.

BE AWARE

Our awareness and , readyness is our best way for preparedness the crudeness and the rudeness leads to nothing but more lewdness, and certainly not more pureness . Our laws are there to guide us through the way we live will help us give to who have to struggle through .that's true its nothing new , but how we view the world of now , and how our lives reflect it so . hope my rhyming is in good timing for a world that goes on pining , for all the things that matter , hope I am not the one to scatter . the good the true and all that really matters , and not the vanity that shatters , if we have pride that can be good in work or toil ,but not to spoil , our souls desire is to lift us higher to the GOOD LORDS angelic choir , and not to satans mire and fire, be aware be awake dont let the devil betake , prayer hope and trust leads to GOD'S love for all of us.

RETIRED BRICKY.

Now that I have reached my slowness , there is no more go,ness ; for someone who was once quite fast , but needless to say that could not last .Our lives tells us what we need to know we cant be always on the go , that's the way GOD made it so . The paces that we once could take or the races we could , in partake . Are memories of those years long gone , and cannot bring them back , unlike a Song still I like to think of the years gone past , and the races that were lost or won . when everything that life could give was vital , and lively , and full of verve .But I'v failed in life too in so many ways , still was able to do the
work I knew for fifty years , and a little bit too. So hopefully I will still carry on until the GOOD LORD calls me home , to join the Loved ones that I, once knew .

IN PRAISE OF THE HOLY TRINITY.

I, think I have some more poems to write , but my limit is hopefully out of sight there are so many things I would like to say . So any day can be every day , THE HEAVENLY FATHER of us all is there for everyone who calls . there is no limit to what he can do for everyone that's me and you , ask him to help us to concquer our sins the graces are there at our request . when we put ourselves in his hands we are at rest , our reasons for being here is a GOD given right HE ceaselessly helps us throughout all of our life . If fear makes us doubt then let our FAITH make us stout , just look all about at the works HE has made but in our world , and for those who try to take away our FAITH in him he is always there before any of them . I mean no disrespect to anybody but GOD IS GOD , and we cannot live without him .Do not try to shut GOD out for if we pray instead he will help us out . No task too great for him to fail no life too small that HE does not share . With his SON and the HOLY SPIRIT he gives us LIFE and lives within us he's our maker , he's our SAVIOR so GOD is love GOD is LIGHT he help's us all throughout our life , when we fall or when we fail he help's us to endure our pain , AMEN. JOE.

A Short Prayer

My Prayer to day from my earthly home are only known to GOD alone .HE gives me grace to keep on trying and gives me strength to keep on living , with JESUS our SAVIOUR how can we fail with prayer hope and trust , he grant's us poor sinners his mercy at first .

Corporate Greed

OH, Goverment, OH, Goverment what have you done you have put the poor pensioners out of the sun , now the young and the old are out in the cold . through Greed and excess we're in a terrible mess , withdevelopers grieving and Bankers decieving a Goverment conceding to their every demand, How long will the tax man become like the Axeman will the,country and all
go broke, will there be enough poke to help all the People who are sick , sore, and broke.So will e nd here and now but I will hope that somehow the Govermentwill bow to the peoples request for fairness,and truth at the end the best for all concerned is get the Bankers to pay back the monies to the banks they Misgoverened by being to clever by HALF as the saying goes . No disrespect to the ordinary bank employee.

FEAR

Will Ibe overcome by Fear,or will I treasure all that's dear those who matter those who care .What are my feelings of what's good and true , Fear is like a thief not new it brings sorrow it brings grief ,If I should wallow in self pity its negative. Something JESUS would never do , he taught us all what fear can do . It robs us of our solace and truth,it robs us of our courage too, its not so easy this I know the fear we know comes from down below . Courage comes from up above our faith will help us to overcome all that stultifys our soul . fear denies us to want to live but prayer can help us to survive, and help overcome the horror that it can bring .JESUS helps us to overcome our fear he told us HE is always near ,HE helps the lonely , helps the old , helps the downtrodden helps the bold . HE forgives us sinners when we fall, with graces and favours available to all if we ask for forgivness to renew our life . GOD in his mercy will put our fears to flight , with faith hope and trust we overcome all the worst , when we put GOD FIRST.
JOE.

HOPE.

Will I begin the day by going away , and fullfill my dream at some other scene there is a place ,I long to be but its to obscure to see what is it that's calling me. To go to where I long to be is it the LADY , at the grotto that will show me what I ought to seek. and find at life's near end that final place where all can mend, their broken lives when they arrive at that special place up in the skies. where there will be no more lies and everyone will know the truth , about everything they have ever sought shall now show forth all of its glory .In all its forms there will be no more jealousy no more pain and everyone will be much the same. I mean by praying we're home at last by heavens bequest we are there at last .So lets pray hope and trust the GOOD LORDS, promises include all of us.

Longing

I am writing poetry , could be any day its better than just fading away . THE ALMIGHTY FATHER , works in myesterious ways now that I feel more confident in every way. The GOOD LORD is helping us in every way every day .Perhaps my poem will be read some day its not that hard to write some words as long as I dont become too absurd . JESUS advises us to pray, well that's okay and it is so easy just to say JESUS, I' trust in you each and every day I love you and mean every word I, pray. who else can save our troubled world , but JESUS the saviour of all mankind , LORD show us your ways teach us your paths for I know that I have been unthankful lot. for you have the words of ETERNAL LIFE.

A.FRIGHT

As I wondered through the night I had an awful Fright ,I saw myself alight, I was a terrible sight have I ended up here below ,a place that we all know .you are here because of sin I prayed it was a dream , such sights I have never seen and hope its not to be is this what comes for being bad, of living life without much care its not the reason why we are here . But year on year, Idid not care was selfish , and thoughtless and devil may care the price we may pay of the warnings ignored , of a life without purpose by being careless and useless and obsessed by the self that is clueless ,and hopeless Ihope that the fright that I got on that night , was a nightmare that ended with my soul being redemptive ,from flames everlasting and torments unending , so make your acts of true sorrow to-day not to-morrow keep the devil at bay and dont let him gainsy

, remember JESUS, is SAVIOUR the devil the deceiver ,lies and falsehoods are all that he knows . Ignore all his claims else you will end up in flames but GODS TRUE WORD for heavens reward .

WILL

Will i sit down and mope , or will i get up and cope . will i stand up and fight or will i run , or take flight .is the person i see the hopeless me that i be , the GOOD LORD help me see the real me i should be . am i down in the dumps due to all of my grumps , but there is more to LIFE than just trouble and strife that is part of our lot , though we are not all misbegot , lets try and get through each day thats so new . the GOOD LORD will protect us and never reject us ,well; thats up to me or up to you

Religious Theme

Jesus our Lord and saviour , want us all to win . the devil want us all to sin our DIVINE LORD want us all to be saved ,The Devil want us all to become depraved , our LORD and SAVIOUR promises us eternal LIFE all satan can give us , is eternal strife . if we strive to please the GOOD LORD above , then lucifer can never win all he has to offer us is to disobey GOD , and commit mortal sin but with GOD'S saving grace we take satan's lost place. he fell from the skies he's the father of lies the devil want to drag us all down . but peace ,goodness, and love ,comes from the GOOD LORD IN HEAVEN ABOVE . so strive for the GRACE that the GOOD LORD can give , try to live a good life and satan a shove , so he may tumble and fall into his pit full of gaul .with our LADY TO HELP US the devil cant hurt us she's our mother most pure that all can implore .

TRUTH

The truth cannot be bought , the truth the real truth must needs be sought .if we are seekers after truth , then its founder is everlastingly true since he cannot be untrue to himself , as he is the way of all truth no other person heretofore could ever , ever teach us more so if you are seeking after it . If truth is light and I know it is no darkness could ever darken it . from eternity the good lord came to help us concquer sin and shame his grace is what we all need , to help us overcome our greed for things that tarnish our immortal souls lose what cannot be bought back , the devil waits for all to crack so he can keep us on the wrack .But do not be afraid of him the GOOD LORD will deal with that man of sin .

MY CAT TIBBO

TIBBO my cat is wonderful cat ,he sleeps on the sofa he sleeps on the mat he's never unfriendly and never unkind ,a nicer wee cat you rarely would find . when he wants a nap he sits on my lap when his mealtime comes around he makes his usual sounds , and he wont let me rest until I give him best I cant say the brand but its always on hand , it keeps him quite fit that's why I favour it he's still only six with plenty of tricks he twirls around like a merry go round upon his hind paws he knows his own laws , so with nature as teacher no one could do better hope he can keep on twirling my acrobat cat. TIBBO .and JOE

ALONE

The loneliness I feel ,all through the day is never ever far away when night comes around there is nota sound ,except for thoughts that seem unsound the answer to my awful plight ,is to pray and pray all through the night the LORD advises us to pray ,when we arrive at our gethsemani and this will lead us not to stray but keep our loneliness at bay . From JOE.

A Poem On A Religious Theme

From a heavenly throne he came .To a world To world,full of sin and shame.he came to a world to a world ,full of sin and shame he came.Though a babe was he ,he helped us all to see that sin and shame cannot set us free through truth and justice from GODS own tree .not just a man was he ,but GODS own SON be he Ispeak of JESUS THE CHRIST ,the saviour of all through his MOTHER MARY and SAINT JOSEPH too ,he saves a sinful world anew .though sinless was he ,he set us all free through suffering and pain on the cross he was lain ,now he is the way the truth and the life he conquers our fear our doubts and despair .so dont ever give up dont ever give in for that would be a bad sin ,pray to JESUS in heaven on high because for me for you he didst die,please show us the way to our heavenly home LORD where the angels and saints are everlastingly new JOE ,

No Time

Our culture to day have no time to pray ,For our going astray what price shall we pay.do we occupy our time ,by ignoring the signs in the last days we were told we would be overtly bold ,will we make our way back or stay on the wrong track are we to blind to see the heed that need be,that living a bad life is surely a sad life .I pray hope and trust the Good Lord will come first ,his words are forever that no one can sever everlastingly true,for me and for you make sure that our culture dont make you a vulture for greed and excess ,makes an unholy mess so pray God we will nurture the culture we live in .by good works and deeds we help others in need thats the way back .so get off the wrong track thank God for all people who help others get back from that dangerous journey along that perilous track .I THANK THE GOOD LORD I DID

My Undeniable Dream

This is my second attempt at writing about my undeniable dream it is now about twenty six years since it occurred I was living in a ground floor apparment the lifestyle I was living was selfish would like to stress at the outset what happened was a dream not a vision was living on the outskirts of the city where I still live , this is the account of the dreamI had seemed to find myself in a cave like area .a lady a beautiful lady incomparable to any i have ever seen .she was suspended above the ground about 10 or 12 feet she looked straight ahead her eyes were blue she wore a pale blue garment at each side ,she turned her head slightly to her right on doing so a man stood opposite me at arms length the beautiful lady the blessed virgen mary to me seemed to be saying This is my Son the man had black hair very dark brown eyes he had a large bruise under his right eye he looked straight through one Ilifted my left hand ,and with my left index finger I touched the bruise .immediately I felt extreme pain throughtout my whole body I felti was being told ,thats how i feels ,it was people like you who did that to me,through sin alter your life it took some years in fact before i became less selfish and more thoughtful of others ,hopefully am trying to improve ,can still fall ,fail ,and sin praying to God for the grace to live a better life .also to Our Lady who is everybodys heavenly Mother and who is always granting graces and favours to everybody who sincerly asks them of her regardless of class colour or creed .as a follow up to what I have written the odd poem or prayer will also appear
