Sleepy senoritas with the eyes on fire



Cause:


my great grandma was "Hispanic" (Puerto Rican), my slight tan will put me in that cast of ugly characters, 'Crayola American's' to be  shipped across the Mexican border, but I don't mind.

It's God's country. THE C.C.C.'s ~ Coffee Chocolate and Cocaine!

YYYEEEE HHHAAAAA!

Premium Member Baptismal effects

Immersed in His Paschal Mystery
our Original Sin is --history!

Divine Power comes forth from His Heart
Giving sanctification a start

Now alive in Christ, but dead to sin
'cause death no longer has dominion!



[References: Romans 6, Colossians 2, CCC 1116, What We Believe: the Beauty of the Catholic Faith (Ch. 11), and the Divine Mercy Image.]


Premium Member Cloud and Light

Hidden by "the cloud, 
now obscure, now luminous"
it overshadows, transfigures, 
--Light numinous--

"From the beginning 
until 'the fullness of time'"
the Word and Spirit's mission 
are hidden, sublime



(based on CCC 697 & 702)

Premium Member Loving to distraction

"All that is necessary is to turn back to our heart"/ 

preferring His Love (to distraction)/ 

is a habit that's smart 



[my poem based on CCC 2729 + 2565]

All Hands On Deck

Feedback - flight or fight – it’s due to enzymes.
God put it in our brain, safeguard for crimes;
fear is normal, a good thing many times.

Facts fog up when fear uses its strong-arm. 
What is meant to keep us sheltered from harm
can fail just like any other alarm.

A freeze from fear forces all hands on deck.
When fears become phobias, take time, check
your fear can be a liar, a roughneck.

Facing the fact of a fear of failure
pray to God; ask others to help for sure.
With effort on your end, you’ll find a cure.

 Focus on the freedom you can achieve
 when your irrational fear goes on leave.

Premium Member Seated In Yoga

Seated in yoga position
As cool instruments play
Driving negative vibration
While solemnly I pray
 
Yoga relaxes mind
Setting my cares behind
My best way to unwind

Closed eyes meastra

Longa in English means a musical note with a time value equal to two or three double whole notes: In modern notation, a longa is usually represented as semibreves tied across two measures. 
 I might change  “in longa” to maestra  in the future for  a teacher who is always tired, lol.

I learned to type in Jr. High. 
I learned to tap the keyboard. 
One letter than another... 
on and on. 
AAA

... 

One day I came to class, 
and we all sat right down as usual. 
But to my amazement we were free. 
We could do CCC, or DDD... Even ZZZ

My heart was lifted from the monotony
of the drills to lift my skills. 
Yet in the end, 
it was like magic, 
my brain told me nothing, 
and I told it just the same. 
Regardless of our unspoken conversation... 
my hands flew across the board, 
as if they were made to dance, and prance, 
in an orderly fashion. 

I love my typing teacher, 
for making me better, 
than I was... 
before I took the class.

Premium Member Swallow An Ego

“When thoughts cease to flow ~
Where does ego go?” (by Unseeking Seeker)



Swallow an ego like sour food
When thoughts will cease to flow
It does make sense for common good
Together, dream and grow.

Bubbles of Illusion
Merge in single vision
For world’s one ambition

Let some pride sink, go
Swallow an ego

Truth Won't Lie



To what avail are scriptures etched on stones ~
If it’s true, we must feel it in our bones”
       (by Unseeking Seeker)    



Truth won’t lie when the conscience call
Voice drills from skin to bone
Hear the solemn hymn of His soul
From its smoothest to sweetest tone

Face bravely for God’s fair
Who forgives lies in flare
We know His love and care

Chin up high
Truth won’t lie

Premium Member Cross Is a Mark of Christians

Cross is the first Christian symbol
of love and salvation.
It’s the Lord’s sacrifice for all,
His precious redemption.

Gestured during prayer
God lifts when we suffer,
Armor of believers.

Cross is a holy guardian,
Cross is a mark of Christians.

Aqua Sanus


(Latin word meaning "healthy water")
Arabian Onegin Sonnet

Never imagined ‘happiness short-lived’
It’s very true; really I'm surprised
Once around the coast so many plants lived
creatures inhibited, but why I'm despised?

Beautiful nature surrounded, 'twas so
pleasant; loved, admired by all so much so
termed as 'beautiful river'; steady flow,
cold and safe to drink a few years ago.

Alas! my good time ended; they just sold
me, now property of investors; bold
steps taken, development rights they sold.

I don't mean anything to them, they know
how to make business profit; they don't know
me, that 'beautiful river'; tired with woe.


Arabian Onegin Sonnet is a variation of the Arabian Sonnet,
which simply includes repeat rhyme in a unique pattern.

The elements of the Arabian Onegin Sonnet are:
-A quatorzain made up of 2 quatrains followed by 2 tercets.
-Metric, iambic pentameter.
-Rhymed,AaAa BBbb CcC DDd

Degradation of God essence
Desires mirroring fear
Stifling innate heart joy vibrance
Lending ego an ear

We’re love and light divine
Yet choose to misalign
With delusion entwine
