Okra and ripe apple
Cucumber and tomato
Sweet potato and ripe pear
Banana with honey and mango
Pungent, white radish, and muskmelon
Darkness will approach but
The Conquering King will cast it aside!
God is the deliverer and the protector of His people
The Conquering King is a warrior
There is an admirable combination
Of diverse beauty in Jesus Christ
Jesus is called a Lion
It is because He is the Greatest of all
With majesty and kingly authority
As the lion rules the forest, so Jesus rules over all!
Jesus is bold and powerful
He is the Conquering King!
His supremacy is unsurpassed
The Lion of Judah
Saves us from the tyranny of our sins and
Heals OUR diseases for His Glory—
He TAKES CARE of HIS CITIZENS
The Lion of Judah fulfils his Covenant Promise
By opening doors that could never ne open
The citizen of God’s Government executes His Divine Purpose!

Sometimes I don't know you,
Other times I don't know me,
Sometimes, you are just a stranger crossing the sky's limit,
Other times, you are my dearest brethren.
You don't look beyond the surface,
My perceived height is nothing but a miracle,
You only know the skin-deep conscience,
I think of you as a divine arcade.
I was so in my desired continent,
You were so in your purest delusion,
Now, where is your dream and my illusion?
Where do you belong in this scorched island?
I found you nowhere,
You reside in my flawless daydream,
Maybe you are just a honeycomb,
Perhaps you are nothing but a silkworm.
Once you have defined the beauty of a paradise,
I congratulate you on attaining your preferred location,
There is a lie in your desired destination,
I know your insight is nothing but a false combination.
For marriage would you seek out a pair?
I humbly suggest you make it fair
Bald head rejoices over long hair,
A guy of stout builds a woman spare;
The bloke with bad eyesight who can stare,
The man always stern any spouse fair…
For wedlock, someone with triple chin
Should excuse a wife with a strange skin,
Women with tongues like the newest pin
For husbands men who’d ignore a din;
The women who dreams of a sweet flat
To shun the man who lies on a mat…
Man organically a tomcat
Not for eve physically a rat;
Man with a poor appetite for sex
Not for women denied it one Ex.
Sourness and throb moods
harm taste and relationships
and spoil the pleasures
I am part werewolf part vampire
My vice is gluttony; I love to overeat
My werewolf side devours beef in a sloppy messy way
My vampire side does not want it fully cooked
I have an advantage over others
People cringe when I show my carnivore tendencies
Fearing my gnashing happy teeth
Some scream and run off; I love that!
I keep a storehouse of foods ready to eat.
Beef, chicken, steak, sausage, and other meats.
They are my go-to choices.
But I would not kick a great baked potato off my menu.
What about desserts you ask?
Werewolf likes moon pies, but my vampire side needs something red.
Red Jell-o, strawberry shortcake, cherry cobbler.
It is fun being a combination glutton
When past and future conspire embraced in time, they generate today
Dellabetas brought in the tomato sauce,
Shanks came with pepperoni and sausage
My mother had a great idea
Why not roll out some dough and bake it together?
Dough with meat and tomato sauce?
Why not? It is just quirky enough to do something.
Aunt Gladys brought in some cottage cheese.
She wanted us to add that too.
When she was not looking, we put it into the refrigerator.
Cottage cheese did not seem to go along with our theme.
It was a neighborhood feast, and it was terrific in the end.
It is pizza! Our cousin from New York told us.
This was 1961. We were meat and potatoes people.
We had never heard of pizza, but we liked it.
The next time we saw the word pizza
it was on a Chef BoyArDee Pizza making kit.
The combination
Locks
The drops that say
Today
Rain is in the forecast
And come what may
Can stay
The easy isn't

No lies the storys
True
With blue a backdrop
Waiting and clouds
That crowd
For you
I saw it simply
Simple
The hats and chaps
That clear
Ahead is no like
Answers
With roses
That show
Your dear
So tick the tock
And mean it
The stop like locks
Like clues
The news is free
Like always and

Mean like lose
I Mean it

The morning
Cast it's shine
Like mine the meanings
Missing like locks
That's hard to find
So see me
Its a secret
I'll love you
When your gone
And song will play
Forever
And then its
Wrong
Like locks and
Leave it simple
Go here to find a
Clue
A combination
Of sorrow and
Tomorrow
Will say
Its true
My message is solemn.
When driving, don't text
or you will be next
in the obituary column.
To long stay a driver
don't drive and phone either.
For many a merchant addicted to speed
a slow-moving hearse fulfills the last need.
A blank page is
An opportunity
A fresh start
A challenge
A new pen Is
full of itself
Ready to show off
Ready to dance
A writer is
Eager to begin
Excited about all kinds of things other people may miss
Enthusiastic about the little things
A muse is
Imagination on speed
Thrilled to be asked
Willing to have fun
bees
melons, apples, oranges
flowered sweet fruits
bees of honey
fly unknown transport
flower fruits ate sweet
You are locked in my heart
The combination to open it
Is two but without you
The combination is lost
To keep you safe
I will hide you in my soul
Locked forever
Never to be lost or stolen
I will place you in my heart
As if you were gold
Next to your diamond eyes
Placing your ruby lips next to mine
Your jasper eyes will see
Those pearls of love
Wrapped around my heart
Holding it tight forever

Portal is a doorway, gate, or other entrance,
especially a large and imposing one often
with a window.
Moral Is Combination of Christ and Carol
While searching my mind will find a moral;
We had made an exchange that is choral;
At choir gazed;
He was amazed,
At what Christ saw through window in a portal.
Not only was Jesus very serious;
He actually did end up delirious;
Had much curiousity,
With smooth viscosity;
To find out more became furious.
From what we did further understand,
Lord had become leader of the band;
Could not wait;
Performance great;
When through, we gave Him a hand.
