Third party annotated bibliography by Tamanna Ferdous
Rene was composing a bangla song. After decades and motivations distant from a light year, he truly tried. Just with one concept. Photosynthesis is not something photogenic. Certainly not an easy subject, not quite popular that fame is blessed about.
"I think you need a break. Simply try an easier path."
Shanta wanted to cheer him up.
"Let...

Interview with an AngelInterview With an Angel
Angel, please tell me your name.
Gabriel
What does angel mean and what do angels do?
Angel is Greek for messenger from God. We have
several functions. We deliver messages from God to
believers and sometimes non-believers.
For example; I was tasked with delivering the greatest
message to affect the world. I told Mary she would give birth
to the...

At GethsemaneThis is a Repost
Today is Good Friday. Jesus, the Nazarene, who robbed no one, cheated no one, who loved all, healed the sick and performed only acts of kindness, when accused guilty and became the victim of gross savagery, didn’t utter a word in self defense, but surrendered to His Father’s will and shed even...

Elysium in the LightAs i bask in her glory, her sunlight reigns,
Her smile i cherish, her love still remains.
A spark ignites every room with your grace,
A symphony played in the softest embrace.
Your brilliance, a beacon, illuminating bright,
Whispers of wisdom taking flight in the night,
Behind those deep eyes, a universe...

PoetryEverything we experience in life
shows in our poetry -- both shallow
and deep – weeds and blossoms~
words come forth oscillating bitter/sweet
harvest, from, hopefully, an honest
sowing --
Honest words speak louder...quieter...
even silence between far more
emotive than a blaring trumpeter --
Poems affix in creative silence – before
the birthing, spirit’s cradle of incubation,
adjusting, conforming to individual...

Ocean, KnockingAs you open that door…
you don’t know that there is
an ocean behind it
If you had to choose between feeling nothing and feeling everything, would you succumb to the flood? What if what you felt was more than most—if your body and mind becomes a single ravaged nerve for every throb of the world?...

BIRTH OF A POET
I don't remember exactly,
but I know... in February
wanting to be March...
In the morning the wind blew,
as if announcing the fact,
a strong sun shone
as on a special day...
But it was the serene moon that
smiled the most when the poet
finally arrived from the farthest reaches...
He came from the immensity of the universe
without much fanfare...
He showed no cold,
nor...

TimeI know the mechanics of Time --
easy enough to add and subtract.
Division a realm we can calculate;
but, when it comes to continuity, it is
an age old question -- Our human heart,
an imperfect perfect example: beats can
be quantified; but feelings have a strange math
all their own...often outside of
measurable reason. ...

A Mystery of LoveA Mystery of Love
Who can understand. Why would a person
sacrifice himself in such a way. Spat on,
slapped, falsely accused, deprived of sleep,
given no food, unquenched thirst. Hauled
before Pilate the Roman governor. No guilt found
but crowd cried for Barabbas, a murderer and rebel, to
be freed. No guilt could Pilate find, but the throng
called for His crucifixion....

My Name Is Malchus
I, Malchus, am not remembered for anything that I did.
Rather, I am remembered for what was done to me.
Not agreeable to many, but I was doing my job.
In so doing, I was attacked viciously by Peter
who quickly drew a sword and 'cut off my right ear'.
Peter, a disciple of Jesus, but intemperate in character.
Sure, he...

My Name Is SimonFrom the time of Jesus' betrayal to the time of his death, there were several names mentioned--some several times. A few like mine were mentioned only once. For example, Malchus whose ear was cut off by Peter, Annas,
a relative of the High Priest, and my two sons Alexander and Rufus who were not in...

Hot Rally Soup Note: Must be prepared in JulyTake one demigod from the melting pot
Give it a Mega-phone (the louder the better)
Mix in a heavy dose of Fox News, make it a bit overbearing
In a separate pot,
mix 70 million evangelicals
2 or 3 million fanatics -depending on your tolerance
Season with lies and fear
Add holy water, a couple of cases of...

Barabus 2I know that it is not possible, but if I were given
an audience with Barabbus, I can imagine that
he would say the following:
You wonder if I became a Christian
You think that I may have been killed
in my continued pursuit of revolution
As with everyone else, I will give account
for the choices that I made.
So, take me...

InclementInclement
Of course, skies are not always clear
our Inclement Mother – we give a pass
for the flowers and crops seem to outweigh
the floods and drownings – besides, we choose
where we reside and pray – even God disadvantaged
often by our resident churches. Sadly, Love Offerings
are not so different, from other commodities: 10% or
be damned! Silver or...
