IN AND OF BEING WITH GOD:
A SOWING AND REAPING SENYRU FLOW
When you are with God,
You are unconquerable,
And can’t be outdone:-
Always be with God;
He’ll always navigate you,
And never leave you behind:-
When you’re feeling down,
Ask God for a helping hand,
And he will raise you:-
Oh, I once was lost,
But our God came and found me,
And fed me his words:-
Heavenly sown words,
Germinating serene fruits:
To reap and to share:-
OF SEEDS OF WAR
Sowing seeds of war,
Only reaps fruits of evil:
Fruits, nourishing hate:-
What you sow and what you reap can be two different things
SELFISHNESS is not from God
OPPORTUNITIES are for all
WINNING is not everything
I do not have to be number one
NOW is not always the best time
GREED is never good
ADD the good
NARCICISM is not from God
GOD loves us all
RIGHT is right
EMPTINESS follows wrong
AND fulfillment follows right
PEACE comes from God
I must love all others
NEVER look down on others
GOD is watching all of us
This is freedom:
to be a planter of heart seeds.
It is not our work
to shape that seed nor give it meaning.
we should be like blind farmers
not caring where the seed falls
or how it may grow.
Even a thorny poem
may contain a heart seed for
someone, somewhere.
It is a gift that is given
by one hand,
that the other hand
knows nothing of.
The one who sows such seeds
is forever free
to take absolutely
no credit.
PONDERING AND SOWING TRUTH BE TOLD
Its words reveal that the one thing about truth,
And the one thing truth can never be, is that
Truth, in its reality, can never be an untruth.
Thus, be the unerring difference between history
And its deceptive-twisting footnotes of our story:
Know the inevitability of truth, can’t be edited:-
There is nothing “Greek to me” in the Alpha
And Omega of the birth and death of Christ,
Yet, the assumption of whites first, and blacks last,
Remains a classical antiquity-American mystery:-
Depth of thought hints at darkness in the beginning:
Otherwise, why was it necessary for the Truth to declare its light?
Was it because from the dark womb of life, love’s trinity came?
My people, truth be told, there is history, and there is ourstory:
Truth be known, let us continue to fight for truth and liberty:-
KWANZAA FOCUS FOR TODAY
Sowing united,
We collectively reap more;
All being well cared for:-
Indeed, collective sowing,
Reaps nourishing growth for all:-
FREELY SOWING, REAPING, AND SHARING
(A Water Breaking poetic flow)
I
Inked words are sown…
Images germinated…
A haiku is reaped…

Reaping a haiku,
Continue to impregnate;
Sowing a tanka:
Let germinating words fruit
With divine wisdom’s guidance:-

We can harvest well,
But we must plant our saplings;
We can build up luck.
In life, there is ending
Only time gets used to everything
If you want to live better do not cheat people
If you want to live successful, don't slander others
If you want to succeed don't harm others
Every thing we do, do it with good intentions
What you do, it will comes back to you again
Everything has a law of sowing and reaping
The wheel of life keeps on turning
One day you're up, the next day you're down
Accept change, be flexible on what life's may bring
Someone who hurt you, carry on life to forgive
Someone's life without guilt will surely be destroyed
Whether it's from the path of work, fortune, family or health.
Let's cultivate souls
in blooming gardens of wisdom:
Eden remembered:-
LIFE'S SOWING AND REAPING
In life's great garden,
Many challenges test us:
We reap what we sow:-
Our mind is like earth
Whatever you plant it grow
It does not matter if you plant
Anything, anyhow, everything
So don't plant bad thoughts
But rather plant the good thoughts
Whatever it is
It will manifest in your character.
Sowing Seeds For Success
Miracle Man
November 15, 2023
Perspiration moistens the ground,
that will produce our life’s crop.
But the ground must be ready,
to receive seeds that we drop.
Hard work without patience,
is being one ingredient shy.
Being as good as some other,
means we’re just getting by.
He sowed his wild muscadines
They grew wild and free
Soon returned to haunt him
When he was thirty-three
Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
