God's love seen in others., Poetry by Yu/stan/kema., Questions., values, Where love is found.

Have you ever been left

to take care of yourself,

abandoned at the age of four,

because you had bad health,

and no one loved you more?

 

Have you ever been lost

in a sea of people

and could not find your way,

so you looked for a near-by steeple,

a place where you could pray?

 

Have you knelt by a pew

with your head hung low

and felt so empty within,

you wished God loved you so,

and would wash away your sin?

 

For the hungry heart needs

more than good food to eat,

It needs faith, hope, and love

and fellowship that’s sweet

To reach heaven above.

Taking A Life.

For necessity., For pleasure., Life is sacred; Taking a life., Poetry by Yu/stan/kema., Values are important.

When the night falls gently

On the earth below

And stars shoot across the sky,

I hold in my hand a hunting bow

As I ask myself why,

Something must die tonight.

 

Do I have the desire

To take a life without asking,

“Is this essential or not?”

“Or should I give back lasting

Life to the prey I had sought?”

Does selfish want make it right?

 

I pull the arrow back

And I sense the deer is strong.

I can’t let the arrow go,

For I feel it is wrong.

The deer is not my foe.

My values, I hold tight.

 

I kneel and let it fall,

My bow upon the ground.

I feel my spirit soar

For peace and love abound.

I find I can’t ignore

The coming of God’s light.

Yu/stan/kema.

Christ coming again., Loss and renewal, mankind, nature, Photo taken by Jim Tanselle., Photo-Facebook Timeline., Poetry by Yu/stan/kema., spring

  The willows bend down

  Before the mighty storms.

  Clouds race across the sky 

  In different shapes and forms.

 

  Brown leaves shake in the winter.                            

Found on Facebook Timeline on 7-16-16. Taken by Jim Tanselle.

  Fallen acorns burrow in the earth.

  All seems dead and forgotten,

  But spring brings forth new birth.

 

  Strong men bend

  Before the storms in life,

  As they keep struggling

  Against endless strife.

 

  Human eyes reflect

  Sadness, and pain

  Until they realize

  Christ is coming again.

How We Spend Time Is Important.

Allocating time to spend., Cherishing moments of peace., Living in the here and now., Poetry by Yu/stan/kema.

I lost the things that mattered

By the end of my life.

I overcame big obstacles

And coped with bitter strife.

 

I never gave up and thought

I could turn my life around

And have the things I dreamed of

By the time I was heaven-bound.

 

But life is full of surprises when

We don’t get what we need.

We spend time pleasing others.

It’s ourselves we don’t feed.

 

We chase ghosts from the past,

And go on pointless quests.

We forget to enjoy sunrises

Or take the time to rest.

 

It is only in later years,

We are wise enough to see,

Living in the here and now

Is what will set us free.

 

The greatest goal in life

Is to experience the release

We feel when we let go

To embrace moments of peace.
