Just Before Dreamland

Before i drift into slumber
Memories of not so long ago flashing,
On my vision, blurry now..
Almost my eyes would totally close
to sleep
But in between those blinks
I knew i smiled
For i saw your face smiling
But sleep keeps on pulling me
Although i wanted to still see
You, even in fragments
On my tired mind
Trying to prolong
The fleeting encounter
But what can i do?
My arms flailed tenderly
And slowly it stopped
And my eyes are closed now.
Yet in my consciousness
You are there,
Smiling back at me again...
And i knew my lips too,
Managed to smile back at you
And so at that fraction of a second
When our eyes locked
With each other -
That's when i knew
I went off
In entering dreamland.
With me is the calmness
For i know,
that when i
Wake up, and return to sleep
to rest...
I shall see you again.

... Just before dreamland

Homebound

The walk to home is like the feasting of the eyes
on a lush green valley, scenic and adorable;
breathtaking, incomparable.

The walk away from home is like the hopeless
shouting for the pain at least to stop;
excruciating, leaving you - teary eyed.

Anchor Of The Heart

Feign the loss luster into a clamor of hope
For in this world-- gorged with sorrows and pain

Quit not your fight, no matter how hard
For it is just in the mind

You can succeed - command your heart!
And so your thinking thus align

To the virtue, and the dictate
of, your heartbeat.

Thanksgiving 2016

This year's Year-End Thanksgiving inside the Iglesia Ni Cristo resonates again with so much love and humility. It depicts why a member of the church of Christ gets to be grateful not only on this special day, but a collective reminiscent of the year that is about to pass.

 

It's that same re-occurring feeling whenever the holy spirit is so close, which makes you humbled by its  presence, makes you actually cry with joy because of His compassion.

It makes you realize that the year is to close its chapters again to open for new ones - that leaves you rushing back to the remembrance on what you've been through this year - may it be pain and or happiness.

 

And it's at this point, while the singing of hymns were rendered that you realized, how you were able to continue on, as if the trials and tests of this life is insurmountable, but then, grace came … and you were able to survive.

 

As you are reading this, it wasn't only you, who went through the storms of life, or maybe going through it, but even I, a chosen one, was not spared. We had our share of sadness, our share of happiness and our share of first hand experiences of how mighty He is, how compassionate He is, above all, how He profess his endless love to everyone.

 

Indeed! It's a great way to end the year, through Thanksgiving - not only this time though but all throughout our lives.

 

Happy Thanksgiving Brethren..
