When the Master Comes

by Evelyn Judy Buehler

The stars will twinkle so brightly,
When our loving Master comes,
So hold onto blissful faith tightly,
Through myriad tangerine suns!

Jade hills will ring with laughter,
In plum diamond sunshine glitter,
As the dim past ceases to matter,
And never again is anyone bitter.

Hagar In The Wilderness

by Tyehimba Jess

Carved Marble. Edmonia Lewis, 1875

My God is the living God,
God of the impertinent exile.
An outcast who carved me
into an outcast carved
by sheer and stony will
to wander the desert
in search of deliverance
the way a mother hunts

The Deity

by Nathaniel Baxter

There was one Soueraigne God, which we call Pan,
That cannot be defin'd by mortal man.
Some call him loua, for his existence;
Some Elohym, for his excellence;
Some call him Theos, for his burning light ;
Some call him Deus, for his fearfull might;
Some call him mightie Tetragrammaton,
Of letters fower in composition.
There is no region vnderneath the skie
But by fower letters write the Deitie.

The Legend Of Faith

by Sir Lewis Morris

THEY say the Lord of time and all the worlds,
Came to us once, a feeble, new-born child ;
All-wise, yet dumb ; weak, though omnipotent:
Surely a heaven-sent vision, for it tells
How innocence is godlike. And the Lord
Renews, through childhood, to our world-dimmed eyes,
The half forgotten splendours of the skies.

And because motherhood is sacreder
And purer far than any fatherhood,

Inner Peace

by Astridah Chimfutumba

Immersed in the treasures of nature
Gifts of divine stature
Sitting on a chair as soft as a marshmallow
Wondering why emojis are yellow
It’s all a mystery
What is life? Why do I get hungry?!
Why can’t I stay days without eating?
Or days my heart not beating?

Yet you may think these are childish questions

The Flower of Love

by Evelyn Judy Buehler

She'd felt the hand of God from an early age,
And an overwhelming love began to blossom.
Anna's heart belonged to Him long before,
She grew to be old enough to join the order!
Her great love for Him shone through the
Many kind acts, of this gentle gift of God.
She brought comfort to a great many people,
And she aided the poor and the helpless.
The compassion she gave lifted many spirits,
And lit the lonely paths to brighter days.

Senseless

by FELLEX CHECA

Words of no profit,
Chitchat and debate
worth no participate!
Rather saving the lost,

Edifying the synagogue.
It’s the beast works
For men to mine;
Strifes among themselves,

The Humble Petition Of Bruar Water

by Robert Burns

MY lord, I know your noble ear
Woe ne'er assails in vain;
Embolden'd thus, I beg you'll hear
Your humble slave complain,
How saucy Phoebus' scorching beams,
In flaming summer-pride,
Dry-withering, waste my foamy streams,
And drink my crystal tide. 1
The lightly-jumping, glowrin' trouts,
That thro' my waters play,
