What ever purifies the heart also fortifies it.

Fasting purifies your
Body and mind

Deep in to your own beings
And helps you to discover

It is essential for the

Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.
The arrogance of the artist is a very profound thing, and it fortifies you.

Rain
Rain
~
The darkened rain clouds
they hold no fear for me
the rain which fall purifies
it feeds the plants and trees
washes the filth from the streets
cleans the air which we breathe
I hold a special place for it
as cold and bitter as it comes
however much it soaks the skin
the rain remains beautiful
a serenade against the window
a powerful image portrays
the true might of nature
the gathering clouds darken
birds fly away to dry nest
before the sky breaks open
and either by patter or a roar
the rain it comes to fall and fall
for all I see it purifies the soul

Character contributes to beauty. It fortifies a woman as her youth fades. A mode of conduct, a standard of courage, discipline, fortitude, and integrity can do a great deal to make a woman beautiful.

Study for a Soul
the colors have begun to form
silvergray with cramoisy and gold
into an arrow carved by storm
beyond the fear of new and old
and where the arrow fits the bow
the untroubled darkness of her eyes
watches the red-gold target grow
strong is the sun that purifies
but I have sought in vain to find
the riddle of the bow and archer
there were no shadows left behind
after the heart's departure.

With Whom is no Variableness, Neither Shadow of Turning
It fortifies my soul to know
That, though I perish, Truth is so:
That, howsoe'er I stray and range,
Whate'er I do, Thou dost not change.
I steadier step when I recall
That, if I slip, Thou dost not fall.

Today is a Day
Today is a day where leaves bustle and the air churns
Today men will create or do something that they thought was impossible
I like the wind
It tells me of change
Special moments that approach like fireflies in the night
Change is a comfort and it fortifies my self-assurance
Change is a way of life for me

Leech and the Crew cut Hypocrite
His pet is a leech well-being,
Lives in his hidden pocket
And it goes to Parliament with him.
It listens to the country’s laws.
This parasitic living is a great help to the Minister
As the parasite purifies his blood
And he dreams of a welfare state.

My closed door
My closed door, do you care?
when you are in the open air
i wonder why?
the liethal smell of diesal
pollutes and purifies my sky
make it bright, make it dark
i pour out my heart, im a fool
while you pour out the fuel
on the gate, with my hate
you do it, the tulips
its not right, the statice-
rememberence, and my aster
for flaming the fence
you take the patience
carnations down the drive
spark the match now light
hello hell! your naked floor
will you burn my closed door?

Real Love Makes Life
Real love makes life so wonderful, so worth living, so worth the pain. Real love is greater than are many sweet yet blinding desires. Real love is greater than all pains, neglect, abuses, all of the ways they have compounded on themselves and one another, in our brain, in our mind, in our heart, in our soul; love does more then heal, more than purifies it restores, it reifies God here in every moment that it is real. This last forever after all of the dust of the cosmos has vanish into nothing.
