Final Call (Couplet)

A passing day like an autumn leaf, falls
From the tree of Time and marks the Age that calls.

The ticking of the clock tells what we face
The Fate of all flesh, the end of our days.

Where Destiny wears the cloak 'Forever'
As we cross that door to comeback never,

The winter chills of Fear may make us see
Live well this life to rest eternally.

Just When I needed You

Was it the twist of Fate
Or a wink of Destiny
Or the humor of fleeting Chance
That Love brought you to me?

It was a time of sadness
And this heart had so much pain
But you came and filled it with gladness
Yes, to love again was not in vain.

The second Love they say is best
Now I believe that is really true
And all my hurts were put to rest
For you came... just when I needed you!

I love you and thank you!

Brokenness

Unless the grain of wheat
Falls to the ground and dies

Change won't be complete
Because from there, a new growth lies.

Unless a man be broken
And shed off from his old Self

Molding cannot be given
On the jar there on Life's shelf.

On the clay there must be a crushing
For the new jar to be molded

There must be renewed pounding
For the metal to be welded.

New life can never sprout
From the seed that remains whole

And fruit cannot come out
Without brokenness of Soul.

'My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.'
(PSALM 73: 26)

Buried Treasure

You are not gone for I have you
In my heart's treasured memory
Where even Time cannot subdue
Love that was eternally free..

No changing seasons will fly past
No summer, fall, or cold winter
Will ever touch, my love will last
For its own spring remains forever.

I have you here and you are mine
The treasure sealed and sea-buried
There is no key, no cabled line
And the anchor there, all but rusted.

No hope for it to be uncovered
Unearthed, revealed, again displayed-
Yes, I have you to be remembered
And a heart of gold for you there laid.

Undecided Love (Naani form)

Between indecision and ambivalence
In passing Time
Drives Love to Absence
Frail Gemini's crime.

Curses and Malice

Curses and malice go together
Like marital partners they sashay

And like dirty words they are forever
Recorded in Heaven everyday.

And those that release them are in bondage
In shackles and chains of obscene language

Pulling them lower down eternal fire
Sealing their fate in hell so dire.

For Curse Speakers/Writers

Your words deflect
Return to you
And shower devastation

You can expect
That these will do
Set forth all pronunciation

It will accomplish
All that grime
All wrong you ever wish

You speak your fate
In verbal slime
And fill your heart with hate.

Your words bear fruit
All that you say
In time they will grow root

You follow suit
With darkened days
And live in cursed loot

You dwell In profanity
And nullify the good

Cancelling prosperity
With evil as your food.

Roots, Trees, and Fruits

A tree is known by its root
The source of its first life
A fruit is known by the tree
As a man is known through strife.

The root of a man is his family
The tree is the man that has grown-
The words that he writes in poetry
Show the rearing he has known.

A Kind of Love Not Needed

Flickering shadows
Memories of the past
Gray tomorrows
Promises do not last
Fading words you said
Leave sad empty feelings
The Love I gave not needed
Had led to our parting
Regrets may come too late
And reality is now here
The heart must face its fate
With goodbye... falls the tear.

In Him There is No Fear

When oceans move to swallow
And mountains slide to bury
And all don't know just where to go
When Death's near you and me.

When winter cold comes killing
And land breaks open wide
In Him we find there is no fearing
The Lord our God is by our side.

Experiencing God

You make known to me
the paths of life,
And when I pray-
You speak, I listen.

You fill my soul
with a Presence
I cannot grasp,
You live, I die.

You let me see
the depth of Love,
Your Glory comes-
You Are, I am.

You leave no room
for fear or questions,
Your Word I trust-
You lead, I follow.

You are Provider
of all I need,
More than enough-
You give, I'm blessed.

You are Faithful
And so True
Your Word is life!
You are God, I love you.

Time is a Gift

Time is a gift that keeps ticking away

And like a flower, it will never stay

It is the leaf that falls and decays

A record of the song you used to play.

The end of a story that has been told

Like the sunset of day as night unfolds

Before long you find that you are old

For Time is like sand you cannot hold.

Wishful Dreams

In dreams persistently you are
A present vision, ever haunting

At night like a brilliant distant star
The sight of you fills me with longing.

You call my name there in my dreams
Embraced I am in fleeting shadows

You hold my hand like fading moonbeams
But you're not there in my tomorrows.

If life could be lived in wishful dreams
No waking up in the brightness of sun

Together we will be forever it seems
Of days and of parting... there will be none.

My Love

If my love could be a song
A melody like wind will touch you,
For in my heart's where you belong
Like wind belongs to skies of blue.

If my love could be a bridge
You know that it will cross the miles
To drown you in romantic siege,
Dance in the sunshine of your smiles.

If my love could be a dew
Each dropp affectionately pure
Devotion constant that is true
Through time and seasons it endures.

If my love could be a tree
Big leafy branches will embrace
Enfold you here so close to me
In verdant cover shade your face.

If my love could be a word
These lips just know one thing to say-
All of me in one accord:
'You are my Love for always! '

Indecision

INDECISION

by Cynthia B. Baello
July 5,2008

Annoying thing, this indecision-
Wry deceit, unjust vexation.
Waste of time and of attention,
Diverts one's thoughts,
Drains affection.

Creates a maze with one's own mind,
Directions, goals are hard to find.
Weigh the options,
And then rewind,
Not deciding
Is unkind.

Just One Wish

I have but one wish and it is this:
That a ship of dreams will one day take me
To where you are and there to kiss
Each other in love, so affectionately.

To finally gaze in your loving eyes
To hold you in a sweet tender embrace
And to feel my heartbeat suddenly rise
As I see the love shown there in your face.

I have this one wish and I hope it's granted
That together we will be and remain that way,
There's nothing in this world I have ever wanted
Than to be with you Dearest, for all my days!

Lesson From Oscar de la Hoya

Life is ten percent of what happens to you
And the ninety percent of how you react
Choices make what soon becomes of you
And that my friend, is the undeniable fact.

Choices can make or break the man you are
And no one else is responsible for your life
Family will reinforce your choice so far
Still you have the will to grow or stay in strife.

'L ife is 10% what happens to you and 90% of how you react to it'
(Chuck Swindoll)

For John and Wayne

We all had past regrets
But take a moment's pause
The pain we must forget
And the scars these may have caused.

With hope, we move on forward
Unhindered by those hurts,
For the future holds rewards
And ways to regain self-worth.

Each passing day is ours
A chance to win our battles-
Though with age, Time's quickening hours
May soon take us out of the hurdle.

As a friend and a fellow soldier
We hold friendship in the battle of life
With our God and with all our prayers
We'll find victory through all the strife!
