    After a night in New Orleans :D Good times! ‘Bourbon Street’ A bass guitar is thumping with the delicious sound of a sax a jazz man singing about New Orleans; all the regulars tip their hats Electric lights brighten the Quarter the ladies all raise their shirts “Show your t**s”...

    Thanks Prober, and 17th . . . . I'm picking my son up later today; he wants to spend some time with me on my b-day. He's been sick all week, and in bed all week, but he's getting up to come see me. Class act kid, man. :) InLove, once again, great stuff! 17th, all I can say is WOW! :eek...

    I'll post one of my darker one's. Though, it's not nearly as dark as 17th's, lol! Good stuff, man! I Love dark scribe . . . ‘Shattered Soul’ Church bells toll glorious, and true violent chills race up over a spine. ‘Tis a man, a sinner, unruly, and rude the holy father he may never...

    “Reflections of an Addict” (Parts I & II) Part I “The Rose” In the failing bloom of a wilting rose I find the reality of what my life has become. Petals fall They dry They crumble in the cool winters breeze. The beauty that once was hides her passion behind the passion of...

    Wow, I Love it when others share their poetry. 17th, you got some dark one's here, lol! They're very good, though! ;) Here's another one of mine I call it "Generations" Generations Without hope, and lacking love, like warmth in a winters breeze, frustrated, and bitter she cries...

    InLove, I Loved your poem! It was wonderful! The rhyme scheme was excellent, the line breaks fitting, and the way you strung the words into such meaning, beautiful. :) Here's an old favorite of mine. I wrote a few years ago while thinking about the families of lost soldiers. ‘Casualties...

    Freewill vs Predestination

    I see many obeying it, and I'm all but certain that anyone can come to Christ on their own. Following him is a different matter all together; I think God must do his work in you before you can fully appreciate what following Christ entails. Matthew 7:7-8 7. Ask, and it shall be given...

    What if he is not one of God's elect? Could he come to Christ on his own?

    A free bird leaps on the back of the wind and floats downstream till the current ends and dips his wing in the orange suns rays and dares to claim the sky. But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage can seldom see through his bars of rage his wings are clipped and his feet are...

    Do you call yourself a Christian?

    There is a song that inspires me; it's about when things get tough, but I don't know what it's called, lol! (It's a country tune) The lyrics go like this: "I've been around and I've found that walking is easy when the road is flat, but those danged ole hills will get you every time. The...

    My ex wife bought my son the Rocky collection for Christmas. We'll have to go see this new one; it sounds like a winner. From what I understand, Stalone has been trying to get this movie made for a long time now. I'm glad he got what he wanted . . . . I Love the Rocky movies, lol! :) Much Love,

    How do we exalt God w/o first experiencing him in our lives? Sometimes a testimony is good, and it's hard to do this [share our revelations] w/o coming off a bit high minded to others, lol! :D Even so, I think poetry is a great medium to touch the heart, and I think/know we should use our...

    I understand what you're saying but consider that all we can do in Christ is share what we've been given. [We] cannot remove anything from anyone, and that's the beam I think Jesus is talking about. [To think that we can] The Holy Spirit that dwells in us does the work, and when you realize all...

    Is This Like You

    Prober, when you are speaking to your brothers and sisters in Christ, do you refrain from speaking Biblicaly, or do you show what's been revealed to you, so they too might see what you see? To hold back that which is good, is to deny your station as a follower of Christ. The Spirit convicts...

    I'm pretty sure we all do, Karen. :) It's just something born into us humans, we all fall short of God's glory. That's whats so beautiful about it. We are all the same, and we all deal with the same demons. When you think about that, it really makes you see others for what they are. [just like...
