Prayer found in Chester Cathedral
Give me a good digestion Lord
And also something to digest.
Give me a healthy body Lord
With sense to keep it at its best.
Give me a healthy mind Good Lord;
To keep the good and pure in sight.
Which seeing sin is not appalled;
But finds a way to set it right.
Give me a mind [...]

Poem for Haiti
Did u hear the earth shake?
Haiti just had an earthquake
look around and its so depressing
but behind every tragedy is a lesson
people please come together during this bad weather
lend a hand to one who cannot stand
people strand beneath rubble and sand
looks like something the devil planned
land torn and shifted,
buildings lifted off the ground
so profound,
just look around
not [...]
You Wish
Share with me a piece of you, and i will share it back.
Show me the color of your heart, the white and dirty black.
Just give me a reason, a reason not to stay.
But all you do is blink your eyes, turn and walk away.
You can’t just leave me wishing but it’s all that you can [...]
More Than You Will Ever Know It
She is just a girl with a lot of feeling,
A lot of passion, a lot of pain.
It may not always come out the best,
And it may not come out at all,
But she cares.
So don’t lose hope,
Even when she’s lost it in herself.
Because she needs you,
More than you will ever know it.

So Much Wrong
So much wrong goes on in this world but still we drop bombs.
All my heroes are already dead so there’s no reason to be calm.
People obssess themselves with murder but forget about the truth on the way.
It’s like we’re all the sheep being fed lies through the hay.
Every body got two eyes open but their [...]
A Lad
Once a time; there lived a lad,
From his mime; he was so sad,
Yummy meals he never had,
But one good day; he was so glad,
For with his pay; he ate salad.

I Never Believed You
He said “baby I’m sorry
I swear I never knew
about the pain
the sorrow
the ache
the things I put u through”
He said “babe can I ask you
Is there a chance you still believe
in us
in this
in life
with only you and me”
He said “Hun I ain’t mean to
burn your heart this way
I’ll write
I’ll cry
I’ll do
anything to make you stay”
He said [...]
Here, But Not Really
To swim and not to reach
The contours of your shore
An eye in the coldness of the dark
It sees but not really.
To know and not to feel
The fullness of your soul
Just a droplet in a vast desert
It is there but not really.
To wait and not to see
The outcome of your years
Speck of dust in the wind
It [...]
A Little Swan
A little swan from the town’s lake,
With a beetle; swam here for clown’s sake,
It swung around for joy of horning cake,
But hung on a mound till morning wake.
This poem was written/submitted by Albert A. Olofinnika.
Talyn
Thank you Lord for being who you are,
your heavens shine brighter than a star
the love that you have given us
was paid, by your son on the cross.
when we are sad, you are there
there is no other who can care,
like you dear lord, we want to live
to love, to care and to forgive.
you brought us through [...]
