Memories



As memories fade
We seek a new day
I didn't have it made
But that does not mean decay

These things make us stronger
Like a caterpillar from its chrysalis
As the days get longer
We realize we were made for more than this

Mediocre life, lots of strife
No longer - no more
Life is getting better
Maybe something good is in store

His Mercy runs deep

  Jesus never said ….   Jesus never said…… To give your opinion  So may your words  Be seasoned by grace  All of us are sinners There is no escape  Be wise as serpents  And as gentle as doves Jesus does not want our opinions  Words should be spoken with love So, think before you speak - Not all Christians are strong in spirit  Some are very weak So, lift them up when weary Encourage them with your speech  Jesus does not want any to turn away From him, love everyone you meet  Make them run to his mercy seat Don’t accuse them like the devil does Jesus frowns on such a thing.  Acceptance, not rejection  Is what truly draws them in So next time, before speaking Rein in your opinion  Love the sinner as Jesus did.  Stoop if you have to Love draws them in Without God, they’d be more stones thrown,  So, think before you speak  Don’t make your Christian friends  Feel not good enough  Jesus sets them fr...

Tears and Fears

No-one sees my silent tears Or feels my hidden fears As I lie here so weak  Exhausted- unable to do hardly anything!  Weaker and Weaker Weaker still  Feel so I'll, no pill Can take away this kind of pain!  So frustrated Having to pace my days Can only do something every other day And then, only morning,  Afternoon or Evening!  Feeling weary, aswell as teary Legs getting weaker still  Feel so I'll Can't get up or down the stairs Without difficulty !  I need a stairlift And a wheelchair Or mobility scooter Why do these things have to be so expensive ?  No fun becoming more and more disabled And having a label Is it the Cancer or Fibro ?  If I soon die, we'll know !  Getting less scared of death I know I am saved  On that day, my pain will cease.  19th December, 2019  Copyright Kizzy York aka K.J.Oakes

Lockdown Freedom

Lockdown Freedom  Sick of this depression  And feeling so fed up This lockdown hasn’t helped at all I’d sleep all day and night If only I could Can’t wait  till 4th July And we have our own Independence Day So much I’ll want to do by then  Sick of being cooped up  In this house-sized pen  The rest I seek  Is not House Arrest  But going and doing  Something I like best Visiting other places of interest..... Castles, Beaches, Museums,  Galleries.........  So much out there Has gone to waste But - I’ll be back in a haste Don’t want to be rushed Want to set out at a leisurely pace Don’t want to be pushed No longer a race But to ponder ........  Ponder, to my hearts content  Browse and peruse No time to relent  My time is mine now Money well spent !  Copyright Kizzy York aka K.J.Oakes June 2nd, 2020
