Seashells in my Toes

 All is well 

By the sea
When you pick up a shell 

Put it to your ear
And hear the beat 
Of the ocean near

Different shapes and sizes 
Everyone knows a shell 
There are no disguises 

Toes on the sand 
A bucket full of shells 
A seaside band 

My shell is intact 
Many are broken 
That is a fact 

Heigh Ho! 
The tide is coming in
Time to go 

With my bucket full of shells 
It’s time to take heed
I know what I’m having for tea
With these seaside smells !

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
