Easter

Easter is a celebration, a dance of joy, a togetherness. A celebretion because it was a series of days leading up to the grand finale that disclosed a doorway to God; one that all could knock on and surely it would be opened unto them. A dance of joy because of the pomp and circumstance that it... Sign in to see full entry.

These opposites don't attract {choose your path wisely}

There is darkness, there is light it depends on which one you side with the most that determines which one will leave... Sign in to see full entry.

A fight to the death

You have stolen away many a good souls in the nightwatch. You slithered into existence, and bought to life this deplorable end. A fight to the death I choose- if I win we live, and you death, surely you will die. Return to naught tyrant, along with your dastardly deeds; take your shackles and put...

Glimpses of a once tortured soul {Physician heal thyself}

Let me tell you a little story of an encounter I had one day. This woman came up to me on a sunny morning and did say. "Aren't you the remarkable Gilbert S. Livingston, author of the book 'Even Roses have thorns'." I replied, "why yes ma'am I am, so you've read about the Nocturnal Enuresis I have... Sign in to see full entry.

God is good...Deservingly claimed twice with every third word

I awakened with you in my thoughts. My mind wanders, but I try to think pleasant thoughts of nothing besides your over-whelming goodness. You are the reason; the reason there is life, anfd life is eternally so precious, as it is your desire, because of your love which thereby created it; and it is... Sign in to see full entry.

I write better when I"m feeling blue

The sun hid behind the clouds today, and from my bed I could tell the second heaven had awakened a watery assault. I could hear the rain mocking the tires of cars, as they sang their lyrics against the surface of the road. I peered sleepily out of my window, and could see an asphalt truck repairing...

December eighth

I'm put to mind of December eighth long ago, because it was a day that I had to fight the fight for my very own life. It was a day I had lost my cushioned nesting place for arms to nestle in. It was a day I first heard a recognizable voice, un-muffled now, yet echoing joyfully through my ears, and... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

On my blog I hope people will find inspiration and encouragement from my poems; also some poetic excerpts from my life and life itself. I also will feature some spiritual poems from my religious foundation, which is in any wise leading anyone to believe that I stay firmly on that foundation at all times. Also , as if I haven't said enough, I will be sharing excerpts from my book known as "Even Roses have thorns" that I self-published in July of 2014. It's a good read because it plunges into a personal handicap that I lived with for forty five plus years of my life known as "Nocturnal Enuresis".
