ALIVE
The year draws to a close With many thoughts on our minds Mixed feelings of joyfulness and reserve Flowing through our souls But this Constant I know Who brought us through it all Keeping us alive till this very moment With the unmerited opportunity to see the end Many desired to be in your shoes Seeing the end with you But to their graves they came Meeting their dead end swiftly Unexpected it was That in a short span The finality to All their dreams Would come in a single day Bringing them to their expiry Before they had a chance to live But here you are today Daring to dream again Alive and well by Grace All by Christ single Grace Not because you know it all Or that you are that strong But for His mercies despite it All He kept you safe never to be consumed Even when you passed through the waters His presence was unmistakably with you And when you passed through the fire He ensured you were Never burned When drought came with its intensity He was your shield from the heat And when the blizzard came calling He journeyed you through with no hurt This and many more you'll see When you just stop to think Of His many blessings to you Your soul would rejoice and celebrate Rejoicing in His protection and Grace In His Mercy and Favour By which He has rescued You from destruction Rescuing your life from the grave He has kept you safe by Grace For many are the goodness of God to you But time permits me not to mention it all Not withstanding you know them All If you'll spend the time in deep thought Reminiscing on All Christ has done for you Great Rejoicing would stir up in your heart With true praise unto our God. ©heavenly_broadcast # Picture Credit- www.pixabay.com PUNCHLINE- Though things may not have gone the way you desired this year; give God the Thanks.

Я граю лише уві снах...
Я граю лише уві снах, Гітару, мов тебе, обіймаю, І пісня стара на вустах, Що в серці болем лунає. Я граю лише уві снах, Мелодію, давно що забута, І печаль в блакитних очах — Мій жах і муза, мій смуток. Я граю лише для тебе, Хоч знаю, що плід ти уяви, І біль губить нестерпний — Я гину, а пісня лунає... Я граю мелодію ніжну Та бігти хочеться геть, Як чую солодку я пісню: Вона нагадає про смерть... Бо вона серце зворушить І змусить згадати тебе, Ну нащо грати я мушу І палати мертвим вогнем? Поховавши, я присяглася, Що забута гітара — ось так, Бо пісня для тебе лилася... Я граю лише уві снах...

Тишина ночного неба
Полный город одиноких улиц И фонарики вокруг в глазах горят В темноте стен полыхает ветер молча , Сцены шелеста теней играя без конца ... Мнимость разных звёзд по небу Освещает путь ко царству сна Тем , кто в глубине ночи не встретил , Свой покой без тучь мыслей сполна ... Тишиной ночного насладиться неба , Рано или поздно станет легче слов ... Без ответов улетят запреты Давних чувств и всех тревог Звук сверчков дополнит кредом Пейзаж сердца споведь звёзд , Лишь о том , что дни болело От полных будней забот
