Tuning with God: A Collection of Poems

By Tricia S. David

I started writing this collection of poems about a year ago. Today is the twenty-second of December 2012. First I was interested in narrating the Gospel in fiction. Somehow the truth is tied to every word from God. So it came to the point of losing reasoning.
Shakespeare was a poet, and so was Mozart. The craft is the authors tools. God allows him to inherit his fruits.
Very often composure is gifted. Trees seldom grow twisted. Read with reasoning and dont forget understanding. The gift of love is eternal. Love is turned on and is exposed through true light.
My prayer is that those who explore these poems learn to dissolve all the compounds and surround them.
The mystery of Jesus is grace. These are all found in this very human race.

Tricia S. David

I am a black Caribbean woman who commites herself to worthy causes. My first mortal love is music and as a result I have composed at least thrity songs using the guitar as my composition tool. My musical style is classical with gospel content. I try to be true, but I am often coloured blue. I believe that patience is a way of giving gratitude to God. My academic life is focused in agricultural sciences. I am currently reading for my MPHIL in crop sciences. However, I hold a Bachelors in Agronomy and a Master of science in Crop Protection. I am both a national and citizen of the Twin island republic, Trinidad and Tobago. For anyone who is interested in my findings with God's given talent, I can be reached at the email address: [e-mail]

Preface

The passion of our attitudes towards life is often mistaken by direction. It is my choice to be released from bondages. However, as a believer in Jesus Christ I am committed to the gospel message.

Throughout this, my first book of poetry, I traverse through the thoughts of mankind. My focus is the promise of new life.

God’s wish for us all is to prosper and be in good health. It is therefore essential to harness the tongue. Speech can bring grief more than does the pen.

My need is for the reader to examine what I write. Let He or She judge me righteously and also be inspired to exercise his given talent. A tale told too late is bait for a whale? I speak no more because I made it to the shore. Forgiveness is the ruler of my heart.

Introduction

The faces that we greet throughout life reflect our inner need to be compelled into victory. I believe that God is descriptive from beginning to end. This is why poetry is dear to me. When I follow my heart the instruments in my possession move quietly apart.

I am bold and with obedience I never go cold. Let peace be your understanding and silence be your remark. When two messages come together they are fruitful and do multiply.

The cost of bread is always equivalent to the yeast that was spelt. To rise up high is to give up and die. To fall to the ground is the gift of a mind that is sound. The growth of mankind
