The Sail, the Face

By Timothy Green

Spiritually inspired, confidently and delicately placed poems based on the creative flow that is my father. My Saviour and healer brought me back from the edge. Now, I can affirm my status as a creative and officially pronounce my occupation. Not so just for me, but for my best friend, Jesus. Good works shine through and I am confident to add this to my growing personal list of achievements. To glorify my Father, my maker.

Interestingly expressive and captivating. I am gaining real confidence in my creations and I hope every home will have a copy. Well that’s the dream anyway.

A Beautiful Day

44612.png

in many ways

happy and unfazed

got through the maze

my babe’s celebration

God’s own creation

a nation of friends

with a love unending

away from all the pretence

no more sitting on the fence

a lady deserving

slightest signs of birthing

our castle, our home, our palace

A Beautiful Mind

44612.png

forseen my lovely one

curteous and fair

caused a stirr

whenever i am there

my found hiding place

trying to erase me from memory

task in the dark my face explained

fortold futures maimed as you see

but a loving hand drawn

across the pages i scratch

a match for any talented soul

from a place older than i

saunted and directly brilliant

bereft by those ways i miss

a beautiful mind, many hours

the same ways we know

grassland will have it’s way

nature will play it’s part

in regeneration of the heart

Day in the Life of Us

44612.png

A calming and calmed soul

ready to ride and roll

tomorrow not to far away

for each night and every day

pleasure, no pressure

unmeasuring our measure

a sound of silence and peace

easing our way through life

a joyful response

faithful and true

my life all settled

with my lady, my petal

being moulded and grounded in Christ

A Prayer for Our Brothers and Sisters in the Faith

44612.png

However close or far away

we pray for your safe return

to discern and turn to our LORD

free from the sword and bought

precious lives to defend

familities to stay bonder to each other

the murderers change or fall by their anger or hate

weapons forged against us shall not prosper

LORD we ask for your provision

for our bodies, whether broken or dismembered

fortune to follow us always

Christians truly portrayed

films and letters, records and dates

to remember what was done

at no loss

A Sign

44612.png

signing for me and you

nothiced moments gathered around

wear the crown all over town

sunset to sunrise, no fear found

bound not to sin and ready

ready for action when need be

somehow collecting from the tree

it’s leaves heal and feel

tenderly she goes until vanished

water replenished and finished

blessings to our body and soul

harmony felt out of control

never fallen we learn our lesson

glossy hair and feathers adorned

is this a sign from our father our LORD

rather be adored for softness

than be respected for leadership

learning from the best

he beats the trum and sings

blossoms come slow and fast

not to worry about the past

sign of things to come about

clouds are rolling, flocking, moving

the earth is warm to smoulder

we get older and bolder

my race, my battle, my time

A Soldiers’
