The Prodical Son (Luke 15: 11-32)

The Prodigal Son

11And He said, "A man had two sons.
12"The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me (A)the share of the estate that falls to me ' So he divided his (B)wealth between them.
13"And not many days later, the younger son gathered everything together and went on a journey into a distant country, and there he squandered his estate with loose living.
14"Now when he had spent everything, a severe famine occurred in that country, and he began to be impoverished.
15"So he went and hired himself out to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
16"And he would have gladly filled his stomach with the pods that the swine were eating, and no one was giving anything to him.
17"But when he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired men have more than enough bread, but I am dying here with hunger!
18'I will get up and go to my father, and will say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight;
19I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired men."'
20"So he got up and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion for him, and ran and (C)embraced him and kissed him.
21"And the son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.'
22"But the father said to his slaves, 'Quickly bring out (D)the best robe and put it on him, and (E)put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet;
23and bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let us eat and celebrate;
24for this son of mine was (F)dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.' And they began to celebrate.
25"Now his older son was in the field, and when he came and approached the house, he heard music and dancing.
26"And he summoned one of the servants and began inquiring what these things could be.
27"And he said to him, 'Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has received him back safe and sound.'
28"But he became angry and was not willing to go in; and his father came out and began pleading with him.
29"But he answered and said to his father, 'Look! For so many years I have been serving you and I have never neglected a command of yours; and yet you have never given me a young goat, so that I might celebrate with my friends;
30but when this son of yours came, who has devoured your (G)wealth with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.'
31"And he said to him, 'Son, you have always been with me, and all that is mine is yours.
32'But we had to celebrate and rejoice, for this brother of yours was (H)dead and has begun to live, and was lost and has been found.'"

This reading has been read to me and I have heard so many sermons about this great parable that teachs us about God. God will always accept us back into his light when we realize our acts against God and come back to the fold of the lord. The beauty of all of the bible is to learn to be loving, patient, humble, and we are all teachers and can reach a certain type of people with our own struggles and crosses that we bear as humans and followers of Jesus in his footprints in the sands of life and time as we reach the end of the path we must realize to either repent or be punished for an eternity for what we have done in our lives.

This story touched me because I have been the son that was always there and was angry for a stray to be celebrated for him/her coming back to the the church. I have realized that I was touched and was able to do my work as a person of God and the light to bring as many of the stray sons that took their wealth and carelessly used it on the wrong things in life. There is one in my life that I have tried to return them back to the light of god for about 8 to a year now. I have found it out that she is slowly making it back to the light. It is happy she has return to going to church and prayer before they go to sleep and when the sun touches them in the morning and warms their heart and soul. God had taken them back into the house of the righteous.

I hope you enjoy the interreflections of my studies and how it interrelates to my life and my spirit on earth. God be with you all. Amen.

Lost coin of a treasure of souls (Luke 15:8-10)

Luke 15:8-10 (New American Standard Bible)

The Lost Coin

8"Or what woman, if she has ten silver coins and loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9"When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost!'
10"In the same way, I tell you, there is joy (A)in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents."

___________________________________________________________________

As I read this parable within in interreflection on my pool of tears of memories as I search my depths of my moments. I realize the angels of god always have either found my friends and was able to see the difference when the were found by one of God's angels after they strayed from the bible for some materialist way or felt God forgotten them. I myself have felt some way or another the same way. I have had times when I knew the presence of God among me. I remember a day in spring just when the winds came around and swept the cold and brought the warm winds of summer towards my soul. I found on the ground in the light colored grass that was regrowing a piece of paper that talked to me about a passage in the bible. I was touched for what the passage was within the torn and tattered paper. The angels searched and search and finally was able to bring this paper to me. Basically symbolizing my torn and tattered soul that was bare and naked because I have strayed away from God but now God reminded be and calls me back. Once I set foot back in the lords house and the sands of where Jesus walked and I see the footprints of my teacher to walk to the Lords mansion through Jesus's sacred heart. I realize my creator is rejoyousing in me returning to the treasure of souls in gods kingdom which lies in our heart and will always be close if we ever stray from the light and the glory of our savior and father. God be with you all. Amen.

Lost Sheep: Luke 15:1-7

How we all been the Lost Sheep

Luke 15

The Lost Sheep

1Now all the (A)tax collectors and the sinners were coming near Him to listen to Him.
2Both the Pharisees and the scribes began to grumble, saying, "This man receives sinners and (B)eats with them."
3So He told them this parable, saying,
4"(C)What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open pasture and go after the one which is lost until he finds it?
5"When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
6"And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!'
7"I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.


__________________________________________________________

As I have read this in church and on my own or in Sunday school, it has always showed me that I have strayed alittle from the flock ones or twice in my life. However, I was always found by a shephard of the lord or a sign has happen where God showed me he still loved me and wanted me back. In my prayers that I say for others for God to help and in reverse for my creator lord god, I have been taught that I need to repent for my acts against my fellow brother and sister of god. I realize I must help other reach the teaching and the light of Jesus's teaching in the bible by interrelating to modern day for them to understand that the bible is not out dater but is the foundation of alot of things that happen to us today and definitely happens to me all the time. I can feel god is in the middle of it all.

I know God waits for me to repent for my sins so he will bring me back to the flock of humanity of the righteous and I know I am not perfect because we are human and we are bound to do error but it is our saving grace to try to save our souls by loving one another and to bring back the stray sheep that has forgotten or misunderstood God in some way or the other. If we can save our brethern then we should at least try to bring them back to the fold of the flock or pray for them to come back. God would appreciate what we have done and realize we are loving and care about our fellow sheep or human. I hope you enjoy the interperspective of my journey throught he bible. God with you all and bless you with health and love. Amen

The Great Banquet: Luke 14:15-24

Luke 14:15-24 (New American Standard Bible)

15When one of those who were reclining at the table with Him heard this, he said to Him, "(A)Blessed is everyone who will eat bread in the kingdom of God!"

Parable of the Dinner

16But He said to him, "(B)A man was giving a big dinner, and he invited many; 17and at the dinner hour he sent his slave to say to those who had been invited, 'Come; for everything is ready now.'
18"But they all alike began to make excuses. The first one said to him, 'I have bought a piece of land and I need to go out and look at it; please consider me excused.'
19"Another one said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out; please consider me excused.'
20"Another one said, '(C)I have married a wife, and for that reason I cannot come.'
21"And the slave came back and reported this to his master. Then the head of the household became angry and said to his slave, 'Go out at once into the streets and lanes of the city and bring in here the poor and crippled and blind and lame.'
22"And the slave said, 'Master, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.'
23"And the master said to the slave, 'Go out into the highways and along the hedges, and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled.
24'For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste of my dinner.'"

************************************************************************************

Luke writes the Parable about how God invites all of us to heaven. However, as the story goes all that were invited made excuses. But all wanted to come to the dinner. We all say we want to go to heaven but, we all end up making excuses not to follow the Gospel or to spread the beautiful teachings of the bible to others. Many of us make excuses not to pray to god in the morning, lunch time, and dinner; go to church on Sunday; and to repent for our acts against gods teachings in the bible.

I have through out my life have run into friends that I went to sunday school with or went to church and have asked why I did not see them last week or a whole month and they tell me either they could not get up early enough for mass or was not able to come because of a sporting event on TV or something else they felt was a good excuse. However, if my friends realized that they basically made an excuse not to follow the ways of god and end up pretty much making an excuse not to come to heaven and get in when God calls us to go to the next chapter of our life, the eternal life, basic we are going to end up in the pit of fire for us not praying, following gods teachings, and repenting for our actions against god. I remember the peers that I had that made an excuse for not going to church or sunday school because the were either to tired well are you going to tell God when he invites to heaven that you are to tired? What would you say if he asked you to go to heaven and you said you are too tired? Would say that if you realized it was an indirect way of getting into heaven. I feel we would obey and follow Gods invitation through the word of the lord in the Bible teachings throughout the ages and all the biblical books and teachings.

May god be with you all. Amen.

A Seed of Faith

Parables of Mustard Seed; Luke 13:18-19

18So (S)He was saying, "(T)What is the kingdom of God like, and to what shall I compare it?
19"It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and threw into his own garden; and it grew and became a tree, and (U)THE BIRDS OF THE AIR NESTED IN ITS BRANCHES."

____________________________________________________


When I first heard this passage and parable of the Mustard seed, I did not quite understand it until I asked my priest about it around the age of 12 years old the meaning of a mustard seed growing and creating a tree for birds to make nest within the branches of it. Once the priest explain the whole meaning then I totally understand the meaning of the passage and have reflected it upon my life to help others.

I have had the mustard seed since baptizism and throughout my life. It grew within my heart creating the word known as Faith. Faith within god had given me the will to help other people who look for the light and want to find the love within their souls and realize that god has not stopped love them but the people are the ones who had forgotten the kingdom of the lord within their hearts and souls. It has always been there but people seem to forget the faith that the lords son preached to us and taught us through the writtings of the bible and to modern times to spread the guidence to others to follow the footprints of Jesus's sandal to the light through the narrow door into the sacred heart of Jesus and up to the spirit world known as Heaven to the mansion upon the clouds where the light is on and he is waiting for you in your special room in the mansion.

The parable to me is that god planted the seed and we as his followers have to give it just enough water, food, light and love everyday for the mustard seed to grow for gods love to blossom and grow within your heart and soul. To help god as his instruments upon the flesh of earth to guide and sow the soil by planting the seeds of gods love within the soil of their hearts to grow and love one another and to forgive each other and to move and find the doorway to gods Mansion.

I pray that you will understand the parable of the mustard seed because if you believe then your mustard seed will grow into your shelter and inturn produce food and a place for you and your future children to live in once you have planted the seeds within your children and leave them with a tree from love, teaching of god, and the beauty of the hands of god in the form of the rays of the sun everyday as god greets us all with the rising of the sun and the beauty he shows us everyday and the setting of the sun to the rising of the moon.

God bless you all and may god bring faith, love, and peace to you all. Amen

Do you know what it means "The Lords Prayer"?

The Lords Prayer; Luke 11:2-4

Standard Latin

Pater noster, qui es in caelis,
Sanctificetur nomen tuum.
Adveniat regnum tuum.
Fiat voluntas tua,
Sicut in caelo et in terra.
Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie.
Et dimitte nobis debita nostra,
Sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.
Et ne nos inducas in tentationem:
Sed libera nos a malo.
Amen.

American Translation

Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.And lead us not into temptation,but deliver us from evil. Amen.

_____________________________

As far as I could remember, I have said this prayer with the utmost true meaning of this prayer. This prayer summarizes the entire gospel and the ministry of the Lords Son, Jesus, who died for the sins of the world and ascended to heaven. When Jesus was in physical form walking the earth before he was crucified, he worked very hard to teach as many as he could and to pass on the love and teaching of his father God to his twelve to pass to others to pass the word of the lord and his love to others. This prayer is the foundation of every prayer for asking the lord to help us with the day to day material world of temptation and the acts of others who tempt us to do sinful tasks for Lucifer that was defeated by St. Michael the Archangel and God threw Lucifer to the depths of Hell for his malice, ignorance, and vanity. The sinfulness surround all Humanity but we must read the Old and New Convenant, the old promise and the new promise of Jesus who brought his Ministry to the ones that were less righteous and brought them to the light. Teaching to share and love one another.

We all go through hard times and this prayer has given me the foundation to strengthen my faith and to bring others to the light. Only to guide and to teach the tools to the less righteous. Like the one story that I have heard time and time again,

"A man comes up to a fisherman and say may I have a fish. The fisherman replies no I will not just feed you. So the man was upset and asked why? The fisherman man says I will do better because you area fellowman. I will teach you how to fish and you can feed yourself all the time. My knowledge was given to me by the work of the lord. I can only guide and you must be the first to cast your hook into the sea of fish of knowledge to learn and feed yourself. I can only guide not do it for you or force you to drink of the water. You must learn first and then you can eat of the fish."

I learn everyday about the bible that I studied through out my youth and realized that I see it in my own life what had happen in the parables and the life of Jesus within the the Gospels that I did read and now read today.

I say the Our father all the time to ask for salvation and forgiveness to the ones who ask me for prayer and love. I ask for god to help them all that I love and ones that have asked me to help them. "Our Father" has helped me get through the day and my life. Because I have faith in the lord and he lives inside my heart and soul. God be with you all who read this and Peace to all Humanity. Amen.

Rich Fool Luke 12:13-34

The Parable of the Rich Fool

13Someone in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me."
14Jesus replied, "Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?" 15Then he said to them, "Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions."
16And he told them this parable: "The ground of a certain rich man produced a good crop. 17He thought to himself, 'What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.'
18"Then he said, 'This is what I'll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19And I'll say to myself, "You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry." '
20"But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?'
21"This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God."
Do Not Worry 22Then Jesus said to his disciples: "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. 23Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. 24Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! 25Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life[a]? 26Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?
27"Consider how the lilies grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 28If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith! 29And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. 30For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. 31But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.
32"Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. 33Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will not be exhausted, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. 34For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

When I was going through a rough time, I was going to church with my brother Mathew who has aways been there for me and has reminded me that God will always be there for me and if I forgotten god and wanted to return to him God would talk me with open arms because God never stop loving me.

The rich fool reminds me that I have always been provided because my soul was strong and that god like the Ravens gave food to them and shelter when a storm came. To give my possessions to the lord and I will be wealthy in spirit and be able to pass to the lord when my time would come. Within Luke as I read this passage once more I realize how similar what I went through that I had everything and my wife of the time cheated upon me three times but I steadfast and did my best to believe in the lord and what the signs around me that he gave me so I could love and be loved by God and his teaching. My youngest brother Mathew provided with I needed love and compassion. In addition, my good friend Sean, Jeffrey, and Melissa all came to me when I was hurt and unloved by the one that I took the sacrement of Marriage with when I thought she knew what the oath meant. God help her find the words of the bible in her life and that she finds love within you lord. I learned that you have provided me with the richness of not the material world but of the spiritual world and what Jesus walked when he was teaching the disiples of the deeds of what good people should do unto others to find the narrow path to the lord when the time comes for them to find salvation and the doorway to your mansion lord. Thank you lord for your lessons within life and that I may help others in your name.

Luke 10:25-37; Saint of Travel.

The Parable of the Good Samaritan

Luke 10:25-37

And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to in hert eternal life?" He said to him, "What is written in the law? What do you read there?" and he answered, " You shall love the lord your god with all your heart , and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself." And he said to him, "You have answered right; do this, and you will live."

But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my neghbor?" Jesus replied , "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jerico, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a periest was going down that road; and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likwise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion, and went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; then he set him on his own beast and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And the next day he took out tow denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, 'Take care of him; and whatevermore you spend, I will repay you when I come back.' Which of these three, do you think, proved neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?" He said, "The one who showed mercy on him."
And Jesus said to him, "GO and do likewise."

As I read this passage when I was younger, I did not really understand how God sends guardian angels or affect others to help you in some way when you most need it. As the say goes, "You are never alone because you follow god and have faith within him." This say has been true with several real life events that I have encountered since I moved out to Washington DC area on my own and simply kept faith in the Lord and have done what is has asked me too. The Good Samaritan is a story no matter how old it is has been dear to my heart. This story I am going to tell you is true and I know God had a hand in playing out in it. I have tried to be good and help others as much as possible and seeing they are of what God whats me to deliever and I am only an empty vessel that I pass guideness from him to others that are in desparate need of guideness within life. Please enjoy the story.

The good Taxi Driver

In 1997, when I asked to show on a Friday night the awesome spots to go out and dance and have a good time with 5 or 6 interns from a different program from another internship program from that brought Texas interns in for a semester. One of the interns had a car and drove it up to Washington DC area. They in actuality did not live that far from me and I was one turn off from them. This story reflects how God watches the ones that do good deed to others in a time of need.

On a Friday night after work, I went to San Antonio Bar and Grill to catch the happy hour with a drink and free taco bar all you can eat. I went there and it was during the winter time around end of November to early December. I notice a young woman that I interned with over the summer when I was staying at Catholic University off of the Red line Metro station near Maryland. Well she said she was going to meet some of her friends here from Texas that she used to go to school with in Houston, Texas.

Then the arrive two girls and 3 guys in total finally arrived from where ever they were interning in the government and within the city. They were staying on Route seven off of 395 interstate in Northern Virginia. I stayed off the next exit down from them towards Landmark area. However, we got to know each other and I was introduced to all of them. In return, I traveled with all of them after happy hour into the DC night life. I never mind helping in order that they took me home afterwards.

Well mind you that the metro in Washington DC closed at 12midnight and not like it does now in 2007 which now it closes at 3am. So, I brought them to the Cellar for all you can drink to get them happy and all. Then I took them to Lulu's to go into and have fun as well then we jumped to Decades which use to be in front of the FBI build and around the corner from Hard rock Cafe which the closed down some time ago.

So on our way out of the city the decide to say that I live far away and kick me out in front of the Wilson Hotel near the White House. I was quite upset but I realize that what the did to me would come back to them because only god can judge and set punishment upon the ones that do not show love on their fellow human. After I show them all these cool places and had fun, I was kicked out of the car and I went to talk to the bell man at the hotel to get me a cab and I told them I did not have enough for a cab because I lived near the end of 395 which turns into 495 and finally to 95 towards Richmond, VA.

The Bell man from the hotel which was god sent called a cab driver that was getting off of work and picked me up and he inturn to pay for my fare picked up to young ladies of college age and brought them to some party. He say that I was a good person and he was middle eastern and he drove me all the way home and I did not have to pay him but he told me when the lord asks you to help someone please do what I have done for you. In the kindness of the heart and the word of the lord and the love that Jesus has taught us. Just like in the good samaritan in Luke 10:25-37.

I have found the scripture is quite true and as long as you follow God and do good deed for others and showing love to one another. God will always have his angels around you and when you are in time of need he will carry you. God bless you all.

Anniversary of Passing of the Dead

The day of the Dead in Mexico, Philippines, China, and Brazil is the day we celebrate and remember the ones that have passed. Passed to a better place of joy and beauty. Pretty much waking from a bad nightmare to others and actually awaking in a new reality. Some say this is the day we congradulate our relatives graduating from this world and completing the test of live or the journey of life on that sandy road.

These are the poems that I have written over the years. Most of them are from the mid 90's as old as 1994. There was a phase in my life where I lost all my close circle at the age of 13.

There was three very special people in my life since I was little. There was my Grandmother who died at 60 on her 60th birthday. She taught me how to write letters and keep in touch. She was also a great artist but did not do much with it because of the era she was brought up where they stayed at home and took care of the family in the 40's and 50's. Then there was my first love that not many know about her name was Jeanette. She passed away too. Then my last person who I knew in Tucson Arizona when I was 6 years old was Brian who I did so much with and we were going to drive to high school together and had plans to go to college as well but never happen he died right before Thanksgiving. It pretty much changed my life forever. I miss each and ever one of them. I know they are all doing gods work up there in heaven. This is to celebrate their passing and to share my thoughts and love for them that are still in my heart. Please enjoy my friends and fans.

In Memory of:

Brian C.
Jeanette S.
Grandmother Hoppe

Rivers Eternal Waters

As I ponder upon the river of dreams and life’s journey toward the golden fountain
I see and watch the river of longing life alter and change my life in many ways.
Grasping, flying, struggling to survive the wrath of the river
To survive to tell the story of many that have drown in the life of tranquil beauty
To drift and losing all within the whirlpool of lost causes
To lose three parts of my heart within three hundred and sixty five orbits of the romantic
Moon of lovers’ passions that dwells in the night of thought filled passion of blue and pink
Pink as the roses that I gave her that night she perished in the car to the eternal journey
To Heaven
A place where many friends that take residents currently

Growing with all I see her, my eternal love and her spirit lives on in the waters of heavens Ponds of golden pools of souls that bathe in gods beauty and golden power of eternal life.
To hear the trumpets to call her from the bluish white of the river of life to leave my soul
Alone in the river

My true friend
Brian, a soul I grew up with in Tucson
To see him pass in Alamogordo
As he ascends to the heavens of white
I see his tomb of eternal rest as a tear
A tear of sadness and guilt of not helping him survive the turmoil of the river
Losing a spirit of eternal goodness and feeling
A spirit I sailed with in the river for a long time in the sun warmth within the sands
Of the hourglass that warms my heart
That I call home

There within the sands of time my friend lays to rest away from the harmonious feeling, wrecking, and suffocating waters of the whirlpools of the river.

One that killed and numbed me is my Grandmother of loving nurturing soul
She wrote the poetry of a wise one
She guided my soul to now I just remember
I cradled my heart alone now
To wait for the one that will join my spirit of loving blossoming blues of bubbling love
Of the heart and loves beauty
I can only await the coming of the one that will sea my thoughts and emotional waterfalls of true loving caring honesty of love

As I still ponder upon the banks to observe the earth’s blue and heavens hues of orange yellow
I can only smile and think one day I will meet my maker and the souls to pass before me

My First Love

Curly Hair
Dark features
Remember the keen phrases she said
6 is when I met her

A soul of angel
Which the angels took
When I was thirteen

Jeanette is what god named her
A name meaning God is Gracious
I must of not been worthy of her
So that I thought of the time

God needed her more
She accomplished the test of living
Now to walk the eternal path

Remembering and celebrating that
That she is serving god as an angel

Her soul Platium and her beauty golden
Smart and beautiful in one
She was 16 when she left
With her mother one fate taking turn
On a highway
From El Paso to Heaven she took
A turn off of no return
To God she went
As she was flown to god

Those eyes that capture my heart
Now capturing the light of God
For an Eternity
As I lay 20 flowers upon her grave
20 for her soul

As a tear is shed not for sorrow
But for a place of love and beauty
A place of God

______________________________________________

I miss…

I miss…
The beauty of your flowing hair in life’s winds from god’s breath

I miss…
The turbulent beauty of your smile that shines brighter then the sun

I miss…
Your glittering eyes that capture the world in one glance

I miss…
The curls in her hair like the emotions in your heart and wild at times

I miss…
The trouble we would get in when we were little in childhood

I miss…
The sweet innocent kisses at 13 we did with sweet intentions.

I miss…
Your warm tight caressing hugs of love, companionship, and trust

I miss…

The phone call from your father when you left this world

I miss…

You the most Jeanette under the waterfalls of life

Petals in the Wind

I honor you
All my blood
Who paved the way for me

Petals of your thoughts within the wind
Petals that pave my way
Across the sands of time

I honor you on the day of your souls
The day that is known as the day of the Dead
We drink to your souls
We eat for your good pass over
To the spirit world
As the breath of god blows my petals of my ancestors

I toast their good eternal fortune
To live with God upon the comets above
To touch the soul of the unborn
To fly with the angels above

Brian my beloved brother serve our father well
Grandma may you paint a fresco for the one
Jeanette may you light the path for the ones to make it there

Petals in the wind
I honor and feel the ones around me
Guiding me in the darkness
As I feel their light and warmth upon me

Petals in the wind.

November 1st and 2nd

Twenty flowers
A bottle of the finest Tequila
Candy for the children above
All at the foot of a Tomb of Granite
To remember the passing of our ancestors
Of the day of the dead

Souls that now live the painless eternal life
So we hope; As well as we hop for ourselves
When we are ready
Celebrating lie the Aztecs
3000 celebrated before the first Spaniard
Set foot on the new World
Before the infusion of Spain and the Eastern Hemisphere came

Remember your inheritance
Your blood that runs in your veins
Passing of Relatives
Passing of the beloved

Praying for their souls
That walk
The eternal road
No longer the Physical
But the energy
There souls sparkle like the stars above
Like shining angels in the sky
When the night is far away and dim

But the Day of the Dead
The Sparkling stars are closer
Brighter above

Remember the Day of the Dead
It is the day the spirits are closer
And become alive once again in our hearts
As real as you and me.

Beloved Circle of 13

Reflections upon the Eyes of the passed
Thoughts of the after years reflects
Within dreams they visit

I miss my hugs of my Grandmother
The food she made on the 4th of July
As I would smile at the age of 8
How she lit my sparkler upon this date
She carried me with love
Taken at 60
Blood pressure; as she is called above
I place 20 flowers upon her tomb
As the Raven perches upon the cross
Each year upon the Day of the Dead

First love
First kiss of a woman
She was called Jeanette
As God named her in a wind to her parents
On the day she was born
A kiss under a weeping willow tree on February morning
A push upon a swing of love
Under the weeping willow tree
As I weeped under it; 3 years apart we were
She the older
She touched me with the caressing waves of the ocean
Deep and blue
On pavement she walked to the afterlife
Her mom accompanied her into the walk of eternity
Carriage of metal took her life
As I placed a box of candy at her resting place
Her favorite; Of the Day of the Dead

Brian I miss
We were spiritual brothers
Both alter boys
Love for god
As we prayed; we carried our crosses
Soccer he loved; Rides in the Desert with his bike
A skateboard here and there
Rolling upon the sidewalk
Pads and all
Met in Tucson; Departed life in Alamogordo
Our journeys parted in the beginning of the 90’s
Chicken Pox’s
Secondary infection
Open the door to the spiritual life
Eternal life of the sands of the teacher
To the mansion of our Creator
As I lay a bottle of Tequila we never drank in life
Together
On the day of the Dead

Grandmother, Brian, and Jeanette
I will always be with you on the Day of the Dead
Reliving memories like it was today.
Love always

Reflections of the heart of June 2nd

This is the account and poems of a young soul that I met at Washington Reagan National Airport on June 2,2006 in the Capitol of the most powerful country in the world. She is one that saw me for truly who I am and loved me for just the foundation of me and how much of a big heart I have for others in the world and my beloved. She has heard my stories of my life and enjoyed every one of them and was angered by some who have tortured my soul and heart.

Morning Sun Rise

As I ponder waiting for the wind that will take me south,
I peer into the eastern horizons to see the period of the rebirth
Rebirth of the morning sun that will light the world’s future
Touch the hearts of many to awaken from the slumbers of the sandman’s' dreams

As I saw the sheets of darkness peeled away
Away with the coming of the fingers of god
Yellow and Orange as the sun becomes bright and cheerily
I felt the memories and feelings caress my soul

My soul like the waves of the ocean blue fills my heart
As I pumped the rivers of memories through my heart
Feeling her all through me.

Melissa you fill my veins and my soul
As I dream in walking daylight the thoughts of you
Of first seeing your rising Mahogany eyes peer upon my soul
An honor and blessing to finally feel your essence upon me

You are the exotic orchid from the deepest sacred gardens of love
Silky petals that surround the soft wetness of your center petals
Like the morning dew of the spring as the temperatures rise
As the rays of god peer over the horizon of the bosoms of mother earth.

I close my eyes and feel the softness of your lips upon my soft lips
Feeling the love pressed upon my lips
Pressed upon my soul
To taste the essence of you upon me
To feel the way your kiss sculpts emotional feelings within me
Monuments of marbling flesh in my museum of thoughts
My thoughts of being bonded to you

To peer into your eyes and feel fulfilled as a soul
To always remember that sun rise as I open my eyes
And know I was just imagining what I want so much
To feel her around me and to taste of the exotic orchid of love

To always feel Melissa within the sun rise that awakens too?
Sunrises.

Way You Look at Me

The sway of your curly hair
Your silky hair in the breath of god
The elegance of your sways of life
As your hair, your silky dark curly hair
Falls around you’re surface of your image of life

Surface of silky beautiful thoughts and desires
Surface of smooth thoughts of heaven and heart
Surface where your smile of pinkish moist loving lips
Touch the minds of most
Flaring others thoughts desires heart and feelings.

To glance a beauty at that instance of life
That moment when you give me that look
Where your eyes share all
Your eyes of glitter within your dark brown essence of emotion
You touch more than my spirit, my heart, my mind
More than my existence
More than my soul
That beats in the tranquil night for you.

Your eyes of elegance and desire
You tell me more in your eyes than anything
Your dark brown glittering portals of souls upon
The Horizon of emotional thoughts

I awake to imagine your beauty, spirit, soul
To touch the surface of your beauty
To feel your essence

You touch me like no one on this earth
Unlocking heaven in my heart
I have never thought of someone that could do this to me.
Finding you in the most unusual places in this existence

The way you look at me that will forever be with me
As long
As I Exist

Changing colors of Heart.

Good Morning to all my fans out there in the forest of life. I hope that all of you are doing beautifully on each of your paths out there in the world. This guide of life has been thinking since the beginning of the change of the leaves. Upon my thoughts and worlds of the wilderness. I have pondered on my feelings and wondered where I was going on this time in my life. I have met so many beautiful people and they have had a change of color of thier heart. I am sadden because they are afraid of what I bring to their lives because I usually show radical change to their hearts and soul.

The Moments Gone

Two Rotations of the sun
Since I have been with you
I miss the time under the weeping willow
That I traced your lips in the moonlit sky

Where have the moments gone
Where have the time gone

As the leaves dance upon gods breath
I miss her warm touch
Miss her warm hugs
Only she could give
Under the weeping willow

Where have the moments gone
Where have the time gone

The feeling she gives me when she brushes up next to me
The beautiful smiles that shine like the beauty of the sun

She is my life; my love
She is all I want to have in this world
The world is she; my love is she

Where have the moments gone
Where have the time gone

I miss her heart beating in the night
As I lay next to her in the darkness and the light between us
Comforts; keeping both of us safe in our bed
I miss feeling her next to me

Where have the moments gone
Where have the time gone

Missing her under the weeping willow in the moon light

My Soul on Canvas

Images in my soul
Grasping reality with my brush
Bleeding my love; painting my heart

I paint my soul on canvas
Remembering you …
Remembering you…
Touching my soul with your love

That look of eternal love
Sculpting your face in my mind
Never forgetting your curves
The smoothness of your skin
The way your wavy hair flows
How you smile upon my soul

I paint my soul on canvas
Remembering you …
Remembering you…
Touching my soul with your love

Those eyes touching
Touching my deepest parts of my heart
Iris reflecting my soul
Lighting my path of life
Firely passion of life; of me
As I brush her essence of life in her eyes
I bleed my soul on the canvas for her

I paint my soul on canvas
Remembering you …
Remembering you…
Touching my soul with your love

That smile of sensual love
Pinkish flesh; a color of a petal of a Rose
Soft to touch; soft to feel; soft to kiss
Wet like the morning dew
Puffy as the clouds above
That I will always want to feel

I paint my soul on canvas
Remembering you …
Remembering you…
Touching my soul with your love

Blossoming Rose of pinkish petals of warmth
Thoughts of loving you touching the petals
That closes upon me
Caressing my soul
My thoughts
My spirit

I paint my soul on canvas
Remembering you …
Remembering you…
Touching my soul with your love

I will always remember you
As I use my soul to bleed a palette
A palette to eternally paint you in my heart

Orange Colored Seats

Seating in the orange color seats
In the metro
Seating and waiting
Waiting like the leaves stumbling in the falls breeze

Remembering that brown eyed curly haired girl
With the eyes of a goddess
Seating in the Metro
Reading her Cosmos
In her beautiful business suit

Seating in the orange color seats
In the metro; we sat
Exchanging glances

Smiling at each other
Remembering that brown eyed curly haired girl

Then she was gone like the vanishing snows of winter

Seating in the orange color seats in the Metro
Seating and waiting
Waiting like the leaves stumbling in the falls breeze

Seating and waiting
Seating and waiting
In the orange colored seats

Remembering that brown eyed curly haired girl

October Hues of the Dancing Leaves

Shapes of different dances from above
Changes of the foil from around and in the sky

The season of life changes to the Autumn before the isolation of Winter
Autumn of raw umber and bright yellows of lemons
As the leaves dance upon the fields of blue

The winds touch the old skin of leaves
October changes the garbs of the beauty of the earth.
Mother earths blue ridge of horizons
Apexes of hues of color changes the thoughts of others

A time of change of Earth and the energy around
Peoples energy and the fruit of life changes forever
As I watch my reasons change the ones around me
Upon us
All around us
I pray upon my soul upon my life to watch the changes around all
October hues of a new journey

____________________________________________________________

Moments…

Peering, Peering
Peering into the nights starry sky
I stare into the tranquil waters of emotions
Liquid emotions in the souls of life.

I look into your liquid Hazel portals of sight.
To see your soul. To see what I feel and touch.
You touch my soul, heart and mind as I touch
Your inner soul.

Only you can touch my heart
My soul
With the essence of your eyes of emotional love
With your heart of love
Your Thoughts
Your smile of pure happiness
That caresses my soul
Like the ocean waves of blue
That touches the sands of time

You are the sun that warms my soul
Touch my heart warms my breath
You are the air that fills my lungs
That tickles my soul as I inhale the air

Staring into your eyes
Staring into your soul
Staring into your deepest desires
Staring into your liquid eyes in the sky
Of my life.

Moments that keep me alive
Moments that touch my life
Moments that I will always cherish
Moments that tell me that I will always
And forever remember you.
Moments only you and I could only share.
Moments...

Moments that we will remember
Until the day we pass into the mist of the other world
World of Paradise
Moments…

Grey Autumn Skies

13 more days until my 30th birthday. Time seems to always speed up when you start to get older. Every year the earth spins alittle faster for me. The days slip even faster and my time on the hourglass's sand of memories and time of the journey of life is swept away by the winds of the aging wearing winds of time. How I pray that one day I will not be swept away by the aging winds of time and space.

As I walk the path, I am met by many that have lost their paths in the forest of life and strayed into my journeys path. I help give them what they lost when they strayed off of the path. Such as hope, courage, self-esteem, and faith but there are many more things I do like mend like a taylor their hearts and souls as they are torn by ignorant people that do not understand them. I will continue to help others because my creator asks me too. I was given a gift to touch others with words and images that are given to me and I paint and bleed my soul into each page and canvas.

I hope you enjoy the poems below. Have a beautiful day.

Light in the Morning Mist

Awaking in the mist of life
To only see the light of one
One light within the beauty of brown
Brown that captures the essences of love

Love within the thoughts of life.
To only see the inner beauty of a beautiful soul
A soul of one that touches my heart of one

To only be touch with the finger
Of the one with the glitter of life
Life within her soul
Within her eyes

Those brown eyes of big beautiful soul felt love
Essences of memories with that one soul
One soul that she loves and feels
To grasp the beauty of love
Life that is felt by her hands

Her flower of pinkish thoughts
That contains the beauty of her brownish love
Making time freeze like a winters night
Silent as the first fall of snow in the romantic
Air of Winters wonderland
Crystal that shine with the life of god
To see her heart open
Lifting our soul and heart above
To be touched by the great sculptor of life

Captured within her eyes of brown
Brown as the ground below as fertile as the earth of green
Captured within the glitter of the essence of her soul.

As I shed a tear of joy to know she is a near
To fondly peer and adore the soul and being with the Big brown eyes capturing the glitter of life within her eyes.

Within the life of a tear
Before it moistens the earth below
As I will eternally await for the glitter within her eye
To capture my essence within her eye and heaven
