Ephemeral Senectitude

       Days of pastel blues and lusterless reds could fill the inevasible blind pages to come.  I have seen the splendor of my own antecedence, or rather the privation there of.  Once bound in a twirl of youthful folly now I marvel, can they not see?  I think they too, as I once, choose drunkenly, willfully to be ensnared by the false comfort of never‑ending youth; the pervasive, there will be time.

Though I have traveled many roads and stumbled on paths bleak, yet onward I plod; defiant, I stand in the face of waning possibilities.  Though it may seem as brackish waters to the weak of spirit, nevertheless, I thrive.  I have decided to dominate that which lies waste.  Failure, you shall not take me!

 

I swim in a sea of spring-tide, the deep brims with life about me, yet I find Continue reading →

Eternal Hope: Poem

Love, Meaning of Life

Ever endure and never give up!

Eternal Hope

Decades passed entrenched in great, deep abiding hope

In joy of life we danced and sang and loved and drank in life’s inordinate soul

Valiantly I fought to keep the love of life alive

Alas alone my partner drank my strength till hope did die

Yet on I plod, in endless hope to find again that spring

But I had not a partner true to save me when I screamed:

Help, save me, catch me quick for in the mire I sink

For hope long lost can drag one down beneath the hopeful spring.

For abides the endless depth of never ending hope

From fools who plod alone until hope has drowned their soul.

Then from said soul the spring of hope is fed so others stride

Until they feed eternal hope until they too do stride.

Time A Wasted

Oh folly of man, oh arrogance of my kindred, whilst thou would not humblest thyself in the knowledge of thy God and recognize His greatness amidst the bottomless quality of thy immeasurable comparative insignificance, others accomplish His will whilst thy bosom remains empty.

Creation, From The Heart, Love, Steven R. Harrel for This Side of the Whirlwind

Him

His eyes never blinking

His tears bring the rains,

 

His image ever growing in love, knowledge and change.

Time without ending, His creation fraught with pain;

Then with love overflowing in a world He made with joy

His grace it keeps and keeps on going to His glorious evermore.

Throbs

 

I selected this poem today because it has been on my mind for several days; I didn’t and don’t have any specific reason.

I do however remember being in such a great mood on the day I wrote “Throbs”. When I read it this morning the poem suggested I was suffering from some crisis of the heart or soul, but (Thank the Lord!) I was not.

I hope you enjoy this poem for it is one I truly enjoyed writing back in 2012 and reading again today.  The Lord bless you one and all!

O God!  Shake my heart, shake my heart, Continue reading →

The Crooner’s Moon: Poetry

From The Heart, Love, Meaning of Life, Steven R. Harrel for This Side of the Whirlwind

For your reading pleasure:

 

The Crooner’s Moon

 

Bright is the light of a romancing moon

Matters not the hue nor the fullness, we croon,

Our hearts set free thus we serenade,

In the shadows of night where our passions are splayed

Pure shade of light, penumbral bliss

Slight the bright of day just a lunar kiss.

Sweet glancing lips like the breezes of May,

Remorse unwept for the games we play.

Spring conveys such forces unleashed,

Boundless sighs, passion replete,

Follies commenced, endless thirsts and desires,

Till moon is spent upon our crooner’s sweet fires.

Saturday the 14th, Scary!

God is Great!, Prophecy, This Side of the Whirlwind

It’s my Birthday and I love Friday the 13th. Oooooooh!  Scary:)

Fifty-nine years ago a seer prophesied a son would be born twelve months later. One year later I was born – Wednesday the 13th.  Hum… Doesn’t have that same level of spookiness as Friday the 13th, does it? Oh well, Ooooh, I was born on Wednesday the 13th!

Hey doesn’t Friday the 13th ominously suggest and border on the Evilness of Saturday the 14th.   After all, you can’t have Friday the 13th without Saturday the 14th following which means Saturday the 14th could actually be scarier and more malevolent? What do you think… should this require some deep thought?

Like Arsenio Hall said, “Things that makes you go – Hum!

All Babies Go to Heaven?

  1. Q) Here’s the question: when a baby or small child dies before the age of accountability does that child go to heaven, automatically?

Ella Hey you heard aboutDefinition: “Age of Accountability” = the age of accountability presents the concept that young people before they are emotionally or intellectually capable of fully comprehending sin or death or even the pros or cons of accepting Jesus as Lord (or salvation through a relationship with Jesus) that these children are therefore absolved of the responsibility for sin and therefore the “Laws of Sin and Death” do not apply (Romans 8:1-5).

But is this true? Continue reading →

when it comes to your

siblings.
