above the sun

07/2012

                                               High above this charade of lies 

                                A battlefield wages that surpasses mindsets

                                               Here the Creator's adoration reaches

                               Past the limbo that captives us

                               To where who we were meant to be resides

                               A place untouched by the atramentous acroamatics 

                               Of many centuries of self generated cycles

                                              Gently nudging, He is trying to awake the willing

                                              Those who haven't forgotten

      

                                              That

        

                                              Angels fly above the sun

You have not only used your brush to paint in my mind this morning you have expanded my vocabulary with exellent and perfect word choice. I like that it is not forced as I often see with unusual words. The fact that those particular choices are the only words that aptly describe your message even more intrigiung and display a depth of mind that is fascinating. Thank You for the read request. Always fullfilling reading your work.

"the Creator's adoration.. " I love this concept.. we often forget that.. "gently nudging" geeze.. I think he uses a sledge hammer on me.. is that a gentle nudge..?

[joshua deathdealer]

lol That's the way I've felt for a couple of months. Like he is trying to wake me up using everything at his disposal. Thank you.

Dear joshua deathdealer,

This poem reminds me of the book of Ecclesiastes when King Solomon talked about the vanity of life without God also known as vanity "under the sun." I like the title as it makes me think of the ultimate conclusion that God surpasses all, that the supernatural is above us.

This is my favorite lines,

" Gently nudging, He is trying to awaken the willing
Those who haven't forgotten
That
Angels fly above the sun"

Cause it empowers the beauty of faith and divinity. Nicely written. Well, that's my view of the poem, anyways.

Thanks for sharing!

I think I preferred the "For All Those Sleeping" video done at the store(?) venue when the guys sang "I'm not Dead Yet" with just the two acoustic Guitars. They didn't strain-out the words and the interplay of the lyrics really worked for me... this is the link:
