Demon Lie Exposed (+3)

Under the shroud of blind obedience,

  the Church forever hides

 

Its loyalty to the Pope and Rome,

  it chides and chides and chides

 

Canon Law and its corrupted faith

  walk proudly side by side….

 

          “Where a child of eight

           in parochial school

           was brainwashed deep inside”

 

But guilt then crumbled, damnation cursed

  by heavens light deposed

 

The truth and God now one again

   —the demon lie exposed

The Instant

 

A few seconds of eternity

   two more than you’ll need

 

One moment of profundity

   fog gone—vision freed

To Bless And To Guide

 

Your brightness, your smile

  changed my life

 

As your spirit

  recharged my heart

 

With the strength of

  your father and mothers’ love

 

Only great things

  your life will impart

 

Listen to that voice

  above all others

 

The one that calls

  from inside

 

And marry your will

  unto your heart

 

All heaven to bless

  —and to guide

To My Granddaughter Parker On Her Christening

 

 

Hiding From The Light

 

Teasing us with its cover,

  darkness dances with itself

 

Deep within the shadows

  of its blind self-indulgence

 

Prophecies unwritten

  die in murky condemnation

 

Giving birth to another lie

  —hiding from the light
