At your feet - A personal prayer during Lent.

Here am I, at your feet
Thirsting for the living water,
From the Sanctuary,Your Sacred Heart
I don't have the courage to look in your eyes
Like Centurion I can only say I am not worthy
To receive you,But say one word, just one
I will be healed forever
Jesus, I need your grace to walk in your path,
My strength is weakened but in you I persevere
Do not let me fall,
Tell me how could you suffer the Cross
Show me how I can bear mine
I want to listen to you as The Father commanded on Mt. Tabor
Tell me how I can do your will

Tower of strength

The more I hold past
The more I lose control
Just as I need not touch the breeze
I don't stop tears nor I weep
To feel its flow

Remaining moisture in my eyes
After an outburst of inner joy
Is from the well of hope within me
The flash of light there
Is from the Tower Of Strength hanging on That wood
Blessed are those little palms
Folded and clutched to the heart
Blessed are those bowed heads
To receive life purifying water ..

Video: Seals and Crofts - Summer Breeze

This song blew my mind.I am in a state of trance!

Lyrics:

See the curtains hanging in the window
In the evening on a Friday night
A little light a-shining through the window
Lets me know everything's alright

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

See the paper laying on the sidewalk
A little music from the house next door
So I walk on up to the door step
Through the screen and across the floor

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom
July is dressed up and playing her tune
When I come home from a hard days work
And you're waiting there, not a care in the world

See the smile a-waiting in the kitchen
Food cooking and the plates for two
Feel the arms that reach out to hold me
In the evening when the day is through

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

Nothing more but your smiling face

Now it’s time to let you go

Yes, I should go too

I’m as light as free wind now

I will carry your memories to my end

I want to see your face in the sunshine

No, I will not be sad when I look at you

It took time for me to realize

How much more your happiness means to me

Not just the truth

You are an angel who came to show what love is

Now I don’t need anything but your smiles

I am as cool as a pleasant shadow now

I will grow to a length to stop you feel the heat

I will be as invisible as the shadow of the wind

In my prayers for you…

Echo from the guardian hills

So cold just like a stone
My heart is beating but alone
All I can give to it, is the only warmth
from the folded hands on my lap,
when I stare across from the rooftop
And travel thousand miles..
I am just looking for the breeze I sent
To talk to a certain tree
But I know it never happened in a year
For that would have  passed an echo
From the guardian hills surrounding..
Yet I try for a millionth time
Gazing aimlessly
Not with the hope but with a hollowness inflicted
From the fear of losing hope
And I close my eyes to let a heavy sigh unnoticed..

Sail on a paper-boat

Summer is around the corner
Time to seek for a place
To build a shelter,
For the homecoming queen
A house in a tree bark,
Ten miles away
under moonlit river bank,
To keep her warm and happy
For the rainy days ahead
To build a shed
For gathered grains
From a golden wheat field
To the north from a sweetened creek

I dream to climb a paper-boat
A cruise to set the sail
Amidst the gutsy wind
A paper-boat,folded  from those little hands
With a touch of innocence..

How cannot  it reach the other side of the river?
I just wait for the kid to come,
To fold the paper into a boat

Above all - Jesus, your love

For the failing strength
For the burning emotions
Your Love is the only answer

The green book

Light, warmth and new hope through you

Early morning, when I spread my arms
To feel your warmth
You just look down and smile,
brightening my day..
You are a creation of God,
located so far,
But the bond you hold with the earth
Is unexplainable
You never stop for a moment to rest
Though you fade away in the evening
For you don't forget anyone
Not even for a day
You do not demand  attention
Nor seek a reward
But you do your work with love.
You are the source of life,
From the almighty..
Looking at you we learn,
To rise everyday, with a new hope
To spend one more day,
Filled with blessings and the hardships
But to make it perfect..
You are the source of God's gift to us,
Without you,Life would lose its purpose for that day
Unpleasant as it sounds..
You are a symbol of His love for us
Just the way He gave His life on the cross and saved us
You burn and give light , warmth and limitless hope

Walking on sunshine

Road to my dreams

Is an infinite surprises' gallore

And I'm walking slowly,amused and smiling

Watching them coming alive

Have I ever felt this way!

Just one more day to pass, few more moments of wait

To feel the pleasure of walking on sunshine!

Hey hey you little hummingbird!

Wait for me! I've just woke up from a dream

And it looks all beautiful!

All I need is your wings!...

Will you take me with you please?

Hey hey you morning star,

Why cannot I see you now?

But I know, you are watching me, smiling at me in silence..

All I need is your gentle glittter on the sky!

Tell me,will you shine for me today and tomorrow too?

Mangalore as I saw - 2 years ago

Mind-game

Here is the future, in your hands
Kid, don't kick the ball far beyond
I can see the awe in your eyes
Set your goal first, put the strength
Just enough and as much
This is not the last game
But is the last ball of your mind-game
Set your goal first
Put your strength just enough
and as much
 

Teh blah

Whoa! My life's turning out to be interesting as it was always! Focus girl focus! Whew! So much to do from my shaking hands. My motto being - " Own your battle - Burn the way outta it" Feels like am on extreme sucrose supplement :P Alert and on high ;)

Changing the curse

Shiny smooth tender leaves
Their sweet smell can deceive you
The bitterness might just be haunting
Do not taste them
Do not touch them
The flowers and their beauty
Do not fall for them
 
The poison datura
You won't get the peace
Unless you eat the fruit of that plant
Hallucinating the way you want it might be
But you don't want them to rob you

Oh life!never be forbidden
Never be unreachable
You're a blessed gift from God
For His love was in you
Before you turned away
He still thinks of you
For He blew his breath in you
To awaken your soul
To be with Him
Never go away, change the curse
Be the fruit of righteousness
Until you fall on earth back again
Until you serve your purpose
His plan.
