I'm Back With a Few Poems

I'm back fellow bloggers! I've been super busy with school, quizzing, Bible college and other things. But now summer is here and I have once again entered the world of blogging. So after being gone for six months, here are a couple poems I have written since school has been out. Enjoy!

 
 The Cry of Humanity

Do you hear that?
Strain your ear to hear!

Do you hear that?
It’s the quiet hum
Of a singing spirit

Strain your ear to hear
What is that ringing?

Is it the joy of a soul?
Or a skipping of a heart?

Is it the cry of the unborn?
Or the sweet laughter of a child?

Do you hear that?
It’s the cry of humanity

It’s the tug of a skirt
It’s the rumble of a stomach

Do you hear that?
It’s the world
The hungry
Desperate
Fearful
Cry
Of
The
World

 
 Fear

Fear
It is a brick wall in the biggest city
It is a roadblock on the most important journey
Fear
It is a sorrowful thought in the happiest moment
It is hate toward the one you love
Fear
It is a consuming fire in the darkest forest
It is instinct in your weakest moment
Fear
It cannot be blasted through
It cannot be destroyed
Fear
It cannot be pushed away
It cannot be replaced
Fear
It cannot be watered down
It cannot be hindered
Fear
It can only be dealt with and overcome
Fear

Rise Above

I wrote this little poem a few months ago, but I think it describes my New Year's Resolution perfectly.



Rise above
Your past mistakes
Rise Above
The pain of yesterday
Rise Above
And discover the freedom that lies beyond
Rise Above
The world’s standards
Rise Above
What others think
Rise Above
And discover the freedom that lies beyond
The hurt
The pain
The quilt
Beyond the past
Is a beautiful future
You can’t even begin to imagine
Rise Above
And be free

All those mistakes you made last year? All those fears that hold you back? Rise above them. This year, you are going to walk by faith with fearless determination.YOU ARE FREE!!!

2014, Here I am!!!

He's Always On Time

He's Always On Time 
Author: Me
 
Its not too late
Its not too early
Its right on time
Never doubt God when He's four days late
He's still the same
He's still on time
He knows what He's doing
Don't ever doubt
Keep trusting and believing
For God's never too late
And He's never to early
He's always right on time

The Calling



The Calling
By: Sara Howell
I feel you tugging, pulling
Ever so gently
What is this you say?
No, no. I am not made for that.
I hear you answer
Ever so softly
Yes, you are. I created you.
You are made for this purpose
And no other will do
I push You away
I am not ready for this
I hear You whisper
Ever so lightly
Yes, my child, you are
Mustard seed size faith is all I need
And your love for Me will get you through
You have been refined for many years
And now, you are ready.
I feel You tugging, pulling
Ever so gently
And I surrender
No more fear, no more doubt
I watch Your work
Forever awed
Forever surrendered

Inspiration From the Kitchen

We all get our inspiration from different places. Some from Pintrest, others from Instagram. Some of us go outside and get our inspiration from nature, others go into the city.

I don't get my inspiration form any of these things. Instead I get my inspiration from the kitchen. I know, that sounds really weird, but its true. If I have to write something for school, I'll go the kitchen and clean it. Within the first five or ten minutes, I will have something to write about. The other day, I was cleaning the kitchen, but not for inspiration, and I got the idea for this poem. I haven't edited since I wrote it, so there are probably some grammar errors, but try to ignore them. :)

A Letter From God

I want to shape you and mold you
But your hands are blocking my way
I want to take you further
But you hold up a stop sign
I want to use you
But I do not have all of you
I want to give you everything
But you are giving me nothing
I want to life you up
But you push me away
I want to comfort you
But you put up walls
I want to do so much
But you are giving me so little
I want to fix the broken pieces
But you are holding them close
I want to heal you
But you cringe at my touch
I want to do so much
But you give me so little


Can I have all of you? Every broken piece and shattered dream? Will you take down the walls? Will you give me all of your heart?
