TAMING THE INNATE

Bequeath me the patience of heart,
To travel in this fairest journey,
Which in itself not an end,
Lest thou in sheer folly strayeth,
For in haste thou lose serenity,
And stir up desire before it pleases,

Grant thou the coolness of mind,
That his is that was predestined,
In rush human want to change the course of nature,
But thy will I cannot change,
For that which human proposes, nature disposes,
Then ceases to substantiate that was ordained,
Because in humility you did not wait,
Neither conceived the insight of the seasons,
The beauty of appointed time,
To sing not before you can talk,
To crawl before thou walk,

Save me the urging impulse of flesh,
So in appearance I can detect reality,
Lest in blatant disdain, disgrace my very soul,
For in flesh there dwells the power of deception,
The coercive force that overlooks the counsel of the inner domain,
And in premature celebration beats its temple,
For the trust of the flesh is the destruction of the soul,

In grace my reward reciprocate,
For in discretion and sound wisdom,
Thy laws I have sustained,
Of soul, mind and flesh,
And in patience walked this road,
Until thy will is due,
To rejoice in the beauty of my price,

A LETTER TO GOD

Dear Heavenly Father, Every morning I wake up and wish heaven was a physical destination, Where I could race to seek Your audience whenever life tossed me into a situation, For though I've read your word and partaken of your freedom and liberation, I sometimes can't help but wish that we could share coffee, and have a face to face conversation. You see, sometimes I wish that heaven had a postal address where I could send my mail, Or a port of call that I could land for comfort whenever life storms made me frail, Like a wounded warship keeling over with broken masts and a torn sail, Limping home for warmth and comfort after the violence of raging storms and hail. When reading your word I am amazed by the intricacy and depth of your mercies, That you sacrificed your only son to die for me without considering my inadequacies, Which are so many that I sometimes feel unworthy of your love and many promises, But again you reassure me that you love me ev

DANGEROUS LOVE

Every time I see Your face, My heart increases its pace, Overpowered by the conviction to present its case, Confess of how I feel lost in Your gaze. Your style is so amazing, Your countenance totally captivating, Your beauty surpasses enchanting, Your character? So full of life and interesting.  Its just that with You I'm like a moth playing with a flame, So captivated though I know that its such a dangerous game, Which can burn my wings and leave me lame, So if I get heartbroken I'll only have myself to blame. © Patolyer 2012

I WANT YOU

I want an incisive, insightful,irreverent, inquisitive and challenging mind. I want someone with whom philosophical discourse is foreplay. I want someone who makes my knees go weak with her sharp wit, irresistible charm and keen sense of humor. I want someone who speaks sarcasm as a mothertongue, with whom double entendres and naughty innuendos will form the foundation of our communication. I want someone that I reach out and touch randomly, caress her sensually, just by exchanging passionate words. I want someone I cuddle with, just by whispering in her ear. I want someone with skillfully honed imagination, ready to push the limits in exploration. I want someone...... I want You!!! ©Patolyer 2015.
