kaleidoscope of motion

#poetry When an “error “in dance seems to bring you to a halt,remember it’s a pause,not a fault…. a hesitation not a relegation …. The swirls and twirls must be intertwined with pauses ,breaks and pulses to yield the kaleidoscope of beautiful woven,intricately blended dance motion.Don’t just dance express yourself. SIMU

FROM ROOM TO ROOM

FROM ROOM TO ROOM BY E I VICTOR ( SIR WRITE MAN) It all started in the labour room Where he gave his first cry Later on, they took him to the classroom There, he also cried wanting to go back to mummy He was a regular visitor at the bathroom Because he was always playing with dirt For the love of sleep We usually found him in the bedroom And for the love of cartoons He spent hours in the living room For the love of food He hungrily walked into the dining room From room to room ...

A GOOD FATHER
Lambe-Rohi Bethel-Gold

A GOOD FATHER

A good father doesn’t always speak loud— But his presence is louder than words. He may not know how to say it all, But his actions finish the sentence. A good father is a covering, Not made of noise, but of strength. Of prayers whispered under breath, And sacrifices we didn’t always see. He shows up, even when he’s tired. He stays, even when it’s hard. He may not be perfect, But he is present. And that alone Changes everything. So to the fathers who try, To the ones who love in th...

humanity is its own problem
jerry KWATCHEY

humanity is its own problem

#poetry The biggest problem facing humanity is humanity itself, as people tend to be their own worst enemies. The most pressing problems people encounter are often created by others. Suffering and diseases can be lucrative for some, and the solutions to humanity's problems are frequently hoarded, monetized, and sold for profit. This underscores the notion that humanity is its own greatest problem. SIMU

The Ark of Covenant goes before the People

Poem: THE ARK OF COVENANT GOES BEFORE THE PEOPLE JOSHUA 3:6-16 Upon my House, you have given your Word, That you would never leave me or Forsake me, All I need is to be Strong and Stand Firm. All I need is You. Yahweh, You magnified thee amongst the People! For who am I that you are so Mindful! You went ahead us because the Battle is yours, The victory is ours.

DO WE REALLY CHANGE?

Time is marked by how we perceive changes in events. Yesterday, today and tomorrow. Past, Present and Future. Do we really change? Or we are aging? Time is an illusion, Just the way we perceive the events that take place. There is neither past nor future. It's a matter of human perception that makes it so to mark events, age. We don't really change. We are the very ones we were, are and would ever be; Adapting to changes in events and taking new temperaments... And coming up with new ideas......

Illuminati is a lie? Religions are the Truths?

THE SINS OF THE SAVIOR SPELL *********************************** The phrase “Thank you, Jesus” is not a harmless expression of gratitude. It is a spell of submission. A mantra of programmed dependency. A bypass of inner flame through the illusion of borrowed salvation. You were taught to worship what you already are. You were taught to beg for what was already within you. You were taught to thank an external deity for surviving storms you weathered on your own. Let that sink in deepl...

Thank You Jesus

Thank You Jesus

By:MG Bobby KE You were not born broken. You were not born in sin. You were not born waiting for a savior. You were born flame. You were born whole. You were born carrying the memory of Source in your blood, your breath, your being. That was the threat. They came for it. Not with swords. Not with bullets. With stories. They did not just erase your divinity. They outsourced it, packaged it, crucified it, and sold it back to you as a man named Jesus. #poetry #stories #nircle #follow

You got to read This

There is a mirror that does not wait on any wall. It is not found in palaces nor temples, but in the quiet space just behind your heart— where longing becomes light, and silence becomes sacred. It is said that when a soul is ready, truly ready to remember what it is— the mirror appears. Not outside, but within. And so it was, in a time before time, that a soul approached the Mirror Between Worlds. He wore no name, only a hood woven from the breath of stars. He was not old, nor young, nor...

He plays politics like chess on burning ground, pawns of truth sacrificed for crowns of lies. He reaps fields he never touched, plants debts where trust once bloomed. I fear his envy , a quiet serpent curling in the ribcage, whispering murder into the ear of kin, until blood becomes cheaper than pride. I fear the patience of Heaven, how long the wicked are granted breat...

PRAYER — GOD'S SILENT SOUND

Prayer is the written word On a blank page. Prayer is the Silent sound from God. Prayer is the quiet whisper No one hears. Prayer is the deep request Made from the heart. Prayer is the key That opens closed doors. Prayer is the answer We didn’t know we needed. Prayer is the word That walks behind our actions. Prayer is the quiet talk Between God and soul. ~ L.R Bethel-Gold #Art #NircleWriters #WriteOnNircle #HelloNircle #MyNircleFeeds #NircleFeeds #NirclePoem #Poetry #Poet #Poem

#poetry Happiness arises from discovering inner peace amidst the complexities of life's notions, motions, and commotions. It involves identifying moments and memories that render life truly fulfilling. The notion of a perfect moment is an illusion; waiting for a grand gesture or a divine sign can cause life to pass you by. Instead, strike a balance between preparing for tomorrow and living in the present, as the uncertainty of tomorrow necessitates living in the now. SIMU
