Wake up to a prayer

​Why not wake up and start with a prayer?
Three affirmations shall help you get to a place to share.

The guidance, teaching and surrender to a higher power,
You’ll be reaching an almighty heavenly tower. 

It’s a positive way to start the day
Bless each and everyone of you through the times ahead,
Be kind to one another, these are more than just words that you’ve just read. 

So pray 
And leave your worries to God to whom you understand him to be,
And one day you’ll be able to finally be.

My Yiayia.. Florenza

Yiayia, it's been ages since we last spoke

You may see my as your Angelo, now I am a stoic bloke. 

You loved me like a child 

You gave me kisses and hugs, 

You were my protector and a friend, and you were so adorable

The world would be a better place and much more restorable. 

Yiayia, you were so lovely, 

It's been almost 32 years since you have passed, 

I have written poems galore about you, you were patient, loving and kind

There's not many of you on this earth.. I find. 

You won't be impressed that I became an addict of sorts, 

But I am getting better now and have good people around me to keep going

Thank you for being you... My yiayia, the one that kept on showing.

If you feel alone... then pray

I am happy in my own company 

But I can't enforce my feelings and what's on you, 

You see, life has dealt me a blow when nothing has been there

Even the family you have don't have the skills or patience to care.

Don't get me wrong

Life can be scary at times, 

But God has given you this chance, 

Life isn't always a moment of happiness to dance. 

Life is for you to enjoy

You don't need to hold someone's hand, 

Because comfortablity in you is what God ultimately wants you to pursue. 

If you say 'I am alone then you will be alone,#

If you say 'I have God' then you have God, 

Life can pose its struggles, but it's the solution is what we need to find

Remember to yourself, and God... You need for yourself to become kind.

What God means.....

God is my friend

God is my peace, 

God is my saviour 

God is my perennial hope

God gives me the angles to never go down that slope. 

God is my father

God takes away the pain, 

God is my teacher, and the one that removes my anger which was once a constant bane. 

God is my forgiver 

God is my want 

God is my conversation, and the one that provokes but does not taunt.

God puts my head into the right place

God puts my love into a healthy position, 

Technically we can be bad for one other, but God never wants you to go on that mission. 

God is my confider

The spirit that has taken away my pain, 

When no one has understood me, God has made me learn from the lesson and then again. 

God is your best friend 

Leave the prayer you say to the highest of high, 

God is my protector too, May the light of his love bless and focus what you pursue.

Not going back (12 step programme)

​There’s no going back
That life that was a thrill for a moment but you almost didn’t make it through,
The killer is the addiction, and to be fair that’s shall always be me and you.

But the fight has begun and we nee to keep topping up with a prayer to replenish our once unclean thoughts, 
Stick to the 12 step programme, that spiritual awakening which it has taught.

The day has begun
It’s starts with a prayer,
Accept you have sinned and that the works you put in is important for others to hear. 

The idea is to keep going by getting to know who you are in God,
There is a journey so beautiful awaiting, 
I stick to that lane… my thoughts are not on arguments and debating.

Grateful for today

​God…thank you for today
Thank you for the hope, blessings and love to share as we pray. 

I try to connect to people that I love, but I prefer to stay away from their guise,
This is my 7000th poem, a milestone I never thought I would achieve as God has faith in my abilities.. that’s no surprise.

I am sober man today, for that I am grateful for that too,
I put in the work to stay sober, a path I 9once thought I wasn’t able to do.

You see, we are all important in God’s eyes,
That is what we believe through the words I share,
A blessing is held as there is a higher power who has always cared.

It is distance I crave for but then again prayers make us join through attributes of old
Remember, we are loved always… as our path of receiver of life’s trials shall unfold.

80s nostalgia

​England football team returned to the World Cup stage in 1982 and 1986,
Losing out to Germany and Argentina respectively, the latter match was infamous for the ‘hand of God’ which came into the mix. 

Music had lyrics 
And wasn’t on a monotone vibe,
There were sounds of encouragement just like the film called ‘staying alive’.

Yes, we had our struggles all generations do,
Those were the days when pen, paper and pencil worked out a letter or piece of art, including numerical clues.

People use to speak slowly as technology was often put away,
As I get older I miss those days which I hoped returned one day.

There was 3 to channels to turn on and played at a scheduled time, 
Recorders were a luxury as like video games which was played by a tape that often had to be rewind.

Those were the days
Yes, they weren’t perfect as nations often fought,
Reminiscing a moment in this memory back which has been often caught.

Safety in the rooms

What can you say about the rooms?

There is no judgement 

There is a spiritual peace,

God loves you, remember that... at the very least. 

I know today is all we got

Looking for hope, that moment from that impulsiveness of sheer desperation,

People who have been where you have been before, this is a journey and not a destination.

Thank you for these rooms, 

We have Bill W to thank for that, 

Looking for the solution to give up drinking, 

And not that annoyance of procrastination, especially when drink gets into your system 

And that you are no longer able to listen. 

The disease is what it is, 

Be at peace with God, and yourself, he wants nothing but the best for you,

This life and this addiction you will put through it.. unless you look at the similarities and not the differences

Life can be humbling, so avoid the consequences. 

Jason

Go out their

​Do you know what you want?
Do you feel life has passed you by?
No need to continue with the same vibe as before 
You have hurt yourself enough now go off and soar. 

Do you want a family or a big house?
Go and get it, refuse the negative words that others say,
You simply commence an aspiration.. now be on your way. 

Life is hard enough
No need to put yourself down,
I have met so many people who had nothing in their life, and they have tried and tried again
That’s the point of life, aiming for transparency as negativity isn’t your friend. 

Fight and fight until you can’t breathe no more,
Time to lift your spirits and delve into the comfort zone,
What point is there when you drag out a conversation and continuing to moan.

Jason
18th July 2026

Stay in your lane

​Don’t allow anyone to dishevel your walk,
Focus, find solutions and if you need to voice…then talk.

If you don’t want to talk that is fine,
Stay in your lane, and pick the conversations that won’t rile your ego,
As the walk of life is challenging enough,
This world shall pose its challenges and can be too much.

Walk with gentleness 
And if you need to go fast as their must be a reason, 
Balance your anxiety, or you hold yourself to treason. 
 Walk in your lane and focus on the prize that you crave, 
For me it’s holding onto the almighty as in this world I am a servant and no long a slave.

A beautiful day

​Thank you for Simone and Sophie life’s, 
To celebrate their birthday which is humbly blessed,
They are a creation from God and to those they touch, they are full of zest. 

Bless their lives and bless their souls,
Bless their partners, children and the shine that through the Father grows.

It’s their year, 
A year to continue to shine,
This beautiful life of yours is a journey 
One that shall stand out in legacy where God takes the glory to refine. 

Thank you for these two sisters in Christ.
Who are blessing to this particular poet writing these words,
 As God has got it right this time, on this passage for which they both discern. 

“Happy birthday Simone and Sophie x 🎂❤️✍🏽🙏🏽”

Leave people be

​Some people need to be left alone 
They don’t need to talk, they need peace,
Think about the noise, the words abd chaos that got them to that testing release. 

Some people need their quiet, 
as breakdown took place, 
The struggles can be overwhelming and hurtful too,
People can be like that, which goes for me and you!

The good intentions are there 
Trust is a factor you take into account, 
For me, I am not into family, but there is a back story for the reasons that I believe,
I wish all people all the best, as the prayers are welcomingly received. 

As I walk typing these words 
They are fluid and take spiritual thought, which means I pray 
God as I remain still I only have today.

A new approach (12 steps)

​Your share geninuely inspired me
It truly did, 
You said you start a day with a prayer to set you on your way
I know that recovery isn’t easy, as you appreciate that you only have today.

It was lovely seeing you
It was a lovely share that spoke from the heart, 
I know the higher power has got you, this is a new method to learn how to re-start.

You did inspire me
And to see that you are on your way gave me hope, 
I have been 20 months sobers and I thought ‘that was it’ genuinely before, 
I hit rock bottom and didn’t know how to lift my spirit off from the floor. 

Michelle, you are a blessing and inspiration
You should be so proud of what you are doing, 
The past is the past, you won’t return or repeat, 
You are sticking to your higher power… negativity has already faced its defeat. 

“Well done Michelle… you are proud of you and I am…xxx”

People do care

​People do care
This is what I have thought, 
I personally don’t like feeling vulnerable, as I use to be dramatic as I can
I didn’t know what was in place in the journey I was waiting to land. 

People do have hearts
There is a part of the body called the ‘amygdala’, a hormone that encourages you to care
And to be honest some of us are more caring than others, well that’s what I have measured and declared. 

People are who they are
People will be the best version they want to achieve,
Some are attentive and are trying 
Some are less so, as they are vying. 

The struggles in mental health and wellbeing has reached it fullest 
I know by the grace of God, none of us are perfect, despite becoming truest.

So enjoy the day
Stay and be blessed, 
There is a poem waiting for you to read, 
think about it and learn from the words that we feed.

Thank you Liz

​Thank you Liz
I thank you for taking the time to listen to me, 
I am feeling better now, I trust you, God bless thee. 

Thank you for liking the poems, 
They do come the from the heart, 
I have rested after our talk as I pray for you, those words never depart. 

I need to do me at the moment
I am tremendously tired and do not know what to do, 
But I am sure with my faith behind me, there is plenty to ensue.

I thank you for having this skill of listening and taking your time with me
I thought no one cared, and be honest after a loss I didn’t feel at all free, 

People assumed I should lift my spirits high
That wasn’t the case, as to be honest I didn’t know what my next move as internally I was saying goodbye. 

I want to say thank you,
God bless you for all future endeavours you seek, 
I pray for you everyday Liz, as the walk of life should be considered as a retreat.

“Thank Liz, you are blessing, just one listening chat was appreciated… you are blessing❤️✍🏽”

All you can do is try

​We all know this, we simply need to keep trying;
Need to focus on your higher power as the next day you will be surviving.

You can’t rush things
And causing angst with speed that has no place healthy for the heart,
Time doesn’t stop for anyone, as a slight delay comes with a hopeful start. 

Time has been my friend and sometimes it hasn’t at all, 
Somethings I crave for straight away
But better still I need to be patient and seek to obey.

Trying is always required 
It needs an effort to keep going to the next level in order to achieve, 
As long as the effort is there, there is something spiritually to receive.

10 months and counting. 🙏🏽✍🏽

​Davina, you should be proud of you,
As 10 months has arrived, and soon it will be 10 years, 
You are a blessing and loved by many, this challenge you have overcome and slay any fears.

You are a blessing
Especially to me, but this occasion is about you, 
Stay strong and make it to 11 and 12 months thereafter,
Why not you to receive a happy ever after!

You put in the work 
And you put in the distractions to make this happen for you,
There is no magic ingredient to get you to reach a better place, 
The graft and the belief that you put in 
This is a resounding and pivotal win. 

Davina you received protection and came out the other end,
Your grandchildren and children would be so proud of you, as you are an exemplar that we all shall commend.

“Well done for 10 months🙏🏽❤️”

Just for today

​Just for today, that is all we have 
Just for today we can love and be kind,
Just for today we can speak to our higher power,
Just for today that’s all we are promised to give
Just for today we can show the world how to live.

Just for today the desire is be in the present,
Just for today we can remove our resentments and fears,
And just for today we are able to encourage and cheer.

Just for today I may not say a single word to you, 
As we are looking for conversation to bring us spiritual peace,
Isn’t that what should happen? and learn to show this side at the very least ? 

Just for today we say we are never alone,
God is omnipresent, isn’t that what he have been taught as as shown?

Just for today we can show appreciation and hope,
And just for today I am promised to walk with God… that’s how I cope….

“Just for today..”

Never alone.. never

​Once you pray
You know there’s a power higher much bigger than you, 
Don’t think you’ll be alone, There is always a friend staying
But more importantly, he doesn’t need to be physically present.. as they are always praying.

You see, no one can stay around forever, 
Despite the pointless argument that take place, 
People will look at life in a pessimistic slant, 
I know God is fully in-charge, that is where I focus my energies to enchant. 

God will bring in, 
And God shall take away, 
Focus yourself with him, as he is holding you everyday, 
It’s not that guy Jason….? He is annoying and should  go away (lol). 

I never say goodbye
I never said thank you too, 
But remember this, if you believe with all your heart God is your company and your friend,
There is no one else that you need to live with, nor depend.

Jason

Do you think… or know?

​I say into the rooms of A.A. Learning about me
Taking from a share where you look the similarities and not the differences, 
This mean no judgement from any party
Looking to a new life, whole hearty. 

You are never alone on this earth
If you feel like that, then connect with God and fellows 
I am needy for the spirit that has saved me countless times,
I say these words through hope.. doesn’t matter if they rhyme.

You are in a predicament because that’s how life is, 
You may of played if safe, and that’s okay, 
We all need to know what’s going, but the fact is God knows what is going on today.

Don’t be too hard on yourself 
That is what we all do, 
I suggest starting the day with a prayer, and accept what God has for you.

21 again x❤️✍🏽

​My fun loving and thriving friend 
An artist and celebratory peer whom it am grateful for to literally ‘ear bend’.😂

Sioux, you are delight
A person I am honoured to have known, 
This is a blessing from my higher power, as the laughter has always grown. 

You are helpful and send daily posts to inspire, 
Today I am blessed to have a friend like you, a relationship I am humbled to have for which I admire.

I love the blue hair 
And the bestest hugs I’ve ever had,
Sioux, you are right… you are 21 again as celebratory greetings which I say with kindness… and glad.

“Happy birthday Sioux… we love you…”

It’s a pattern

​it’s a pattern that we all have to endure
People will leave us, and one day we shall leave them, 
Navigating this journey which God has provided us with hope
And with that we had a life through long, long rope.

For some it has been easy
For others it has been an almighty struggle,
I personally have learned from the mistakes I’ve made,
Despite feeling troubled in each tirade.

I have loved, lost and love the people that I see today,
For others? Well? They don’t have a place in my heart to stay.  

You see, I am a addict,
A person not entirely to be understood, 
And isn’t that statement meant for us all…
There shall be victories and struggles before God decides to call.

Good morning…

​Good morning all
Please speak three affirmations with me; 
And looking for a way forward for all to see; 
I pray for gratitude for today from the air that you and I breathe
And surrendering to you almighty God of my understanding, from what I truly believe. 

I pray for teachings on this day to guide me, for the love of you and I,
This journey has already had its stumbles 
It’s calmness is what I say to this earth, before I say goodbye.

I thank you for the people who I have met along the way,
I know there is a higher power looking over me now and forever that I may. 

I thank you for this morning message which holds me very close, 
And for the people who read this message, then that is for you as God of your understanding loves you the most.

“I love you ❤️🙏🏽”

That night!!!

​That night you left the earth shook me..
As I needed to hone into my faith, 
The tears did not come out yet… yet I was scared as the person I loved so much closed their eyes as I clenched him with a warm embrace.

I miss you Dad
Yes, I’ve said that countless times in the past,
I know I feel humble right now, yet these feelings won’t always last. 

I now have people there for me,
People I never thought would be there for me before, 
You would like them Dad… you would be pleased as I feel loved
I am going to pastures new soon as peace is what I need from up above. 

You see, that night saw a massive change,
Your protection was poignant and everlasting, well that is what I thought
I thank you for the memories, both good and bad.. plus the help of ann impossible situation which I was unable to have ever fought.

Mr A Andrews…

​The name I would love to see on paper today,
I am referring to my Dad, my friend, saviour and the one I accept is not here day by day.

His name, Andreas.. a beautiful name and a git with a cheeky grin,
I miss you Dad, my mucker… ‘f.ck off’ he said to me most of the time
I would hold those words close to my heart… those words are comfort… that’s what I find.

“Dad” I miss you man,
I miss you more and more each day, 
I am not crying anymore, I know you are in heaven, by his grace
And in a heavenly kingdom, which I pray for us all to one time face.

I know you are here,
Right here, in my heart
I have to start learning about myself again
Accepting slowly that you are no longer here my friend.

I miss you… you know that!
I know you are looking over me and others whom you love,
Thank you Dad for the memories, especially the latter years I shall never think to shove.

What we want … And God’s timing is what you get…

​It’s that classic, ‘I want what I want’
You see it’s all about timing when you receive what you pray for, 
I know through my higher power,  which protects you and I.. so much more.

Our egos can get the better of us, 
Pride can be your fall if you allow it to be;
Stay close to God of your understanding in order to be set free. 

You see, you learn in seasons where questions won’t be answered and authorities won’t support, 
It’s a difficult time we are currently facing,
It’s fellowship for me personally, that’s the hope I want to be embracing. 

You see in 2023, the wheels fell off my mind went for a crash,
I broke up with someone, bullied at work, suffered depression as I cried and felt I was going berserk. 

I lost my Father 5 months after, my rock to the core
And I left the family home, as I didn’t trust no one anymore.

But 3 years on.. 2026 is the year,
I have found love again, recovering from my addiction and looking to start a life elsewhere
It’s the hope from God that I am humbled about…that’s my honorary… to be fair. 

Jason

Encouragement for each other

​Why do we encourage?
It’s not to patronise, even though may of us are hard on us,
I pray for all people to be okay… through these following words that I ought to trust.

I don’t need A.I., I need to speak my truth with a human fragility, 
I know that I am a blessed soul by writing these words freely and tranquility. 

You see, I am me
And you are you, 
If we connect…? Great
I would want that, a humble fate. 

Life will pose many struggles to endure, 
I have messed up on countless occasions, and people have reminded me which serves no purpose 
Actually the outcome had made me feel utterly worthless. 

I am here today
And tomorrow is never promised, 
I am not being morbid, just speaking how I find
Just be open today… and also learn to show that humility from the heart and mind.

Jason
15th July 2026

A place I pray for you to be…

​3 years ago I was f.cked
I didn’t want to be on this earth, 
Yet bit by bit I have found a way, 
I can only thank God for allowing me to stay..

I tried to take my life
When you reach that place you do not turn back,
Don’t lose yourself today, that’s all I say, 
Stop! Seek help and try to do things step by step, 
Someone may need to read these words in order to reset. 

When you lose yourself you can’t see a way through 
You will get a grip on the solution, it’s the passage which God wants for you to ensue.

I was messed up, 
Fed up of life and felt alone, 
People saying silly things, which contributed to internal groan. 

You are here, 
I am praying for you right now, 
I may never meet you but I do care,
I want you to feel blessed, as in spirit I shall be there.

Jason

A safe space..

​It’s so cliche, ‘work it if you work it’,
Recovery is part of the journey, 
Take your time with your higher power and fellows, 
You won’t delve into politics or arguments, you shall become mellow.

We are all in recovery
That when you live on life’s terms, 
And you turn out how you turn out.. and follow the passage from the place you shall discern. 

It’s natural to ask questions,
It’s natural with who you want o speak with, 
It’s beneficial to be in a safe space when you speak, 
And not be with people who thrive on arguments from their place that they seek.

I don’t need to be around people who debate
They serve not place in my life to be fair, 
I am stating agreeableness works for us all, 
A healthy discussion is a nice direction and doesn't not call. 

Jason

The desire to stop

​Stopping an addiction is one we often foresee,
Overcoming this struggle is a weight of expectation but you will do it, just wait and see!

Overcoming a situation when the drink and drug takes a hold, 
It has to be a higher power to help you to stop, so go and be bold. 

Life is a balance but we didn’t see it like that, 
We thought we under our own human distinction could stop at the drop of a hat. 

Remember today is the prize as love shall consistently win, 
And if you think love is a soft word, then how over that word overcomes sin?

Behind the 3 Lions

​Come on England!
So many times you have been close to win,
As in their way is Argentina, the defending champions who have captured the title on 3 occasions.
“Come on England” make us proud
We are roaring from the roof tops as desire shall make us all loud.

Come on England 
It’s our game to win, 
We just need to win this semi- final and show the world we can perform on the greatest stage
This is chapter awaiting to take place, and seeking the glory onto the next page. 

Come on England 
It’s your time to shine, 
We have won with true grit and desire,
We are not here to make up the numbers, this is passion, skill and tremendous amount of fire.

Come on England
You have beaten Argentina before, 
The stage is set for the English to win
As the World Cup trophy is their for the taking, as we are looking to bring back the world title…along with almight grin.

“Come on England…. Believe.. simply believe”

I miss you…. But it will be okay

​It’s that classic, you draw closer to God when the people you love leave
You remain humble and joyous at times, as you crave to see the light,
Searching for our boundaries and remove yourself from any fight. 

You see, my Nan was my best friend, and my Dad took over that mantel when God asked her to leave, 
Don’t get me wrong? I am not upset! I just want to see them one more time… that’s what I believe.

You see I miss them, they made me smile and truly protect
My heart feels lonely, but you know what? I had the honour of loving them… now I reset.

Moments of vulnerability shall always be there
They showed the world their prowess and guile, which we all adored, 
They knew how to ‘turn up’ as these words are angle.. and cut through just like a sword..

“Miss you Yiayia, Dad and Auntie… The good ones leave first…”

Dear Leon…

​Dear Leon
I know you are here;
Don’t worry my child, God has taken you to a new home to be free as you are no longer in pain,
As I see your heart, as through these words this is hard to sustain.

We miss you so so much,
Yes, our hearts are broken but we know you are safe, 
We can hear you my beautiful child, like the calming sea of waves which can sound loud or mild . 

Darling we shall be alright, 
It’s a lot to take in as we can see your face, 
Time shall pass, as you were taken far  too soon
We are still right now, no movement in our heart beats to a still tune. 

Dear Leon
Today is a day we won’t understand at all, 
Our heads and hearts are numb to the point of unrelenting tears,
You are in heaven my darling… peace shall remove anymore fears.

Community vibes

​Hi….
Just saying hi and hope you are all well?
I am reaching out to you good people,
Expressing regret for my error, it was a moment of strain,
I pray to you and my higher power as I hope and get a chance to return again. 

I am in a much better place 
I volunteer and seek the services I need to regroup, 
I know you had to make a decision but I think of you guys always, as I miss what I appeared to have lose.

I am in a better place 
I genuinely say that from the heart,
I miss the community you gave to me, 
I have genuinely learned from my lesson, I would like you to give me a second chance please.

It was the community 
The aims to keep on growing, 
I am sorry for my outburst, but today I am moving forward and simply showing. 

I miss you guys so much
I would be humbled and honoured to regain my old role, 
I can’t thank you enough for this opportunity before,
I say these words humbly and much much more.

Safeguarding one’s self

​I don’t want to argue 
I don’t want to vent, 
I just want to be protected through the powers of blessings which are sent.

You see, if I ignore you… you can’t hurt me,
I ignore you because I am protecting you and I, 
I am genuinely a nice person from day to day, but too many opinionated thoughts shall get me riled up so please go away.

A day at a time 
And I am sure you mean well,
But I need my head space as you need to be comfortable from these words that I tell. 

You see, I was f.cked and you spoke a lot of shite, 
So I safeguard my actions as I am tempted to follow up with a fight.

Frail…

​people don’t always acknowledge others frailties,
Yet, people are allowed to be broken and need that bit time to repair,
Taking into consideration that some maybe suffering, so use your emotional intelligence in order to be there.

You see, I miss my Dad
He was my genuine rock,
We didn’t always get along, we would try to get one over each other through a fickle moment to mock. 

The struggles of mental health hurt the head and heart,
The functions of life can reach a boiling point which no one needs,
Speak to the heart as encouragement is the place you ought to feed.

Thank you, as it shall be okay,
My struggles will always be there, but I need to leave it in the hands of God, 
The one in charge, and divine one gives you a prod.

Walks by faith

​faith can be works of blindness 
It can also show a glimmer of kindness, 
As I wake up to another day sober, taking my time to get stuff done and perhaps do that task a bit more slower.

So take your time,  it’s a marathon not a sprint, 
Learn from past mistakes that you can’t over turn,
There is hope from the perspective when we all discern. 

I pray everyday 
It’s humbling, reassuring and doesn’t get in harms way,
It’s a choice to wake up and simply pray 
Yet it will soften past blows where the amends can be worked on for today. 

So thank you for this first breath
Thank you for free will to strive,
And most of all thank you for my friends and family who are blessed today and mostly are alive.

Living on life’s terms

​We will all encounter changes in life, 
We will face a change when things turn on their head, 
Some things are managed by free will and others are hasten decisions that are led. 

Life is a tapestry
It will encounter many turns that derive,
I look towards God always, a prayer can make the difference to when you thrive. 

Life can be good,
It’s a prayer that captures hope, 
No point arguing right now, that lowers the spirits down the slope. 

You see, you are blessed when you pray
As long you give thanks to your higher power, as those opportunities give you moments to be okay.

Life is a mixed bag
Life can be grand on this path, 
But people introduce chaos into the mix,
As I prefer is a solution.. a chance to bring on board a worthy fix.

A poem’s purpose

​A poem makes you think
Or is it an opinion that causes you to blink?

People can write with love, or pain held inside,
Today you are able to find a poetic solution in order to strive.

And as things don’t work out the way you want, yet that is character to lift the soul,
How do we learn developing the character God wants us to be,
Remain humble, find a solution and set the feeling inside free. 

The poem is an art that’s full of creative words,
The walk we discover can cause challenges which brings us growth, 
We are moving closer to our mortality therefore accept when you coast. 

The poem can speak how you feel 
The poem can be a moment to bring laughter, 
A poem can be anything you want, even an array of words to bring forward your view,
An open mind of literacy and putting your heart on the sleeve, 
these moments you won’t be able to lose nor choose to leave.

The love of writing….

​Writing is freedom
Writing doesn’t argue back, 
Writing doesn’t interrupt you, unless you ‘over think’ what you want to say
Just write it down and learn the art to be in the present.. and stay. 

Writing is a perfect tool
Writing states the place you are currently at, 
Writing is elevating sometimes… and can switch so aptly… just like a drop of a hat.

Writing is feelings expressed in a free flowing sense
Writing is a blessing from God for you use, and released many feelings that make you tense.

Writing is humbling 
And can be professional too, 
Writing is motive to express… just get a pencil, pen and paper prepared
As thoughts from the heart can be private or easy to declare.

This A.A. Life

​This life is brilliant 
Well I suppose it’s been a pivotal time to be dry, 
I no longer crave for drink of alcohol, compared if I kept going I would inevitably die. 

This A.A. life you meet friends quickly
And if you are empath then you shall meet more, 
You will give a chair and learn from mistakes that you once adored. 

You see life as a recovery alcoholic is a blessing 
It’s a second, third, fourth or further chances to work the programme and make amends
The journey of sobriety has now become a loyal and humble friend. 

I knew I was an alcoholic since I was a young boy drinking that fosters, from which I liked the buzz
The endorphins which are released in the body to give you a thrill, 
Next minute it becomes a part of your life, which is a telling chill. 

I am pleased I stopped in the nick of time
I had to do it on my terms, but accepting God as my divine. 

The A.A. Rooms are supportive and loving 
The A.A. Rooms are welcoming and my family today,
May you find peace with your soul, and through your higher power you can obey.

Dear Lord

​Dear lord I remember 40 years ago like yesterday, 
those distinct moments when I was a child. 
When often I would experiment and go that bit wild. 

Dear Lord
I pray for you to stay, 
I know you do.. it’s me who tends to stray. 

That’s why prayer is important for the heart
It balances our conversations and makes us stay humble, and not cause that manic start. 

Today is all I have 
Today is all you have, 
I know that sounds finite but its the truth.. that’s what I feel, 
The power of now is the guide, as ‘moments’ today can become surreal.

The power of ‘NOW’

​What do you do when nothing is working?
Do something?
Or pull yourself together and face it head on;
How many times we shall get it wrong…

It’s about the ‘now’ and the way you move forward, 
Writing these words and finding your path, 
The light of hope, is to remove any forms of wrath.

You may understand these words, you may not
I am staying with God today, that is worth a humble shot. 

My way is through a prayer
Yet the higher power that hits me spiritually is my guide,
Today is all we are promised, as I won’t ever let my spirit divide.

Birthday with my friend.

​J, stay blessed and see the light
Today is about you…so other things can stay away… and that comes with might.

Take your time and remember what peace you have brought to me,
There is a lot said but that is you, 
questions and answers is refreshing in what you do.

Keeping training, 
Keep staying close to God,
He is your corner stone after all,
so I shall pray for you, as there is plenty for you to embrace before you call.

Keep being you 
And keep getting closer to God, 
Embrace this day which belongs to you,
The light on this day is key
I am praying for a wonderful birthday, as you know through God… you’ll be set free.

“Happy birthday J… stay blessed ❤️🤲🏾🙏🏽”

Just for the now…

​Managing ‘the now’ is the important way to walk 
Looking at people’s positives is seen to be hard to do today, 
Then I am only speaking generally, that’s a honest thing to openly say.

This is on life's terms
We look for hope despite depravity of growth, 
We are all deserving of something, we no longer need to go down that slope. 

Thank you for this day
Thank you for this life, 
Thank you for this guide, 
Thank you as refuse anything else to collide.

Thank you for union
Thank you for connection, 
Thank you for blessing us today 
The walk of hope is to be cherished, imbued as rest shall always be there to lay.

Stay safe and recover… first step.

​The recovery of life is the way forward for all to see
No more alcohol or drug taking, we are about to receive a new life… just wait and see.

No point complaining what we did, it’s already been done and dusted 
It’s the surrender of our higher power is the place we want to be trusted. 

Fellowship is strength 
Fellowship is kindness through it all, 
We have fallen short with our own doings, this is a pending wake up call. 

Recovery is the new life for many
We are their for each other, every step in the way, 
We are all ‘words in progress’, as the heart of hope is simply manifested for today.

Sinner Triumphant

​This guy has been through it all
He is a champion and one of a kind, 
This years’ Wimbledon has seen its ups and downs, that’s what I find?

Sinner the victor
Zverev played his part, 
The winner was clearly tennis, the endurance and foundation was merely the start. 

Sinner with his all round game
Zverev, the champion of Paris a month before, 
He almost pulled off another Grand Slam triumph.. but Sinner possessed that bit more.

Sinner showed sheer grit
And didn’t let the title he won last year to ever think to slip
Victory belonged to this great man
Humble in victory, that’s where he stands.

Grand Slam number 5, and more to follow 
God bless this Italian maestro whose game is suited to all tennis courts,
But today was his day on grass, and how well did this gentleman truly fought.

“Well done Jannik Sinner… Wimbledon Singles title number 2”

Faith and not by sight…..

​Never leave your higher power alone
As there is always a test, 
time will pass and you shall be able in yourself spiritually invested. 

As time passes, new dawn will arise, 
Their is hope for everyone, 
Even through the depths of life,
There is hope and a willing 
Even a new life after addiction is quite thrilling. 

You have a clear head
No longer acting with self doubt or pause, 
Today is a beautiful day, 
And with that, you seek what is taking place now
Please take it easy, there’s no need to through in the towel. 

Tomorrow is tomorrow 
See the light of the day and say a prayer, 
I have repeated this countless times, as it’s always true God is always there.

Just pause…

​Recovery is a relationship between you and God,
God did gave you free to decide to take the drink or drug,
He knows your abilities, and knows you are not a mug!

Recovery is life’s chance to find a solution,
You are in the presence of your higher power therefore, good for you from this you are choosing.

Thank you for blessings 
Thank you for today,
The moment you are poured with grace,
There is a recovery taking place.

Work with God, he is the one who loves you the most, 
Be gentle on yourself today, pray and don’t allow anyone to rile you, in this walk of life that you coast.

God’s timing

​Everything is equated to time
What we eat, breathe and do
The time is to be in the present,  and leave it to your higher power to ensue. 

Time is powerful
Time can remain still through the chaos we try to escalate further, 
I prefer be a child of God and work through the programme; that is my default server. 

It’s about time 
The obvious is often there, 
But it’s the patience we need to have for ourselves, is the one through God for whom that we all ought to declare.

Cherish this day
And cherish this time, 
And if you are need of a prayer; then make that your default to start your day,
I simply believe your higher power has the final say.

A time and a place.

​You may wonder what place in life you are at
You try to understand how it went terribly wrong, 
Today is the start of something beautiful, 
Praying, simply praying is so unbounded and beautiful. 

We try our best
What else can we do, 
We question and eventually get to love God, the path that is humbling and freeing
Looking to your spiritual power that is kind and so freeing. 

We get caught in the anger
We get caught in the dirt it throws at us, 
We are trying our best when we get older
I prefer to call it wising up and focusing to getting bolder. 

There are beautiful people out there
Yet sometimes you take on the dirt which people can’t manage themselves, 
Are they looking for solutions or seeking insurmountable wealth. 

We try our best
And we try out best to be the best version we can find, 
It starts with the spirit… and through the Lord you shall walk a path that enters the heart and mind.

Recovery of life ……❤️

​LIfe is a challenge 
We all know this is the case, 
Some people are very ambitious
And some are not so, 
Some people simply need to take stock and grow. 

Some people complain 
And then they shall say: ‘get on with it’ in the end,
A strange combination of phrases, and when they add ‘I don’t know what I am saying’,
Therefore be accountable for your speech which to your and soul is disobeying.

You see, as for me.. I love who I love
I dont want to dismiss people but sometimes they need to go,
There is a Father in heaven who is asking you to simply show. 

We are all ‘works in progress’
Some are on a journey to excite,
Others need to cause some trouble but that often leads to contrite. 

Life is a challenge 
Life is yours to accept, 
No one gives anyone anything, and if you do receive then accept that as a gift, 
And no one should judge anyone… That’s God’s job to love his children through a spiritual and loving lift.

People’s recovery is different (A.A. Poem)

​People come in all types,
And characteristics do vary,
After all none of us can be the same, 
We can have similar traits but all we have is today.

Recovery is like that, 
Some adopt the programme of 12 steps and AA after treatment,
But we need to keep reminding ourselves we only have today, 
Nothing else matters as God decides our future, the principle is a strong hold to keep you at bay.

We are addicts after all, 
We no longer need to put ourselves down, 
There is a higher power moving towards us, we need to focus on that, otherwise we will drown.

Some people don’t make it
Some people go back and think it will be alright, 
The programme of the steps and the A.A. Meetings will hold you tight
The first step forward is the start of a spiritual and humble fight.

Moan vs prayer and training ✍🏽❤️

​You can’t do both by the way
If you pray there is a blessing which removes moaning 
I am not on this earth to complain or also start groaning.

A prayer is a lift 
Moaning is seldomly done,
It’s criticism to our souls and people around,
Praying is a tool that puts your feet on the ground. 

Praying is the way
It’s easier than that moan which from time to time needs to be done,
But don’t make the latter your default, as prayer is the victory that has already been won.

So I’ll stick to prayer
I’ll rather ‘turn the other cheek and serve”
This is a life worth living, there I’ll sit still and observe.

Samaritians

​When I feel low
These people lift my soul, 
It takes a unique individual to let you speak the sadness in your heart
And wanting that feeling to simply depart. 

Samaritans
These are angels that protect your heart,
They help manage your feelings, which all feels lost 
As you wondered what contributed this falling at an almighty cost. 

The lift my spirit for simply listening to this broke soul
Thinking there is nothing in life that can be recaptured or whole. 

It takes a special person to be attentive and caring 
And when I was told once ‘we may not know you, but we do care’.
 
Samaritans are a blessing 
And Samaritans are my Angels who have been there time and time again, 
If you ever need to release your thoughts when you reach a stand still
Remember there are these people, who are humble and everso real.

Addict I am..but recovery has allowed me to grow.

​Recovering is the place I shall always be 
CBT methods, that is Cognitive Behaviour therapy to you and I,
CBT work for many but for me personally I release a sigh.

But I won’t knock it as it helps others, 
It’s about faith for me, as public health statistics often shudder. 

Recovery is the point for me,
I felt hopeless and wasn’t able to flee, 
I wanted to end it, that’s how close it got…
I didn’t feel I was able to give life a worthy shot.

People giving advice which caused triggers
I was a frail soul, as the taste in my both crave something much more bitter.

Yet I am trying, and today is all I can hold onto, 
yes, I want more, but my human fragilities never win, 
I need an almighty faith in my higher power, as other actions I wont’ need to bring in.

Humble your heart… today

​Humble your heart
Pray first and let the higher power set,
we are waiting for you to seek and find
Generally until we see the Father you could be blind. 

I won’t throw the word ‘God’ down your throat, 
I just pray for you as peace is what I crave, 
I have always been in a struggle through my own faults which I thought I braved. 

I try to be at peace
I am trying Lord, I really am, 
i know you forgive me but that is struggle
I get myself into a predicament and a muddle. 

I humble my thinking
I humble my way forth, 
I cry and then raise my smile,
I spoke to someone, which I needed to invest time.. that took a while. 

Today I look to a new beginning
The same feeling won’t always appear, 
I need my faith to be instilled in me, as the days ahead I shan’t possess no fear.
