Short Thought: Breath of God


I see it 

In the curve of your eyes 

A longing for a touch 

Just the breath 

The presence of God's love 


It ushers you 

To unknown paths 

In search of a blessing 

That no one can grab 

It must be given, relinquished, bestowed 

On willing, humble hands 



Love always, Esha

The Joy of Change

Image by Jan Alexander from Pixabay 

 

Speak life 

Anger won't fix it 

Pain will subside 

But don't dwell in it 

Because peace lies on the other side 

Be present in the joy of a new sunrise 

Rejoice everyday that you're alive

Take to the highway 

Feel the breeze on your face 

Watch the birds soar by 

You are at the beginning 

Of wonder and change 

There is joy for those who refuse to stay the same 




Love always, Esha

Machine


Machine

The machine says: 

Don’t compute 

Insert data 

Running numbers 

Synthesize 


Cold to the touch

Metal core 

Wires and cords 

No spirit 


Calculate 

Load…

No emotion 

Void soul 


Work is made easy 

Easy is made hard 

No tellers at the register

Orders filled online 


Digital realities 

Electronic lies 

Job once filled by humans 

Computerized 


Adding and subtracting has declined 

We lack the patience 

We ignore the delicacy of time 

Rushing to oblivion ignoring the beauty of small talk 


Forgetting the interconnected moments 

That unite us all 

Conversing with bankers 

Shopping at the mall 


Don’t compute 

Insert data 

Run the numbers 

Synthesize 


It's the technological age they say

This is evolution

Advancements is the solution

Have a life made of luxury



Love always, Esha

Burning Wick

The warmth generated by the candle sways with desire. It burns with intensity, wax melts under the strain of the fire's all consuming beauty. The wick is eaten by the flame of the present circumstance. But the memory of the smell will stick around forever. The hot intensity of a dream igniting is enough to wake any slumbering soul. 


Love always, Esha <3

Call of the Shepherd


Image by Catherine Stockinger from Pixabay



Open hearts await for your call 

Horns sounds at the mention of your name 

Sadness fades at the acknowledgment of your greatness 

Fears are buried with the troubles of yesterday 

Old news has been placed on the back porch 

Shrubbery can never replace the burning bush from which you spoke 

Silent minds lay ready and eager for thoughts capable of filling them 

Let the blazing sunshine of cool truth give answers to those who seek them 

Sheep graze in the pasture waiting for a shepherd to lead them 

Even when one has gone astray, He chases after it 

And rejoices when the lamb is found 
Ready and willing to provide nourishment and encouragement to the lost

So we await the voice of the loving redeemer

We pray for blessings curious eyes have yet to see 

A brighter tomorrow gilded by the triumphant sound of victory 

We will always hearken to the call of Jesus Christ



Love always, Esha

Stones

The rocks will not cry out. But the rivers shall swell. Still the banks will rise. Yet the sun will shine. The mountain will remain ever high but the brave will climb. For the day will come when you will yell out for a thirst... that the body can not supply. And in place of lifeless stones your soul will cry. 



Love always, Esha
