'High Expectation'

Nothing is ever all bad
Even when things appear sad.
No matter what goes wrong
We can always remain strong.
Seeing the good in a bad situation
Can lead to a new appreciation
If we can but sit for a while
Rather than become hostile
A solution will miraculously unfold
As if spinning straw into gold.

Title: 'SPIRITUAL INTEGRATION' - Version 2

Title: 'SPIRITUAL INTEGRATION'/Acryl - Visual Poetry by Rev.Bola A.
 
'Spiritual Integration'

Like too many stop signs
In meeting deadlines,
Though challenging at times.
We need the multitude
Of rich environments.
And the fortitude
Of such experiences,
That various cultures can provide.

Thus, in charitable contribution
Towards human evolution
We are enriched,
And not bewitched
By having quite a mix
Of experiences we can endorse,
 Made available to us.

Without this diversity
We would have perversity
Of lifestyle
Even for awhile,
 Our choices would be limited.
This could suppress our evolution,
Like religious persecution.

It has now become integral
To our human constitution,
That people make a contribution.
 And be allowed to choose
Without abuse,
Their own lifestyle.
Instead of having one
Imposed on them from without
For such acts are futile.

Limiting this freedom,
Has caused great misery
Throughout human history.
Mankind must now begin
To live in harmony
With one another.

Ceasing to indulge in misery
We can appreciate diversity.
Instead of running out of rope,
We can manifest great hope
For a better world,
Where everyone can cope.

Revelation 7:9 

After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands
