Title: 'THE MASK' /C.Penc - Prayer Art (From Set) by Rev.Bola

'THE MASK'
A cover as of cloth ablaze
Openings for the eyes wild gaze
Partly conceals the face at night
Especially like a switch alight

Facial imprint worn on head
A figure mount of stained bloodshed

Actors in custom and ritual array
Identifying their fleur bouquet.

Behold thy protective masking coup
Faceless head' a challis droop
Framed to form a watertight vault

Eyes and nose a touch occult
Transparent like some future quest

Or underhand device at best

Oxygen intake like new born bride
The nose and mouth so snug inside.

Title: 'Welcome Matrix' - Short Poem

Using the quickest route

A well guarded secret

Fearlessly leaning, 

And melting,
Into relaxed royal flames
Topped with strawberry syrup ..

Always pink, but soft,.
Never angry, 

She bubbles free.

Hungry, dismal, laughing. ,

Crazy or reclining

She sits still in silence
Welcoming the Matrix.

Title: 'BLOOMING' - Poem by Rev.Bola

 
In Blossomous Blooming...

Your equalizing love
my electrifying heart
Our enlightened
hopes and wills, torrid

In Blossomous Blooming...

Your human rose
my heated future
Our bare raging desires
and dreams

In Blossomous Blooming...

Your will, luminescent,
my longing, lust-filled
Our desires,
like strawberries
hastened towards
Their perfected ripening.

'Pledge for IFAW'

Title: 'IFAW Animals' :Praying-Art by Rev.Bola Ani-

IFAW,
Bringing care and
hope to all animals
around the world
protecting 

abandoned and abused
cats and dogs, 

orphaned baby bears
elephants, seals and tigers.
Innocent animals
in desperate need 

all over this world
Stepping forward
making our earth
a better place for animals.

Five baby elephants
Sikom, Tikla, Tinku
Seperated from their families.
Soni and Harem attacked
by angry villagers for
wandering into nearby crop fields.
Nursed back to health and
perchance to return home
to the wild.
Happy now roaming free
In protected Manas National Park
and Harem, 

now with wild herd family.

Seven tiny bear cubs,
mothers killed by hunters
and left to starve 

to death
in sever winter snow
helped and saved with
feeding bottles of milk
around the clock,

at IFAW
More protection for
elephants, lions, 

zebras and giraffes  

In Kenya's Tsavo National Park.

 
Wolves returning 

to their original habitats
whales migrating 

across the oceans.
dogs and cats receiving
lifesaving medical care
IFAW free clinics 

and rescue centres
where every life is precious.
Thanks to you....

IFAW 

Deeply appreciates your helping.

Title: 'Higher Power' - Poem by Rev.Bola

Higher Power I will make you proud or at least I will try For this is awesome love That sense of your light with mine Standing in the wings of your affection I cannot bare to be away from you I close my eyes and your image plays in my mind, a treasured memory Your voice sings to me like that of an angel I'll always love you. Until the end of time I'm no longer frightened of my ego Gently playing upon Emotions deep, passions fired I hold on tight to you Whom I cherish This feels so right to me I wish to touch your grace I catch my breath at the sight of your loveliness Looking through me You teach me to master my greatness.

'Today God'

Dear God
Today, please help me
to see what I cannot see
to hear what I cannot hear
to feel what I cannot feel.
to bear what I cannot bear
to say what I cannot say
to imagine what I cannot imagine
to pray what I cannot pray

Please help me God
to sense what I cannot sense
to appreciate what I cannot appreciate
to give what I cannot give
to release what I cannot release
to believe what I cannot believe
to reap what I cannot reap.
to dream what I cannot dream
to keep what I cannot keep, and
to reverse what I cannot reverse.

Title: 'Joy'

JOY

My Joy
  is like  

a playful dolphin
leaping through the air
from out the calm blue sea;
boisterous with goodwill 

eager to share 

and spraying

buckets of happiness 

everywhere.
