Catharine Parks Poems

Such an easy word to say
But harder to obey
That small still voice
That gives us a choice
...

Trapped in a nightmare
From which I never wake
Each morning I lay there
My heart about to break
...

Such an easy word to say
But harder to obey
That small still voice
That gives us a choice
...

Your in my thoughts today

Even though you’re so far away
...

If you were to open your spiritual eyes
See what is around you and analyze
A battle in full array
Evil spirits who have gone astray
...

When I stand still and see the mountains
Rivers, trees, waterfalls and fountains
I see the creation of God's hands
Acknowledge all that's in our lands
...

While on my bed I lay
I beheld a sight so clear
In my head it came
And wiped away my fears
...

Here it comes
The famous ruler
A disciplinary measure
A stinging reminder
...

Is there any left in this world today
From the ends of the earth to the other, say
You'll find it hard pressed to see
Any compassion for you or me
...

Fierce
black, beautiful
twice slapped Max
after mating with him
...

The sun will not come out today
It has gone very far away
To the other side of this world
Shining its great light unfurled
...

The Best Poem Of Catharine Parks

The State Of The World

Such an easy word to say
But harder to obey
That small still voice
That gives us a choice
It tells you inside
It's humanities guide
Time to let go
That is how we grow
By letting forgiveness stand
From our Savior's hand

No more need to make up for it
Simply face what you can't admit
Turn away from resentment
Grab hold of new contentment
Let go of all bitterness
Make of yourself a new witness
Forgive all your transgressors
For they have become your oppressors
By asking the one to forgive
So that you can finally live

For hatred breeds diseases
Clutching life in grappling seizes
Many wasted years have passed
Only ruined lives outlast
Sunk to the depths of the barrel
Shriveled souls in drunken peril
I beg of you to forgive
Let go so you don't relive
Forgive those who error
So the Father will be fair

Tomorrow is a new day
Put aside your troubles today
Look to the one who is the Light
He will save you by His might
We are commissioned to forgive
To love unconditionally and to give
So that our days might be long
And our lives will be strong
When bitterness and anger overtake
Give it to the Lord for your own sake

No other commandment given so true
Is as powerful in healing and breaking through
Wrestling with yourself you try to forgive
Holding it in, you repeatedly relive
Time is of the essence
Only one life to live we have since
Don't waste your life
Being stubborn and full of strife
Give your unforgiveness to the master
Before you make life a total disaster

To forgive is a hard thing
Festering is a greater sting
Nothing good can come of it
Release it to the Great Spirit
He will take it away
Never to rise this day
To forgive makes you humble
Rich in spirit you won't stumble

Forgiveness is easy to say
Letting go is the only way
Confessions are good for the soul
They will cleanse and make you whole
Sometimes it is hard to convey
What it is you really want to say
Speaking straight from the heart
Is the only way to get a good start
Being true to yourself
For forgiveness takes care of itself
