Dr John Celes Poems

I know, my God will work out things for me,
No matter how impossible they seem;
In ways beyond my imagination,
As if I experienced the wildest dream.
...

This girl had slogged for family;
She toiled so hard for others' sake;
She did not eat or keep her cake;
God, rain your blessings upon her!
...

Enabling us in special ways,
God gives His grace as gift,
To whomever He truly loves,
Enabling us do things great,
...

From trudge, my trek had changed into a run;
The mountain was a mound in size with time;
My hurdles melted off like snow in sun;
All strife mellowed and life became sublime.
...

The tree that grew from seed I sowed with care,
And watered well, and loosened soil near roots,
Threw leaves and flowers, remaining only bare,
As pests prevented it bringing forth fruits.
...

The Christmas spirit catches all
The Christian people globally,
As winter's freezing chill is on,
And birth of Jesus happens fast.
...

A Christmas tree of fir or pine,
When decorated looks so fine;
With baubles, stars, festoons that shine,
And gifts and pastries, food and wine.
...

The world I knew in childhood years was good
For, innocent was I with wisdom less;
With growing years, I learnt to turn quite shrewd,
And learnt to say ‘yes' and ‘no' with firmness.
...

I wonder how the New Year tends to be!
It will bring its uncertainties along;
It will spring surprises both good and bad;
But will it be better than the Old Year?
...

If my eyes search for sinful scenes,
Reveling in its joy,
The sin belongs to me alone,
Whether a girl or boy.
...
