Dr John Celes Poems

Isn’t there a baby inside you,
You teenager?
Isn’t it alive within you,
You teen mother?
...

I am wholesome;
I am handsome;
I am your boy;
I’ll give you joy!
...

I twist and turn;
I fly so high;
With grace and poise;
Balance in dance!
...

A live kitty
And a live puppy
Atop a TV!
...

God makes the buds that blossom into flow’rs,
And flow’rs to form the seeds for newer plants;
God gives sun-light and bathes the roots with show’rs,
And nutrition, protecting them from ants!
...

When girls must marry ’fore ’tis late,
And boys can’t think of any date,
With future bleak despite degree,
From world of books, they are not free!
...

When God can change destinies of nations:
Appoints, rejects and re-appoints leaders:
Safe-guards, allows the fall of prime bastions:
Converts hearts, minds and souls of His readers!
...

To say a thing and doing it is good;
To do a thing: keep telling it, is bad;
To mince one’s words and speak big lies is worst!
To talk one’s heart out does not suit this world.
...

Job Continues:

Eve-born, man’s life is transient,
And full of troubles, incessant;
...

Jesus saw a man, blind since birth;
His disciples asked Him, ‘Rabbi,
By whose sins was the man born blind-
His own sins or that of parents’? ’
...
