Rhyme and Rhyme

Rhyme brings emphasis. Repetition helps remember. Time is in parenthesis. And my petitions an ascender. 

I follow them on up with pretty little bubbles that fly free. I chase the cloud and find the innocence that once lived within me. I tumble freely down the mountains from the tops into the sea. The valley deep fills me with joy and I am swept off of my feet. 

I float into the dancing waters and I swim beside the fish. I throw a penny in the fountain and I make my sincerest wish. Why look at life like it’s so melancholy in spite of your fact? Why look at situations and get down when life is just a splash? Too short for sorrow. Why live for tomorrow when today is now? I’m going to grab this vine and jump to that side of this jungle right now. 

And you can follow me if you please. Otherwise, I’m going to have to leave. And I will rise up with the sun rays and sway slow beside the trees. And I will melt into the ocean, and make love with the color of life. And you can swallow me like a potion when you arise. 

Dear Mom

Mom you called me incessantly

You missed me every day

You had a healthy hunger for my friendship

You were jealous over me

You got angry with me when I was wrong

You applauded me when I was right

You took my side

You liked me

You listened to me

You talked to me

You gave me advice

You cared

You romanced me

You took me out

You hooked me up

You favored me

You treated me special

You protected me

You guarded me

You got mad at my enemies

You held grudges against my enemies for me so I wouldn't have to do it

You held grudges against me

And then you forgave me

You apologized

You checked in

You called to make sure

You related with me

You reminded me who I am

You remembered my challenges

You cared how far I came 

You cared how far I would go

You challenged me to try

You monitored my weight

You loved my kids

You asked what I cooked

You suggested things that no one else would

You taught me how to wear my perfume

You gave me perfume

You gave me hairbrushes

I wore all your clothes

You gave me your heritage

I cook your recipes

You opened my windows when I was shut in

You gave me more when you had no more

You encouraged my soul in the faith of God

You taught me appreciation

You taught me to fear God

You made mistakes

You didn't pretend

You told me the truth

While you would tell others a lie

You gave me the inside scoop

I watched from the tower

You gossiped to me

You opened up

You held things back

You were my dream

I loved you up close

I loved you from afar

I missed you like crazy

And I still need you now

I feel so deprived of your love oh Mom

You couldn't save me from sin but you just understood me

And you may not have stopped me from crying but you wiped my tears

And I miss your life every day for the rest of my years

Much Prayer, Much Power Beat

Hey you :) O.C.P. back again to share with you some new music. This track is one with a melody on it that I had playing in my soul since I was 7. When I learned how to produce beats I spent some time on it to bring it to life. I want to present it to you now, and confess that WG wanted to do a song to it called "Much Prayer, Much Power," that he may still do, in the future, but for now, this is the bones. I want you to enjoy it. Check it out:




Well, I hope you enjoyed it. Go and grow, and I'll see you tomorrow :)

Keep the Faith

After my tears, I had so many, I had to at once see

That the pain and my perception had to change within me

I am not the bearer of the burden, nor the one who wronged

I do not have evil coming to me, just because my faith was strong

It dawned on me today that many times we press with all that we have to serve God, and then at the end of it, we find ourselves in the pit or being cast into prison like Joseph. I realized that there is a truer truth behind it all. While our enemies may celebrate their victories over us, discourage us, bring us lack, and try to destroy us, God will prevail.

There is no way in God that we can actually sow good and sow good and sow good, and then reap destruction and evil. The harvest is coming, and when it does, and the winter season is over, then that harvest will be abundant!

So the key is to prepare for the best when it arrives. Expect the unexpected. Believe God. And don't stop walking the narrow path. The blessings will come to you, as long as you keep your faith!

Check out this song (one of my favorites) called Behind the Clouds by Json and go and grow! See you tomorrow :)

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit." John 12:24 KJV

A Diamond in the Rough

Behold, here stands before you royalty

Behold, here stands before you gold

Behold, here stands before you awesomeness

Behold, behold, behold!

The majesty of the love inside

The sanctity of the crest of the bloodline

The rarity of the piercing eyes

The depth, the power, the prize

And yet, it is clothed in rags and dirt

And yet, it is plagued with toil and hurt

And yet, it is covered with maggots and mirth

And yet, it is sick, and lonely, and cursed

Who knows the way to unlock its true form?

Who has the heart to endure through its storm?

Who knows the way to make bitter transform?

Who has the power to release it from scorn?

For behold, here stands before you royalty

Behold, here stands before you gold

Behold, here stands before you awesomeness

Behold, behold, behold!

Time, it allows the pressure to change it

Time, it removes impurities, makes it clear

Time, it heals all of her wounds her diseases

Time, time, and time ever here

And he seeks out the diamond with passion and intrigue

He digs with his tools and his hands and his might

He goes down deep getting covered in filthy

He presses with the heart of a militant knight


And he digs up his treasure, he carries it along

And he takes it to the shop, and carefully works long

To shape it to mold it to its purest form

To remove all the dust, to present it upon its throne

He is safe not to crush it or take from its integrity

He wants to preserve its value, its worth

He polishes, shines it, with all of his energy

He protects it, he treasures it, he remembers its birth

And presenting it to the world, alas!

Presenting it to the first, the last

Presenting it to the clergy, the outcast

Presenting it to the few, and the mass

"Behold, here stands before you royalty

Behold, here stands before you gold

Behold, here stands before you awesomeness

Behold, behold, behold!"

Hope you enjoyed this, go and grow, and I'll see you tomorrow :) ~O.C.P.

When the Going Gets Tough

There are times in life when things get very difficult, and it looks like there is no way out. I just want to share a story with you that has encouraged me since the first time I heard it.

An old man and a young man stood before a portrait in a museum. It was a beautiful painting of the devil laughing across the chess table from a bewildered man, and the man looking frustrated, as the devil had put in him in check mate.

The young man said, "How sad!" But the old man, wise with years responded, "Look again, why is he worried? He still has one more move!"

Sometimes it feels like we have lost. It's okay to cry. But then when we look up, we notice that we are still breathing, and there is still a heartbeat in there. We still have one more move. It ain't over.

I wanna encourage somebody who may be struggling today that it ain't over. The painful times are times to learn the lessons of life. So study. Increase your awareness. There is another move hidden in the board. You can do it. And just remember that God's strength is made perfect in weakness.

Go and grow, and I'll see you tomorrow~O.C.P.

"Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed: to morrow go out against them: for the LORD will be with you." 2 Corinthians 20:17
