RABBOUNI (John 20:16) in English

 RABBOUNI

(John 20:16) Jesus arose to open the gate, To reveal the radiance of heaven. Ancient tombs still bear human steps. A startled voice calling "Lord!" resounds. Rabbouni's echo reverberates eternally, Mary Magdalene was fervent that day. At dawn, she sought the sepulcher. Her heart heavy, tears yet to dry, Then Jesus' comforting voice startled her. The day shone brightly with morning sun, Unveiling a realm of celestial jubilation. From eternal slumber, Christ resplendently resurrected, From the dawn's first light, I shall open the passage to everlasting life, Despite the myriad adversaries, All bow before the Master's dominion. Rabbouni! Rabbouni! Her spirit fervently calls, "Teacher!" Rabbouni! Rabbouni! You are the way, My timeless joy, My soul ablaze with exultation, My lips raise hymns to the heavens! ALLELUIA! ALLELUIA!

OUT OF THE BLUE/The Shadow of The sunset

 OUT OF THE BLUE



OUT OF THE BLUE


Out of the blue, a fine gentleman appears. 

He often sends flowers and kind greetings. 

He promises that he will be honest and sincere. 

Although he knows I am already taken.


Out of the blue, a fine gentleman emerges. 

He is working on projects for a major oil company. 

A part of the "Cylinder" is broken and requires a replacement. 

He desperately needed my assistance, and I felt completely helpless, 

even without a penny in the bank.

I understand the immense significance of this project to him, 

for the sake of his only daughter's bright future.

As a single dad, he has a good reason; he would lose everything.

He kept insisting that I assist him.

It's frustrating to discern what's real or fake in this discombobulated world."


THE SHADOW OF THE SUNSET



Dear Father, in the sunset,

The colourful sky fills my soul with ecstasy.

The North wind blows, rustling the branches and leaves.

My soul is weary,

Passing through this long and tiresome road,

Despite the hardships,

Although quietly lonely.

Dear Father, there are so many things

I would like to speak with You,

Your love always shining bright,

Feeling with excitement and enthusiasm.

In the afternoon, the dark clouds fly,

Carrying the shadow of Your presence,

Singing the song of loyalty.

A Special Bond, Jesus Walked on the Water

 JESUS WALKED ON THE WATER

When Jesus walked on the water.
A mystery beyond my grasp.
He demonstrated His divine power.
He reveals himself as the Son of God,
"Nothing is impossible for Him."
He can control over the force of nature.
When Jesus walked on the water.
A mystery beyond my grasp.
This miraculous act served.
As testimony to His disciples,
Witnessing and strengthening their faith.
“Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid”
(Mark 6:50).
When Jesus walked on the water.
A mystery beyond my grasp.
It symbolized of transcending the limitations of the
world's.
He offers hope in challenging times.
Sometimes we don't understand fully how.

A Special Bond

Holding a smooth, cooling marble in my hand,
Walking on the white sand.
The beach in Florida, is unforgettable.
Clean, clear, teal water.
The sun smiling
The vast, infinite ocean.
Like a long-distance friend,
Waiting and caring.
Above and beyond
A special bond.

In the Storm’s Embrace

 In the Storm’s Embrace

When tempests rage and the winds blow strong, 

In the midst of trials, we are not alone.

 For Jesus, our anchor, holds us tight, 

Guiding us through the darkest night.

In the storm’s embrace, we find our peace, 

As Jesus whispers, “Fear not, I release. 

For I have overcome this world of strife, 

And I’ll carry you through the storms of life.”

Spring Eternal

 




The Morning Invoking

In the morning, I enjoy taking a little walk. 

Inhaling the cool fresh air, and felt the ray of sun kiss my hair.

 I saw a pair of geese walking in the meadow having a conversation. 

The bluebird sings and shows off in the air.

As I lift my eyes toward the vast sky. 

A cluster of white clouds that feel so calm and peaceful. 

Yet, thought provoking so many memories. 

Relentless a ticking of the clock slipping my youth.  

As I lift my eyes to the mountain. 

I thought I was longing for God, 

But God the beloved seeking for me.

 He waits patiently, gently, and faithfully.


SPRING ETERNAL
The Lord is an eternal spring
Sprinkle countless blessings
Inflorescence opens
A little, bewildered.
The Lord is an eternal spring
Always gurgling
A Pure, cool stream
Of Spirit-filled revelation.

The Lord is an eternal spring
The vast ocean of love
His greatness of mercy
His heart invitations
For you and for me
He urgent longing for us.

4 More Poems contributed to Mount Carmel Magazine (June-Sept)

 KNEELING BEFORE YOUR PRESENCE       


Dear Lord! I humbly kneel before Your presence.
My soul inflamed with the fire of love.
I feel immersed like a drop of water in the ocean.
I desire to blossom like a flower in Your garden.
                                        
Dear Lord! I humbly kneel before Your presence.
I offer You my fresh and beautiful dreams.
Filling my restless heart with hope and aspirations.
My lips sing endless songs of praise to glorify Your name.

Dear Lord! I humbly kneel before Your presence.
With confidence, I pray to You.
With Your grace to face challenges.
Journeying through a demand of life,
 I trust in Your mercy for guidance.

Dear Lord! I humbly kneel before Your presence
Everyday I offer my daily worship, and adore You
You're the source of all blessings,
I am forever grateful for Your unconditional love.

RAINDROPS OF GRACE

Raindrops of grace, 
Some drops are dispersed, 
Some are gentle, 
Some are abundant, 
They brighten the heart.

Raindrops of grace, 
Some drops on the green meadow, 
Some drops on the lake, 
Some drops to every home, 
They harmonize vitality.

Raindrops of grace, 
God waters every day, 
From morning rise,
Until nightfall.
God fills our tiny hands, 
Fulfilling all graces, 
Give God our praise, 
Give God our gratitude,
Give God our love, 
For He is our good shepherd.

AUTUMN ON THE MOUNTAINTOP 



Autumn eventide on a peaceful peak.
Clusters of clouds are floating,
The moon tilted in thin shadows.
The rustling sound of the leaves
and the flock of bluebirds
are a source of entertainment.
A family deer is enjoying eating acorn nuts,
Under an oak tree.
The South wind is rattling.
Howling on the mountaintop,
Sitting alone, I contemplate God's grandeur.
Feeling God's love manifest,
While having a good conversation with Him.  
Gradually, He set my mind at peace.
Casting away all my illegitimate fear,
And the anxiety slowly disappears.
In God, I trust.
Jesus Christ my good shepherd.
 
*******
THE WATERFALL

The climate is unbearably hot and humid
Imagine sitting under an unending waterfall
Feeling surrounded by God's presence and providence.
Our souls are dry, and parched,
Our hearts are heavy, lukewarm, and distracted.
We are being deceived, and seduced by sin,
Our emotions are filled with shame, revenge
anger, fear, envy, pride, reluctance, indifferent, etc....
We are hooked on many idols and addictions
We need Your guidance to overcome these obstacles.
Please, cleanse our bodies, spirits, and souls
Under the clear and cool waterfall.
Renewing our lives
Show us how to sustain and remain in You.
Oh Jesus, our savior.

Spring of 2024





 Spring of 2024


SPRING BLISS

Spring has arrived two weeks early this year.

The peach trees bloomed beautifully with pastel pink flowers. 

The plum tree has pure white dazzling flowers.

The vibrant red tulips illuminate the whole landscape. 

The bees are happily pollination without being pesticide.

And I am excited to harvest the dandelion flowers.  

Somehow, the flowers bloom longer on a gloomy day.

They made good remedies and sweet tea.

And provide health benefits.

Create glowing skin, heal canker sore, and also ease the pain.

Spring not only brought beauty but also food sources for every living being.

Grammarly gave me 97 and great job.

The Fireflies

As a child, I was always amazed by the glowing bugs that flew around at night. I later learned that there are over 150 species of fireflies living on Earth. One of the most adorable ones is the blinking beetle that appears in the twilight. People used to catch them and put them in jars as lanterns. Fireflies thrive in beautiful forests with an abundance of trees. Unfortunately, their lifespan is very short - it takes them two years to develop, but they only live for a month. They usually come out in the summer, from June to September. Have you ever seen a thousand of them glowing green like nylon? It's truly a wonder to behold. It's a shame that we now rely so much on electricity and artificial lighting that children in towns and suburbs rarely get to see them anymore.

 The Fireflies



The glowing bugs brought astonishment to a child.
There are more than 150 species living on the earth.
A cute blinking beetle appear in the twilight.
People loves to catches them and put them in a jar for lantern.
In a beautiful forest or in a the wood.
Its took them 2 years to form and only a month to live
In the Summer around June through September.
Nylon green glowing a thousand of wonder?
Like the kingdom of God.
