Breath of Life...

A Writer...but first....I'm a Poet. This is for those who enjoy spoken word and the art of Poetry and for those new to it....embrace. A break from the every day hustle!!

Feelings flowing inside my soul like the wind through the tree tops as a storm approaches
Thoughts brewing inside so fresh and ready to be poured out a funnel will be needed to contain the words to a smooth pour
Pouring in to the eyes of those that read that it may manifest itself deep in the hearts of those that believe and those that need to know there is some thing greater then that which we have tried to this point
Allow these words to reach in to the places in your soul that have yet to be tapped and yet to be danced with.
Let the virgin areas of what you have yet to experience be entertained by the heart that flows out in to this poem
See...for a while I have been put up
Haven't wrote poetic words for a season as God began to move my life in to a direction I had not been prepared for yet He prepared me
Moved me in a direction that I have never known
Yet He knew before I was born out of the womb
See, as a poet..I breathe in the words that God exhales out to my life so that I may continue to flow of what it is He has planned
So often in life as God exhales opportunity in to our lives,
We hold it in like a hit
Not wanting to let go
Not wanting to share
And at the point we do...the air is distorted and polluted with the waste that sits inside of our minds and bodies
Missing the chance to share the breath of life with others who need it
Missing the opportunity to grow in the areas we have yet to mature
So many things going on around in the world we use the excuse that we just got "caught up"
Using the excuse that we are only human...we can't help it
We sit back and let those who have held in God's breath far too long run around and cause wars
economic depression
Family separation
Putting those of us who can't find the breath to act out of desperation
Reaching out in selfish manners to accommodate fixes that will never be satisfied
Putting our lives in situations that we can't even breathe out our own breath as God begins to take air away do to the waste we have caused
We push family away
Disown friends
Can't breathe?
We leave the church
Quit jobs
Can't breathe?
People murdering children
Killing each other and self
Shooting up schools
Can't breathe?
Taking God out of everything we once leaned on Him for
Losing generation after generation of children
Lost to drugs, gangs
Can't breathe?
So many words of breath to breathe out I can't contain them,
Words that will need a funnel to contain them as they pour in to the eyes of those who read
Flowing in to the mind and down to the heart
Dancing around like a leaf in the wind from the trees that blow from the wind that God blew across the sky so that we may have breath to inhale and exhale out to the next that God put in your life
But if you hold your breath you hurt yourself
Causing death to fall all around you
Learn to breathe the breath God gives you
The breath of life so that you may blow life in to someone else after He restores it in you
Inhale...lets fix the issues that surround us on all sides
Exhale.....so that others may see them and help with new life
Inhale....take back the generations that have been lost
Exhale.....so those generations can learn of the God that saved them
Inhale.....allowing yourself to catch "God's" breath
Exhale....let's get started

Can you breathe?
