115. Just Thinking on a Prophecy © Hélène Levasseur

The Act Theatre

What’s a resolution. One resolution. Any individual’s resolution?
What can a poet do when found in the Valley of Humiliation
Haivng been filled with illusions somewhat of past inspection
We found ourselves immersed in fearful frightful oblivion

Time however came within me on a New Year intention
To sense a new fashion in the field of goals and aspiration
Aged and matured I could preview our lives with reflection
Suddenly out came one specific idea within introspection

I believe that we found an invigorating new prescription
Of joy, peace and harmony in the real of emancipation
Bringing forth an abundance of love with redemption
It is a great deliverance to immerse ourselves into resurrection

We’re  babes so bright and now dressed in white worth a million
With unending resilience we are moving forth with great affection
Without fear and fret labelled as poets somewhat out of proportion
We submerge from our mirror image of God like a reknown champion

Holy Wow Poets are certainly Joy, Wisdom and Inspiration
This fanfare brings an a strength of idealistic poetic orchestration
Producing a forthcoming Play Theatric and dramatic in Motion
Performing at the Act Theatre’s Stage prophesied in this generation

If you’re a Poet and you know it – Come and show it!

DSC00275

 A WOMAN CALLED “BITTER-SWEET-BRIGHT” IN GOD’S BUSINESS
HAVING EXPERIENCED ILLNESSES IS FRUITFULLY HELPLESS
HER DUTY IS TO HELP ANYONE TO COME OUT OF DARKNESS
TO SOME OF THE WORLD SHE APPEARS AS AN ENCHANTRESS
BUT UNDER A SATELLITE SHE IS CAMEO-STYLE AND PRICELESS

AS A LADY SHE HAS BEEN UNDER AN ABUNDANCE OF DURESS
HARD TO TELL AS SHE BOLDLY COMES FORTH EXHAUSTLESS
HER MISSION HAS MADE HER THE EARTH’S WITNESS
REVEALING HER INNER WORKS  IN PEACEFULNESS
SHE HELPS PEOPLE DO SELF-STUDIES IN CHEERFULNESS

WE WILL WAKE UP TO HER CALLING OF ARTFULNESS
HER ASSIGNMENT IS TO BRING HEAVENLY AWARENESS
TO BROKEN HEARTED PEOPLE GIVING PREPAREDNESS
TO PULL THEMSELVES OUT OF SILLINESS AND IDLENESS
REACHING OUT TO THOSE WHO HAVE BECOME USELESS

SOME PEOPLE LIKE HER
SOME PEOPLE HATE HER
SOME PEOPLE DON’T CARE WHAT,
IFS AND BUTS ABOUT HER.
NOW ALL OF IT SHE ACCEPTS –
AS SHE HAS FELT THE ABOVE.

 

107. A Quick Note to Roch

images

I, a great fan, patiently waits to meet you, a desolate waitng for you and I know you hear my cry Oh Roch.

Did you know, thanks be to God, that you pulled me out from miry bog and set me upon a rock and made my steps secure. These are scriptural words from Psalm 40.

You put new songs in my heart re. peace of heart and peace of mind following your song “Helene”.

Though I’ve never met you I told my friends the good news of our lovely firendship from afar in soul and spirit.

Wrote this poetic note after singing Psalm 40 with Steve Bell via my Ipod.

We are Kindred Spirits Roch,

Helene

90. Silly Night © Hélène Levasseur

 HELENE IN MID NIGHT

GOT AWAKENED FROM THE RAYS OF THE MOONLIGHT
CAME DOWNSTAIRS TO RID ME OF A RAY-FIGHT
REALIZED THEN THAT IT WAS ALREADY MIDNIGHT
A TIME TO READ AND STUDY ON THIS WEARY NIGHT

I’VE ALWAYS BEEN SOMEWHAT COOL AND BRIGHT
BUT COULDN’T SNAP OUT OF THE NIGHT’S INSIGHT
THAT I WAS GOING TO WRITE A PLAY OVERNIGHT
AND HELP A READER WHO NEEDED TO BE SET RIGHT

I BEGAN TO WRITE ABOUT ME AND MY PLIGHT
AND REALIZED THAT I WAS SETTING A FORE-SIGHT
KNOWING THAT THIS WAS GOING TO BE A FLY-BY-NIGHT
SO I WENT BACK TO BED AND SLEPT ALL-RIGHT.

BRIDE HELENE LEVASSEUR

I thank you all for your love and kind manner

These I cherish whether lesser or greater

They bring me peace, harmony like rose water

My heart and soul feel lighter and brighter

 

Above we Celestial Hosts are always discreet

Our words and thoughts always tend to greet

In fact all phrases and verses are quite sweet

Rephrased joyfully just like a chirpy Parakeet

 

New Worlds’ of wonder are to unfold

Its like finding genuine cloths of gold

Beauty and glory everywhere do manifold

Where the world’s families bloom ten fold

 

Our fresh outlook on life is intensified

Our sweetness and kindness glorified

Our prayers for families are magnified

The new chapters for sure are sanctified

 

Thought I’d let you know that I’m just fine

This life everlasting is sublime and divine

As a matter of fact I toast you all with wine

Blessed by our Lord Jesus Christ as we dine

 

You know we’re God’s Family so trustworthy

There are no divisions as we are light-hearty

That’s because we love praying effortlessly

Understanding God’s plan for everybody!

 

Our Toast to you:

     God’s Blessings with Cheers & Chuckles!
