Two Poems from our Inspirational Poems, Motivational Poetry Collection

 
 
THE LORD'S PRAYER, MY WAY
   
Author: Jacinta Ramayah
   
Poem:
THE LORD'S PRAYER, MY WAY
   
  A short but difficult prayer with
a wealth of meaning,
living it and following its ways,
need lots of practising,
To mouth the words quickly without
examining every line
is like running through a poem that
doesn’t seem to rhyme.

Given by the Saviour when asked
how to pray,
“With your hands lifted to God,
say it every day.”
The first line certifies his abode, the
second - His name to extol,
With hope too, His rule will descend
to save every soul,

His way is right I know, whether
with angels or man,
So why do I turn on him in anger
when my will ain’t done?
I ask for enough to get me through
to run my daily chores,
So, why do I compare with another
who seems to receive more?

I beg pardon for my sins, but when
foes do me great wrong,
asking Him to do the forgiving, is like
stringing Him along.
Don’t make me stray, protect me from
the evils of the world, I cry,
like snatch-thieves, murderers, jealous
workers and Satan who comes by.

This candid conversation with Him, I have,
morning and night,
Sometimes in between, too, when things
don’t go right.
I savour the Lord’s Prayer as I articulate
each word slow,
That I’ll do till the Grim Reaper comes to
take me. Where? I wouldn’t know.

The Demure Lane
   
Author: GURTEG SINGH SAINI
   
Poem: The Demure Lane
   

There were instances when even a drop of wine,
Seemed to be an endowment divine.
When the chirping of the birds,
The clutter of the herds;
And the roaring of the thunder,
Was never actually a blunder.
I am however, looking for that lane,
Which is throbbing with outside pain,
But it leads you to elation,
In fact, total emancipation.
This lane, tread by the select few,
Is antediluvian & ancient, not new.
May the Blessed Souls tread on this path of the munificent Divine,
May the Almighty consecrate them with His Grace Benign.
