 Two Paragraph Story

 

 Afternoon Tea

The quiet tones of Radio 3 filled the room as per usual that Sunday afternoon. The sound of Bach bringing a sense of contentment and being to proceedings for the day. The announcer’s voice was soothing as it filled the air with serenity and assurance as the frost clung to the window.
It was the kind of day so typical in the mind of everything that England should be. Afternoon tea being prepared with freshly baked cake to be served with it. And so nobody was prepared for the shock about to come. One of the silver spoons in the cutlery set had not been washed.

 God
a conversation with a friend

 
 
Seriously, I find that it helps to see God in the feminine at times ... six of one, half a dozen of the other ... away from convention ... I read Biblical Books like "Song of Songs" and learn that God is far closer than we think. God is a personal matter, so the last thing we want is a friend talking at us about that which encompasses us all. I try to see this in science too, as Creation expands, until renewed. Though in the end, it is for us ourselves on a personal level to work it out. I always as a teenager loved what Jesus said, oh you know, about keeping your prayer in your room. Yes, I did the church gig and played music in there, lead services up to Intercession, backed for priesthood; though I still love the personal gig. I can't prescribe anything ... I just know that God is in everything that we do ... it is not a club.

I don't have all of the answers ... I just say Hallelujah anyway ... even when all seems dark ... I did that in prison in short spell there (unjust episode in life) ... I simply read The Lord's Word and prayed ... one of my most cherished memories in life was when I did a reading in the Chapel and guards and prisoners alike gave me a round of applause ... I knew then that God was with me and related so much to St Paul when he was imprisoned

She's The Boss

She's the Boss
What a loss
To be without her
Always the Boss
gets cross
I run and hide
 

Who is she?
I can see
Love her
She is Love itself
I am not bereft
With her in view
 

For She is God
Didn't you know
Other half to grow
See her in all
Hear her call
For She is God


Gag

It was all so hot. Water running off the walls. It had never been like this before in 30 years of marriage, within the bedroom. "Oh! Fecking Hell", screamed Brenda, "You left on the hot tap again!"
