A thought by Sinbad the Sailor Man

About This Poem

About the Author

Region, Country: U.S. A. Indiana, Valparaiso, USA

Favorite Poets: Robert Frost, Walt Whitman, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Carl Sandburg these I have read some And so Many More. I have no Favorite or any that I dislike. Whom I consider to be poets; of course there are many Dark and hateful souls, who would cry out and to I will lend an ear, but some. They just leave a awful taste in my heart that I can not bear to read twice. Let alone as many times I would do normally; as I must.

Thank you, Most people give up way to soon. I know I did.

Full circles are not easily drawn on some stones. Some of these stones in the field are over turned easily. But, others they already think they are diamonds, when they are still in the ruff and others still, believe they are finished works of art or gems. When they have not yet been scratched or sketched out.They them selfs were only touched by the artist's and His hands and his first strokes or thoughts. These think they have come to know more then the creator of the Words, and the meanings of His poem or story. Christ is always Gentle and never over barning, with his teachings. I don't believe in Hell Fire teachings for unbelievers or any one, not even the deceivers and the pure evil. For none has been judged yet, some shall perish this is true. And I don't see it in God's Words. Any everlasting torment, for them either. Just a quick end of story Poof! I am a non denominational Christ Man. I take the Good in the Bible and Let the rest go! I have been ouster sized by a couple of denominations, for what I believe and what I have revealed to others while among their presents. So though I have hit Good notes, I often Sing many off key notes too. To many Others who consider themselves true believers, of God and Jesus, but it will all work out in the end. And still I am Like Many in some of their beliefs. I am not religious for a sect's sake, but for My souls sake. I love the Bible, But Don't Believe The Bible is complete Truth! as it is written for todays masses, some do. I believe the story, is where the truth Lies waiting to be found. Like the world. This book is both true and false. Unlike the Christ who I find No, fult with at all! Donnie/ Sinbad the Sailor Man

Wow where you been sinbad

I like this poem of yours and missed you around here. Glad to see your work appear again. I like the flow of this and it's rhythm. Almost like a song perhaps. This part rang so true to my ears Separated only by our songs, yet we all fly We all shall live and we all shall die Yes we all fly and yes we all live and die, it's what we do in the living that presents it self in the dying. Peace at last, peace at last. Love and happy to see you again!! (like your pic too!) Mona xoxoxo TIME well spent is TIME well lived

Hey Magic thanks

Got a stupid Virus that won't leave me alone I still get reatacked again and again I may have a hacker hanging around Because of the way i conect to the internet Wi-Fi is not the easiest to protect from hackers, my screen is flickering now so He is trying to get me I am sure he will sooner or later. Or until I get a better Virus guard and/or a Hard Fire wall once they get ya they don't stop till they get scared off but I don't pay to conect so I'd have to pay someone to hunt the hacker down I still Go to the berry ever now and then, but It has been awlful cold and rainy lately And I've Been sickly and sore so if I get this cleaned upped I can start up again so unmotivated as of late Donnie /Sinbad

The ten Comandments and Moses

One of My Favorite stories of the Bible. I wonder why Satan disputed so with Micheal Over this mans Body. I find more in this book then any other that I've read in my youth. And I have stopped reading most other books because of this book, it sums up every book I have ever read even todays Sci-fi books. When one truly gets into the meat of what it implies and states that is why I read it quite often, unfortunately I see not what others claim they see. Judas I. for an example most see him as a devil or a failed apostle, I do not and I never have and I have said so to many of the churches and religious sects, But have just lately begun to find Like believers. As my self In Judas I's Case Most have considered him condemned by his own Hand. I have never picked up on this, but understand how and why others believe so. There are so little successes in the whole of the Bible by what most consider worthy or pure hearts, in this book I read three too four depending who is counting, I know the book, But not so much the religion that some have built around it. Not as well as some, but better then most. But I have always read a different story then they, for most perceive a set of laws and rules to a kind of betrayal. As where I see a Kind of Kid-napping and a Hostage negotiation, and still others, I have no clue to what they see! Or can't see! This book is a continual read for me when read as a book and yes I have applied much of this Author's philosophy to my own. I confess I believe it to be more then a Book But being of this world in this Dimension I have a very hard Time believing It to be pure and holy as some do! But yet there is some truth in very story! This one I find more truth with every read even if it is revealing a lie or when it reveals the lies. 35yrs plus in and out of this one book and still it speaks to my mind and heart so it is most important and worthy to be read at least by me.
