Young At Heart Poetry Vol 8- Thoughts of You

Thoughts of you keeps surfing on my mind
As moonlight shines into the sea
My heart beats a million times with thoughts of you

Thoughts of you keeps surfing on my mind
And the sea waves lurk memories of you
For I am thankful for everyday that we have

Thoughts of you keeps surfing on my mind
Indeed love has preserved it’s own
Nesting you close to the left artery of my heart
Nesting me close to the right artery of your heart
For our hearts beat as one

Thoughts of you keeps surfing on my mind
Through the storm and raging sea
Unconditional love kept us afloat
And friendship built on trust brought us closer

Thoughts of you keeps surfing on my mind
Your reasoning and not judgment is the bedrock of our love
Your passion defines your strength
And your caring nature echos in your voice

Thoughts of you keeps surfing on my mind
Your geniality blows away wind of doubts
Your love forever binding in your solemn promise to me
Comforting is your sense of humor and love for nature

Thoughts of you keeps surfing on my mind
Embedded in the radiant of your love
Sustained by truth, you have unearth the hidden treasures of my heart
LOVE is all that there is

I was born without a manual, but I knew what my God given instincts were, so I cried when I was hungry, smiled when I was happy, and slept because I felt secure. Now that I am older, I have learned what my God given choices are, to Love, Provide and Respect.

				Young At Heart Vol 8 – Alive Again
			

								


				

			
Alive Again!


The more I look, the the less I speak.


The less I speak, the more I listen.


The more I listen, the more I learn.


The more I learn, the more I know.


The more I know,the more I understand.


The more I understand, the more I realize.


The more I realize, the less I judge.


The less I judge, the more I embrace.


The more I embrace, the more I feel.


The more I feel, the more I love.


The moment I love is the moment that I am alive.

~ Vincent Brown Jr.


If you think you are beaten, you are.

If you think you dare not, you don’t.

If you like to win but think you can’t,

It’s almost a cinch you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost.

For out in the world we find

Success begins with a fellow’s will.

It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you are out classed, you are.

You’ve got to think high to rise.

You’ve got to be sure of your-self before

You can ever win the prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go

To the stronger or faster man.

But sooner or later, the man who wins

Is the man who thinks he can.

					

		
		
	


	

				

			
						

				Ministering Through Music – Falu Phalu
			

								


				

			
~ Princess Asha Okojie




For more than eleven years now, Christian musician Falu Phalu has been an integral, innovative and uncompromising part of ministering through music. “As a young musician I wonder, where my music comes from?” says Falu Phalu. “I’ve become a bit of a historian of Jazz and World-music genre, listening to music from across the globe. With the gift God has placed in me and the view I have of Him as a pioneer of all things and creator I strive to be like Him in such ways by reforming the known and bringing familiar things together to make the music that I would like to see happen.” He started his musical education learning to play the drums at the young age of seven and picked up other instruments in his later teenage years : the Piano, Guitar, Upright bass, Djembe and other percussions. His native Nigerian formative years found him firmly rooted in many different musical traditions, making him very fond of jazz, soul, blues, Latin Putumayo, and classical music. Right now touring, ministering and performing as an artist with very unconventional musical deliverance, Falu Phalu is out to keep bringing the unusual that we all enjoy to God’s glory. Falu pays homage to God whose masterful works of creation inspired his development as one diverse music performer creating his own style of Acoustic, jazz influenced, pop hint music with Pan African rhythms and soulful singing sometimes fused with rap. Former member of a young Christian group known as O3 (Chosen Okonrende, Miss Ree, Falu Phalu) and a pioneer of Acoustic rap, Falu Phalu reaches back to the primary sources of jazz and soul music to create his personal and spiritual interpretations of classic performers of the past and present. For example, some of his influences are Jim Reeves, Louis Armstrong, Jimmy Needham, Mali Music, Sam Cooke, Jason Mraz and Esperanza Spalding. While exploring and expressing himself through music, Falu Phalu acknowledges his own key role striving to carry on these powerful legacies by creating a distinct style to hopefully touch lives.


Falu Phalu will be performing at ATVA Center, Houston, Texas 05/29/2011 @ 6pm-9.pm. For more information email: dreamweaversentertainment@yahoo.com

I wasn’t surprised when he gave his life to Christ in 1993 and was ordained a pastor in 1995, because he is God fearing, and a thoughtful person by nature, whom I looked up to him as a role model growing up.








					

		
		
	


	

				

			
						

				When Times Comes
			

								


				

			
When time comes, I’ll comfort you


Because God has not given us the spirit of fear but of a sound mind


When time comes, I’ll be your strength


For he will not give you more than you can endure


When time comes, I’ll be your shield


Trust in God and he will answer you


When time comes, I’ll be your inspiration


Be strong, my beloved and prayerful


When time comes, I’ll be your rock


Let not your heart be troubled


When time comes, I’ll reason with you


Remember, when calamity comes the wicked tremble and suffer


When time comes, I’ll encourage you


Even in death the righteous will find refuge that this world could not offer


When time comes, I’ll teach you


The one thing that binds us together is love


When time comes, I’ll nurture you


Your memory will forever remain


When time comes, I’ll lead you


And I’m thankful for the  unconditional love you gave


When time comes, I’ll be with you


And guard you through hills and mountains of life


When time comes I will carry you


And be at peace knowing that you fought the good fight of faith

				Love Remains Constant
			

								


				

			
The  feeling of love remains constant, always growing. Sometimes new love  can be  the most exciting, like meeting that special someone or having a  baby, your mind processes them over and over again. When old love fades, you  may have drown in your quest for career, money, family, even happiness.   Always, love yourself first, unselfishly! And take some time off, it will allow love to rain in your life again. Otherwise, it wasn’t meant to be.

				The Right Kind of Love?
			

								


				

			
When one finds the right kind of love, it’s a beautiful experience. Love is the foundation of life and the bed rock of romance. Love is so passionate, yet it’s a force to recon with. Love is the engine that fuels our very soul. Love is all that truly matters because it’s never a missed opportunity, if you’ve missed it once, it will eventually find you when you least expect. ~ Princess Asha
