Created From Dust

Created from dust

Instilled with Divine Spirit

Magical creatures

We are unique, but the same

Born from the All Knowing Mind

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Man’s Intuition

Man’s intuition

Lost amongst modernity

Preferring book smarts

Wisdom comes in many forms

If you’re willing to listen

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Teach Me If You Must

Teach me if you must

Lessons like this are hard learned

Bloody and brutal

I expected nothing less

For having used my free will

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Thirst Stinging My Throat

Thirst stinging my throat;

Dust and grime choke me of air.

Breathing is labored.

Thirsting for an oasis

I will drink sand to survive.

 

Could this be blind faith,

Utopia found in sand;

Trusting you’ll be quenched?

Isn’t this what religions

Teach is the only path to God?

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

It’s Not About The Eggs

It’s not about the eggs

Candy or Easter bunny

But resurrection

Forgiveness is its meaning

For all of our mortal sins

Believing or not

Does not detract from longing

For eternal life

Something beyond this body

Into the realm of the spirit

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Look All Around You (Haiku)

Look all around you

Don’t you see the Master’s work

Artists perfection

.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Illness (Tanka)

Illness…religion

One thing brings out the other

Prayers for better health

Sickness shows the frailty

That only Heaven can cure

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Carrying the Instrument

Carrying the instrument of your own death

Jeering crowds spitting and taunting as you go

Forgive them Father for they know not what they do

Cried with sincerity for these misguided souls

Even in this ultimate humiliation

Your faith never faltered

And by that we have been saved

…How could you not love Him

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

 

Colossal Mistake

Colossal mistake

Of Biblical proportions

Unforgivable

Most vilified of mortals

Christ’s Judas Iscariot


~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

To Believe or Not

To believe or not

Is a question of one’s faith

As it’s always been.

We can never know for sure

Until we leave this body,

Whether their is more

Or if this is all there is.

So…what will it be?
