Papa Bird, the Old Wizard
One night a country bumpkin told his friends an incredible story about an old wizard named Papa Bird. He resided alone in the mountainous area of Westmoreland. The people of the district said that he was an obeah man, but he regarded himself as a scientist. Papa Bird was no ordinary wizard; his magic was real. Moreover, he had strong supernatural powers.
All the witches and wizards in the district feared him because they were charlatans. Papa bird’s house was on top of a hill, and every day he would sit on the verandah and look down in the valley. When people wanted to visit...

It’s quiet.
I mean, so quiet. So quiet you hear yourself think and you get lost in conversation with yourself. So quiet the second you hear anything you jump. But you don’t hear anything. The sun beats down silently, the lake is cool and flat as a mirror. I turn to my other side, laid up on a thick picnic blanket, red and white, on the low hill next to the house. A little house, brick, built before the town came. Before the road was there, before all the activity and movement. And away from the road you feel alone. Not in a bad way. Just alone. Alone and you know it’s only you in...

The Hornet and the Spider
in playground quiet
childhood swings
spinster sinister spinning
spreading lattice
marking the artflow
soul pneumatics
welcoming Spring
in dark corners
for palpable thing
black diamond
vampirical suspense
queen of the hunt
indomitable
definable
exquisite
mortifiable preying
in all her splendour
corpulent
crowned with obsidian
eyes incorporeal jewels
master-crafted her world
far from other realms
interweaving
interconnected
conduits
not a thread was left ...

Genesis 1.20 and 1.24 Reveal God's Modus Operandi
Genesis One, verses 20 and 24 POINT TO EVOLUTION as God's modus operandi.
It starts off with God bequeathing to Nature ("the waters..the earth") the ability
to create life ("bring forth the moving creature..the living creature..").
But not only is the original creating of life turned over to Nature,
the subsequent development of the species - speciation - is also turned over to Nature -
in the form of the very first original species or lifeforms.
For we read that way back in the beginning, God endowed each lifeform with the power to reproduce...

EVOLUTION is SACRED Because GOD Used It As His Tool For Creating the Great VARIETY of Species
EVOLUTION Is SACRED Because It Is Presented in GENESIS, Chapter 1, Verses 20 And 24, As The Tool GOD Used To Create All The Species.
According to Genesis One, God endows NATURE with the power to create ("bring forth") life. For God says, "Let the waters BRING FORTH the moving creature that has life..Let the earth BRING FORTH the living creatures.." But more to the point, God says, "Let them bring forth according to their kinds.." In other words God turns over to each species the work of creating life. Its called motherhood, of course. But my point here is that at the same time that...

Humble B. Bumble : 21. It's not meant to bee
Humble and BlondeBee’s latest date was at ‘Where it’s at.’
All their friends were there too, so it wasn’t that bad.
But by the end of the night, they realised there was no spark.
Sure enough, good friends they were and still are,
But there was no love, even when the two of them slow danced
And by the end of the night,
They each had the same doubts about the romance.
They arranged a date for the following day,
Because they both really wanted it to work.
They went for a fly and made their way to a pool, ...

Humble B. Bumble : 17. It will never bee
Humble knocked on the door to BlondeBee’s parents home
And her Mom answered the door.
Hi Mrs. Friendly, I’m here to see BlondeBee.
I’ll just give her a call.
BlondeBee, Humble’s here, are you nearly ready?
Just doing my hair Mom.
Take a seat Humble. Would you like some honey?
No thank you Mrs. Friendly, I’m all full up.
What are you two up to tonight?
Oh, we’re just going for a walk.

Humble B. Bumble : 42. Beedazzled
The hornets appeared on the horizon.
Zipper was on lookout with Tryin’ Flyon.
The two of them were in an argument
And didn’t see the hornet’s a-flying.
In fear Tryin’ stumbled back and hit a plant,
And all the water came raining down with a mighty splash.
Sound the alarm! I can’t, Tryin’!
My wings are soaked through, said Zipper, nearly crying.
The two of them ran and watched as above a squadron of hornets,
Crashed down with a thud!
What have we got here...

Humble B. Bumble : 41. All abuzz about a bee
The name’s Humble B. Bumble; welcome to my mall.
How do you do?
If there is anything that you need, I am sure we have it for you.
Need a fresh pot of honey to go with your food?
Not a problem, keep the bottle; I saved this one especially for you two.
Do you need to buy your honey something new?
Not a problem, all honey is good here, I can make honey too.
If you see something you like, I am sure we can find you a good price.
The sugar sure is nice; we just got this frozen stuff,
You won’t believe your eyes!...

Humble B. Bumble : 38. Bee Bee the bee
Hi everyone; this is Bee Bee.
The two of us are engaged, to bee married. (I’m so pleased!)
We think it’s time to settle down.
We think it’s time to start a family.
I have had my adventures
And somehow I managed to find myself a Queen.
She is so beeautiful!!!
Check out me;
She is so pretty
And me, with this face; it’s now full of smiles, I’m alive!
It’s time to join the rat race once more and build our own hive.
The reason I go to work is to provide for her;
Because seriously...

Humble B. Bumble : 37. It's good to bee home
Home at last; how I have missed you all.
It has been so long since I was here.
Many days have passed;
Has it really been a year,
Since we last set eyes upon each other?
Oh wonderful home…
Oh! Hello Queen Mother.
The Prince has returned to tell you of a future,
Where we leave this land and head to another.
I have found us a place to which we can migrate,
Where the sugar is plentiful…our new home awaits.
We must inform the others of our decision to depart.
Winter is...
