A Life Destroyed By Acid
The news today was morbid
Disturbing and so tragic
A life destroyed by acid
The injustice made me sick.
Her face and body scarred
And her will to live had died
Such cruelty then marred
Her life, the end... Suicide.

Gems
Pride always demands
Kindness always gives
Love understands
And Mercy forgives
Courage moves on
Patience endures
Faith carries on
While Hope secures
Purity is best
Dignity is noble
Peace gives rest
That God is able.

Hate Destroys
Hate destroys
The one that births it
It robs one of joy
and peace, forfeit.
Hate destroys
A chance to forgive
Its claws employs
The heart to grieve.
Hate destroys
The people around
Creates a ploy
As conflict abounds.

Love Her
If in life, you find
The one you cannot live without -
Love Her.
For life is not life if you should lose her.
If the one you found
Has found her life in you -
Love her.
For she will be your joy until your life is over.

Burden Bearer
Shared Joy is double joy,
It keeps on multiplying.
Shared Sorrow is half a sorrow
In time will be decreasing.
Shared Hope is flaming hope
Ignites our inspiration
Shared prayer is sure answer
For God's our Burden Bearer.

In Worship
In worship my heart always sees,
The God of Love,
My God of Peace.
His Spirit fills me in embrace
With endless joy
That does not cease.
In worship God we meet
For in our Praise
With us He dwells
In fellowship so sweet.

The Map
Find Wisdom's call
His Word is gold
There find that all
Life's treasures told.
Comfort, Healing,
His Peace and Love,
With your reading
Touch God above.
For Truth sets free
Lamp to your feet!
The Way to see
Your God, to meet!

Class (Clerihew)
Dame Dorothy Parker
Sashays with wit and humour,
But Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
The murders he did foil.

Memories of You
Like a song that lingers on
A distinct melody of love
Haunts me so until the dawn
Fleeting like the flight of doves.
A soothing breeze that goes
So swiftly through the trees
The heart, alone it knows
The pain seems not to ease.
