Another Place
another place, another time, another dream left behind
another mountain i must climb.
i'll move the earth to make you mine.
i'll take the stars from the sky
and place them before your very eyes.
i'll part the waters if i must
just so i can gain your trust.
all these things i will do for you
if to my heart you'll be true
how easily you captured my heart
took it-then tore it apart.
so i stand with heart in hand
just so that you'll understand
that my heart is given to you
it's a heart that will always be true.
you tore up my heart because you

Half Mass
american soldiers were slaughtered
on a military base today.
by an arab american officer
who held everyone at bay.
and for these departed soldiers
all of america will pray.
but a question was put to me
and i was'nt sure just what to say.
if they are flying the american flag
at half mass for those who died today
what about the ones who've given their lives
to protect the american way?
why should we fly the flag at half mass
just for those who died at FORT HOOD.
it should be for all soldiers
and they would argue if they could.

Granddaughters Tears
I am a young girl living in this world
Surrounded by family and friends.
But I am lonely and hurting inside
And my loneliness I try to hide.
I love music and I love to dance
I will do it at every chance.
While I am dancing I feel so free
Like no one can touch me.
I feel the music deep in my soul
Moving my feet and taking control.
I need someone to hold me
And tell me they understand
What I am going thru.
Is that so hard to do?
How many girls are going thru the same
And do their lives ever change?

He Came As A Man
JESUS came to me when I called his name
He didn’t come seeking fortune or fame.
He came because his father sent him to save mankind
To cure the sick, give sight to the blind.
To build hope and faith where there was none
So he sent his beloved son.
His son was given to the ones who
Would love him the best, and put
JOSEPH through a rigorous test.
He told JOSEPH that MARY would
Be the one to carry his glorious son
And JOSEPH said: “thy will be done.”
JESUS was then born in a manger
In a town full of strangers.
He grew and became a very strong man
And he preached throughout the land.
His words, his wisdom, his sacrifice

Horn Blowing Day
Today was a horn blowing day
Maybe it was the temperature
That made their mind stray.
Their frustrations are rising high
It seems they want traffic to fly.
These are the rage warriors with their road rage
Because of this, many a life will change.
When they run over a pedestrian
Or crash into another car
Because their rage had gone too far.
They all claim to be running late
That they have an important date
Maybe it’s to meet the undertaker
Before they go to meet their maker.
Then all the “ I’m sorriest” come out
Of that there is no doubt.
But will the “I’m sorry” bring back the

Women- Listen To The Heart Of Man
Women- listen to the heart of man
Not all of us are macho men
But most of us will defend you to the end.
Not all men are into martial arts, weight lifting and such
For some it is too much.
We are men of every day stance, all we ask
Is to love us, and give us a chance.
We feel pain the same as you
And our tears we’ll hide from you.
We can love you more than you’ll ever know
And it’s something that we will show.
We will love you like no other man can
We will walk with you hand in hand.
You are mans foundation, that is why
GOD made such a beautiful creation.
Different in every aspect and every way
And he knew in our hearts you would stay.

Love Oh Love
(08/29/11)
Love oh love - why do you tease me so
When you know - I have no place to go.
I ‘ve traveled the paths of pain for so long
that this must be the place that I belong.
This road is so lonely and oh so dim
That is the reason my heart gives in.
Anger and pain is all I see
Why can’t love come and rescue me?
What must I do to have these chains
Taken from my heart
Even scrooge got a new start.
Love oh love - you avoid me like a plague
To a point that I can no longer see
What is ahead of me.

Your Heart
Let me live and thrive in your heart
Let your hearts blood pulsate through my veins
For with your blood, I’ll never be the same.
Each pulse will take me to places I’ve never been before
And it will last forever more.
I will go thru twists and curves
And with each curve my love will burn.
And as the body needs the blood to survive
I need your heart around each side.
Surround me with all the love that you have to give
So that my soul can survive and live.
As I travel through each vein and artery
I feel your beauty flowing inside of me.
How can anyone s heart be so clean and pure?
Like the oceans beating against the shores.
Bringing everything to the surface
For all the world to see.
This is the love that you have given me.

The Questions
In a dream GOD asked me:
What does life mean to you?
I came up with the answer that
Most would normally say and do.
“ THE FIVE SENSES”
But that’s not true!
Living and enjoying the beauties
That GOD has provided to us.
The sun, the stars, the oceans, the moon
The grass, the trees,
And his lips as he kisses us
In a soft gentle breeze.
The love that he has given us
To share with all the rest
The beauties inside of us
Which is his very best.
The strength inside of us to smile

Snow Flakes
as i look out of my window i see snow flakes
blowing all around landing gently on the ground.
the falling flakes set my heart all aglow.
as it makes a blanket of pure white snow.
creating such a beautiful sight.
the snow just like a heart can be gentle to the touch
yet! cold as ice.
if you plan on playing with it you better think twice.
the heart is the most complex part of the human body
it controls the entire anatomy.
so as the snow trickles down and creates a picture of purity.
and its coldness touches my bones
in my heart grows the warmth of a fire
with all of its desire.
to melt the coldness in your heart
just so you could see.
even the coldest of hearts can belong to me.
