My Awesome God

(08/25/11)

GOD is so awesome- I must say
He gave me the answer to my problem
In just one day.

Then he gave me good news which
I was longing to hear.
That my new grand Childs heart is in repair.

I also found two nephews on the internet
And I can’t get over that yet.

We were shown that misfortunes
Usually come in threes.
But on this particular day
He just wanted to please.

So he put things in reverse
So that I can see- that not all misfortunes

The Lords Words

my words have been written for you to read
in my apostles i've planted the seeds..
read all the words they have to say
don't let anything make you sway.
for tommorrow may be your ' judgement day'.

i was sent to the world by my father
but! not to make man's life any harder.
so that the world could confide in me
and their souls i could set free.

centuries from now this world will be a mess
and your beliefs will then be put to the test.
search your hearts and search your minds
for my words will last untill the end of time.

in the bible my life and words will be found
you just have to turn and look around.
people are turning to me every day
and on their knees they begin to pray.

Dying Soldiers Wish

(8/18/12)

We were soldiers young and brave
Now we lay here in our grave
Does anyone remember me when I lived
And that I had so much to give.

I wanted all the things that everyone else did
But my thoughts I had hid.
Knowing that I was going to war
To a far and distant shore.

I gave my life defending this land
I'm sure you understand that when duty calls
You are there to give freedom a helping hand.

Can you remember the color of my eyes or my hair
Do you remember the moments that we shared.
Do you remember the look and words unspoken
Of how our love would never be broken.

Oyster Of My Heart

the love in my heart had a strange but long start.
just like an oyster starts off with a grain of sand
and others follow to give a helping hand.
so is the love that i have for you.

that grain of sand found a home where it could start to grow
and slowly it created one of the most beautiful treasures
that the world would get to know.
because it started out very slow.

the home that it was created in was a very hard shell
where it was protected until it grew big and strong
for it knew where it belonged.

and as it was opened by fellow man
there is where it took it's stand.
man opened it slowly with a knife
to protect what he knew he could find
a beauty so precius and so divine.

Rewarding Time

the most rewarding time in life
is when i could sit and write
i write about things that were and things that can be
if i let my mind run free
and this is what came to me.

looking for someone who really cares
deceit and corruption is every where
it can be found from the highest
hill to the lowest ground.
at every turn-just look around.

when you look at the news every day
another politician has gone astray
they go with people who can line their pockets
and when they're hooked
they pull out their eyesockets.

families are torn apart
and thats just the start.

In My Mind

'in my mind' i have climbed the highest mountain
i have swam the deepest sea.
i have done everything for you to get close to me.

in my mind
there is peace throughout the world
joy in the hearts of every boy and girl.
famine no longer exists
people living in total bliss.

people at work and at play
enjoying the beauties of the day.
people greeting each other in a friendly manner
raising a schools loving banner.

people stopping to help one another
and calling each other sister and brother.
weapons of destruction are in the past
peace and love 'is what lasts.'

A Mothers Prayer On Mothers Day

i found myself searching this mothers day.
of things that i wanted to say.
there was so many faces that i saw in my house of worship
that radiated such a glow.
that the thoughts in me started to flow.

what must they be thinking on this glorious day
and their children in their minds as
they started to pray.

are they praying like MOTHER MARY who s son
was put on the cross.
that their suffering will
be short, and not a complete loss.

what will my child do in this world
of trouble and turmoil?
will they play follow the leader
although he is bad!
or will they stretch out a helping hand?

Can We

Can we write of centuries past of things
That we do not know, and can we recall
Things we read which puts our hearts aglow.

Can we feel Romeos words as he called to Juliet.
And can we feel Juliet s heart as she looked down
From her balcony.
when she felt her heart bursting
Wanting to be free.

Can we see Sampson and Delilah as
She cut off his hair.
Did she do it out of spite
Or did she really care.

Can we see Helen of troy s reaction
When they climbed out of the wooden horse
Did she truly love him, and did she feel remorse.

Can we feel MARY S pain as she had

When Love Grows

When love has just begun, and two hearts beat as one
And when two minds connect to each other
You will protect one another.

When love grows so strong that there is
Nothing else in view
That is when I get closer to you.

When all I see is you in my mind
And I long to be with you till the ends of time
And when your eyes take me on a journey
That I've never been before
And you seem to open up all closed doors
That is when I love you even more.

When you can look beyond all my faults
And see a light come shining thru
That is when I thank GOD that I have you.

When we can walk hand in hand

You Find Yourself Drowning

You find yourself drowning-water going into your nose and mouth.
You find yourself drowning of that you have no doubt.
Your arms are flaring wildly as you struggle to reach the top
You know you must continue- you know you can not stop.

You know you’ve been in this position
Many times before, but you always seem to
Make it to the far distant shore.
You take a deep breathe as your instinct
For survival comes into play.
You know you have to fight to live another day.

You reach land and you know a new battle
Will begin- peer pressure, life s pressures
How are you going to win?

You ask yourself: how can this be?
You can drown on land- not just in the sea?
Every time you’ve survived
Who do you think was there
