Poems from heaven

poems from heaven come to me in my sleep
i awake in the morning and i start to weep.
for in my dreams i see the loved ones who had past
they give me these words which will forever last

you are my child which i gave to the world at birth
i did not know at the time- if and what
your life would be worth.
but i knew in my heart that there was a purpose in your life
now i am in a better existence looking down upon you
and the lord has shown me what you have to do..
you are here to spread the word to all the other poets.
that they could reach more people than they
could ever dare to imagine.

open up your hearts and minds, and let
your loved ones souls with yours entwine.
listen to what they have to say
for with their words, this world
will be a better place.

Firefly Love Bug

the firefly which is a beetle
leaves my heart torn and feeble.

it came into my life with its bright light.
when i was at my darkest peak
and my heart was mighty weak.

it radiated such a glow
that i did'nt know which way to go.
so i followed this lovely light
and it took me on a perilous flight.

it said that it could find love
even in the dark
and for me to give it my heart.

so i entrusted to it the one thing
that i had left, and it would give me
all its best.

The Dark Road

I was walking down a lonely dark road
Not a light to be seen, not a light was shone.
Then I heard a voice say: if you choose
To follow me, then a light you will see.

I decided to follow the voice that I heard
For in my darkness he gave me his word.
Never in my life could I see, how the walk
With the lord could change me.

The light that he told me I would see
Changed my life drastically.
So many secrets that I tried to hide
That throughout my life I lied.
Lies have a way of coming back at you
Then you don’t know what to do.

Lies that at the time, you found small
Later on will come back tall.
Since you had continued to add to that lie

Angels Tears

(5/15/12)

The angels are crying from what they see
The destruction of GODS creations by humanity.
The raindrops that come down to cleanse the earth
Are the angels teardrops releasing their hurt.

If you was to taste the rain and find
that salty taste, it was because it
just ran down their face.
This is the bitter sweet times in life
When we don't make any sacrifice.

Yet when you see a sun shower - it is
their happy tears that bring out the flowers.
Their tears of joy when everything is going right
And humanity is making a sacrifice.

They're opening their eyes to what technology
Is doing to the rain forests and the destruction

Bed Of Flowers

i found myself in a bed of flowers
looking up towards the sky
i laid there inhaling the sweet
fragrances of the flowers
and thinking of you and i.

the fragrances tickled my nostrils
and the memories flooded back in
thinking of all the joys we had
and all the things we did.

every feature of your face
the color of your eyes
the way your hair fell upon your shoulders
and how you could hypnotize.

i felt your arms around me
the tenderness of your embrace
your soft tender kisses
kissing my neck

The Uprising

throughout the world there is civil war and unrest.
peoples patience being put to the test.
how much more can they take
before it becomes much too late.

when will these countries open up their eyes
and listen to the peoples battle cry.
what will it take for these countries to see
that they need unity.

clean up your own home, before it's too late
and let the people gain your faith.

don't destroy all their dreams
show a spark of light, that can be seen.

feed the hungry and help the poor
listen to their voices and hear their shouts
this is what humanity should be about.

Torn And Tattered Heart

my heart is torn and tattered
it seems like nothing else matters
i gave my heart, soul, and mind
and thought it would last for a long time.

you find someone which you grow to love and
it gets deeper and higher than the stars above.
you feel that this love will forever last
but it becomes part of the past.
when you see this person change their points of view
but! not to satisfy you.

just to satisfy their blown egos and their conceit
and your love they could never meet.
and now your heart is a divided road with
nowheres to go.
you pick up the pieces of your torn heart
and look for another place to start.

this torn and tattered heart knows it must

Devil At My Door

when she was asleep in her bed
she heard a pounding in her head.
who can be knocking at this ungodly hour?
for in this house, the devil has no power.

when she heard a voice outside her door!

'open the door and i will give you riches and fame
if but once you call my name.'
hearing this voice outside her door ' she responded'

but! this is the house of the LORD, you see.
i will not open up for someone like thee.
you can not give me what i desire
and i will not follow you into the fire.
so leave my door- never to return ever more.

the devil responded:
but! i can give you all these things
and you don't have to kneel before me.

Save The Children

Save the children

Look around you and what do you see
Death, destruction, and misery.
It is not much that they ask
It is gods will and part of our task.
Save the children and let them be free
To live their lives as we.
Give them hope- don’t let them despair
Give them a helping hand and show them that we care.
As their elders we are supposed to teach them what’s right.
Give up your arms- give up the fight.
For when we are gone the problems will still be there
Affection and love is still very dear.
Save the children and let them see
That they no longer have to live in the worlds misery.
Hungry for food and hungry for love
The bird of peace is the snow white dove.
They are hiding in mountaintops and trembling with fear
Not seeing love and showing no tears.

Disguise

memories are sometimes disguised
so that we do not see
all The imperfections that lie in you and me.
The memories that are painful
can sometimes be our strengths
For if we take it by the horns
We can mold it and it will bend.
There are so many people that we meet
Along the way, some we turn our backs on
And some we allow to stay.
People are so defensive that it becomes
Easy to offend.
You say something jokingly, then you lose a friend.
We put our feelings in disguise so that no one
Can see, that we can cry like anyone else
but live in hypocrisy.
The disguises can be many and we
tend to hide our face, but when we look in the mirror
All that we can see, is the pain in our eyes
That brings back those memories.
