Two Thousand Years LaterI am over 2000 years old, and I am still honored today People still call me as they kneel down to pray. I have not changed in all that time I can still cure the sick, the lame, the blind. Faith can go a very long way, and I will listen when you pray. When you think that the Devils got a hold on you I’ll be there, I know just what to do. Everyone has a destiny that they must fulfill It is in the mas...

All the Christmas stories the children are learning As the Christmas candle is burning. The stories are being told by grandparents and parents alike Sitting by the candle light. Oh so many stories that must be told Stories that never gets old. Stories of different places and unfamiliar faces Like stories of Uncle Scrooge and how the people s kindness he abused And how he changed his ways, and the story lives on till this...

Do not let growing up in the streets define you as a person? You are older now and don’t need to talk the street talk and slangs. Educate yourself to what you can be, not what you was. I do not want to be defined as a street thug or a ghetto rat But as a person who has learned to talk properly and has Left the streets to the streets. Because I do not have a college degree does not mean That I am an illiterate; it just mea...

(10/3/14) It was the first thing put on GODS list So why do we question if angels exist? They are his soldiers the guardians of earth They have been here since humanities birth, And since the world began giving GOD a helping hand. Like everything in life it is a chain of command That all of us should understand. Not all who perish get their wings You had to accomplish certain things Trying to keep the commandments of GOD...

(9/23/14) Born deaf and not a sound to be heard Sign language was her only words Longing to hear any sound at all, even the bouncing of a ball To know what it would be like to hear a robin sing And the sounds of early spring. She learned to read lips and could feel the vibrations of musical sounds. The sensitivity in her fingers had gotten so good That the music she understood. She found that the guitar vibrations she cou...

Praying HandsI had a dream with my lord CHRIST He touched my head, not once but twice. I felt my body jump up in bed I saw the nail holes in his hands that bled. I felt the power of his healing hands He showed it to me so I could understand. With faith in our hearts he will heal And his hands you will feel. I awoke that morning with the spirit inside Those praying hands I had to find. I found a figurine of his hands And p...

She is as fine as vintage wine and as sweet as a Georgia peach She was picked at the moment of perfection under the Watchful eye and God's direction. Then she was sent here to earth, given to me by natural birth. He said: this is my gift to you -she will be with you your whole life through She is more precious than diamonds and gold And your love for her will never grow old and will not tarnish or fade For her heart is li...

For your family and friends now come the burdens and tears Not knowing you had those fears. How do you think your family and friends will survive? Not knowing your life was on the line.

I had sensed the presence of someone near I looked around and there was no one there Then the feeling got stronger by the minute As I frantically looked around- then looked to the ground. There at my feet was the presence that I felt Of a puppy with cuts and welts. I could see the abuse as the tears rolled down my eyes As I started to scream and cry. “Who can abuse an animal this way? The one who did this by the law must...

It was the early 60’s where rock and roll was Taking over the land, and ELVIS was on tour with his band. Where rock and roll was stories being told And the teen life was starting to unfold. We had race riots in the southern states And black rights were up for debate. An era of KENNEDY and KING where peaceful Solutions they would try to bring. Both assassinated at a young age Because they tried to bring some change. An Era...

I was so tired and stressed and needed a vacation so badly So I went home and held you in my arms, and looked into your eyes And floated into the depths of your soul Losing all thoughts and control. Your soul as endless as the universe and as beautiful as can be And my heart was set free. As I floated in the depths of your soul I saw the brightness of every star, the sun, the moon I saw the depths of the ocean and felt ev...

I saw her on a cold winter night Her beauty made my heart take to flight The loveliest woman my eyes had ever seen She was my beauty – she was my queen. Her eyes shone like the reflection off of the water Blinding , hypnotic, putting me in a trance All of this at first glance. Her hair flowing in the wind Like the beauty of an eagles wings in flight Covering the sun from my sight. She is a rose blooming in the winter snow...

Although he did not know it It was the rise and fall of this poet. Words are a universal language all by itself It could take you to heaven, or bring you down to hell. Words are like rivers, streams and oceans Moving freely with emotion. The slightest ripple is a creation Of love, joy, sadness and devastation. Everyone is different from each other Opening poets mind- making him wonder. Now his mind has become like a glaci...

It does not matter!!! For every soldier living or dead Is a hero in my head. It doesn’t matter whether they was on the front lines Fighting the war- or in the back lines working at S-4 (supplies) They all contributed in some way To keep our freedom safe from day to day. The army, air force, navy, marines In our battles they are seen. Men, women, both alike fighting to keep us safe at night. They joined the military so tha...
