love and death battle

love conquers all

(3/8/13) I found myself swirling in deaths eyes When I heard your voice in a far distant cry “Do not leave me; do not go away, I need you Beside me, I need you to stay” The current as strong as it pulled me down But to your love – I was earth bound. There is a story that you and I must write Of how love grew wings, and then took to flight. Battling the under currents that would pull me in They say with death you cannot wi...

searching for a dream

follow your dream

(3/7/13) Searching for a dream that had become undone Searching for a dream that I knew would never come Searching for that dream in my later years No more perseverance, just a lot of fears. Time is now against me – no longer will it bend Time is against me – it’s no longer my companion or my friend. This dream that I had will be a memory in my past This dream that I had – gone away too fast. Why do we fail to strive for...

Merry Go Round of Love

Love is in the air

First you must take away the sun, the stars, and the moon above Then you could take away my love. Take away the rivers, the streams, and everything in between So that my love cannot be seen. Take away the birds in the skies, for they carry my love on high Or take away their voices that sing, of how you became my everything. For I am in you and you are in me- this is the way that love was meant to be. Every heart beat that...

Child Called Jesus

Preaching child

Child called JESUS (2/11/13) Blood, sweat, and tears he would shed On the path that lay ahead. Imagine a child preaching the word of GOD When even the adults had found it hard. Can you picture him walking into town? And his followers sitting on the ground Listening to what he had to say Their hands clasped together as they prayed. Can you picture him in your mind? Telling his mother that he is fine And not to worry, not t...

black female warriors

a nation joining together

(2/7/13) She was my black female warrior and she stood proud and tall And upon her shoulders her silk hair did fall A spear in one hand and an Axe in the other No one would mess with her, not even her brother. The strength of a lion searching for prey She would not let anything stand in her way. She knew where she lived – it was a jungle out there But she was strong in spirit and did not care. She is the black warrior and...

midnight dream

where dreams of hope are found

midnight dream I awoke from a midnight dream, where love, hope , and faith, was the only thing seen where people gathered as a people under one god, one world and children sang the praises of god above explaining about peace and love. where all you saw was their spirits rising high into the sky. showing us all reason and whys. ... where the elderly walked hand in hand giving thanks for all they can as some of their memori...

a house is not a home

while reaching for your goals you turn your back on everyone

(1/22/13) a house is not a home- but just a place to rest your head a house is not a home- when your heart and soul feels dead. you go to that empty house with no one to greet you at the door and with all the riches that you have-" you still feel poor". riches don't buy happiness or fills that empty heart it just makes you feel worse as it tears you apart. you look around at the people who have so much less than you but t...

sandy hook and gun laws

political view re: assault weapons

(1/18/13) gone are the mom and pop stores that I once knew candy stores , malt shops, newspaper and magazine stands too. life was so much simpler then, you knew your neighbors and had a lot of friends. schools were for learning, and where kids could go to play now you don't see that on any given day. teachers and adults were respected and a sense of pride in the air "nowadays no one seems to care". they are trying to pass...
