<br />
A mother and her son, walk down the street<br />
The son runs and jumps on a bug<br />
A mother smirks, what does it matter<br />
She gives her son a hug<br />
<br />
## A bug doesn't matter ##<br />
<br />
A husband is at the bar, making advances at a young girl<br />
My wife is at home, what she doesn't know won't hurt her<br />
Just having a little fun in life <br />
One little mistake, in a life that's just a blur<br />
<br />
## So what who cares ##<br />
<br />
A car salesman talks to a customer<br />
And he tells a little white lie, to sell a car<br />
You got to do what you got to do<br />
There isn't any harm, best deal by far<br />
<br />
## They had to by a car somewhere ##<br />
<br />
A young boy learns,value in life is based on size<br />
A cavalier husband, takes little care towards his wife's trust<br />
A salesman learns money is more important than honesty<br />
In truth, in life, there is only one must<br />
<br />
## Everything matters ##<br />

<br />
<br />
The simple things in life<br />
That most of us don't know we're doing<br />
A bee collecting pollen<br />
While we sit there viewing<br />
<br />
One day we take our last breath<br />
And we pass to the other side<br />
Those simple things that were doing<br />
Well we'll have to say goodbye<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
We don't really know what happens<br />
When that time comes to be<br />
All we know is those simple things<br />
We never more will see<br />
<br />
Take this time to think<br />
About the future of your life<br />
Are you in control<br />
Or does life control you, like a wind blown kite<br />
<br />
Part of knowing lasting peace<br />
That you feel inside<br />
Is having control of your life<br />
Before you reach the other side<br />
<br />
So don't waste a minute<br />
Look at the man in the mirror<br />
And tell him it's time to change his life<br />
To be a man to be revered<br />
<br />
Open up your soul<br />
And don't put up a fight<br />
For it is time for you<br />
To let GOD into your life<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
A feeling of appreciation as we wake every day<br />
With the unlimited things that we can do<br />
Places we can go, or what we say<br />
All because of freedom in what ever we choose<br />
<br />
But some places in the world that's not the case<br />
They suppress the written word<br />
They control what you say and do<br />
Of which of course is absurd<br />
<br />
Lets take this one step further<br />
And this I believe is the truth<br />
It doesn't matter where you live <br />
Or if you take a stand of being aloof<br />
<br />
They can take away your freedom<br />
They can tell you how and where to live<br />
They can stop you from reading, or writing, or speaking<br />
Except what they give<br />
<br />
But they can't take away your mind or beliefs<br />
Of that I'm sure<br />
Because what is deep down in your soul<br />
Well, that always remains pure<br />
<br />
They can not destroy your will<br />
Unless you give it away<br />
And for the rest of eternity<br />
In your mind and soul, free will, will be displayed<br />

<br />
<br />
I was watching an ant caring a leaf<br />
To it's nest somewhere in the ground<br />
Over and under blades of grass<br />
And rocks it would walk around<br />
<br />
The ant came to a pile of sticks<br />
A mountain it must of seemed<br />
It made an effort to climb the pile<br />
An unconquerable obstacle it deemed<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
But the ant continued to make attempts<br />
To finish it's quest<br />
This little insect knew not how to stop<br />
It would only give it's best<br />
<br />
In one of it's attempts, it fell and damaged it's leg<br />
But it still made attempts to climb<br />
It knew not fear and would not give up<br />
The ants quest was on it's mind<br />
<br />
We humans should learn a lesson hear<br />
In our quest in life<br />
When facing fears or obstacles<br />
To always stay the fight<br />
<br />
For if a tiny ant<br />
Can find the courage to fight<br />
Then we humans, with our beliefs and great knowledge<br />
Should be able to conquer life<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Millions of souls stream through the universe<br />
And surrounds the earth above<br />
They're with us constantly <br />
To rain on earth with love<br />
<br />
During our confusion with life<br />
Of what is the right way to live<br />
We have a tendency to loose focus<br />
Of what the good Lord so graciously gives<br />
<br />
GOD, gives us a choice<br />
Of which way we want to live<br />
He lets us decide<br />
If we want to take or give<br />
<br />
To many times we are concerned, only of us<br />
And not of what less fortunate people have<br />
We take, more than we give<br />
That tendency is very bad<br />
<br />
We must adhere to the karma of life<br />
And sow what we first reap<br />
This ancient Godly quest<br />
Is a sin if we do not keep<br />
<br />
So when you next receive a gift of love<br />
To help in time of need<br />
Remember this gift must be returned<br />
If you expect to be offered GOD's speed<br />

FOR UV<br />
<br />
<br />
On May 3rd. of this year<br />
University of Virginia Womens Lacrosse had a loss<br />
And it wasn't to another team<br />
It was a loss of a higher cost<br />
<br />
Yeardley Love a player on the team<br />
Lost her life that fateful day<br />
And all of the University's population was sadden<br />
That Yeardley past-away<br />
<br />
This past weekend they had a game<br />
In the NCAA plays off's <br />
And it was the womens mission<br />
To win for Yeardley at all cost<br />
<br />
The game was very close<br />
Right down to the very end<br />
But all the players summoned their courage<br />
And won the game to help them mend<br />
<br />
Quiet heroism we see in life<br />
Yeardley in death, became a notable personage<br />
But her memory will live forever <br />
And she will always be, part of the university's heritage<br />

<br />
<br />
Laying on the ground below<br />
And looking up, without a care<br />
Through the cluster of red maple leaves<br />
With blotches of pale blue sky in the air<br />
<br />
You loose yourself in the moment<br />
That GOD has provided just for you<br />
And all those worries of unpaid bills<br />
Simply seem to fade from view<br />
<br />
You know this time will not last<br />
For a responsible person has priorities<br />
But your Lord has given you time to rest<br />
Before you return to a life of proper proprieties<br />
<br />
For what is life if you can not enjoy<br />
The simple pleasures we sometimes ignore<br />
Till a kindred spirit of the past<br />
Begs us to take the time to implore<br />
<br />
At these times of solitude<br />
It is important to reflect<br />
And understand aspects of all of life<br />
The ability to look back in retrospect<br />

<br />
<br />
What on earth is lighter than air<br />
A wisp in the breeze<br />
That flutters with flair<br />
With personality that comes with ease<br />
<br />
A moment of thought<br />
Is lighter than air<br />
With energy brought<br />
It is offered with care<br />
<br />
A thought and air it's agreed<br />
Weigh the same<br />
But need to be freed<br />
From whence they came<br />
<br />
Unlike air a thought can be<br />
Complex and stressed and crazy<br />
Those things can be heavy indeed<br />
And leave you feeling hazy<br />
<br />
When there are thoughts of the heart<br />
Some thoughts drive you to a levy<br />
And you find from the very start<br />
That bad thoughts make a light heart heavy<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Deep down inside ourselves<br />
There is a well<br />
Filled with our hopes and dreams<br />
And stories our parents would tell<br />
It has a secret compartment<br />
That sometimes we don't see<br />
And inside lies a treasure<br />
An ancient memory key<br />
In times of distress or trouble<br />
We question are ability to cope<br />
If we'll have the answers <br />
Or have lost our ability to hope<br />
But something causes us to remember<br />
That way down deep inside<br />
The well of hopes and dreams<br />
And the key that we hide<br />
The key unlocks the door<br />
Where the ancients live<br />
We learn the answers we need<br />
That the ancients freely give <br />
So we learn a lesson<br />
Deep within the great romancer<br />
Lies the secret key<br />
To the door with all the answers<br />

<br />
<br />
This world with all its splendor<br />
In the near future will kneel and surrender<br />
A man of wisdom and a firth in the great sea of knowledge<br />
With a vigor this man lived<br />
And a thirst to give<br />
What he believed and felt through his toiledge<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
Many people live through their lives<br />
And work hard to make great strides<br />
For their love ones, who hold them in great revere<br />
The love ones have taken the position <br />
To carry on the tradition<br />
In their efforts of participating with their peers<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
This man should be proud of what he gave<br />
As he toiled and slaved<br />
To make a difference, even if only to a few<br />
For the few that he touched<br />
They learned much<br />
And pass on his wisdom through what they do <br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
With a journey, it has a beginning and an end<br />
But it's important in that time we spend<br />
Discovering what is to be our destination<br />
But over time we see<br />
It always winds up to be <br />
Not the same as our beginning expectation<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
I know this man is quick to prescribe<br />
To all, love life and enjoy the ride<br />
Life is never what you expect, it's more<br />
It's full of joy and grief<br />
And even in times of disbelief<br />
You knew, through its knowledge, life you would always adore<br />

<br />
<br />
Sometimes in choosing words, you get the urge<br />
When describing a particular look<br />
To give some flair and put on the air<br />
The curl of the lip is the hook<br />
<br />
With a picture of you it's easy to view<br />
The subtle hint of the character you show<br />
Children often display in an innocent way<br />
Their hopes that they would like you to know<br />
<br />
<br />
Children like to give you the notion, that you put in motion<br />
What you want and they secretly hoped<br />
So you accomplish your feat, in which the child dupe you in belief<br />
Just who is the child and who is the adult, in this poem I wrote<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Are you beyond happiness and sorrow?<br />
Is your life, your day a series of peaks and borrows.<br />
One minute you’re ecstatic, on top of the world.<br />
Next minute you’re depress, into a little ball you curl.<br />
<br />
If you are up and down, even a little, you probably feel nothings wrong.<br />
The swings between such extremes have been with you so long.<br />
But you don’t need the ups and downs, to make you feel alive.<br />
Until you’re able to control your emotions, know answer can be derived.<br />
<br />
In fact the ups you call happiness are not happiness in any way.<br />
But a false interpretation of happiness, this sense of happiness you display.<br />
Real happiness is not the result of rising out of depression.<br />
Real happiness is stable, constant, and not dependent on interpretation. <br />
<br />
Sometimes we call it contentment or serenity or joy.<br />
Not excitement, that leads to depression, happiness just is, a child with a toy. <br />
It’s hard to imagine contentment after a life of highs and lows.<br />
Some people choose not to change and live with their woes.<br />
<br />
This is called addiction, a choice of just existence.<br />
To live life instinctively to the path of least resistance.<br />
The ups are dependent on the downs and of course that’s visa-versa.<br />
For real happiness don’t self-indulge, be compassionate, have purpose. <br />

Up late the other night<br />
Trying to think of something to write<br />
That might tickle your palate<br />
And from you receive a ballot<br />
Instead of leaving me feeling contrite<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
To often with writers<br />
Their expectations inside is the igniter<br />
In their exuberance to please<br />
They forgot why they write with such ease<br />
To make other peoples days feel brighter<br />
<br />
###<br />

So if I might offer a suggestion<br />
An important lesson<br />
With your character you will pay<br />

<br />
<br />
It's been two years since the death of her husband<br />
And it has been hard to get along <br />
Financially she has been struggling<br />
Everything is going wrong<br />
<br />
She has had to sell a lot of her keepsakes<br />
To help pay her bills<br />
There's great sorrow in selling things you love<br />
It has taken a great deal of her will<br />
<br />
But her greatest test had not yet come<br />
And she was going to have to make a decision<br />
Her financial woes carried on<br />
Her next step required spiritual vision<br />
<br />
She was going to sell her wedding and engagement rings<br />
Because she still had to pay some bills<br />
But when she got to the pawn shop<br />
She started to get exstreamly ill <br />
<br />
The pawn shop owner said he'd give a lot of cash<br />
But his vision of what the rings meant was sightless<br />
When the young wife came to her decision<br />
She decided the spirit of she and her husband's vows were to priceless<br />
<br />
She knew she could struggle along<br />
Until things started turning around<br />
But as far as those rings were concerned<br />
That was touching sacred ground<br />

<br />
<br />
She was like a pink rose in bloom<br />
As she drifted into the room<br />
She was totally unaware<br />
Of my alluring stare<br />
A glass of Chardonnay, she quickly consumed <br />
<br />
I walked over and offered my name<br />
Unassuming, I thought she do the same<br />
She was quick to decline<br />
Said I was wasting my time<br />
And she turned and left the way she came<br />
<br />
Well, she left me in scorn<br />
And feeling a little forlorn<br />
My dad would say, if you meddle<br />
Sniff a rose's pedals<br />
She always reminds you she has thorns<br />

<br />
<br />
One minute she's there<br />
Next minute she's gone<br />
How could a day that started so right<br />
Have ended so terribly wrong<br />
Married twenty years<br />
My friend, my wife, my love<br />
Now when I talk to her<br />
I will have to kneel and look above<br />
Life is so delicate <br />
So precious being who you were<br />
When the stress of life is over<br />
All that's left is remembering her<br />
Somehow that should be enough<br />
But it never is<br />
I want her back<br />
If only to have one more kiss<br />
So I go to bed<br />
Sleep to morning and rise<br />
I get up and walk aimlessly<br />
Till I meet my demise<br />
Once I was king I had it all<br />
I had a queen I loved<br />
Then in a second it happen<br />
Now she looks down from above<br />
My story is just one of thousands<br />
That travel the highways we drive<br />
The difference is that for a moment<br />
Their wife is still alive<br />

<br />
<br />
A Canadian girl Amy one night on the prowl<br />
Found some eggs of wild geese fowl<br />
Amy took the eggs home to hatch<br />
In the morning Amy inspected her catch<br />
The geese hatched and thought Amy was their mother, who knew<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
So Amy raised her brood<br />
She found each goose had their own separate mood<br />
The geese followed Amy everywhere<br />
Threw the barn, through meadows, even on the porch chair<br />
What was Amy going to do<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
Amy knew the geese had to fly south in the fall<br />
There had to be someone Amy could call<br />
So she called a wild game refuge in southern USA<br />
And here is what they had to say<br />
They're glad to have the geese as their southern refuge<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
Now, There was just a couple of other things<br />
How were they going to fly home in the spring<br />
And if we were going to discuss the travel after all<br />
How were the geese coming south in the fall<br />
But Amy had an idea or two<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
Amy's father made Ultralight airplanes from scratch<br />
Maybe he could make one for Amy and her catch<br />
Then when the geese flew south in the fall<br />
Amy could show them the way after all<br />
She found her quest to take care of her brood<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
Amy and the geese set off on their fight<br />
Flew across Lake Ontario and into the night<br />
She landed at sun-set and with pen and paper made that recording<br />
Got some sleep and set out in the morning<br />
Amy thought, there won't be any problems, she just knew<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
She flew across New York State, past New York City, to the coast<br />
Straight down to North Carolina Wild Life Refuge her host<br />
The geese made the trip with out any serious situations<br />
Amy thought the wild life refuge had a wonderful reputation<br />
She was proud of her brood they all came through<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
Amy worried, coming back would the geese blunder<br />
All through the winter she wondered<br />
But in April as a flock they all flew<br />
From the North Carolina Wild Life Refuge<br />
Right to Amy back porch which they all knew<br />

(The Dog Is Man's Best Friend)<br />
<br />
There you sit with that stoic stare<br />
What are you thinking in there<br />
Is it simply, how can I please<br />
Or are you thinking, know more of me<br />
Every day you're at my beck and call<br />
Ready to give your all<br />
Is what you want a simple plea<br />
To change both our thoughts to we<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
Together we will have more fun<br />
Running and playing in the sun<br />
And in a world that's complicated <br />
Two different species feel liberated<br />
Living life not worrying about knowing their place<br />
Or show social expectancy to save face<br />
Because we are quick to discover<br />
We in truth love each other<br />

( The Cat's Meow)<br />
<br />
Do you know I'm watching you in everything you do<br />
That everytime you make a move, I follow you<br />
You are my world, you are my life, your everything<br />
When I jump into your lap, I hope your heart will sing<br />
<br />
When you look at me we don't speak, but deep inside I know <br />
I sense the feeling of love, in your eyes I see the glow<br />
We two have a special bond, our lives thrive because of the other<br />
Sitting for hours with loving glances and no sounds ever uttered<br />

<br />
<br />
When your young you don't think of death as part of life.<br />
You know death's there down a windy road far out of sight.<br />
You're to busy, things to do and important people to know.<br />
Living the good life is tough, but you must keep up the show.<br />
<br />
When your young, you're so unsure, you don't know what to do.<br />
But life is complicated and stressful and all that stress is on you.<br />
You start to think, life's not working, there's got to be a better way.<br />
So you make adjustments and you start to have better days.<br />
<br />
And then I started thinking about something my father read.<br />
An ancient fable of Jacob's Ladder and here's what my father said.<br />
Jesus told Jacob about a ladder to heaven on angel wings.<br />
The ladder was lit by the brilliance of GOD's love while angel's sing.<br />
<br />
As I thought further, Jacob's Ladder starts at the beginning of life.<br />
The bottom of the ladder is dark and you climb into the light.<br />
The light is really knowledge and it gets brighter as you age.<br />
Jacob's Ladder and the light turns brilliant as life turns a page.<br />
<br />
So we continue to live our lives and do the best that we can do.<br />
To try and always do the right thing in life and to believe in you.<br />
Some people that read this poem might say it doesn't matter.<br />
In truth it matters, all through life you're Climbing Jacob's Ladder. <br />

<br />
<br />
Man's success is working in numbers<br />
Through achievements and blunders<br />
Man tries to achieve<br />
What he truly believes<br />
And puts doubters asunder<br />
Man can be selfish<br />
Wanting to keep<br />
Some sow and others don't reap<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Man strives for his constant perfection<br />
Guards against rebel insurrection<br />
To temper his greed<br />
And continue to lead<br />
With strait forward direction<br />
Constant believer in dreams<br />
With conviction through screams<br />
With freedom his biggest spiritual connection<br />
<br />
###<br />
<br />
Man continues his dominance on earth<br />
Adapts through changes in re-birth<br />
As man changes nature<br />
Through his errant behavior<br />
Trouble is it's worth<br />
Keep this in your mind<br />
Lately changes have been adverse<br />
Damnation is just a matter of time<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
The feelings of joy and sorrow<br />
Resonates through my soul<br />
The taste of love together<br />
That are gone from me forever<br />
So I sing with the birds of joy and sorrow <br />
Sing of hope for my tomorrows<br />
To hopefully find again what I once knew<br />
To fill my body through and through<br />
This is my quest my sole ambition<br />
Again to find love is my mission<br />
Until I find love I continue to borrow<br />
The songs from The Birds Of Joy and Sorrow<br />

<br />
<br />
A man and a woman have different wants and needs.<br />
Of deep primal feelings and ones society breeds.<br />
It is unreasonable to think that a life long friendship <br />
could be derived. With out sex or marriage between them,<br />
as a part of their lives. But such a friendship exist and <br />
has for years. A friendship of admiration, secret <br />
dreams and tears. The friendship that will last a lifetime<br />
to out live their peers. So lives the friendship of Tim and Lynn<br />
that all shall revere.<br />

<br />
<br />
Deep in the dark and blue<br />
Stealthy shadows slither through<br />
Monsters most never see<br />
What you don’t see won’t hurt you<br />
To a child a parent’s labored virtue<br />
Is now known to be false<br />
Because down in the deep of deeps<br />
A ghostly creature floats and seeks<br />
To leave prey without a pulse<br />
The behemoth in question<br />
To my recollection<br />
Only once has ever been seen<br />
The ghostly giant squid<br />
Savagely puts in its bid<br />
Architeuthis greatest legend of the sea<br />
So the journey continues in the abyss<br />
With more questions than answers to list<br />
Ghost of the dark and blue<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Wake up to life; turn your life into enough and more.<br />
Take your chaotic mind, give it order, leave it free to explore.<br />
Confusion becomes clarity, denial leaves, now truths your own.<br />
A stranger becomes a best friend, where you live becomes a home.<br />
<br />
It turns a simple meal into feast.<br />
Suddenly your pass makes sense, it gives you peace.<br />
It gives peace to your soul for today.<br />
Gives you vision for tomorrow, so you will see the way.<br />
<br />
Your appreciative soul takes advantage of every moment.<br />
Makes opportunities to right wrongs for atonement.<br />
It spreads kindness in other people’s thoughts.<br />
Over looks mistakes of others, the way God has taught.<br />
<br />
Gratitude inspires confidence and shows you too can be admired.<br />
It instills self-awareness and others notice your desire.<br />
Gratitude compliments people, that’s essential.<br />
So that everyone has a chance to reach their potential.<br />
<br />
