Souls Across The Universe

SOULS ACROSS THE UNIVERSE


Millions of souls stream through the universe
And surrounds the earth above
They're with us constantly
To rain on earth with love

During our confusion with life
Of what is the right way to live
We have a tendency to loose focus
Of what the good Lord so graciously gives

GOD, gives us a choice
Of which way we want to live
He lets us decide
If we want to take or give

To many times we are concerned, only of us
And not of what less fortunate people have
We take, more than we give
That tendency is very bad

We must adhere to the karma of life
And sow what we first reap
This ancient Godly quest
Is a sin if we do not keep

So when you next receive a gift of love
To help in time of need
Remember this gift must be returned
If you expect to be offered GOD's speed

1 Love For UV

1 LOVE
FOR UV


On May 3rd. of this year
University of Virginia Womens Lacrosse had a loss
And it wasn't to another team
It was a loss of a higher cost

Yeardley Love a player on the team
Lost her life that fateful day
And all of the University's population was sadden
That Yeardley past-away

This past weekend they had a game
In the NCAA plays off's
And it was the womens mission
To win for Yeardley at all cost

The game was very close
Right down to the very end
But all the players summoned their courage
And won the game to help them mend

Quiet heroism we see in life
Yeardley in death, became a notable personage
But her memory will live forever
And she will always be, part of the university's heritage

Retrospect

RETROSPECT


Laying on the ground below
And looking up, without a care
Through the cluster of red maple leaves
With blotches of pale blue sky in the air

You loose yourself in the moment
That GOD has provided just for you
And all those worries of unpaid bills
Simply seem to fade from view

You know this time will not last
For a responsible person has priorities
But your Lord has given you time to rest
Before you return to a life of proper proprieties

For what is life if you can not enjoy
The simple pleasures we sometimes ignore
Till a kindred spirit of the past
Begs us to take the time to implore

At these times of solitude
It is important to reflect
And understand aspects of all of life
The ability to look back in retrospect

Lighter Than Air

LIGHTER THAN AIR


What on earth is lighter than air
A wisp in the breeze
That flutters with flair
With personality that comes with ease

A moment of thought
Is lighter than air
With energy brought
It is offered with care

A thought and air it's agreed
Weigh the same
But need to be freed
From whence they came

Unlike air a thought can be
Complex and stressed and crazy
Those things can be heavy indeed
And leave you feeling hazy

When there are thoughts of the heart
Some thoughts drive you to a levy
And you find from the very start
That bad thoughts make a light heart heavy

The Well

THE WELL



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

Salutations

SALUTATI0NS


This world with all its splendor
In the near future will kneel and surrender
A man of wisdom and a firth in the great sea of knowledge
With a vigor this man lived
And a thirst to give
What he believed and felt through his toiledge

###

Many people live through their lives
And work hard to make great strides
For their love ones, who hold them in great revere
The love ones have taken the position
To carry on the tradition
In their efforts of participating with their peers

###

This man should be proud of what he gave
As he toiled and slaved
To make a difference, even if only to a few
For the few that he touched
They learned much
And pass on his wisdom through what they do

###

With a journey, it has a beginning and an end
But it's important in that time we spend
Discovering what is to be our destination
But over time we see
It always winds up to be
Not the same as our beginning expectation

###

I know this man is quick to prescribe
To all, love life and enjoy the ride
Life is never what you expect, it's more
It's full of joy and grief
And even in times of disbelief
You knew, through its knowledge, life you would always adore

The Curl Of Your Lips

THE CURL OF HER LIPS


Sometimes in choosing words, you get the urge
When describing a particular look
To give some flair and put on the air
The curl of the lip is the hook

With a picture of you it's easy to view
The subtle hint of the character you show
Children often display in an innocent way
Their hopes that they would like you to know


Children like to give you the notion, that you put in motion
What you want and they secretly hoped
So you accomplish your feat, in which the child dupe you in belief
Just who is the child and who is the adult, in this poem I wrote
