FORESIGHT

Use your Tears
Where
The Flowers
Grow Most

Use your Heart
Where
The Pain is Most

Use your Cares
Where
Love is Not

Use your Smile
Where
Children Frown

Use your Hopes
Where
Dreams are Real

Use your Kindness
Where
Hatred is Bred

Use your Patience
Where
Understanding is Needed

Use your Wisdom
Where
Ignorance is Spoken

Use Yourself
Where
Love needs Seeding

Use your Faith
Where
God is Served.

If I Used A Cup Of Tea
Would You Soften Up For Me

If I Used Care

If I Used Flower

If I Used Starch
Would You Stiffen Up On Me

If I Used Gluten
Would You Stick Me On The Wall

If I Used Butter
Would You Fall Away From Me

If I Used Sugar
Would You Sweeten Up At All

If I Used Water
Would You Feel Any Softer

If I Used Yeast
Would You Raise Me To The Ceiling

If I Used Salt
Would That Make You All The More

If I Used Pepper
Would You Sneeze Me To Beyond

God Bless You
Thank You I am Here Already

If I Used Eggs
Would You Scramble Me Instead

What A Mix That Would Be

If I feel the rain

I'll know a child washed my face

I'll show them God to better see

If I see a child that does not hope

I'll give them love to keep the faith

If I see a child reach for help

I'll extend my hand to open the way

If I see a child that does not hurt

I'll give them my heart

If I see a child talk to me

I'll hope that I can understand

For it may be me.

If I see
A tear, a heart, a soul, for me
What do I have if there's no hurt?

A hope that dwindles with each flow
A falling star touched down to earth
A wish not made

Don't Use The Bible
To Make A Child Conform

Patience and Care.

God Will Do The Rest

If They Say His Prayers At Night
Say, Them in The Morning
All Throughout Their Life

He Will Be There With Them

To Guide Them Through The Night
When They Wake in The Morning
They Can See God's Own Light

Knowing He Was There

Watching Them in Life
For They Said Their Prayers
From Morning, Noon and Night.

Guided By God Steered By Love

Cared By Understanding
Patience, When You Teach.

Tears Will Make it Easier

If Your Heart Becomes The Ship
You Can Sail On A Tear
A Tear That Cried To God.

He Has Given You A Heart
You Will Have To Love To Meet.

God Will Be Your Guide
If You Take Him In Your Heart.

ON A SHOESTRING

I cannot
get to Heaven,

On a Shoestring
and a prayer

It will
take heart and a tear

My
soul to get me there

It will help
if I am good

It will be better

If
God takes me there.

A THOUGHT!

Pennies
I can pinch

Not
my way to Heaven

I
would be
Taxed too much

Trying
to pay
the other guy

Hell
it cost more
than I made

April 15,
is now a treat

Hell
the taxes
are way too high.

you count your sense

Dollars

A safe return
is what you'll win

You Keep

Past mistakes,
are always there

Right cannot,
erase the wrong

Wrong can make it,

Try right, you can see,
what is wrong

Yesterday is
clearer now

Today
a sight much better

FUTURE WAR

Future war is mans answer
to modern times

He justifies death
by saying there's no end

He continues to blunder
through all his decisions

His answers is what's one more?

He found his end
when he left understanding aside

picked up hatred
to go along for the ride

He nestles in iniquities
that keeps him from his heart

He knows there is a beginning
he's afraid from the start

For a club in the hand is an ending
if all hold the same

Lets strike
at all that is misunderstood

clean our heart

Lets keep our difference
not if it keeps us apart

remember who we are
we'll know we are one

One end can be our hope,
one end can end our dream

One time will have to see,
one heart can be the key.

society,

Building
til he finds
himself interned

He
built it to last
yet
he is not
here to see

What
did he leave?
Not chaos!

For
it would ruin
what he planned

A monolithic
society
that has risen
to decay

The center
of all civilizations,

Must
have
the peoples hearts

For
then all will be civil,

From
the center to the heart

No civic center
can ever come together

If it is
a building
without a heart

For
it will find itself
in ruins

God's Most Precious Jewels Are Crystallized Tears
By Barbara Johnson
see related

THE JEWELS OF NATURE
HER TREASURED TEARS.
TO FEED THE LAND
THROUGHOUT THE YEARS.
GIVING US BLESSINGS
EACH DAY SHE IS HERE.



No Diamond
Can cut it.

Nor Shine
against
Its Brilliance.

Nor Polish it
To reflect
Its Beauty.

Only a Heart
Can hold
This Jewel.

Only Care,
Can keep it
From Decay..

It is more
Precious,
Than Gold

Purer than,
The purest Jewels.

One Tear Drop
is worth,
A million Hearts.

Cannot be bought
or measured..

One Drop
Can Hold
A Lifetime of wealth.


For when it Falls
It Shows it all
It's Clear to see
and reflects
Its Heart.

Its Facet
is more Brilliant
Than Diamonds..

The Heart
will Crack it open
To show all its jewels..

A THOUGHT!

One Chest
To hold
A wealth of Life
A Tear in a Heart.

One Chest
To hold
A Heart for Life
A Tear
That carried
Care to Love.

One Chest
To Treasure all your Life
A Tear,
I gave to God..

Dedicated To
My Sister Rose Arnita

A Poeatreeman

If I have one
Jewel in Life
Let it be my Tear.

If I have one
Jewel to give
Let it be I Cared.

If I have one Tear
Let me give it
To the World..

A TEAR SHATTERED
BY SORROW
WILL SHOW ITS JEWELS
A TEAR LOVE HOLDS
WILL SHINE
ITS BRILLIANCE
A TEAR GOD HOLDS
WILL KNOW
THE JOY OF HEAVEN.

DRONE CONTROL
[OBAMATOODRONE] [DRONES2] [DRONEUSA]




DRONE CONTROL

OBAMA
WANTS GUN CONTROL.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN

DRONE CONTROL ?

GOVERNMENT
HAS ITS FINGER ON THE TRIGGER.

READY TO FIRER
ON ITS OWN PEOPLE

WHERE IS OUR CONSTITUTION ?

TARGETED BY THE DRONE
TO KILL OUR CONSTITUTION.

POEATREEMAN

A GOVERNMENT
WHO RULES BY THE GUN

WILL FIND ITSELF
SERVING NO ONE.


FALSE SECURITY

MAN CANNOT CONTROL THE GUN

NOR PROTECT THE SCHOOLS
WITH THE GUN.

HIS MIND SET IS ON WAR
HOW CAN HE CONTROL ANYONE ?

A KNIFE IS WIELDED
BY MAN.

IT TAKES HIS HAND TO KILL MAN.

THE WEAPON IS MAN
FOR DEATH IS IN HIS HAND.

ALL IN GOD'S TIME; THE GOLDEN MOMENTS; THE MOMENTS OF LOVE
THE ONLY JEWELS I FOUND. ARE THE TEARS I SHARED WITH LIFE
MY TREASURE MAY NOT BE GOLD. MY TEARS ARE ALL I CAN HOLD
MY WEALTH IS LOVE UNTOLD. BLESSED TO SHARE UNTIL I GO.

ALL IN GOD'S TIME

TIME

I am Never
Late.

I am Always
On Time.

I am Set
By God's Hand.

To Wind Eternally.


One Twist!

I Passed
The Sun and Moon
Today.


I will Return!

To Start
Tomorrow
Once more..

Nevermore!
Will I Pass
Yesterdays Shores.

To See the Sun
Or Sunset Dying..

THE GOLDEN MOMENTS

There's a
Time to be Born

A Time to Cry

A Time to open
up your Eyes

A Time to see
Earths Blue Skies

A Time to Love
and Love your God

A Time to Feel
and Wake your Heart

For
God
has Given you a Start.

There's a
Time to Grow

and do your part

A Time to Learn
and Struggle Hard

A Time to Find
What's Right or Wrong

A Time to Face
The Truth of all

A Time to Feel
what Pain is called

A Time to Love
when Love will Call.

There's a
Time to Change

When Seasons Fall

A Time to Think
and Reflect it all

A Time for Hope
when Spirits fall

A Time for God
when all is Lost

A Time to Touch
when Teardrops fall

A Time to Smile
and Bear it all.

There's a
Time for Darkness

When Winter Falls

A Time for Life
to End it all

A Time for Answers
when Death has Called

A Time for Silence
and Prayer for all

A Time to be Judged
for what is Wrong

A Time to Part
for God has Called.

THE MOMENTS OF LOVE

The Moments of Love,
are When we're Born

When our Parents,
Take us Home

To Teach us,
What we Ought, To Know

Raising us ,
To be Loving too

For When,
we are Wrong

They Try To Teach us,
What is Right

Showing us,
They Cared

Even When They Scold us,
it is For, Our Own Good

For They Took The Time,
To Show us

How much,
They Really Love

When They Take us,
By The Hand

Leading us Through
our Darkest Fears

They Hold us,
in Their Hands

All The Times,
we Talked

All The Times,
They Listened

They said
How, much They Cared

Even When,
we're Old Enough

They Keep us,
in Their Love

For all The Moments,
They Spend with us
All we've, Been Through
They Think of us,
Through all The Years
Want To Follow, us Through..

Guide us ,
With a Loving Hand

To Keep us,
Straight and True...



THE MOMENTS OF LOVE

The Moments of Love,
Begin With you

When I Find,
my Special Love

To Light my Heart,
Bringing Hope,
To Love

For I Waited my Years,
in Search of you

To Have
This Moment, With you

All The Times,
I am With you

All The Years,
I Thought of you

Will Be Our Monument,
To Love

For it Took
The Years,
To Build
These, Tears

All, The Pains of Love

For I Love you More,
With all I Feel

Where Would I Be
Without you Love?



THE MOMENTS OF LOVE

The Moments of Love,
are With a Friend

When we Shared,
a Talk or Two

Helping,
each Other out

When we're not,
Feeling Good

Listening
To all, Our Troubles

When we Don't Know,
What To Do

For Our Friends ,
are always There

When They Know ,
That Something is Wrong

Trying
To, Make it Easier

If we're Feeling,
Awful Blue

They are Our,
Special People

We Love Them,
Like we Do

For There's no Time,
When you Have, a Friend

They Won't, Come To you...



THE MOMENTS OF LOVE

The Moments of Love,
are With all People

Showing Them,
you Love

For we
Share Our Lives,

All The Things,
God Has Made, Above

All The Things,
He Gave To us

Most of all,
Our Heart

To Love,
Feel,
each Others, Pain

Through all
The Moments, in Our Life

For all Our Pains
Can Be Love

If we, Really Care

Even With, The Pain,

There is,
a Love we Feel

For God
Has Given, us a Chance

When He Gave
His Son, For Love...

Dedicated To Life, Love, Friends
Especially To Parents
For Without God's Help
We Would not Be Here.

TRIBUTE TO ROSA PARK GOD I AM FREE: Date of death: October 24, 2005

[CHAINS]

TRIBUTE TO ROSA PARK GOD I AM FREE




THE SPIRIT OF FREEDOM

I Once
Stood Proud
On The Steps
Of Freedom.

While
The Flag
Was Being Raised

I Heard
The Anthem
Being Played

As I Stood
Upon The Steps

I
Hoped
All Country's

Would
Be Free

The Goal I Want,
Is not For Me

All Who Long
To Be Free

The Banner
I Hold
Is Earth's Own Soul

For
We Are One
Who Breathe Free

Let
The World
Breathe With Me

Then
We Can
All Breathe Free.

Dedicated To Freedom

All Who Seek,
The Golden Wings

To Soar
Through Heaven,
Upon The Wind.

Let
No Shackles
Be Imposed

Then
My Bonds
Will Be
Not Broken

I
Can Set
Freedom High

Where
It Will Take
To The Sky

Heaven!
Is Open
For The Ride

I
Can Fly
Free And High

Bound
By Heaven's
Openness

Feeling
Free
For
My Spirit's High

Soaring
Upwards
Through The Stars

Bound
By Heaven's
Open Sky.

A Poeatreeman

It Is Not
The Steps
To Bronze

Or The Steps
To Silver

Not
Even Gold

It Is The Steps
To The Soul

That Cries
For Freedom

Let
My Spirit
Not Be Chained

I Will Fly
Upon The Clouds

Free
As God
Would Have Me Now.
