Choices

WHEN I AWAKE
FROM MY NIGHTS SLEEP
I CHOOSE TO SMILE
FROWN OR CREEP
I CHOOSE MY BREAKFAST
WHAT SHALL I EAT
BACON, EGGS OR CHEESY GRITS
MAYBE JUST OATMEAL MADE OF WHOLE WHEAT
I CHOOSE MY CLOTHES
AND WHAT SHOES TO WEAR
NOT THAT IT MATTERS
CAUSE I ONLY OWN ONE PAIR
SHOULD I DRIVE IN THE FAST LANE
OR JUST GO REAL SLOW
LOCK THE TOP LOCK
OR JUST SHUT THE FRONT DOOR
EVERY MINUTE OF OUR LIFE
WE MAKE SOME KIND OF CHOICE
WHICH REPRESENT OURSELVES
IN SPIRIT AND VOICE
THROUGHOUT OUR LIVES
A BILLION CHOICES WE WILL MAKE
SOME WILL SHOW US AS TRUE
SOME WILL SHOW US AS FAKE
THE CHOICES WE MAKE
CAN BE GOOD OR BAD
SO STAND BY YOUR CHOICE
AND NEVER BE SAD
BECAUSE IT’S NOT ABOUT OUR CHOICES
BUT THE LESSONS WE LEARN
BECAUSE LIFE IS A TEST
FROM THE DAY WE ARE BORN
STAND BY YOUR CHOICES
AND DON’T STOP TO REFLECT
BECAUSE AS FAR AS I KNOW
ONLY GOD IS PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NO MATTER HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT YOUR CHOICES IN LIFE, ALWAYS BE PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE.
THERE IS ONLY ONE OF YOU IN THIS WORLD, WHICH MAKES YOU SPECIAL!!!!!!!!!!!

Animals On the Ark

Two lions in a pen
Upon Noah's ark
Wondering what the future holds
What adventure they must embark
A female and a male
Lying side by side
Thankful to the Almighty
Of all the world's lions
They were the chosen two
Now they will be the only ones
When GOD's holy plan is through

Beside the lion's pen
Two bears lay their head
On a fresh layer of hay
Where Noah made their bed
Waiting for the rain to stop
So the new world they can see
Walk along wooded paths
And scratch up against a tree

Replenish the Earth
Is what they were told
And pass down this  story
To your cubs when you grow old
Forty days and forty nights
The rain did come down
Until the glorious day
Outside there was no sound
The time had finally come
To walk upon the Earth
Replenish our species
Give the world it's rebirth

My Love

As I looked upon her face
Beauty she did hold
Capturing my soul
Divineness of an angel
Everyday loving her more
Forever she will have my love
Greater is my heart beat
Happier is my soul
In love with an angel
Just happy she loves me.
