Who freed all the slaves by the truth that he told
A leader who conquered the world in his way
And brought lasting peace that we honor today 

He led with a vision that all should be...

Premium Member I Stood Up To That Woman
This story was relayed to me......

Was there magic in those rainbow lights...
Shining on that bar room floor
'Cause last night something turned one beer
Into seven more!

Well...I got home just a little late
And I couldn't find my keys
I thought it was mighty nice of her.....
To open the...

Pin Up Girl
i am a woman

sometimes i feel
i'm too thin
too tall
too plain
and too fat
i am a woman

will you still love me
the next day
and the next
when i'm old 
when i'm frail?
i am a woman
where's my sister in this game
and when i...

Second Chance At Love Or Just Forget It
Can this only be the begining of love,
He was perfect in my eyes,
 before he wanted me to change,
whether it was my body or my looks,
 or even the style of my clothes,
 I was too young, 
to realize that he only wanted me 
for...

Premium Member Earth's Revenge
Collaboration with Marcello Eans

Why are you all bound and determined to destroy me?
What have I done to you that makes you hate me so much?
I’ve given you life and provided for you families.
You’ve done nothing in return but ruin what you’ve touched.

Timber – and my...

The Prince's Kiss
There once lived a handsome prince 
Who one day was a frog 
But a kiss from a beautiful princess 
Made his home no more a log 

Now this prince was a playboy 
And he liked his women fast 
Every relationship he ever had 
Was destined...

Jonah
The lost and found 
all walk this earth.
We trudge along
till death from birth.

At the age of eighteen
the Lord found me
wallowing around
in my misery.

I asked for His help
and He showed me His love.
But when things got better
I suddenly had enough.

I was bound and determined
to do it...

I didn’t take long to think of a PLAN
To win the heart of beautiful JoAnn
Her very presence was magnetic for sure
My courting and poetry helped to lure her!
My mission was clear for she was the one

Secret Raindrops
I'm tired. I'm so tired. Growing up, I loved that special kind of lovely loneliness when you sit in your car, it's raining and it dances on the roof and you smile like you've got a secret. 
Now, I live in a world where bombs...

Dishes
Ok one poem,
Then to work for me.
I felt guilty this morning,
Then I broke down,
 And washed my dishes.
I thought I would drown.
The plate wasn’t so bad,
Nor was the spoon,
But the pan lid and pan,
Sung a different tune.
I got in there and did it,
I was bound...

For Ricky
You were a strong person.
You overcame so much.
You were bound and determined
to overcome this one.
Your body may not have been strong enough, 
But your soul was, and still is.
We will miss you terribly,
You will probably miss us.
But you are no longer suffering, 
and I'm glad...

Premium Member Sulking and Sculling
There once was a guy who crafted a poem;
it’s possible that you might even know him.
It seems that he had a way with the verse;
he wasn’t the best, but he wasn’t the worst.
They’d come in a flurry, the bad and the good;
he’d try to transcribe...

Ramblin woman
So what was it you wanted?
I need you to be honest,
I'm tired of all the pouting,
So I'm getting geared up and going out scouting.
In bound and determined,
To stop all this damn hurtin.
Stand up straight, send this thinking out on break.
Join my emotions on strike, walk...
