Best Decisions Poems
Decisions DecisionsI stare at this lonely blank page of white
Never knowing exactly just what to write
Do I pen something happy or something quite sad
Show forth some laughter or show that I'm mad
Maybe show them the Creator and all that He gives
Or show them the darkness where...

Decide-
The time to arrive,
Keep the right from the left;
Begin from begin,
….and never regret
Decide-
The time to depart,
Don’t look right or look left;
End at the end,
….and never regret

DecisionsI expected a lot from you
Because I saw potential
I saw the angel
Where they saw the devil
I saw the sun's rays
Where they saw dark ways
Now I must pay
For my ignorant say
In the world today
Things just change
You’ll see my name
Or feel my pain
I saw the...

Decisions
Recall the straight and well-planned path of youth
mapped out so clear to lead us through life’s maze?
Though times I wandered off in prankish craze,
the road was there to find again in truth
when pangs of guilt nagged like an aching tooth.
I'd walk it once again, my...

Final Days- Decisions 2-25-02Mom is becoming very tired.
She has trouble remembering
The meds Pop takes—and when.
A lot of good it does to remember.
We have found pills all over
Where he cheeks them and
Blows them around the room.
He is bitter and asks,” Why

And keeps us living on this tight tether.

And through the misty haze of life

Decisions of LoveGermany post World War II,
torn, impoverished.
Ruled by Marshal Law,
imposed by the victorious.
Occupational forces walk
the rubble streets.
Civilians cower
in fear,
in hunger,
uncertainty.
A farm boy, Ohio bred,
cook in the US Army.
Young, handsome,
veteran to his country’s cause.
Viewed the hunger daily,
with sympathetic eye.
Spirited surplus loaves
to a fraulein in the night.
Young, attractive,
veteran...

Wrong DecisionsSometimes we make wrong decisions,
And then in attempting it's hiding.
A web we weave with much precision,
With no thought of daily abiding;
But once traversing that slippery slope,
And we've cast God's spirit into recess.
He doesn't give up but renders hope,
And forgiveness for days lived in excess.
We can't...

DecisionsAn unholy pink plus sign on the stick,
Oh think of what her admirers will say!
Contemplating ideas till she's sick.
When he finds out, will they still be okay?
Does she pay the price? Can she even dare?
Will she allow it to see the first day?
Terminate it...

Hard DecisionsPeople find tough decisions hard to make
But each involving choice has its reward
That supersedes the price of the sacrifice,-
A deserved prize that the soft cannot afford.
A lot of will is required to oppose
The urges that entertain the body,
The thrills that tempt the frail soul
That...

The Right Road TakenI hear a voice call out to me
through whispers in the wind at night.
It haunts my soul and sends a plea
for love to shine its brilliant light.
Within my dreams my spirit seeks
to find the source of this request.
To share...
