Best Protect Poems
I lost my whole family
So I took in a neighbor
I have paid, sold, washed, shopped, cleaned, and done for this neighbor more than anyone in his life has
His own children won't call him,
but I do
His ex wife is dating his old friend
I continue to encourage him
He is lost in the meta verse
One day he'll tell people about me like he tells me about others
All of the good people he Met in life are all memories now
and I reminded him one day you'll explain how you had a beautiful person who BEGGED to be your sister.
Showed you more love than your own kids
but because she is a BLACK WOMAN
she means nothing- you'll never call her your sister
you will never protect her like family.
You will remember her for cursing when she's mad
No matter how much she does you will never protect her from men'
because our men are so scared and weak in character.
I deserve better and will never beg to be anyone's family again.
He is to provide the emotional, financial, spiritual,
The mental health needs for all,
Provide for the physical health of his family,
Regardless of how big or how small,
Also to protect her self esteem and worth,
Protect her values to live by,
Protect against any threats to her life,
Protect from a broken down cry.
Then lead from the front without a whine,
Lead life's game toward a win,
A win for everyone to own their own life
Own their fulfillment within.
And, finally, to teach how to approach life,
Like a confident successful man,
Showing his family how to live a life,
Being the best family man that he can.
Release me from reality
This brand new world of tragedy
That I can see
But rather fight the beast of immortality
Wait don't you see
Let Jesus be for he's the one that fights for me
I talk to god to hide my mind from time to time to save me
I beg of thee O great father
Just take me to your palace please
Forsaken me and take of me what need it be to change these things
If nothing happens shelter me
Protect me with your legacy
And let me see the way that I can change this world of tragedy

Your rod is not for signs my brother...
Stop looking for red seas to divide...
It should be the trophy of your bride...
That other sister need not to bother...
The pie between your thigh is priceless...
serving it cheaply to mark a moment
may lead to a lifetime of tearful torment...
Lose not your worth, Your royal badness.
Rash rodents seek sweet holes to plunder...
Let them not mess your milky mountains...
Some pies are pools from filthy fountains...
Let them put your heart and soul asunder...
I really believe that safe sex is sweet...
it makes real relationships romantic...
yet it does not make marriage realistic...
Safe hearts reduce stray dogs on the street.
No sex is really safe outside marriage...
some lovers often turn to lousy losers...
cheaters were one loyal skirt chasers...
Sex cannot save slaves from bondage
"The pretty rose has thorns to keep her safe." Quote By Poet
Who will keep me safe like thorns on a rose?
Only skin to protect my feelings.
A crystal-clear picture!
The embodiment of courage!
An unsung Warrior, vigorously protecting uprooted,
heart-broken kin, and many shelterless,
After a devastating partition of the homeland!
A man in his prime, giving up
dreams of comfort, luxury, indulgence,
Embraces a life of unimaginable hardships,
a life of never-ending toil,
So others feel safe, after a harrowing experience!
A life of everyday struggle for survival,
A life of torturous self-deprivation,
a life of agonizing separation -
From own loved ones,
so others live with theirs!
I remember the powerful hands,
which symbolized strength, offering a refuge,
I remember the devotion and dedication,
the tenderest care, the soulful empathy!
I remember the determined voice which symbolized
assurance, calming fearful souls.
Partition of a homeland - an unforeseen,
traumatic, curse for millions of sufferers,
Surviving with bare minimum, in an
unknown land, for an unpredictable future!
Leaving behind all cherished memories,
precious and prized possessions.
To me, One man symbolized -
how to climb uphill
Carrying a formidable weight,
on the steepest mountain,
And reach the summit
with sheer determination and indomitable spirit!
He is My Father!

Winner In Courage - Premier Poetry Contest

As Hedgehog-type cactus in bloom,
With claret-cup desert perfume;
Red-orange petals
On top of nettles-
I guard with my sharp, thorny, broom.
I'm hardy, resistant to clime
In weather where sunshine is prime.
Yet, still thrive in cold
When nightfalls unfold;
A mainstay for mundane, sublime.
My flower is tender and smooth
As velvety surfaces soothe.
My buds, I protect
With me, they connect-
And nurturing them, they improve.
Yet, thorns are my standby defense;
Protecting my blossoms- intense.
My keen spears await
To keep safe our fate-
And predators- anxious and tense!

Premiere Contest: The Flower, The Thorn, Or Both
Sponsor: Chantelle Anne Cooke
Theme: "You are the flower, the thorn, or both."
When a black man has a knee pressed against his throat
police brutality has no known antidote.
He can't breathe; cut no slack.
Complaining he was choking, they ignored his plea,
and one cop kept on pressing his weight on that knee.
Both hands cuffed in the back.
People watched in horror as his life got snuffed out;
all they could do for George Floyd was stand there and shout.
He's died for being black.
An angelic being,
helping to guide and protect us.
Seen by some but mostly unseen.
They can ring bells,
and sing in the wind.
Even be heard in a soft whisper.
Looking like a fluffy cloud,
wearing a white flowing gown.
Wearing wings and a pretty halo.
Have not seen them,
but have seen the effects from them.
Have written about them.
I’ll protect u till I die
You are the loving spirit of me
You are the flow of my exciting life
I love you so much that I will never
Let you down
Protect u till the day I die
Death is a simple word to me
Because when u open your brilliant eyes
It’s the world that smiles to me
You give me the strength by loving me
Ill never hurt you no matter what
No wonder if the world cries to me
I’ll love you till the day I die
My hear t is nothing compared to you
Because you’re the one that makes it pump
P.lz forgive me for what I did
It’s a crime I’ll never do
You‘re the flower of my soul
You’re the bounding heart of me
I’ll protect you till I die
It’s an honor to make u happy
It’s my love that bounds inside
Like the sun that comes out bright
I’ll protect you till the day I die
I will always protect you.
I will be your shield,
Your force field..
I would take a bullet for you,
I would take a knife in the heart,
If I knew I could protect you.
I would die for you.
If you were in danger.
I would come to your rescue.
If you were falling,
I would fall with you,
To save you, my love...
I would save you in a heart beat,
Because I care about you,
My dear friend.
Always remember,
That I will save you,
That I love you,
And I will protect you, always...
~God,Please Protect The Children~
(Star of David)
God
Bless all
The children
You know that they
Really do need You
The children are getting abused everywhere
Some children got no one that really cares
And some have no one to save them
From anyone wants to hurt them
That's why I ask you each day
Please protect them from everything
Don't let the children suffer anymore
I ask too much but know you can do it
Because You really care for each and all
They belong to You
Forever in
Your kingdom
I know
It

Protect our children from AIDS..........
My heart is paining me
when I see AIDS patient
My eyes are hurting me
when I see them suffering
Is AIDS God's punishment for
the people who went against nature love?
God has created a man and a woman
and he said a man for a woman
God has shown us the beauty of love
and he has taught us the meaning of the love
He wants us to be faithful to our love
Today, the world turned in to dark
The value of the love has been lost
The value of the faith has been lost
This misuse of nature love
angrily spreading AIDS everywhere
Our innocent children are living
in the world of AIDS
Let us fight against this deadly virus AIDS
and save our children and our nation

Unprovoked attacks
Death screams from the hearts of the innocent
A child's last breath
Lies in your arms
Raise your weapon
For the sickness f****ing your mind
Protect and serve?
F*** that, let's massacre them all
Let's burn and pillage
This family's home and make them watch
Piss in this man's hands
And spit at his feet
Let bullets rain on his chest
So his children see
Protect and serve?
Intimidate and rape
They fear your "help"
And comply with tears in their eyes
And a gun to their temple
Dirt on their knees, in a pool of their father's blood
Protect and serve?
I think not.
*About a news report I recently saw, about U.S. soldiers killing innocent civilians for
sport. (This has been going on since there has ever been wars, it's not a new issue.) They
blamed it on being in a drug-induced state of mind, and on seeing disturbing images of
warfare. We debated in my class whether or not this type of murder can be justified. I
argued strongly and loudly that NO traumatization or drugged mind is a just reason to
murder and torture innocent people. The U.S. military is here to PROTECT and SERVE all
people. Does this sound like protection to you?
Autumn leaves and melancholy
The city park an Oasis for a lovers stroll
As the cold nights invade the city lights
Park benches, the hotels for the homeless
A vagrant inebriated man, withered
Drunk and destitute, no home to go
He lies listless, snoring on the park bench
Ragged clothes and a tattered life
Wake UP Wake UP
Shoved by the Police in the dead of night
You must move on old man
Or we shall issue you a court summons
Ah but where shall I go? he boldly demands
This is of no concern of ours old drunk
You must vacate this park now
We have no time for old drunk fools
The old man asks, and who pray tell are you?
I am the police, and your nightmare, if you don’t vacate now
Oh Police? Not officers of the peace? Here to serve and protect?
And who pray tell are you serving and protecting tonight?
Do not talk back old man
Worse things than a summons may befall upon you
Now move on you stinky drunk
As the story goes, the old man moved on, drunk and broken
The next day, no better for the wear
The old man rose, to begin another beggar’s day
Voices inside tormented him
Wounds from long ago
Today, he proclaimed time to collect his just rewards
His teeth ached, his belly hurt
He bought a gun, from the toy store
All he could afford
Off he went to the City Bank
Time for a withdrawal
Hand me all your cash he demanded
The teller whispered
Old man we all know you
You can not think to get away?
Why you barely stumbled your way in here
I doubt you can make it to your getaway bus?
- concern and compassion in her voice
He replied all proud
None the less hand me your cash
My plan is sound, you pretty lass
Fear not I mean no harm to you sweetie
At the door, those very same Police
Yelled drop your weapon
And so he did
As they pushed him violently to the ground
Sitting in the back seat, he smiled
Finally justice will be served
The Officer scolded him
You drunk, you will be locked away now you scum
40 years before, the irony of life was to be painted
The old drunk saved the life of a fellow soldier
Who had a son, whom became a police officer
Irony is the sadness that shall sink many a heavy heart
Now the old man, with 10 years in prison
Finally his country paid his dues
This old war vet, got his 3 square meals
His teeth all fixed and healthcare for an ailing heart
God bless those who truly serve and protect
