Best Rasing Poems
Earth's
magnificent
bounties
reaching
across
continents,
Igniting
natural
growth.
Erasing
all
relevance
to
humanity.
* We should embrace earth, for it can thrive without us, whereas we are not so self sufficient.

L ive like there's no tomorrow
I magine where life leads
V isiting those who sorrow
E rasing all their needs
L amenting those who've lost their way
A sking to hold their hand
U ntil their night becomes their day
G uiding them to stand
H old strong to your convictions
L et love be your guiding light
O ffer no one contradictions
V alue what is right
E ven if it seems too tough, keep it in your sight
H-ighly shine when it is your time,
O-pen your mind to success;
P-ure delight will be brought,
E-rasing the blue sadness.
S-hine when it is your time,
A-llow your heart to wait;
N-ever put others down
T-o make yourself great.
O-n Sunday February eleventh, there is mountain to climb;
S-eek the summit of triumph, shine when it is your time.
Y-our birth brings happiness,
Z-est, cheer and laughter;
Z-ealous dawn wants to shine
A-fter the dusk is over.
L-ong night and cold chill
H-ave turned into warm day;
Y-es, the rain disappears,
N-ew morn breaks,
E-rasing the gray.
L-onely evening shadow
I-s beginning to fade;
M-arch sixteenth is fine,
O-ffering delight that's
S-elf-made.
Some of the little things
That tried to brake us apart
Should of made us strong in our hearts
Because you are the love of my life
I love being your wife
I treasure all our moments together
It is the funny things
That you do, makes me smile
And life is good with you
That our love can last awhile
(Chorus)
Between you and me
We can make our love right
Between you and me
And we can love each other
Between you and me
We can last forever
When we started out
Others and they had there doubts
They said we wouldn't make it
Between you and me
We can work out the mistakes
Together we can work it out
Together we can make it
Threw all the hard times, rough roads
We've climbed over mountians
Carried some heavey loads
Together we are rasing a family
And my sisters to
And if we have arguments
Between you and me
Realize we all make mistakes
But it takes us to make it right
( Repeat chours)
Some of the little things
That tried to brake us apart
Should of made us strong in our hearts
Because you are the love of my life
I love being your wife
I treasure all our moments together
It is the funny things
That you do makes me smile
And life is good with you
That our love can last awhile
Between you and me

Its important to look to Greater skies when your world seems Dark. Why choose bones and flesh over a Spirit. Feelings, Emotions, love, lives within So why isn't that more important. Hoping for better in one if the worst things that ever came into your life. Whip my Emotions With the raft of your verbal tounge. Lie to paint me into the person. You turned me into. Opening the Doors to my Infidelity. And abuse my love by pushing me Away. But still u treat me like im nothing. Replacement is a rebound word. But an over taker is permanent. What u treat as Dust. Is actually a treasure to the eyes of a man who Deserves me. Hide me in the shadows as we go places. Touch my body like u would if you dont care. Im not ashamed. I lived in my mistakes of finding u. I drowned in my tears of sorrow that floated me close to u. With skin so rich and honored i am priceless. You cant put a price on my love, my devotion, my heart cause u wil never find another like me that indored the shots you put in my chest. Rasing my heart and dropping my feelings like u would of a woman u take forgranted. I am priceless. What u overlook is a person thats well defined as Gold to the eyes of a Man Who wants me. Trully who is in dieing need of a queen like me. Who wont make me feel as miserable as the the monster i see in your eyrs evertime i look at you. Your a lesson something that im being taught to never want Again. To u im just a Woman but to me i will Always be priceless.

'Please never let me go'
She felt the burning need to
grab him by the hand nd hold
on tight
She dd it anyway..
Not caring anymore about her
sudden vulnerability ..
Ignoring the opening of her
wounds ..
"Please hold me" she said
Her voice birthing heavy sobs
as she tried to plead with him
His arm already drenched in
tears he jus looked at her..
Finali seeing her fears ..
"Please never let me go"
Like a fetus abt to be aborted
She held on to dear life
A million thots rasing thru her
mind
A shadow of doubt wrapping
itself around her delicate
frame
Like a cold blanket
It made her shiver ..
Shiver hysterically as she
begged him
"Please never let me"
She whimpered like a
motherless child in the arms of
a stranger
Yearning for a saving grace ..
A litte miracle .. Something to
eat away the pain
"Please never let me go"
Her grip loosened as she
spoke..
Her brown eyes now turning
grey..
" Never"
Was all he could say ...
Like full force cancer her body
finally gave in ...
Who would have thot -
''Thoughts'' could consume a
person like that ..
"Please don't leave me"
HE said sobbing ..
As he held her limp body in his
hands..
Its a sad story..
All every1 cud do was say
"sorry"

When what you thought was truth
was really lies
when all the affection turned into
distance
When love turned into hate
When rasing your child was left up
to one of you to do
When a complete stranger knows
more about your love life than you
When his harsh words became
harsh violence against your flesh
When your aching heart decided to
stop working
When he realizes a little too late that
He hasnt been acting like a man
When he realizes he lost the best
thing in his life and he will never get
it back
S-eptember eleventh day
H-as made you feel better;
E-rasing the things of the past,
R-apture replaces the bummer.
Y-es, September eleventh day has brought a thousand thrill;
L-aughter of the big event removes the night cold chill.
M-ake September eleventh day
E-liminate the dark shadow;
N-ew morn starts to break,
D-awn denies the sorrow.
E-arly light causes much joy, as the eventide is walking out;
Z-one of flame is burning, bringing warmth without a doubt.
A-s September eleventh day
N-ullifies the coal black cloud;
S-un has begun to shine,
E-mitting his rays so proud.
L-et your birthday become
M-eaningful in your way;
O-pen your life to enjoy September eleventh day.

German resistance well-noted within prison encampment
Rambunctious brood neath an underground network
Erasing traces under so-called watchful eyes
Allied soldiers, hundreds to gain freedom
Together with a few arduous laborers
Escapee repeater joins the group
Smart-aleck, a wisenheimer
Cyclist, a real daredevil
Against all the odds
Prisoners escaped
Except for a few

S-tandard neatness is applied,
E-rasing the morbid mystery;
A-trocious ailment is avoided,
N-astiness is eerie enemy.
G-ruesome grime is washed away,
R-eliable alcohol stops the menace;
E-nhanced hygiene kills the germs,
E-mploying standard
N-eatness.
