crave attention, gift empty touch

She Was Saved
You read in the papers you watch on the news
Coalition soldiers amidst as the killing accrues
In these theatres of war we lose many lives
In these wars of man only death thrives
But every so often there's a turn for the good
A life is saved they couldn't...

Saved Me With Your LoveSaved me with your love
When this crazy world, just don't make sense,
And the daggers wound without pretense,
You came running in my defense,
and saved me with your love
As the cool breeze rushes through the trees,
and whispers rustle through the leaves,
Your hushed serenity enraptures me,
and I can't...

Seven Things Saved From the Burning House2
My head’n’eck will be saved,
it is where everything else exists,
not just my hair, though that's also okay.
3, 4
My arms, right (3) and left (4),
I'll need them for heavy lifting,
and probably some other stuff too.
5, 6
My legs, neither has a keener number,
they love to run
and I...

Saved By SugarcaneRain is brewing;
black clouds hang over the Cockpit Country.
Them rainclouds have a habit of shifting colors like a lizard.
The smell of the pending shower is strong on September’s breath;
the sun take a well-deserved break.
Mango season is long gone,
and bellies are tied up...

Narrative
Giant Sea Turtle Saved the DayThe giant sea turtle saved the day by being the ride for many.
He rescued a pelican, a cat, a penguin and a dog named Penny.
Their ship went down, and they were at the mercy of the waves.
If not for turtle, they would all be in...

A Life Never SavedBefore I go hide,
I shall rest in the tide-
After the waves,
my life I shall save.
I needed this life-
I craved a passion so strong,
knowing all along she’d
become my wife.
Like salt to the sea,
she was meant for me-
But I abandoned my future
at the shore and needed...

Verse
Saved By a BanditYou call me Bandit ‘cause I rummage through trash cans
Searching for leftovers with my five-fingered hands
Mama Coon, believe me, I wasn’t expectin’
To sort through the rubble and find this sweet kitten
She was tired, hungry; I shared my bounty with her
She licked my face and fell...

Saved By a WizardSaved By A Wizard
It was beginning to get dusk,
the crimson red moon was out.
Eerie sounds, you could hear
while we were out and about.
Deep in the mist,
Eyes glowed of red.
We heard a dark voice,
This is what it said,
"You're both mine tonight."
I screamed, you grabbed...

Saved My LifeI went back into that dark, dark place
Were demons dwell
And
Lives are taken away
But
Through the pain
And
Through the tears
You were there and kept me near.
You saved my life by loving me;
Your silent strength was the key.
Gentle touches and...

Dramatic Monologue
Saved For RavenHer daddy’s grave is the oldest,
His name is hard to read.
She knew his stone had corroded
And has brought supplies she’ll need.
Near to him is her young husband.
He had been the next to die.
She used to come here often
Just to sit by his grave and cry.
Next...

Jesus Did It AllJesus walked up that hill to Calvary
Freeing a sin filled world from slavery
To evil that was caused by God’s enemy
A fallen angel who was filled with jealousy
Because he knew God was the mighty one
Who shaped all of creation before He was done
Thank God I’m saved
I’m...

The End
When I remember her, I think of hope she aroused, prayers she inspired, dreams she encouraged. When I think of her, and remember… it is my own heart who beats more tenderly ~ quote by poet
Just a fading star,
she lingers in his thoughts,
singing from afar,
of...
