Good Samaritan Twist of Fate
You all came in from the cold shivering
all dressed in red which is bewildering
you'd stay and hover
cause some clutter
but at least you all stopped quivering

Again found you at my kitchen sink
I thought perhaps you all wanted a drink
so I ran the tap water
not thinking it...

It is a Wednesday afternoon during the school year.
That means sixth-grader Sallee Jacobs will be walking home today.
Sallee's mother works in the emergency room on Wednesdays,
Otherwise she picks Sallee up at the school that is one mile from their home.

On this particular Wednesday, it is...

Twist of Fate
I don't see how people can go through it.
I mean it makes me want to vomit.
The person has to have another choice.
The only thing she hears is her own voice.

She doesn't know if she can give it up.
Its something that matters like a little pup.
If...

Twist of Fate
Many roads we all travel, a seemingly endless trip,
looking for that one lasting relationship.
Then destiny brings two wandering people together,
caught up in confusion hoping for the better.
Time will tell many do say,
if fate will have its dubious way.
With every look I do see,
a twinkling in...

"Tap! Tap! Tap!" on the wrist 
of a collapsed comatose man.
Then a prolonged pressure;  
feeling for a pulse...
nothing.

The paramedic proceeds CPR...
"one one thousand!
      two one thousand!
           three one thousand!"
Again,...

Earlier today,
I took a voyage of the mind.
Looking for a clue,
But didn't know what I would find.

I soon caught a glimpse,
While in a meditative state.
A path to my goal,
And the solution to my fate.

With a flash of light,
I felt a vibrant sensation.
My heart beating fast,
I...

black clouds in the blue
started raining cats and dogs
submerging the roads

A man was walking in rain queerly.
Mocking at running men unfairly
An umbrella he had.
But ill-luck made him sad.
Wind upturned it; he was drenched merely.

fate does strange twists; no remedies for; one should stop giving oneself...

In a Twist of Fate
life can be
taken from you

In a Twist of Fate
you can reach highest heights
or lowest depths

In a Twist of Fate
your heart can be 
crushed or elated

In a Twist of Fate
you can be rich
or pennyless

In a Twist of Fate
you can become
injured or disabled

In...

Sequence of events 
Change in a moment your life 
For better or worse
Shaking the beliefs you had
Buried deeply in your mind

As I sat and thought
'your birthday is coming'
I smiled then frowned
realizing I have no money;
decided to go for a walk
didn't know what to do
then I found 5 dollars
and had a solution
walked up the hill
and bought a lottery ticket,
drew you a card
sealed your present
went to your...

A Twist of Fate
The day was long 
Our eyes did cry 
As we told Bay St. Louis 
Our final good-bye. 

Katrina horribly took 
Our home away. 
The main thing is 
That our faith is here to stay. 

A year has gone by
Since that terrible day
Yet our faith, and...

To let her meander in

Occuring all on its own.
Only a matter
If you unwind together,
Or sit until you’re alone....

Twist of Fate
I am remembering you when it was all so good.
Simply because you will never lose your shine!
On top of your head is a radiating golden shrine.
One by one and row by row is where we all stood.

If you wouldn’t and they didn’t, then I could.
Embedded...

Brittany Murphy was this woman's name.
She had talent, beauty, fortune and fame.
She provided the voice of Luanne Platter on King of the Hill.
When people watched her perform, she gave all of us thrills.

I was shocked when she died on the 20th of December.
She was a...
