Mellow from head to toe
He’s got more swag than Duolingo
Excellant musical taste for someone that isn’t copy paste
Knows more than just the basics of aesthetics
Got so much style, he’s so worth while
A heart so pure I’d die chasing him more than a mile
Considerate of others, sometimes I wish we were brothers
-I present to you Brady Battram
Motherly Love and Frowns
Treading down the memory lane streams to my mind
memories from far yet near, some sweet, some sour,
memories preciously shelved in the precincts of my inner sanctum;
so sweet were the mindful motherly hugs of love
like the embrace of a divine angel
so serene soft and self-assuring her smiles
like the spring selfless sunshine
so delicious her warm kisses on the forehead
that no other feel can replace,
yet interspersed at times with some harsh words
for playing hide and seek on the sideway street;
so soft was the caress of her hands on the cheeks
that not even a beloved can bestow
so cool and compassionate her cuddly care
no considerate nurse can dispense
so pleasing to rest on her merciful knees
more so after a hectic day`s fatigue,
yet interposed often times with some scowls
for dusting my clothing or getting home late after cycle rides;
In afterthought, her love and frowns have made me the man I am.
When I wait my turn,
I have to learn,
To be patient,
And Considerate,
Of others.
When it's finally my go,
Then I will know,
The people I see,
Will wait for me.
They looked to their tomorrow's
With full insight of their current
disposition.
They spoke of their limitations
And examined their need
Insight of things and those who'd
make enemy of there plans.
When the time for goal setting
and money they knew fugality
Would allow accordance.
Those who knew how people
Looked to bring you to the edge of
push you over.
Without entertaining thoughts
or using words to speak kindly
of assocation they knew if they
we're to fail all in opposition to
What they wanted to do would
In full examination of their age
and ability they looked to tomorrow
and only saw there individual
success to be in as one.
Working together to take care of
One another.
One hundred aging people who knew
If they weren't gonna handle there
retirement no one else would care
enough to help.
They built living quarters in steelframed
Buildings. Had a fully stocked store
Had an auditurium
Bought a bus
Made clothes and grew
Vegetables.
When they saw diversity
they sought success
and made way for
To include folk who wished
To be successful.
They made a frugal place
A worthy considerate!

Hello my brothers
Hello my sisters
We who are strong must be considerate
We who are strong must be
Considerate
of those who are sensitive
of those who are sensitive
bout things like this.
The strong should always
Bare the affirmatives of the weak
And in doing so
And in doing so
Doing so, we do not
We shall not
We must not just please ourselves.
We who are strong must be considerate
We who are strong must be
Considerate
We must pray for those less
Fortunate
Pray for the less fortunate
Always forgiving and giving in thanks
For the down trodden
Give thanks for the less fortunate
Always
We who are strong must be
Considerate
of those who are sensitive
of those who are sensitive
bout things like this.
AMEN!

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2020©
"You need to understand the why,
As in “why” we must try
To improve ourselves each day,
Like a foundation that we lay
Building confidence brick by brick,
And upon the candle of desire is lit
To want something more,
Than we had the day before
Beyond the physical,
Or material
Things to accrue,
Consider improving you
Wisdom to understand,
Not all dealt hands are bad
Gratitude for this life,
Challenges help you stay right
Understanding each of us are different,
And the reason to be considerate
Humble for our individual gifts,
And our judgement to answer all the “ifs”
Limit your self doubt,
Belief is what life is about
Consider then today,
An opportunity in play
To make a better “self”,
Starting with me, myself"
Intuitive.
I am honest to a fault, overly sensitive, tough as nails and dependable.
I have two stepsisters, a half-brother and half-sister.
I love birds, antiques and old houses.
I feel anticipation, frustration and happiness.
I fear spiders, being misunderstood and being totally alone.
I would like to see more kindness in the world, no more abuse, no wars.

Be Considerate Horn Haiku
Be considerate
And never should ever quit
Must have to admit.
Enlist in Marines
Who will always be health feigns
Look great in love scenes.
What will be matter
Every time I grow fatter
Hard to climb ladder.
Have an embargo
Which will stop all the cargo
Here to Chicago.
Now not President
Wonder where all the time went
It was well worth spent.
Call him Trump the Great
Position to elevate
While he lies prostrate.
This has been my ten
And should I do them again
Be sure and say when.
Off to Church.
