around and around
petals fall into place
basking in sunlight
Sometimes plans have many parts;
Not all will you embrace.
Yet if you’re lucky, with some smarts,
They might fall into place.
A little leeway might just pave
The way to make things work
And compromise could help to stave
Resentments which might lurk.
Too often people won’t engage
In planning’s give and take,
The lack of which can set the stage
For someone’s heart to break.
Yet thinking every aspect through
Of all suggestions made
Can shine a light of hope in lieu
Of hurts that might pervade.
A once in a lifetime event.
Like planets becoming aligned.
You led me out into the light.
We left all the shadows behind.
It’s something I cannot explain.
A changing of mind and of heart.
I followed you out of my past.
At last, now, my future can start.
Because of you.
Because of your love.
The pieces all fall into place.
So many things start making sense.
Suddenly everything’s greener
But now on my side of the fence.
It’s something I cannot define.
Leaves Webster, himself, at a loss.
You drag me up out of my pain.
At last I can set down my cross.
Because of you.
Because of your love.
Like once in a thousand blue moons
A miracle might just occur.
The lost sheep might find its way home.
Bad fortune might somehow reverse.
It’s something one cannot predict.
A gift given out of the blue.
A step ‘round the corner of fate,
At last I am seeing the truth.
Because of you.
Because of your love.
The hardest job you will ever have is love.
It is not just a gift from above.
It takes a lot of work to get it right.
Sometimes you may fight.
But always be each other's light.
Don't get stuck on a negative thought.
This is from lessons taught.
Only thinking about the bad.
Makes you sad.
Turns your thoughts blue.
Makes the negativity come true.
If you focus on the good.
This must be understood. The happy stays stronger.
Longer.
You only have today.
Face it in a positive way.
If you face life with grace
Tomorrow will fall into place.
Many people are too fixate on their past experience
Your past made you as you are today
But it doesn't define your future
Analyze your past to understand what actions and decisions
Brought you where you are today
Based on this analysis formulate ideas to be done
Take new solutions
Everyone has a resource to become anyone in the future
The Almighty God gave us hands, legs, feelings and brain
Start creating your new reality
Discover a new way of thinking without turning back
Your breakthrough is near if you search
Believe in the process
Act upon what's necessary
Everything will fall into place
Keep going what's right for you
Strive and never give up.
Brown eyed boy who loves his toys ,of cardboard shiny and non
My love for you burns yet my heart still yearns for the child this we hath gone ,My love my heart watch everything start to fall into place my love
My heart I surrender so warm and tender my love for you I protect
Brown eyed boy who loves his toys oh my oh my how I forget ,My love for him hath grown immensely for I have grown and expanded our history,Our love forever growing, conquering it all and waiting to fall he holds my heart on high,my love my friend from now til the end my special type of man ,If no one can do it don't just un do this call on my man for love,up above all else he loves myself my heart and soul of gold,my feelings of grief my feelings of peace he's always a phone call away ,So no matter the time no matter the place I’d choose you again every day.
Viewing yourself from afar.
Come closer,
See who you are.
Reflections of a friend's past.
Longing parents,
Ambitions that didn't last.
Who is this person?
Wavy images floating bye.
Likely catches the eye.
Come closer and see.
Remove the blur.
Etched lines fall into place,
Are you what you want to be?
Do you care if you are free?
What needs to change?
When the image sharpens,
As you grow closer still.
Who you are is your free will.
Blessed Be The Peacemakers
(A prayer to mark this eventful day)
Blessed be the peacemakers
Who change violence into lasting peace
May they become as one team of partakers
and may the deadly fire at long last cease
May God give you strength to bear the worldly burdens
According to our Lord's Scriptures and acts we believe in
An abiding truce, the missing piece
May fall into place for the sake of world peace
Mid East, the cradle of civilization
Bring a brightening day upon mankind's re-creation
Sometimes you have to let go so that the pieces can fall into place over time
What inspires us to write heart felt poetry
To divulge our innermost thoughts and feelings
It's certainly not to gain fame or fortune
Ever heard of a millionaire poet
Those two words are never uttered
In the very same breath
It's a proven fact poets don't write poetry
With the view of earning a fortune
Poets write poetry to satisfy an inner need
To create to inspire to motivate
That tug at the heartstrings
That bring sunshine to dullest of days
That express every day feelings
In a most poetic way
We know when the words just fall into place
That something special is about to happen
We don't need to wrack our brains
Our innermost being writes the words
We just dutifully record them
And sign our name at the bottom
We are secretaries of our soul
A bleached blonde sunset that arrogates my depression.
I've outgrown the inability to smile at the joke with no punchline.
Listening to the noise on the radio is enough to bring anyone to an emotional crash.
My phone weighs much less without the numbers that did not belong in the first place.
I've found nirvana in making a new best friend in myself.
Turn inward for inner peace and the rest will fall into place.
You question my words
Wanting them to not be heard
Flying like a bird
You call me verbose
But see I am quite the pro
With much wit to show
I do cry these days
But I am finding my way
I will be okay
I do not mince words
You may say that I'm a nerd
You smell like a turd
My rhythm and rhymes
Fall into place all the time
Netting me a dime
Focus on your works
As I stand here with a smirk
I guess that's a quirk
You question my words
But your silly hate is cured
And your shade deferred
These words are not guns
But have the power to stun
Now I think I'm done
As clouds march behind the larger one ahead,
I think about one step at a time being easier instead
When dealing with life's big changing events,
it can lead to being tired, and also stressed
I find trying to do a piece at a time is helpful and best
Somehow it makes things easier to fall into place
A big picture all at once can be overwhelming to face
I finish a task, take a break and tell myself I'm getting there
There's a lot at stake, worth the focus, on one thing, not everywhere
It can become easier, than one would expect it to be
Because fearful anticipation blocks the ability to see
So I give it a try, it is working, each day at a time I face
Later I'll look back, at accomplishments from my destined place

Across my mind thoughts race
To vanish without a trace
In the quiet of night
As I sit here and write
My phone gives me light
The world outside starts to fade
Into my imagination I start to wade
In my head so many a word
Wishing only to be heard
They shout
Let me out
I want to be a word
That finally gets heard
From my mind they race
To fall into place
Over this screen of white
On which I write
A poem or a song
Never takes to long
When your a word
Wishing to be heard
I planned this life no to be this
Not to be the man I am
The one who controls all you do
The one who speaks words of hurt
The one you fear
My plan wasn't to curse your life
My plan was to make it bright
But all I have done is made it dark
My issues are not your fault
Our issuse are not our fault
They are a product of the norm
We need to break free
To be apart from our hurt
To continue to grow in calm and truth
There is destination for this course we are on
But it is a journey we have needed to take for so many years
My love for you is the same but the love we share is not at all the same
My place in your world now is to become the heal
The one you can talk to with no fear
The one I pray has the right words to say
For years they have run a stray
We both need to be the healers of us and the rest I know will fall into place.
