When we are young we are told
"don't let youth pass you by"
That before we know it life will pass
"in the blink of an eye"
As a child we are invincible, we live
life day to day,
We don't care what tomorrow brings
we only want to play.
Teen years, we experiment with sex,
drugs and crime.
Not worried about repercussions, we
still have lots of time.
After this we get a job just starting
out our life,
Get married and have kids, with your
husband or wife.
In your 30s now, so many
responsibilities for you,
Dreams have to be put on hold,
there's just too much to do.
My advice to you my friends is never
tempt your fate,
Live your dreams when you can, you
don't ever have to wait.
Cause the day will come when you
wake up, and you can't help but
think.
That "why did life go by so fast" and
"why'd I have to blink"
a beautiful day
a light day becomes so beautiful in every
beautiful way
i said my ceizar i would forever stay by your side
each night that turns
each day the become so real in your eyes so beautiful so bright
like the moons light the stary night
rain gentle fall over the beautiful Rio DE janeiro shore
where you and me will rest forever more
my ceizar you are my forever cure
EU Te amo ceizar of Duncan
My perfect day is being at the beach
My perfect day is swimming in the sea
My perfect day is playing at the park
My perfect day is watching the birds sing away
My perfect day is having a dance
My perfect day is singing out loud
My perfect day is looking at flowers
My perfect day is being at Newark
My perfect day is watching all the animals
My perfect day is spinning round and round
My perfect day is playing in the rain
My perfect day is jumping up and down
But most of all
My perfect day is being with my family and friends
BY JAMES CHRISTIAN
THE SUN GLISTENED MY SKIN AS I LOOK TO SKY SHE CALLED MY NAME WITH A SWEET
SYMPHONY.
A MELODY THAT BRINGS JOY TO MY EARS AQUARIUS CALLS OUT TO THE LAKES, THE
OCEANS AND RIVERS.
TO COOL THE FLESH AND GIVE THEM SHIVERS.
THE RAIN COMES OUT OF THE CLOUDS LIKE DIAMONDS AND PEARLS.
I PLAY IN IT AND DO SOME TWIRLS THE DAY GOES ON UNTIL THE MOON ARRIVES.
NOW I KNOW THAT HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO SURVIVE.
GOLD SUMMER ALLOWS ME TO CONNECT TO THE SEA.
SHARING ITS BEAUTY WITH THE WORLD AND DEVOURING ITS PRESENCE.
THE STARS ARE GLOWING FROM ABOVE TO SHOWER ME WITH A TENDER LOVE.
I REST ON MY PILLOW WAITING FOR THE ANOTHER DAY TO ENJOY THIS SEASON ONE
MORE TIME.
Happiness though needs no reason to survive
But one day it came as in heavenly disguise
Happiness crossed boundaries making day bright
As i was blessed to bring smiles to my parents life...
Our wreath is found on a day of snow;
Snow-filled roads and glistening flakes.
Flakes of crystal fall on the pine;
Pine-filled forests christened with falling snow.
Snow falls on the morning of Christmas.
Christmas wreath upon the door
Doorbell rings; it's Christmas day!
Day of love, day of peace, day of snow.
It is one of God's own treasures
And is presented unto me
In a frame of golden sunshine
On a sea of tranquility.
This day is worth the living through
The other three sixty and four.
It's accompanied with a promise,
He will someday, be sending more.
Forgive me please, for lamenting
When skies were dreary, dark and gray.
They were part of the formula
That created this special day.
I'm glad it comes infrequently,
This unique day and its pleasures.
I recognize its summer dress.
It is one of God's own treasures.
My Fantasy World
In my fantasy world only men that are brave
Wearing fig leaves would fan me and feed me crisp green grapes throughout the day.
Hugs and kisses are our legal form of pay,
Every day is Friday,
All fights are played out with figures made of red clay.
The only month that we have is the pleasant month of May.
Each year I get only younger and fewer wrinkles appear on my face on my birthday.
Men ask for directions and invite us women into their man caves every day.
Saying what you think is always okay.
I love you is something special that people always to one another say.
At the end of the day I receive a fresh spring flower bouquet.
Each night I end watching the most beautiful sunset over the moon lit bay.
This is a taste of my fantasy world.
I love the smell of lavender,
Honey on my lips and fingertips,
Cool breeze of sunshine and guiltless nights,
Happy day of gratitude and life.
I am a lavender petal in my living room,
In a house of small and large wrong things,
I am right by my own standard
I seek nothing less than happiness
And my tea is steeping calm,
And my day is finally gone,
But my night is all along too short,
‘Til my tea is done
Thanks for listening today and letting me stay,
Thanks for the words of wisdom and spite,
Thanks for the spectacular fight, oh so spectacular.
And oh so tea, and calming lavender breeze by my nose, calm sight of string on tea
I am so thrilled to be with thee
Bunny hop four o'clock in the morning bunny hop
for the morning rush bunny hop to catch the bus
bunny waits for the day to begin bunny meets a friend
bunny hop time to goes to break bunny hop just can't wait
damn when will this day end bunny hop just had a thought
this can't be all that life has to offer bunny hop back to the
bus stop
bunny hop open surprise box to read lottery ticket brings bunny hop
to tears see blessings are near bunny life will never be the same
joy and laughter replaces every day strain.

Be the new day of my new year, be
the answer to my searchings. Let me
walk your side in care, and in times
of sorrow let me share. Take my
thoughts and feed your dreams, take
this heart and sleep within. Be my
new day of this new year, let your
aura fill the air, let every breathe I
take be of you. Where you have
darkness let me be your light, and
when your lonely to warm your
night. Long may my hands hold,
arms enfold, and through our
journey love be sold. Be my new
day of the new year, every year.
One day I'll stop fearing you
Regain my grip on reality
And in my mind the stars will have disappeared
Returning light where light is due
Excuses be devoid of meaning
But time was never kind to me
I cower in the corner
Of a dark and senseless world
Bereft of ears to hear your voice
Blessed child
The day you are redeemed
Is the day you stop denying
that I am always with you
In Heaven you are not condemned
In Heaven you will have disappeared
Returning light where light is due
And on that day we rediscover infinity
Labor day is here,
sitting outside as
the breezes gently
blow through the patio.
Blue skies for now,
so quite and still
by this afternoon showers
will be on us.
Labor day breezes
feeling so good on
this day so glad
and free.
Loving this freedom
of wants and wishes
coming true on
this beautiful day.

The day had started out pretty much like all of the rest,
But along about noon I was put to the test.
Seems that the front that we all try to show,
Was suddenly ripped away and there was no where to go.
And I felt so ashamed being exposed was this the plan,
Not the person of grandeur, but simply a mortal man.
Such a humbling experience we all should face,
Being honest with yourself will put you miles ahead of most others in this race.
When you remove all the smoke and mirrors then you can truly see,
Lies are like anchors that hold on tight and won’t set you free.
Then you can make peace with yourself and live life the way it was intended to be,
No hidden agendas, all darkness dispelled, then God’s spirit can enter and take hold you’ll see.
I’m glad for this day that I dreaded for so long,
Is behind me now and I’m cleansed of all wrong.
A second chance at life I was born again,
Now it’s up to me to live it without worldly sin.
If you to are living a lie, as all have done, it’s not too late,
Accept Jesus into your heart, step out in faith, no need to wait.
