The Website Helped Me in No Way

I spent two hours on the website trying to renew my license
new system installed in January
Much easier they said
My husband spent an hour on it
He brought me their phone number
Call them, he suggested
I could not get a person, only a recorded message

If you are in group A, press 1
If you are in group B, press 2
If you are in group C…..
I did not know what group I was in
That is on a teensy postcard we had accidentally thrown away

I resolved to try the next day
Spent half an hour on the phone when I noticed online help
I called the number
The lady talked me through steps one through eight.
I cannot help you past this step, she informed me.
It has to be the director of your group.
Which group are you in?

She helped me surmount

She has had her share of pain, the kind that turns life inside out
She has learned to survive on her own while inside, she wants to shout
She has passed through doubts and came out the other side
She has humbly rebuilt from places where people lied
She has felt broken while still caring for her friend,
who receives her support with a gratitude that will never end
For she shows with angelic action that she understands,
how to care, regardless of where her friend lands
Thank you my friend, in more ways than I can count
Never forget the many things, you helped me surmount!

It Cannot Be Helped

You want for the crawls and climbs,
sublimes and lemons.

Let the kid run, helplessly,
so he or she strives
for the unreachable star.

“Stop growing!” a mother hollers.
A father has their bags packed.

Shikata Ga Nai, the wise say.

Mother must cry when separated
by the wibble-wabble of time.

Dad must harumph over remnants,
tricycles and toys in garage and attics,
shed tears behind dry eyes.

Most children fall
into another’s arms
and mother must cry.

Shikata Ga Nai cannot be denied.

The silence of empty nest and eventual death.
The middle years of hugs from kids of kids.

Kids calling through the ether,
wondering why their kid must keep growing taller.

You want to tell the secret, but must hint
at the eventuality -
reality it seems,

Shikata Ga Nai -
don’t deny the truth.

Shikata Ga Nai - It cannot be helped.

It Cannot Be Helped

Cranberry shaded leaves upon
Crepe Myrtle in the fall
Fig leaves change to their ripe color
Now those distant birds' call 

It is so dry, Shikita ga Nai
'Tis the design for this time
But drier than some in the past
There's no reason or rhyme  

Or is it in God's grand design
Of course, it has to be 
God would send rain if it were not
The future is His decree  

Hair turned white, Shikita ga Nai
Permanent color, could dye
But ages' affects, I can't stop
Rapture will be by and by

Let snow fall upon the mountain
Let crevices crinkle
Let the brain and heart be wise
And love's vision twinkle

Shikata ga Nai

It Cannot Be Helped

All you've heard is true.

It cannot be helped,
  hard as we try
the eons of time move right along, unchallenged
 much like the Pilgrim's Progress
 the words of the prophets
 or the biblical words of Christ
indicting us, calling our names
  to open our eyes and see
  to open our ears and listen not just hear,
  to think and contemplate all the possibilities, 
      the end game that will play out.

Will you ask the right questions
 what is it that you seek
 what do you truly believe
 where will this take you in the end
 what price will you have to pay?

Your turn is coming
 there is no escape.
You may do as you will
 right or wrong
 something will happen,
 there will be a catalyst and an action
how will you handle it
 will you ignore it or go with it
 will you speak up or be silent
 will you condemn or justify your actions
  who will you answer to?

Where, when, how
 will you stand among the crowds
 when the decision must be made
 while the path remains unclear
but now,
 your chance
 your time 
has come.

It cannot be helped

          Many times in life bad things have happen to me,
                         things that brought me to my knees weeping;
      things that I had no control over and could not stop,
               they could have broken me but I did not let them. 

           It is my way to fold my petals when I am hurting,
                          to want to hide from the world in the dark;
        to isolate and absorb the silence like it is a magic,
                 then, one day unfold one petal at a time, beautiful.

            I want people to see my weaknesses and courage,
                            to see how I have found a way within;
         to deal with hurt, pain and grief, to let it go and move on,
                  everyone has their way and each is not wrong.

             Do not worry about me, dear hearts, I will emerge,
                             a better poet, a better person in the end;
         my butterfly wings will flutter, my beauty within will shine,
                  and I will soar but only after I let go of my pain.

                For this part of the journey cannot be helped.

I wish I helped myself first

They all got a A, 
I stucked with a C.
Could you wait for us?
Oh, 5min, they got in.
Could you send the homework?
He read it out loud..
Do you know what topics we had again? 
I forgot my notes.
My calender is filled today.
I forgot to read my book.
What was it about again?



My 
 

                                                            Look


            Scares 



                                                                           Me


,,You have to faces!" 
,,No, I am just, people like that are fake."
,,Yes, like you! Like you!
You don't even have good Grades and are structured and know what you want to be when you are older!"
,,I never said that.
You always assumed it.
Because I helped you guys before myself.
And I don't regret any Minute of it.
Just thr Minute, 
where I said my mom to wait, 
to answer instead to you."

Seek the Valley of Bliss

I will move the mountains,
From your shoulders to mine.
Show me your beautiful smile,
And let your uniqueness shine.

No mountain that I move will tire me,
As long as you're always around.
So you can walk a long, easy path,
Without any rocky grounds.

I'll push aside the mountain of doubt,
For you to see you beauty.
I won't stop until your smile lights the world,
I'll make that my biggest duty.

I'll split apart the mountains,
And let the vibrant rays shine in.
I'll smoothen all of the bumpy roads,
A relish in your grin.

I'll move mountains for you,
To show you the glistening sun.
Watch it set and gaze at the moon,
To remind you're number one.

I can move any mountains,
I will guide you through the path.
When things get rocky, I'll lead you through,
And you'll feel my cozy wrath.

Everest is nothing on me,
And your struggles won't climb through.
I will take you on a life-long journey,
And show my empathy towards you.

You help me in my trials,
You help me with my heart.
You help me with my inspiration,
You helped my laugh start.

When Everyone Helped Clean Up

Everyone helped clean up after dinner.
Dad, Mom, brother and me.
Mom created the casserole.
Daddy baked the pumpkin pie.

I set the table.
Brother washed the floor.
We all worked together.
In 1962 we each took up a chore.

We felt needed and loved.
Working together, we would sometimes sing
In 1962 the entire family worked together
To make clean up an easier thing.

Who Helped You

two lost forlorn basset hounds had their tempers on the ground
they were wet and soggy and soppy and lonely, and it was cold.
two gooders named Sammy and Petey came quickly around.
Sammy the cat was the boldest, maybe it was because he was old.

What’s up? He asked the two dog brothers. How can we help?
He was an old hand at being friendly with species of another kind.
Petey chickadee was silent, for she had just eaten some spoiled kelp.
How could a cat help? Pup asked his brother, for he needed his mind.

We could be open and listen, his bro suggested with affection.
Sammy had a great suggestion and sent them in the right direction.
Who helped you? Their mother asked when they returned home.
A wise cat replied the bassets, digging into a giant ham bone.

God Helped Us Out of a Jam

we would like to win
God helped us out of a jam
set a new record

prayed to God each day
show us a way we can win
never be shut out

God was at game day
while we would clap and applaud
in support of team

Our Enemies Have Become Those We Once Helped

Our enemies have become those we once helped
These are the ones we stretched out our hands to
These are the ones we showed our generosity to
These are the ones that have now become our enemies

One day you will remember how much I loved you
One day you will remember how much I cared for you
When your pain returns
You will remember how much I loved you
You can pray all you want
But what you do to others will be done back unto you!

In your first pain, I gave you my heart
I am the one that embraced you when
Your last man saw your foolishness!
Sometimes it takes heartbreak to shake us awake and
Help us see we are worth so
Much more than what we wanted to settle for!
The end is part of the beginning so
When your pain returns
You will remember how much I loved you!
In reality, our enemies have become those we once helped!

And God Helped Me To Burn the World Just To Live In Ice

And God Helped Me To Burn The World Just To Live In Ice
and god helped me burn the world to live in ice.
and it being the hot living sun and it burns.
and in heaven the moon was never kept from me.
and Venus often died and left you breathing on.
and the universe by your hand at once expanded.
and released, you put the comets back in there orbits.
and those eyes that once closed were again opened.
and now the fire burns hotter than before.
and where once was empty space your mind is now opened.
and god helped me to burn the world just to live in ice.

God Helped Us Measure

God Helped Us Measure

God helped us measure
His love that we will treasure
with profound pleasure

Meeting the Past

We've been away too long,
And the friendship between us is no longer there.
And we've known about it for a long time
Before the end of everything.

We came back and everything was destroyed,
And our world no longer exists.
All gifts are thrown like garbage,
In the depths of other people's empty apartments.

Tell me, are you still single?
How do you plan to live now?
I remember your deep voice,
Who helped me get through it.

I'm sorry for the questions,
I'm interested in how life turned out.
I see I've lost some weight,
And, well done, I started Smoking less.

Our future was blown up,
And there is no way to take it back.
Everything that was between us.,
It was strange and out of place.

I am a newborn to this world -
No past or other people's shackles.
The old life completely burned out,
And somewhere lost in the clouds.
