Thinking Young
By Franklin Price
7/27/2019
(A request from Marsha)
Years have gone, can't bring them back
Can't stop the chiming clock
Memories and attitudes
Help your views when taking stock
There is no magic wishing booth
There are friends and family
To help you make the very best
Of where you are or want to be
Make the best of what you have
Of each day you're going through
Talk with the youngters when you can
You'll find they'll keep you younger too
Don't dwell on thoughts like “woe is me”
Don't dwell on days of yore
Make the best of where you are
That's what maturity is for
When glancing in the mirror
Look your reflection in the eye
Resolve to make the best of age
Don't let those wrinkles make you sigh
May be looking at a face with age
The skin may be a little slack
With a little bit of effort
There will be young eyes looking back
May I tell YOU a story , about Prayer in my Life
There was a time I hated my GOD, (as a foolish waif)
I cried for so long when HE took “ LENORE “ my Wife
It took 26 years before I Prayed “Please keep Lenore safe”
Now every time when I kneel down, Bow my head and Pray
I know that GOD will answer me, in a very LOVING Way
Let’s all hold hands, and Pray to GOD for Sara and Her Son
A Prayer or two For Rhonda H and my Friend Vince’s Son
Take away the pain and Sorrow as we praise YOUR Name
Yesterday , Today , Tomorrow , and for the eons of ETERNITY
In the name of the Father - God : The Son - Salvation : and the--
Holy Spirit - The Comforter Who absorbs the tears WE cry : AMEN
Dedicated To Sara Kendrick and HER Family May YOU be Blessed
by the POWER of PRAYER ; With LOVE ALWAYS...Harry
Oft when folks are talkin',
They'll use a phrase or two,
That can be taken wrongly,
The meaning misconstrued;
And so they get the text all wrong,
And spread it far and wide,
And when you learn what you have said,
You wonder why they lied.
Some people just don't listen,
When others talk to them,
So just part of what you're saying,
Ever gets through to them.
Here a word and there a phrase,
Is stored within their mind;
Then they weave it all together,
And Oh what they can find.
It pays you well to watch your words,
Speak plain, don't joke around;
For what you say in jest my friend,
Will later on rebound.
Then just try to 'splain it.
Explain it if you can;
But most folks won't believe you,
'Cause they just don't understand.
Judy Ball
So often people spread around gossip that has no real bearing whatsoever simply because they misunderstood what someone said to them.
Sometimes people will say something in jest that others take as serious talk so that's the story they spread to others.
Why is that?
Because it's often more fun to some people to believe the worst than it is to believe the best about someone else.
Remember, when someone tells you gossip about someone else it's a good idea to ask yourself what that same person says about you when you aren't there to defend yourself.
A gossip is like a loaded gun.
When it goes off all it causes is destruction.
This Evening Just a Week Ago
By Franklin Price
01/25/2022
This evening just a week ago, my soul mate left this life
The best friend that I ever had; grandmother, mother and my wife
November twenty-first, this year, would have been year fifty three
I'll still be celebrating, and she'll still be here with me.
She'll be here in my heart and mind, yet be looking from above,
Through a window in our heaven's home, she'll be sending me her love.
I am sad for me, I'm here alone, in this house we made our own,
Doesn't seem a week ago; my how the mourning time has flown.
If not for family and friends, who have shown their love for me,
I'd be consumed by my sweet sorrow, in a place I should not be.
There are so many of you who live alone without your spouse
Yet are sending me condolences, with love, here to my house.
I know it can't be easy, bringing hurt back to the top.
I thank God that he has sent you. Pray to Him you do not stop
Please know how much you've helped me in this first week of my grief
God has seen the caring from your hearts, that your love has brought relief
More than I can count have helped me. I know that you miss her too.
I feel your arms around my shoulders, that's what caring people do.
Each day is getting easier to move along and not to cry.
I don't question that God took her first. It's not my place to question why.
Quietly he goes about assessing situations,
Searching for the weakest link,
The source of consternation;
Seeking out the places where you need to make improvement.
He'll be your guide, a rudder,
The source of your inducement.
Evaluating habits, of each one he takes note,
Caring not how you must feel,
Or of the ire evoked.
Improving others character is his goal in life,
Teaching and chastising,
His family, friiends and wife.
Of singular importance, his opinion of the world.
It does no good to disagree,
Or dodge invectives hurled,
At all who wish to argue point, dispute he will not suffer,
From any who would self-appoint,
Themselves to be a buffer,
Twixt a man who wishes naught but good upon the world;
To bestow upon us all,
His precious wisdom's pearls.
He points out how it should be and what you're doing wrong,
Elaborating on each fault,
It's like a kind of song.
He'll sing it to the very end, though end I've never heard.
When you explode and tell him off,
He thinks you quite absurd.
It's hard to be above it all, you feel so all alone.
They say good looks are but skin deep,
But Dumb Goes To The Bone.
Judy Ball
Thinking it's up to you to point out everyone's faults or what's wrong with the world today is going to drive people in the other direction when they see you coming.
Meet the ‘rents (A bee movie)
As Humble left the honeycomb, now a bee,
He was accompanied by a guard with a kind heart.
The guards name was Bee-Real, a real gentleman, you’ll see
And he said “Follow me. I’ll take you to where your new parents are.”
There was a little room and as Humble went inside,
There were a pair of bees waiting for Humbles arrival…
We have been waiting for you, the lady bee said with a smile.
How do you do? Said the male.
Humble was left confused and in a state of bedazzle.
It’s a pleasure to meet you Humble…
This is your new mother ‘Bakes-a-good-crumble’;
And I am your father ‘Dude’.
We’ve have been waiting to meet you.
We are your new relative bees.
Welcome to the Bumble family.
We are going to look after you, is there anything you want to know?
Who are you?
We are the people who will raise you as our own.
We will welcome you, with loving arms, into our home.
The Queen Bee cannot look after,
The 2000 bees she has created today.
So we are your adoptive parents. Is that ok?
I’m one of two thousand offspring?
Yes Humble, one of two thousand bees born today,
But one in a million to us Humble…come give us a hug…we don’t sting.

To the one I see in a star
The brightest of them all and the
Closest to my heart.
My Evening Star, sweet Ilion,
How you’ve helped me so.
You’ve healed me
And you’ve guided me,
But I’m afraid I must go.
For that one day is coming
So much sooner than I‘d like.
That one heart broken day where I will no longer see his
Beautiful blue eyes.
My Evening Star, so much loved, my
Star of Ilion.
I have but one request-
Take care of him when I’ve gone.
Ilion, he’s my life.
Precious Wolf Boy.
Nicodu Blue.
And when I move to that foreign place,
Give my heart to him
Because I leave it with you.
Ilion, my heart is his,
And it has been for awhile.
I just wish I could hold him,
To say I love him,
See him smile.
Take care of him, don’t leave his side,
Ilion listen to me!
Please just do this one request.
Please don’t leave him.
For me.
Ilion, you take care. How I’ll miss you so.
And remember, dear Evening, I will ALWAYS be there when the night sky is cold.
And when you miss me, let Nick know,
And you both can send me smiles.
I will always catch them, I promise,
And return them ten fold.
I love you, I’ll miss you.
Evening Star, sweet Ilion.
Remember to take care of Nick, but for now, I have to go.

Scene 1 - In a cabin on the Mountain side:
" Kenny, you ol' Food Dog you. How was your trip" '" Long and boring. I came as soon as I got your letter. How's Chef doing?"
"Not well, they have him over at the old folks home, they want to commit him for Dementia; as Executor of his estate they need
your signature." " I doubt they'll get that." " A Dr. Mendelsohnn has a status meeting tomorrow at 2" " Well what happened? "Chef
was on one of his nature walks when he ran into two hikers, they got scared and called 911, said there was a crazy man in the woods.
By time the cops got up here Harry was home." "Who was with him, Phil who was with him?" " Kenny, it was Black Friday everyone
was at work" " Jesus Christ, Sorry Lord. Phil, you guys promised never to leave him alone after he was diagnosed with stomach cancer"
" Sorry Ken I got called into work, Chef said he felt fine, you know how Chef is about working." Yea I know, but we also know he's
not always truthful about his health. So they just took him away" Not really, when Mike got here there was 4 cop cars in the yard, they
had to literally drag him out. Chef wasn't acting sane. Dr. Mendelsohnn said he has Dementia, and wants to commit him to Easy Rest Adult Care."
" Not a problem, Phil, Does the year 2004 and 2007 mean anything to Chef" "Redsox World Series Wins." Right , Chef said when he doesn't
remember them, then it's time to leave this realm
Scene 2 - Easy Rest Adult Care Fascility
Love goes on forevermore. Love seeks to heal, not hurt. Love is patient, and never quits. You can trust in love when everything fails. Love family, friends, and country. Never hate.

i lay this down at your feet,
i lay this down to rest,
for i know, dear lord, the reasons unknown are meant only for my best,
who can fathom your understanding, or reach out to touch the stars,
and i know the impossible sits in your hands, your boundaries are never to far,
who am i to walk too far ahead, or sit back and lagger behind,
all i need is to hold your hand, and walk right by your side,
the things i so desperately want in my life, may not be your plans for me,
and even still you know the secret desires of my heart, and you'll choose what's
meant to be,
in the meantime, i'll press into your love for me, and concentrate on my friendship
with you,
and whatever battles come my way, i know you'll take me through,
you'll give meaning and purpose in every answer that you reveal to me
what hurts right now, i'll later understand, my eyes will one day see.
