Premium Member Our World Is Under Relentless Attack

Our world is under relentless attack
We all need to be careful about the impact
Of this virus on us. Be strong, healthy and positive
About defeating “Hate”. Be active. Be proactive
Wash our hands and brains and stay awake, away
From people who’re sick, sneezing and thrown away
By the toxic virus, which is attacking all of us
We’re under attack; we need to exterminate this bug
Which is invisible, and elusive. Spray under the rug
And disinfect from top to bottom. Let’s be the boss
Of HATRED-100. We’re under constant attack
Let’s fight back. Let’s push back
This pandemic. There’s no need to panic
Yes, this is not the time to have a picnic
Let’s be safe and conservative
Let’s be careful, personal and proactive
Exercise, jump for joy. No ‘high five’ please
We must defeat this deadly disease
Our world is under unrelenting attack
The enemy is deadly and elusive
We all must fight and push back
We must be strong and proactive
Be prudent against all enemies
Say thank you, you’re welcome and please
Wash our hands, love our friends
Kill the virus by sanitizing our brains
Hearts, souls, spleens and hands
And keep Hatred away from our friends
From our neighbors and from the folks
Of our surroundings.  Hate is no joke, no hoax
Love is the answer, love is the panaceas
Love is hope. Love is the antidote against all galimatias.

Premium Member Sweeter the Loss

Sweeter would be the loss of pain than riches
Like a royal wardrobe richly adorned
Once again to sew those lovely stitches
A new lease upon life slowly born

Pain a constant companion now dismissed
Jump for joy, kiss those moist soft lips
Youth's freedom filled with enthusiasm's  kiss 
Pain gone, left behind, in early bud nipped

Flutter like a yellow butterfly in flight
Carried 'pon the wind from flower to bloom
Enjoy being high in the spirit's light
Like swallows dancing upon wind's voom

Pain's constant presence destroys  life's pleasures
Freedom would be a dance on a breeze so pure

What Freedom Cost Me

I used to find happiness in you
But all of a sudden, I’m feeling blue
I can’t help but think I need more
than just being confined beyond close doors

I hesitate to let you know
But I can’t help but let it show
The burden that’s killing me inside
Is something I can’t really hide

All of a sudden, you hold me
tears falling down from your face, slowly
Then you whispered to me gently
“My love, be free. Go and be happy”

And so I run without looking back 
I jump for joy as I join  my pack
We play all day under the sun
We hop, we jump, without ceasing, we run

But when the sun sets and it gets dark
When the moon rises in the midnight sky
when the wolf howls and the dogs bark
My heart starts to ache and I can’t help but cry

The regret creeps in my heart like poison 
like a soft song, sang in unison
As the chilly wind sends shivers down my spine
I long for those days when you used to call me “mine”

And now that you are so far away
I am feeling down, sad, and astray
I wonder if this is worth it you see 
I wonder “What my freedom cost me?”

I'M Thankful

I'm thankful

Clap your hands 
To the sound
Praise the Lord 
We are around 
Got my limbs , got my mind 
Thank you Lord 
I'm doing fine 
Jump for Joy 
It's ok 
Keeping praising him 
Don't loose the faith 
Take the weight of the world off my back and my ankles 
Through all of it Lord I'm thankful

Chorus 
I'm thankful 
For the gift of life 
I'm thankful
For your sacrifice
I'm thankful for all you've Done 
I'm thankful for Jesus your son

Verse 2
Sometime I know I'm not worthy 
Feel like a cloth that's dirty 
Then I remember when you said back then
Repent you'll forgive me for my sins 
So that's what I did 
I repented , thankful you didn't resent me 
I know I've made mistakes 
You let me know it's not to late 
So I put on my shield 
Because I know you are a healer 
I played my cards right your the perfect dealer 
You said in every thing give thanks 
Without you in my life I can't 

Chorus 
I'm thankful 
For the gift of life 
I'm thankful
For your sacrifice
I'm thankful for all you've Done 
I'm thankful for Jesus your son

Hook 
I'm thankful I'm humble , catch me when I stumble
(Repeat 1x)

Chorus 
I'm thankful 
For the gift of life 
I'm thankful
For your sacrifice
I'm thankful for all you've Done 
I'm thankful for Jesus your son
(Repeat until chorus fades)

Let's jump for joy, the weekend's here at last,
I must forget my work worries and strife.
We'll head to the beach, I've checked the forecast. -
I can just unwind and enjoy my life,
being with our kids and my lovely wife.
The pressures of work sure can take their toll,
family time truly uplifts my soul.
Building sandcastles, paddling in the sea,
taking time out, an achievable goal.
Precious moments with all the family!

Having a field day:
        My joy immense
        At your expense

Immune to crocodile tears:
        The old judge
        Will not budge	 

Best thing since sliced bread:
	Produced an innovation
	Without any hesitation

Head above water:
	Averting with persuasion
	Bad financial situation

Child’s play:
	Brand new toy
	Jump for joy

Winter blues:
	Right on cue
	Down with flu

Shipwrecked:
	Stuck on reef 
        Oh good grief!

Philosophy:
	A hot potato
	Tackled by Plato

Call it a day:
	Do not commit
	Time to quit

Play it by ear:
	My only advice
	Is to improvise

A Touch of Euphoria

Allow us to feel a touch of euphoria every day..
Upon waking in the morning..
Before we step out of bed..
Place our two feet on the ground. 
We take a few breaths..
To quiet our mind..


In an alpha state ..
I am..
What a way to start the day..

A few moments of meditation..
Will allow a touch of euphoria..

We go about our business the rest of day..
Routines..
Responsibilities
Duties..
Work..
The same old grind..
Life is happening..
Every single day..

Allow a short time of chill..
take a chill pill if you will
Take..
Just a few breaths..
Focus only in the moment..

Do what you love..
Your heart will thank you..

When negative thoughts pour in..
Like pouring rain
Often buckets of rain..
Acknowledge them..
For only the moment..
Quicikly..
Then bid it a farewell..

Practice an act of kindness..
Absorb yourself..
Fill yourself ..
Immense yourself ..
With love..

Feeling grateful..
Gratitude will compliment..
Will allow..
A touch of eurphoria..

Living in the moment..
Being who you are..
Awareness of your own divinity
Will allow a touch of eurphoria..

Feel a touch of euphoria every day..
Your soul will jump for joy..

Premium Member June

Pleasant greetings June,
You bring with you the rise
Of a new brimming full Strawberry Moon
The last full moon of spring.
Amid your warmest longer days
And the shortest nights, you introduce
The summer solstice the first day of summer.

You make the children jump for joy
(Yay, School is out!)
A time of infinite fun.

Romance inspires cozy night
Endow with poetic charm
Under the flickering magical moon.

You bring with you, the fickle gaiety
Among the rhythm of the cricket's chirps,
Frogs croaking after a refreshing rain,
Pecking of the woodpecker,
Cooing of the mourning dove,
And mocking chirps of the mockingbird.

You brighten the world with luxuriant engrave gardens
Cascading soothing and calming fragrant blooms.

However,

You only bring the fun for a little while
Then it's gone,
As Autumn comes like a thief in the night
And steal you away..

Premium Member Children of the Father God

Children of the Father God

Little child sits listening in Sunday school –
Listening to lessons on the golden rule –
Singing songs of Jesus – of the Savior’s love
Until the Sunday hour is done.

Teacher standing at the door to say “Good bye”
Feels a tiny hand slip in her hand –
Looking down she sees two bright eyes
And a question that cannot be disguised.

“How many children does the Father have?
Are there any other children just like me?
God must have the biggest family here on this earth.”
Yes, every face – every race - that you see.

Little child stands listening at the door;
Teacher sees a question coming – just one more –
Did the Lord jump for joy the day I was born?
Did the Lord plan for you and me?

Teacher looks deep in her eyes of childlike awe
Knowing just how important this answer is
With a gentle smile she draws her close 
Then slowly kneels to so gently say:

“We are all the children of the Father, God -
Each of us a member of God’s family
God planned for every one of us who walks on this earth
Every face – every race – that you see.”

Based on a true conversation experience with a little child in Los Angeles, CA after a concert.  

"Each of us is needed.  Each of us is necessary."
