Blood On the Glass

step into the soul
of the needy and the vain,
and walk within the fire
watch the weak stand tall again


from the pit of redemption
crawling over glass,
mistakes will revisit
but with faith it all shall pass


with a prayer and a smile
before a future deeds,
that karma can turn round
and soul will be released


far into mother earth
I’ve secreted my pain,
now I’m blowing on the wind
hear me whispering your name


brushing past a memory
that shatter crystal hearts,
cradled in a culture
that’s growing like its art


nourishing the earth
as the circle turns around,
even as I lay here
at peace in sacred ground


as I morph back to mother
regather me once again,
make our lines connect
in the ink it will begin


Esperanza is my name
I flow within the green,
open up your minds
bring life to every dream

What Is Dad

Dad is a man of God.
Dad is a protector.  
Dad is a provider.
This is the way some people see dad.  But looking back on my life as dad I see that 
dad is much more. 
 
Dad is a booster seat and a comfortable chair.  
Dad is a warm blanket that holds you tight and makes you feel safe.  
Dad is a repair man who knows just the right way to put your toys together and fix 
them when they break.  
Dad is a comedian who can always make you laugh and instantly turns into a tickle 
monster just when you need one.  
Dad is a combination madd scientist and cook, whose experiments don’t always turn 
out right, but are always fun .  
Dad is an animal doctor who works miracles with a prayer and a bottle of 
peroxide.  
Dad is a source of life’s wisdom except when it comes to algebra.  
Dad is a captivated audience when you put on your big shows and he’s always your 
biggest fan.  
Dad is a quiet man when he’s thinking really hard.  
Dad is a loud man when he is sleeping real hard.
Dad is a friend who loves us and a teacher who guides us. 
But most of all… 
Dad is human and he makes mistakes and he understands that we make mistakes 
to.

Premium Member For This Year

Watch another sunrise in the early morn
Say another prayer for children yet unborn
Give my children hugs no matter what they did
Never stop remembering that I was once a kid
Be positive with each new day, never dwell upon the past
Enjoy each and every moment as if it were my last
Embrace the pain and chaos that is so prevalent these days
Look at it as a blessing and seek out better ways
Tomorrow may not be there so live just for today
Learn to keep my mouth shut if I have nothing nice to say
Eat a few more ice creams, drink a few more beers
Challenge myself daily to overcome my fears
Be a little kinder to the one’s who caused me pain
Spread a little sunshine, take long walks in the rain
Listen to more music, early rock and roll
Let me touch another’s heart, let the music touch my soul
Say a few more prayers for those who no longer sing
Perform random acts of kindness in the name of Christ The King.

Darkness

looking back at all the mistakes i've done.
i had a hatred heart was full of darkness.
i thought a life of mine can ever be saved.
or if i can push myself to the limits and make
it to the top.
i guess every where i go,Theirs a black cloud
that follow me.
torment and lies i said to myself.and the people
i hurt.
i really don't care,its a run gun situation.
scared to love someone,because of being hurt in
the past.
i was in love with the money but not fame
nickel's and dime packets.corners of light that shine
on a drug dealers eye.
the street of darkness a prayer on the street light
a gust of wind through air.
so watching what your doing.because the streets will
make turn into darkness.

Premium Member My Passionate Write

How I long to hold you 
Close in my arms
Press kisses to your cheek
And enfold you near to my heart

Run a warm bath 
And bath you tenderly
Pat you dry gently
Lie you down between 

Soft fluffy warm sheets
Lie close to your body
After you have been amply
Fed the food of life for tummy

To protect you from all strife
I can't go there or do those
Magical acts
Just my prayer today 

For God to send someone
In my place to see that 
These wonderful acts of humanity
Are carried out for you...

(The passion of my heart for all hurting, hungry, and neglected children of the world..)


Hypothetically Speaking Vol.Ii

Ya know like any other Christian I go thru
my hardships & troubles and I start to question
this tug of war, this spiritual warfare of right & wrong
it's the same old song wit me, I give my all 
and from the one I give my all too I don't
even get half. I wonder how many couples 
can say imma livin testimony to what you 
going thru thats actually happily married 
and made it last, I'm tryna hold fast wit prayer 
but this woman is nothing but a cake and with 
each layer follows more deceit not many good men
know their worth but I do, I be damned If I put
up wit a cheating spouse the game of cat & mouse 
been ova and now I gotta keep looking ova my shoulder 
because I can't trust her. How am I suppose to make it
thru da storm when I can't even stand on my own two
my outside image says I'm cool but on da inside 
there lies a man unconscious in a pool of blood from
his broken heart. What did I do wrong to deserve this fate.
I repent my sins, pray, stay honest, don't cheat, then I start
to think does this really have anything to do wit me. I mean
Job was one of God's beloved servants and he was taking 
thru da test, Lord God I'm not tryna say I can't handle it
I know marriage ain't easy but why is it this hard, I'm not
arguing with your will or decision making skills because 
despite it all everything works for the good of God

Premium Member An Answer To My Prayer

I was traveling all alone;
Hundreds of miles from my home;
I stopped in the hotel bar to have a beer and watch the game.

It was a town in the Midwest;
I was a little down I will confess;
The town was small and the hotel bar, just the same.

I sat between two girls and a guy;
They’d had enough to no longer be shy;
Within minutes we shook hands and shared our names.

They were really happy folks;
We told stories and many jokes;
Before we knew it, the bar’s one o’clock closing time came.

I charged the drinks to my room;
Said my room number aloud, I assume;
We said, “Good-bye, hope to see you sometime again.”

I was in my room, five minutes, no more,
When there was a light knocking at my door;
I thought, “To my wife, how this, could I explain.”

I quickly said me a prayer,
“Oh Lord, please don’t put temptation there.”
I am weak, a little tipsy and totally lame.

When my visitor I did espy,
It wasn’t one of the girls, it was the guy;
Not what I expected, but my prayer was answered just the same.

He was harmless enough,
But I’m not into that kind of stuff;
I sent him back to his room without inflicting any shame.

The next night at the same time,
I revisited the scene of the crime;
It was only me, the bartender and a baseball game.

I was telling her my story,
She winked and said, “Oh boy”,
“I knew those girls liked you, or Rosie’s not my name.”

But I said, “That’s just the thing,
“It was the one with a ding-a-ling”;
We laughed so hard, you’d think we were insane.

When I got home to my wife,
The best friend in my entire life;
I told my story, but she found it kind of lame.

The one thing that this taught me,
Is that there really is a divinity;
My continued monogamy, answered prayers share the blame.
