~POINT THE FINGER AT YOUR CHEST~
What have you done lately,
For your community?
Have you gone out and helped the poor?
Or are you, just a selfish, vain boor?
You want a change in your nation?
It's up to you to make a difference, not be
simply, "a mouth sensation!"
We should rally great citizen troops.
I am tried of blaming political nincompoops.
Don't worry, I do write poems about leaders, many!
But who responds to political spoofs?
Very, rare courageous few, if any.
We all, our arses we want cowardly covered.
So political poets, like me, get on a hit
list and are smothered!
But I don't care, but don't you see?
When you smother me, you smother thee?
So phenomenal is this inane drive to be popular here.
All poetical love, like useless junk in a car, slammed into
the rear!

PLEASE
(Verse 1)
Lets put on a track
and let it play
Listen to what the beat say(say)

Listen to the volume it speaks (speaks)
Go beyond the words
Get in your feelings(feelings)
Put your heart into this dealing(dealing)

Different genres lets choose it(choose it
Whatever you do don't stop the music(music)
(Chorus)

Its up to you so choose it
But please don't stop tbe music
(Verse 2)
Look at message
Is it clear
The music can they really hear(hear)
Or is it just a sound
Meanings of words no longer around
Now days all they take about is shooting taking other place
Even got a song out about getting a guy on the weekend
Its sad
The value of relationships have went bad
Its up to what you listen too
Some of it will have you
To change
and some will have you remain
Chorus)

But please don't stop the music
Bridge:Tell me you will
Tell me you can
Tell me you'll be more than
More than the music says
Or portrays , music still should be uplifting and nice today old school music should have value and still be displayed ( Repeat once)
Chorus)
listen to the song
Feel the words
Dont base it off
What you heard(the beat)
Now days music sounds the same
lets make a difference be the change
Choose your words wisely
Others are listening
Open up your eyes pay attention
Its up to you so choose it
But please don't stop the music
Repeat until chorus fades

It's been raining for more than twenty-four hours
But the rain can never dampen my spirits
The sun is shining brightly in my soul
I do not have special abilities
I just think “positive”
Anyone can do it
Even you
So give it a try
What d'ya have to lose
This resembles an hour glass
And that my dear friends is what life is
When the sands of time run out, think back
Did you make a difference in someone else's life
Or was I selfish and thought only of what's good for me
Hope I can say I left earth a better place than when I arrived
THINK POSITIVE!!!

Can we manage to feel concern and compassion for those we meet on any given day?
Those who are trying to manifest life's punches, the forgotten lambs who have wondered astray.
Some people practice wearing a brave face while on the inside they are falling apart.
Can we show concern for what happens to them?
Can we offer them a piece of our hearts?
Jesus dealt with the diseased and destitue, the ones society was afraid to touch,
the overlooked, the outcasts and the ones who needed his kindness so much.
We can attempt to make a difference if it's our lord we are hoping to please.
We can search out the lonely and hurting. We can do it for the least of these.
The morning kept whispering in my ears, telling me that I have nothing to fear, the moment passes quickly and I am halfway through but I have to go shopping for another pair of shoe, the
Prices are high but I know that I can fulfill that mission waiting
At the back of the sky, it feels like I just got here but the day is
Already done but the battle is not yet and I would like to compose a new song, be patient with me for I know that you are waiting for me.
One day fades into another and I still have not satisfied that hunger, I have several missions to complete but the universe is rocking at my feet; everyone is waiting there but I am dilly dallying over here; everyone is nice to me and I have gotten
Everything that I need but the one that is draining my pocket
Is bothering me. I have to get there for I have something significant to share a few hours later will not make a difference
For when the heaven meet with the sky the cold war will die.
Whichever way it goes, I am convince that this is the best way to go, I will use one stone to kill fours birds and spend an extra day to chase the devil ; the universe cannot sings unless he joins
The choir and sings the same hymn, I will think about it for a while and wait for the universe to comply. I will continue my route and carry an extra pair of shoes and when I am done with
That, I will go directly to the red square and sit wth them in the golden chair. “You are welcome my dear”, a silent voice whispers.
Time flies and the delegation is standing by, add the extra pair of to the schedule and take me to the schools so that I can learn the golden rule, the universe is waiting for me and I have to set my spirit free, I must get this burden off my head so that the people can be fed, please get me there on time so that so thatI can meet with stubborn minds and solve the problems of the sea and make some people happy. Time Flies!
Time And Space
In the class rooms from the very first grade,
we played with trucks and toys in the sand box
We learned side by side to read, write, and do math
At recess, we took to the swings and merry go rounds
We were just boys, so far removed from becoming men
For a long while, it was simply about friendships and sports
At seventeen, separation began as I set sail in search of my new world
Years passed and opportunities knocked; the space between us stretched
No one told me how time and space would separate our lives
Some of us went North, searching for a better life in The Windy City
There were a few who stayed close to home, in their familiar South.
Dreaming of sweet fruits, some went East toward The Big Apple.
And me? I went every direction until settling West, where eagles nest.
No one told me how time and space would separate our lives.
From 2000 miles away, I have sadly gone to too many funerals.
Does knowing the ‘pain of distance’ make a difference? Only God knows.
From a distance, I have gladly returned for far too few family reunions.
For nearly forty years, from The Golden State, I have visited family and friends.
But I have been partitioned from friends, unseen since early childhood.
No one told me how time and space would separate our lives.

Awaken me, Lord.
Open my ears that I may hear the voices,
Of those wo cry out for help.
Let me not be deaf to their pleas,
Lest they perish, because I would not hear.
Awaken me, Lord,
That I might make a difference.
Open my eyes that I may see those who suffer.
Let me not be blind to their needs,
Lest they perish because I would not see.
Awaken me, Lord.
Clear my mind that I may undersrtand the plight,
Of those who cannot help themselves.
Let me not be ignorant in my comfort,
Lest they perish because I was thoughtless.
Awaken me, Lord.
Open my heart that I may truly feel,
For all who suffer and have need.
Let me not be cold and unfeeling,
Lest they perish because I would not care.
Awaken me, Lord.
Loose my hands that I may reach out,
To those for whom You have suffered and died.
Let me not be lazy, or fearful of what others might think,
Lest they perish because I would not reach out.
Amen
Once when I was out walking I heard a dog screaming in agony begging to be let inside out of the cold. I just laughed to myself saying to myself that the dog was acting like she was dying out there. I paid her no mind sense the dog wasn't mine.
Later when I passed by again all was quiet. I figured the owner had let her in.
The owner wasn't home.
They went to school and to work forgetting the dog was still outside.
She Froze To Death And I Could Have Helped Her If Only I Had Cared Enough To JUST GO CHECK IT OUT BUT I FEARED WHAT THE OWNERS WOULD THINK OF ME STICKING MY NOSE IN WHERE IT DIDN'T BELONG.
Just because it's an animal that doesn't mean they don't matter or "don't feel pain like we do". Pain is pain and it HURTS. They feel it like we do they just can't tell us because they can't speak our language but they speak in every other way if we will just listen.
That dog died in agony because I didn't listen and her owners FORGOT ABOUT HER.
Stop! The violent protests and leave peaceful protesters out to make a difference strictly along. Whether you are in law enforcement or the national guard. You need to pray for peaceful solutions! But if all you want to do is assault police officers. Or if protesters burn down business and destroy personal and real property. If you want to incite rioting and violence! You need to be apprehended! I am sick and tired of racist police officers using African American males, Hispanic, and Native American males as "target practice" or unlawful harassment! Black Lives Matter! Today the city of Houston is holding memorial ceremonies for George Floyd. They firmly believe the time has come for closure and for our nation to move forward.
I am sorry about what happened to George Boyd and other minority groups! But letting your explosive anger erupted like a volcano! That Minnesota police officer committed nineteen years of similar acts of racism and violence. He just happened to get caught in the act! He never should have been admitted to the police academy in the first place! The other officers just stood there and watched! It was a national tragedy! In London England, Black Lives Matter are conducting peaceful protests in solidarity with the United States!
Some groups will use any excuse to riot! Some police officers will use any excuse to commit acts of violence! I firmly believe in peaceful protests! Unfortunately, they often end up in tragedy! One bad reaction by one or more groups leads to retaliation by the opposition! Resulting only escalating violence! The president wants to call out the United States military. And it will happen unless senseless acts of violence come to an abrupt ending! The Beatles once sang, "come together right now over me." "Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me."
Stop! The senseless acts of violence! Private citizens even in communities such as Snohomish Washington! Are arming themselves, and standing outside of the business to protect them. They are citizens vigilantes. They want to stop looters and vandals in their tracks! In the days of the old west, there used to lynch mobs! We do not want the bad old days back again!
Love as always,

I am just like you,
I can take the things I do.
And learn from them the best I can,
Make a difference with who I am.
You might be slow and I might be fast,
We don’t need to concentrate who is first or last.
You might be smart and I may be not,
So who cares about that we still have a lot.
Sometimes when we talk I don’t look in your eyes,
I might just forget so don’t be surprised.
If I don’t speak at all please try to wait,
I find it hard especially on a date.
It’s hard to sit still when your brain is telling you not to,
I start moving around it's just what I do.
There’s a lot to say about touch,
Sometimes even my clothes feel too much.
If I think the light is shining too bright,
Or even if the noise isn’t right.
If it smells awful and tastes real bad,
And anything touching makes my head mad.
It’s a terrible time for you and me,
But it passes so quickly and soon we will see.
That it’s over and done with and better at last,
It was just a quick moment now gone in the past.
Someday I hope I find the key,
To find the missing piece hidden deep within me.

See those stars in the heavens above
Feel the night close around you
Child who never felt a mother's love
Don't let the anger surround you
Everything seems beyond your reach
Failure in whatever you try
Hypocrisy in all they teach
Sometimes you just want to die
Life has never been kind nor fair
So many paths to choose
Doesn't seem to make a difference
No matter what you lose
You need to focus on all that's right
And the positives in your life
Make it through another night
Go beyond the hurt and strife
You have so much to offer the world
Hidden behind the pain
Feeling that your souls been hurled
Into the pouring rain
Rise above the anger and rage
Never looking behind you
Like a final scene on life's stage
Let the power of love remind you
