and always pray
then give God the glory
for giving you another day
read the Basic Instructions
Before Leaving Earth
abide by those principles
God set forth first
I don't have all the answers,
just an educated guess
that if you do these things
you might get blessed
accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior
live your life and mimicking His behavior
follow those Commandments set in stone
seek forgiveness, repent and atone
that might not be the complete solution
but it's worth a try
ss to what it takes to be acceptable
In the Lord God's eyes

seek forgiveness, repent and atone
accept Jesus the Christ as your Lord and Savior
live your life mimicking His behavior

Invitation: Rick
Will you accept?
Not a challenge
Rather an invitation
Let us explore each other's thoughts
Are we oil and water?
Will we have a meeting of the minds?
They say men and women are not the same
Do we both not bleed?
Do we not see the same sky?
Smell the same scents?
Strive for the same things?
I extend out my hand
I beg you, please don't turn away
I am trusting you with a part of me
Let us dance
Twirl along the page
Response: Eileen
A part of me and more
I lay here at your door
Your proposal is sweet
Oh, let our minds now meet
An invitation to dance
Is such a golden chance
To let rhythm and rhyme
Keep us dancing in time
Gender does not matter
Perceptions we will shatter
When it comes to poetry
We are the same entity
With words we are in love
Touched by inspiration's dove
We exude beauty fair
As our poetic souls we bare
My words a gift to you
You know just what to do
Oil and water don't combine
Each is unique and sublime
But they mix when making bread
By which hungry minds are fed
A sweet blessing our words bring
we can make the heavens sing
Response: Rick
Like you, I am a lover of words
Looking for diamonds to capture light
Each word placed creates our delight
A symphony of colors shining bright
In the end I have a spirit of oil within
Long ago I permeated my lover's skin
She and I are now a we
From her comes the sweetness you see
You and I, opposite sides of similar coins
Separate, yet in subtle ways we are joined
Two coins jingle, create a sound
Tossed to the sky yet still Earth bound
As we share what's on our minds
Only heaven knows what treasure we will find
Final Response: Eileen
Treasures don't lie on the ground
Buried deep, they must be found
The one with a passionate heart
Will get all, not just a part
Opposites attract, I'm told
Our poems, treasures of gold
You have stories and I have mine
Poem gems, sparkle and shine
Your love speaks to you; mine to me
Our ballads of sweet harmony
The treasure is this, our dance
Unsure, we still took a chance
You took the lead, steps just right
This dance with you, a sheer delight.

My world on a piece of paper
Drawn and felt under the Moon's vesper
Simple life I rended
Under a tree I shredded
Early in life I staggered
Held only a pencil and a paper
Walking with shoes of a cobbler
Trudging many roads that bantered
At sixteen my life turned and spinned
In a world not mad, but splinted
At eighteen my world tuned in din
Like a song in a jukebox, worn and tinted
Years passed and my world stayed the same
To act and strive without shame
My thoughts that broke me in two
In a world that honed me to be true
The world is full of mystery
Stand up and walk over misery
God opens a way to relive a life
His name I praise all my life
Past will always be a history
History of any man with clogged stories
Stories that can break you or mend you
Stories of you, all but one in you
When the heart beats in pain
The poet comes to life
His words seem to rain
As tears flows sharp as knife
The raging storm complements his strife
Destroys all the limit
The poet with pain survive
Only then true pearls of poetry shine
The night with torments gain
The light shivers of afterlife
The poet with images strain
Troubles from all over arrive
Simple wishes a fire revive
The stars become weak and timid
Looks for a reason to be alive
Only then true pearls of poetry shine
The poet and his enchanting pain
Takes a sudden dive
When thoughts whirl, swirl and rain
And on the pages revive
His ideas for coherence strive
Emblazon the sky vivid
With powerful and forging drive
Only then true pearls of poetry shine
Poet, you must not deprive
This world so helpless and livid
Must let your rhymes thrive
Only then true pearls of poetry shine
You probably feel like the world is against you.
This letter is for that young woman from fifty years ago.
She was eighteen years old; that was me. I experienced those feelings back then, and as I look back through a reverse mirror of time, I realize that while the societal context may have changed, the emotions and struggles I faced remain relevant. They highlight enduring themes like resilience and identity.
Individual experiences are crucial; they illuminate broader issues and provide vital insights into the historical context that informs today’s discussions. Focusing on the past is essential for understanding present challenges—it doesn’t hinder progress; it fuels it. By sharing my narrative, I hope to empower young women and inspire them to recognize the connections between the past and the present as they forge their paths.
Forget about your looks; they will come in time. Look around you; it’s all about visualizing what Mother Nature can do. The potential is there, but you may struggle to understand how to harness it. I assure you that you can profit from the land. Those wild aloe stalks you see are just the beginning. In fifty years, they will be showcased in the beauty industry.
The Pure Aloe Vera Gel: Aloderma Pure Aloe Gel is a fast-acting moisturizer that helps restore the skin’s natural balance and hydration. It provides intense hydration for a plump and supple complexion. It’s lightweight, fast-absorbing, and suitable for all skin types.
By 2025, it will cost millions of dollars and be an essential ingredient in most facial products aimed at reversing the aging process. Unlike Rihanna Fenty's product line which focuses on a variety of products, this is about using all-natural ingredients from the land. This was us against the world, and here I am today, looking back in time to see your reaction as you read this letter.
People may laugh at you now, but you will strive to embody the beauty of a goddess. Even as I write this narrative letter to you, I still feel your pain. People back then were afraid of the unknown; we were not. We were wise and adventurous.
Be brave, be strong, and remember that you are sheltered under the blood of Jesus. Read Psalm 91 daily.
You know that feeling of loneliness
When you are in a crowd and all at once
You feel invisible
You try to ascertain where you fit in
Do you even belong in your circle of friends?
Are you just there to boost the numbers?
Did you ever belong in the 'in crowd?'
Why do you feel so disillusioned?
One thing you should never do
Is look for someone or something to complete you
You were never made to be the better half
Of someone else or something else
You should never strive to be the picture
Of someone's fantasy
Be the best you
Be the best complete you
And when you get to that point
All the parts that seem so out of place
Will be exactly where they are meant to be
So don't let the veneer of loneliness
Force you into a position
Where you look for company
Where you look for a place to belong
When all along "home" is
Where you love yourself...

There among the soul it lives
The heart of every human desire
Dream of emotions devouring us
Loving An Image of portrayed beauty
Loving one another for who we are
Grievance the eye's tell our story
Our lust for ambition we strive fulfill
Each soul made of the same being
Each darkness sharing same light
Same emotion we all occupy inside
The intensity of such joy in pleasure
Blood pump fearlessly through veins
Heart, loving an image of personality
Loving the being of a stranger unknown
But loving cause that's what we are
Painted echoes of our life's journey
The scars we hide so well behind the smile
Voices we listen there in silence
They talk as well as answer to our mind
Held in light of bondage forever
Starlight, loving of a ghostly soul
A spirit trapped in a still moment of time
When you stand with love and virtue
when you walk with loving songs
when you hold the hand of others
then you are a man my son
You don't need to bet and Gamble
you don't need to be a drunk
you don't need to be a fighter
to be a man my son
you can be a man a lover
working hard to feed his wife
you can be a careful lover
overcoming strife in life
You can stand and build a mountain
you can build a city wide
you can help to move a mountain
when you are a man my son
you can dance with love and laughter
you can sing and play life's games
you can feel joy within you
when you are a man my son
you can have the fear of failure
you can sometimes be afraid
you can fight the fear within you
and be a man my son
on days you will be stronger
the lions roar success
on days you will be weaker
but you're still a man my son
Granted there will come a day
that you must stand a fight
to protect your loving family
and be a man my son
granted we must budget
we must learn, to strive and save
we must learn to build a living
to be a man my son
but the greatest way of living
is not dominating strong
but with friendship, love and laughter
you are now a man my son
Say earth was made or collision in universe?
But what gave oxygen to such creation is form
A blade of grass grows from its surface like rock
Oxygen given that such a seed of life
Animal existence, the nature of mankind's birth
A righteous ruler of dictatorship freedom rings
A soul bound to love in itself a journey of survival
Humanity of Nature, dying breed of its own
To live is to breath parallel being of one's soul
Where darkness shines a light with no switch
Like a smile brings joy to see a sunrise
Be unto the world, not like world..God rules!
Be the soul portrayed before the faces of people
A person of integrated moral standing alone
Not the one running with pack but the different
One you think is odd just as He himself was call
Be of your heart the buried love carried there
Like a cloud brings peace so arises storm's crossing
Only a mountain be move in strength it takes
But in yourself your strength is only within
The one you strive to keep alive in the end
A soul of life, humanity of nature calling loud
Let me hear you Roar, King of your own domain
The spirit it lives darkness rising, a heart's beat
You’re gone now but I am forever proud
I go to your grave and speak out loud
I say I love you and I know you hear
The kind of man you were I will always revere
You set an example of right from wrong
I remember you all the time even when I write this song
From when I was young to when I grew older
You were there to help me brush my problems off my shoulder
Learn love laugh in life you immersed
Be strong with pride and put family first
You showed me how to strive to be my best right from the start
Live life well and follow my heart
I’ll miss you forever and let my soul be free
But always know that a piece of you resides within me
You were there for me in every way
The best dad there was so Happy Fathers day
