Premium Member Peanut Buster Parfait

oh delicious, thick, gooey, rich and layered hot fudge,
      And loads of peanuts on the bottom and layered to the top;
Finished with silky whipped cream and more fudge,
           Eight inches tall with mounds of soft vanilla ice-cream.

Oh the rich melting hot fudge mingling and dripping,
      So sweet and ridiculously good on a sizzling summer day;
A treat to-die-for, so heavenly yummy and decadent,
           Of course after, you may need a little nap to recover.

Oh and dream and dream of that cold velvet ice-cream,
      Divine, exquisite, delightful, the frostiness swirling within;
Such a vision, and a beautiful desire that must be fulfilled,
             I find myself saying, Peanut Buster Parfait, please.

Save Me

Save me 
Let it be said I lived
Let it be written that
I bleed 
Let it be known that 
I was who I was 
Let it be clear 
I stood for the sake 
Of humanity
So save me my place
In the heart of the living
Oh God

Save me 
Let it be made loud 
How I intend to survive
Let my survival be the prove 
Of my power 
When it need be known 
For my spirit is for eternity
It only wear the body you 
See 
And could wear another 
I fade away to the land 
Of the living
So save me my place
Oh God in the land of 
The living

Save me 
Save me a place 
In the land of the living
Oh God
Cos this world produce
Human that die just 
So soon like the flowers
They have a choice to live
But chose to die for nothing
They have a life 
But chose to mourn
Tell me what life is 
In this system we all live
In the name of civilization
We wallow in the dept of pains
And confusion
All to achieve a height
We die to leave as well 
I prefer to live 
I prefer to be alive 
As long there is no love 
In the world 
There is is life here 
And that is why 
My quest remain 
The same 
Save me a place in the land 
Of the living
The land of love 
Oh God

Premium Member A Lone Ranger Mask

I'm feeling rather silly today

Not that that's so unusual

But I'm feeling even more silly than usual

Read on and methinks

You'll understand exactly what I mean

Have thoughts of what it would be like

To be a ravishing female

Rather than this hunk of male virility

That I am now

Of course I would be an absolute stunner

With a body to die for

Must stop... I'm getting all squirmy

How about if I became the ruler

Of a large African country and signed into law

That sex is officially permitted

In public places as long as you're wearing

A Lone Ranger mask

Oops! Methinks I may be stepping over the line

Alright, how about becoming a

Standup comedian with my own late night show

Now that's more up my alley

Good thing Leno and Letterman

Decided to call it quits

Guess they knew I was about to take over!

Perhaps I should go lie down a spell

Politicians Tell Lies

To die for a politicians principles or a nations so called pride.
For a pendant on a flag pole Or some sort of nobel prize .   
Our leaders want your life's blood to guarantee the oil.
They will tell you its a rogue nation or a despot on the prowl. 
When in fact they want to fill their boots, with another nations oil.

You will be abandoned in a foreign graveyard and your family will be  far away. 
No benefits or help for them as your no use to politicians once you have passed away.
The politicians sign treaty's and become the best of friends.
Your children lost a father and you your best friend.
Let the politicians fight the battles and die in pointless wars.

you should just cuddle your children and kiss them on both their cheeks 
and then proceed to tell the politicians to kiss my bare @@@@ cheek.

Point Blank

I never leave my point blank
Point Blank!
At the point of a saber
Now we are at the point of danger
The point shatters
Friends stab me in the back with daggers and i stagger
Grab her,Nah! but I'll take a stab at it
Aw! I never set hearts on fire or dash hopes at all
I aspire to inspire you
Now desire is a furnace
burning inside a word of encouragement
So i pour on your heart soft pure words
Uplifting impressions that just may last forever
Or at least brighten your outlook on life
And rare is a one who can make your day better
No! I don't consider to compare myself  
to the choisest comparisons available
You know Stallions fight for the power
Men are no different
expect their words to be slippery as a serpents
Detect lip service 
as they profess their minds to be a place of higher learning
I crash and burn then
I don't attempt to reach the highest level of stupidity
Echos of Justice descend into frescoes of the Liberty bell 
Fractured as it is now
Snap^ Ice bergs rise up as you fall off the Ice shelf
Glaciers crack_-tons of ice grind into sluishes of Beautiful Love stories 
Harmony sings happiness restored
Thoughts shared in the stillness
We can hear each other
Zero seconds to a Sonic boom!
O days left
It's Autumn and the leaves fall now
Flowers fade and overhead 
shooting stars give their last light of Glory
And now new stars are born
to carry on, to die for a wish, to create hope
A voice coil expands
A tiger pounces on a lion
Two young cubs involved in a power struggle
I fall into Indian paintbrushes
I hear the petals crush doubts 
No doubt about it


Premium Member How Wonderful You Are

How truly  wonderful and awesome You are to all of us God, 
You shower me with all Your blessings and your  glowing Grace; 
As days and years of my life rushes  by quicker than any flashing light, 
I 'am just looking  forward till I get  to see your divine and sweet  face 

Everything around me just shows me that You really live here for us, 
And I don't care if  some of you choose  to deny that He really exists, 
You are  in my heart and my soul and always will be here close to me, 
I can see You  walking right beside me all the time, in my mind's eyes 

How wonderful  You are to me! my sweet and wonderful Lord and King! 
The whole world  sings You songs and praises of worship and glory, 
You created us in Your own image and made everything for us pure and good, 
But man dissobeyed and sinned and  brought evil and death in everything 

As  God saw all this happened and sin corrupting inside every man mortal's soul 
He sent down His only Son Jesus, to die for us on the cross and make us whole.

The Diva

We have an image of God, being the perfect fatherly creator who sits on 
 a golden throne and smiles benignly. I know, its just an image but I think
 he's got a white beard and a red cape decked in black tassels that smell
 like incense and myrrh. 
 Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Diva I live in heaven with 
 the angels of jubilee and of course, God. 
 My passion is to make chocolate to die for (?) pun intended . 
 Surprise!" I said to God, as he sampled the last of my dark empire winning chocolate congeler. He decided it was a Holy reunion of the palette and the tongue, so he named it tadda !!!! Godiva Chocolates. 

Given that he was God, I could not refuse him this one last request .
 He told me to go to earth and collect all his dying people. One Godiva chocolate per moribund soul. One, just one he said and then he laughed. So I took the spiral staircase, clothed myself with the sun, and Zoop ! 

 When you come to the end of your journey I will unwrap one for you. 
 Inside you'll find a message, "welcome, child " 
 Since I never make two the same you will get your very own. 
The devil dances on his coals each time a soul is sweetened and 
unarmed. But I don't give a fig cuz King David had that covered, long ago. 
 I'm not just any ordinary Diva, I am God's Diva and yes my chocolate is named "Godiva" after God and I. "Devilishly good heh ?" Amen !

Who Was He

Just who was He to give up all
To die for you and me?
You know that man who died upon
The Cross to set us free.

I heard He would talk to the crowds
For quite awhile you see.
I never found much time for Him
So tell me who was He?

So say "He's the Messiah Christ
Who came for you and me
To rescue those that have been lost"
I wonder could it be?

I heard some say,
"He is the way the truth the life
Was His promise from above
If we abide in Him
He'll truly give His love"

I thought they may be right, but then
They also might be wrong
Now look at Him just hanging there
Just look at that huge throng.

The one spoke out in mockery,
"He'd rise up in three days."
I knew if He did that
I'd want to know His ways.

Now I believe His words are true
For He will not betray
He's laid down death and is alive
He's here to light our way.

That's when my heart was broken
I asked what must I do?
Jesus I know now You are God
I want to come to You.

He answered," Just believe in Me
Have faith in Me you'll find,
If you abide in Me you'll be
My brother throughout time.

Premium Member They Followed the Star - Free Style

~They Followed The Star~
(Free Style)

On a very wonderful night
two-thousand years ago 
A beautiful baby boy was born
And in the sky a star did show

From Heaven above
He was sent here to earth
Sent by His Father to grace
Us all the way  with His birth

The Three Wise Men didn't know
But they just followed that star
The voice that told them to go
So they traveled for Him that far

Full of joy they worshiped Him
They offered Him gifts right to the brim
He came to die for us upon the cross
And with His blood for us paid the cost.

Between Love

Between love 



I come with birdsong 

 how  a breeze come with the wind 

A quiet heart 

To have understanding 

From everything that goes 

From all that is done 

What is light 

What is peace 

Making a flower blossoming 

Bringing Happiness at Home 

And all that is beautiful, will 

And all that is sad, disappears 

Disappearing pain 

Showing love 

Inside our hearts 

A greater understanding 

The world around us 

From everything that permeates 

What is light 

What is peace 

To get on our chest 

And in our being to be 

Just wake up 

Just try 

Exit pain 

Between love. 







When you feel a kind of distress or sad  do not let depression take care of your 
spirit, but remember that you are very close to the consolations of God with Jesus 
who loved you so much as to die for you, and him look with tenderness and 
paternal expression of love, close to you is the Holy Spirit, the true comforter ... with 
these thoughts I express my fervent desire that your heart will feel comforted. 



of ceizar i love so much my dear duncan
