~Your Thoughts~
(free verse)
Your thoughts can make you happy or sad
Your mind is a powerful weapon
You can use it for evil
Or to make with it extraordinary good deeds
All depends on you and the way
You think of things upon...
God gave us all not just a body, but a mind too
So we can think and do everyday choices
We can also meditate and ponder
Our problems and worries
God wants us to open our hearts and
Refill it with joy and every wonder
Our thoughts can be as a double-sword
Let's be careful of the things
You put in it, you see
Nurture your mind everyday
With good and happy thoughts too
And when you do this you'll be
Fine and feel much better too
Control your mind because
Everything start right up there
Sometimes your thoughts can
Outweight the wishes of your heart
And that's when we need to bring
Some balance right from the start
Your thoughts can make you happy or sad
Sometimes the heart wins
And that's when things work you see
So controlling our thoughts
Is a very good thing to do
It'll prepare us better to begin
All the things we plan to do.

She carried you with anxiety into her heavy womb,
and listened that gentle heartbeat...
much quiter than a drum's beat;
alone to hear your baby's voice in the silent room!
Love and sacrifice that's what the word, " Mother " means
to any small heart which is fully loved, but still weak;
and her warm hands never tiring of cuddling and touching...
will, indeed, protect you from many harms coming!
And didn't her ever-sweet eyes move away from your cosy crib,
to tend to those infant's needs with life-giving milk?
and before her lullaby ended, you rushed to sleep...
being watched over by the love' angel to weave your first dream!
Little darling, with eyes reflecting the color she herself owns,
how excited she gets when you stare at her and wiggle your toes!
Little darling, struggling to say the words , " I love you, mommy! "
your expression is enough to make her proud and happy!
Love and sacrifice are sacred words that outweight the cost,
and devotion and dedication are the bonds she can't break;
adorable one, she'll guide you down your dark path
with the wisdom's light, so that you may never be lost!
