Giving
Miracle Man

A concept foreign to most,
is giving without expecting something in return.
While many embrace the concept of giving,
not all are enthused by the idea of payment in kind,
or paying it forward.
If I show you love in actions
Give of you those things you need
If in showing love in action wanting nothing in return
In deed
NO payment in kind
No physical demands
Just honest, agape love
Just honesty
No repercussions
Just honest assurances
To God be the glory
Always

~If I were President-
I'd have ALL political houses term limits
Stop voting Congress/Senate pay raises
have minimum wage rise yearly by 25 cents
If I were President-
There'd be mandated recycling with pay
a non-changing Moral Code true protection under the law
You wouldn't be doubled-tax
You wouldn't be shot while stopped, walking, while being non White?
If I were President-
You wouldn't be homeless, hungry, have not
Or detained because you weren't birth here
If I were President I would make sure
We would strive for a cure
If I were President-
To clean up our air money isn't everything
Payment in kind paying all debts in fine
Join in community, spiritual, agape love
Truth in speech for everyone No, REALLY
Bring back We All community and family raise and teach our children
Open and honestly and instead of 4 to 8 years as President
Ill make it only a max of 4 years tops
No, REALLY- if I were President

Striking a Balance
Only 5% of the people like their jobs and live to work,
while the other 95% hate their jobs and work to live.

I consider myself to be a likable person,
otherwise I wouldn't enjoy my own company.

God, Sees What I Don't
The areas of my life where I have expertise,
God has chosen not to involve me.

Backsliders are like pigs; no sooner does God clean them up,
until they return to their wallow.

While all may seek forgiveness,
not all are enthused by the idea of payment in kind.

An excuse seeks to exonerate by justification,
reason provides an intellectual basis for the action in question.

As a kid, I thought Hickory trees,
were so named for the hickory switch.

Child abuse inflicts wounds that sutures cannot close.

Thoughts on Words
Written: by Tom Wright

Words, once spoken, can’t be retained,
So be unhurried in opinions you express.
To acerbic words, you’re forever chained,
Until remorse for using, you’ll confess.
While all may seek forgiveness
Not all are enthused by the idea of payment in kind

dearest Eve... please forgive...
your poem... delectable...
your chocolates... delicious...
if i wasn't diabetic...
the lot I would of finished...
so i'll paint you a picture...
call it payment in kind...
with words I keep...
for special occasions...
like saying sorry...
for my guilty pleasure
hoping you'll be kindness...
personified...
