For today’s blessing I’d like to re-introduce
to you the words and the wisdom of…Dr. Seuss.
May we never be too old,
to wacky
to wild
to pick up a book
and read to a child.
Fire
Dramatic much? One would think you were
the flame of Passion.
Shall I re-introduce you so that you can make
your entrance again?!
In your flashy clothes, that you
wisk down your runway, whoosh.
Are you gonna tell it once more, how the fuel feeds.
Your ego, burnt offerings consuming everything.
Burning the midnight oil,
by tripping the light-fantastic.
Shining. Me! I am the quest you seek and also the Bard
that shines light on the tail, the tale and your tailor.
Don't throw a hissy if you burn in the pit, out of prides-
travails.
Although the lines have blurred.
(Leos. Don't stare too long or hard.)
(You may get blinded by a dance of the seven veils)
( I love Leos. My Momma was a Leo, my main pride)

Please forgive me
If I committed a sin
The devil was calling my name
And he pulled me in
I tried my best to stop him
But I couldn’t get away
Temptation got the best of me
And I forgot what you had to say
Guide me back to the right path
Make me see clear
It was all the devil’s fault
And I couldn’t get passed my fear
I ate the forbidden fruit
And I admit the taste was great
It took awhile for me to understand
I would be going to hell at this rate
I am sorry that I failed your test
And it was an epic fail
I knew it was wrong but it felt right
But I don’t want to end up in hell
You sacrificed your life for me
And I feel that I let you down
But let my rights outweigh my wrongs
When judgment day comes around
Continue to answer my prayers
And please continue to hear my cries
Allow me to repent to you daily
And please help me open my eyes
The bible says you are a forgiving God
And I believe that’s true
Just give me a second chance
To re introduce myself to you

A woman's touch should accentuate a man.
Allowing him to rightfully wear the pants.
Her touch should boost every bit of confidence.
Let him take the lead, as should, all good men.
That's not quite the society we live in today.
There's so much competition on who has the say.
A woman's touch should compliment a man.
Piggy-back his decisions like no other can.
Its how relationships last, and marriages thrive for years.
Strengthening the bond that gives stability to kids.
Before moving forward in obtaining God's love.
We must re-introduce ourselves to a woman's touch.
