When everything
Falls in place for you
When you feel like, you're on top the world
Mind your actions
Even when you're highest
Live with humility, but don't be timid
Don't act like you own the world, because it revolves.
What goes up
Must surely come down
The law of gravity
Nothing blooms forever
The law of nature
Even when you know a lot
Act like you know nothing, but be bold
As season pass by, things and people change.
As written in the Bible
Matthew 20:16
The first shall be the last
And the last the first
The law of reversal
Pay attention, so you don't regret it.

Wheels turn
The circle of completion
always comes around....
From birth
To death
From the first tear
To last sigh
We forge onward
In hopes to find.....
For in a mere inkling of existence..
Of all the silent moments
Pondering
Retracing
Building and tearing down
Is it not the spirit we strive to understand
As I walk distant memories
Hoping to fulfill thoughts lingering in the mind
Pushing onward
Editing
Placing all my P's and Q's in line
I come to find
Of love
A masterpiece
Of faith
A new lease
Of hope
A warm embrace
As days so quickly turn
From light to a night time moon
I sit on the rivers edge
Singing a surreal song
As the circle of life revolves

I took a good look
In the mirror yesterday
While I gazed into the eyes
Of my younger self
With delight, seeing my face
Filled with fire, passion, and
Hunger again, at first glance
I was ready to take on the world
That imagine suddenly changed
Into my grandma's
Whose face and body
Showed the battle lines of life

We all know that the world revolves around money.
After all money has been made a tool that we need in order to survive.
I would rather be left homeless, cloth-less & food-less.
Then to let another control me with the site of money.
If that is all you have to offer, to justify my worth.
Then you can't offer me anything.

drowning
in seas of great debt
greater mistakes
the greatest regret
not stepping beyond such shallow waters
i might have been safe
safer
out there in the open sea
not drowning
not gasping for air
and not drowning
not begging and pleading for his life and for mine
and not drowning

Outside stars sparkle while daffodils await the morning sun.
Crickets sing their cheery song hoping for a night of fun.
Roosters and hens sleep hidden, snuggled in branches of trees.
Owls are awake, looking around, feathers ruffled in the breeze.
Inside, folks are fast asleep without a sound or a peep.
The sun is on the other side, warming the shepherds’ sheep.
Around the world people love and hate, it happens here and there.
Let us turn our hearts to peace; show tolerance everywhere.
Let us set aside our greed and use only what we need.
Let replenishment be man’s rule of thumb…please, God speed-
Value thrives in the soul of a man, not in what he “owns”.
Wisdom holds the key to love and to the Creator’s throne.
The heavens shine a warming glow; it does not hesitate.
Likewise let us show forth love and bring earth’s peaceful state.
Before the daffodils look up, let us end hate’s bitter cup.
Love one another around the world…God’s creatures…waking up.
When the night sky sparkles each star as earth revolves around.
May wisdom fill the heart of men and peace on earth abound.

The world revolves around hopes
Without room for dopes
Gotta give yourself power
jot down your notes
Take your ideas
But it may take years
The pay off is great
Like you wouldn't believe
Gotta roll up your sleeves
Just follow your needs
Aknowledge determination is success
you gotta feel your best
To take on the rest
follow your dreams
And never give up
See the wrong but do the right
These are some keys to win the fight
But if you wanna use hands there's a brain in mine
Cause there aint no fist that's stronger then a mind
Without mind power your ready for elimination
Like I explained your key is determination
