William Henry Gates

William Henry Gates 
Never lifted weights
He spent his time in the loft 
inventing a thing called Microsoft

At gates,

Not in safe,

In safe!

Give up my hat, toupee, and comb

I wish I could cry.
Let my feelings out and be gone.
I'm drowning in my silence.

Locked Gates

If your voice can make
God’s deaf ears hear
If your face can make
God’s blind eyes see
Then maybe he can help you
Where he couldn’t help me

Bill Gates and Me

Bill Gates may be a little richer,
   so what! but I'm a better writer!
    although a few billions poorer,
     I can't ask for anything better.

what's behind my door?
until you knock
loud enough for me to hear

The Gates of Heaven

Those beautiful towers on Avon gorge,
gorgeous and tall like Heavens doors,
proud above the cloud always visible,
please guide me home the day I fall.

Through the Gates of Heaven

Painting words
Against the crest of clouds
Resonating deep tones,
Blue shades and bold colors
Stretching their
Red tamborines
Through the gates of heaven

Premium Member The Gates of Heaven

The gates of heaven are:
 
Extremely narrow for a wicked soul 

But 

Immensely wide for a virtuous one!

I Sincerely Admire By Actions Bill Gates

I sincerely admire by actions Bill Gates,
He gave a lot of money to  different states.
I swore, that I would do the same in my will !
(In case, if I get rich, like above Bill.)

     At the gates of opportunity,
     she took a deep breath
        could have walked right in

     At the gates of despair
     she uttered a plaintive cry 
        left there to die

Premium Member Enemy At the Gates

sent to the slaughter
caught between levels of hell...
neither one he chose

he lay amidst death
destiny arrived on time
alive…it chose him

After making coffee when you wake You put it in the fridge then realize your mistake We've all done it, be honest It's just some silly test Or if you've passed through the Pearly Gates

Seal the gates

They're coming by the thousands,
here to suck your blood,
here to take a bite,
in a gluttonous biblical flood.

Hold firm and squirm,
don't be late,
or wait,
hold the gates,
then accept your fate.
