Down deep in Dixie
We have long heeded his call
(And still pay the price)

There was a young man named McAvity
Who resented that old Law of Gravity
He heeded a rumor 
That values good humor
And now he is lifted by Levity....

A Circular Affair With Care

Off my feet will  eventually have dried,
God had helped me ond on Him relied;
Moisture needed,
So God I heeded;
Wanted feet wet and water He supplied.

Harsh winds, salt spray
familiar weight of bloodstained sabre 
hanging in a pilfered scabbard
one voice among the mayhem heeded
FULL SAIL - CAPTURE THE WIND
LEST WE BE O'ER TAKEN
BEWARE THE SHOALS!

A heatwave doth cometh, SPF 30 is needed
But there's nothing absolute, caution should be heeded
Cover up, take breaks now and then
A sensible approach pays off in the end
You won't resemble a lobster waiting to be eaten...

LOVE RIDDEN
I SWALLOW
MY DIGNITY
FADE INTO THE CORNER
MAKE MY WAY
AROUND THE CIRCLE
A CAROUSEL OF REGRETS
FACE THE MUSIC
I'M BLINDED
BY YOUR CHARM
IN LOVE WITH LOVE
HOPEFUL
BUT I'VE HEEDED NOTHING
LOST IN YOUR EYES
I FELL INTO THE DEEP END....

Finish what you start
    Take these words to heart
  If you're doing what is needed
    This advice should sure be heeded

  BUT when YOU'RE doing something AWFUL
    MURDEROUS, UNLAWFUL 
  Then, HALT, STOP, QUIT it
    When you're wrong, admit it...

The world is wicked
Calling my heart weak
Laying bricks of gold
Near my crossed feet
No longer do I know
The knowledge that’s needed
To reach up and grow
Warnings properly heeded
The world is quite heartless
Leaving me old and restless

That that is, is as is, here now
No striving is needed
Resisting not, simply allow
Love pulsations heeded

As we gently align
Grazed by currents divine
Love for love’s touch does pine

Peaked bliss fizz
That that is

Mood elevators are needed
Exhuming pain and grief
When throb of love by heart’s heeded
Granting our soul relief

Pause awhile free from guile
Let heart’s innocence smile
Mile by mile, mile by mile

Ego sedators 
Mood elevators

To trust one’s word, 
      And that alone, 
   Is gambling entire riches; 
For a thin line
      Does separate
   Having faith and foolishness.
To share one’s self, 
      Enough, not wholly, 
   Is a word for the wise; 
Easily learned
      But not heeded—
   Having faith is being blind....

In vain you uplift,
believing your own deceit.
No matter if you're not swift.
Time shall allow you to accomplish feat.

Now, curled up swaying,
while unbelieving demented whispers roll,
memento clutched so tight it's maiming,
He who heeded fool words of comfort sits and faces the toll.

Physical mental health
Making choice decisions

Life issues stealth
Recommendations carefully heeded
Maintain ideal wealth

Necessities well exceeded
Organized required supervisions
Achieved goals succeeded...

If we believe in free will,
Why then do we believe that all prophesies must come true,
Might some prophesies actually be warnings, 
We have not heeded, in time to prevent many more mourning's.

Something to think about,
Before we shout,
Kill, kill, kill,
Leaving us all,
With a bill,
That will make us ill, ill ill....

I crept along, not very fast
and wished I'd heeded the newscast
on windstorm.

It was impossible to see
through all the whirling, thick, debris
from windblast.

I feared I'd bring myself disgrace
by reaching destination place
so windblown.

Straighten Out Our Mess

What we will need to straighten out our mess,
Is always God's love along with graciousness;
We had heeded,
Rules we needed;
Glad all of us with His Holy Son He did bless.

Today I’m thankful for the Ojibwa…
whose simple prayer…this simple verse
Could, if heeded by all of us
change the destiny of our universe…

For they know, as I wish we knew,
how everyone is our sister and our brother
And if we were all taught love, compassion and honor
we have a chance not only to heal the Earth
but also…to heal each other.

Something over the horizon
It just keeps me going
He stands beside me in my unbelief and my beliefs
He watches over me in my sleep
Before I awaken dreams intact
Look around me you got my back
As I stand tall, in from of this wall
I've heeded my Savior beck and call
Yes! something over the horizon
Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior

A spirited moon
   'neath furtive glances,
      anguished mid despair
looked upon hushed
  entangled constellations 
      and heeded a warning,
for he knew well of lavishing
    recherché intricacies,
mattered naught how exquisite,
  nothing lasting could come
    of liaisons's effusive grandeur,
       betwixt clandestine stargazers...

As light of Self encased in organic form,
keeping this remembrance always in focus,
we’re poised in stillness in each and every storm,
expanding our heart along the love locus.
Save this awareness no practice is needed,
for when love as the voice of God is heeded,
all doings in our life are done by His hand,
which in surrender, soul does so understand....

My dear lovely darling, I write to you now
Things are not as they were somehow
So many good things we had before
And now they are not there any more
I tried to explain how I felt today
But what I said was not heeded no way
Nothing is more important to me
Than you my darling can’t you see
No matter what I may say or do
I know that I will always love you...
