Short In Harms Way Poems

The actions of a few have put the world in harms way
"You were our favorite mistake"
is what the hypocritical Christians say
when disowning their own children
when they turned out to be gay....

unspeakable love
met me at the door everyday
scratching with his paws
he never missed aday

unspeakable love
is very very shy
love made in the heart
only thorugh the eye's

unspeakable love
comes after a lot of pain
forgetting the pain of labour
and giving a baby a name

unspeakable love
takes a sacrifice
putting self in harms way
giving up a life

Animals are basic, they give unconditional love, and in return, only ask for Safeharbor and food, using meows rubs, and barks. Cats who are independent, teach us to honor their boundaries, maybe we will learn to do as much to humankind? Dogs, territorial and fierce,Whether small or large, willing to give their lives without thought. Only comparison I know,Is the veterans put in harms way, their unit now their family....

It must be hard to be a clown.
When all day long you're chased around.
Those great big bull's whose attention you need.
If the cowboys caught up and can't be freed.
Ther're putting their own lives in harms way.
So the cowboy's may ride another day.
The rodeo clown must have nerves of steal.
Cuz the job their doing is a really big deal.
If they don't do their job then things can go wrong.
And the life of a cowboy just might be gone.

If we could be hero's,
On one given day,
Who would you pray for,
And who would you save...?
How could you choose,
Just who to forgive,
When life's still deciding,
The ones to let live...
A hero is someone,
Who disregards life,
Not that of others,
So they sacrifice....
Who knowingly willingly,
Comes in harms way,
Just so another,
Can live one more day...
If ever a time came,
And I got the call,
I'm saving the life of one,
Who'd save us all...

Listen to your instincts

When things start
getting really bad

And your whole world 
seems like it has been 
turned upside down

And it is literally 
driving you mad

Because nothing 
seems to be 
going your way 

Maybe this is a sign
that is telling you

That it is time 
for you 
to go on a journey

So that you can move away

To a place where you can 
seek sanctuary and safety 

So that you no longer 
have to be in harms way

the steady hand of concerned people
gifted folk who have studied
how to treat and cure

they labor to remedy the
sickness
they quarantine, isolate and explore.
they in harms way are
puzzled
then break through
guides their path
comparison studies the researcher
to guide them down
the right path
might they prayers of every releigon
stop to thank God
for these women and men
they ajust and readjust 
to help many
so we might stand to labor again...

As the sun goes down,
in a world far away,
brave men, and women,
are in harms way.
They were sent,
they couldn't back down,
this is their job,
no braver can be found.
I want to thank you,
for taking that stand,
our proud, and brave,
fighting for anothers land.
May God give you comfort,
and hold you so near,
as you help those in need,
chase away all their fears.
I think you are wonderful,
and I want you to know,
God bless our soldiers,
I love you all so.

Symptomatic folly,
the tail now wags the dog

Whose bark, it whimper’s drolly,
all teeth removed and gone

Reacting, never acting,
new victims every day

All courage has retracted
—the future in harms way

Jailed speech unto the warden,
mere words may not contend

Our patriotic burden,
its truth we must defend

With cowards grabbing power,
a swamp that we must cross

Lies from ivory towers
—to fell at any cost
