I Jumped the Gun

I jumped the gun and got shot in the ass, A life lesson I guess I didn't pass.
No longer in gods good graces, I must play my hand forbidden any aces.

Living every moment 
Listening to nature
Laughing when feeling joy
Learning a life lesson
Lifting up the weary
Limiting our mistakes
Loving our Creator

I Can, But Should I

I cried on a pale tree within my reach
Anguish flowed with a life lesson to teach
Though not a swinger
Here is the zinger
I can truly say I bawled on a beech!

Premium Member A Life Lesson

I've learned one thing in life that I'd like to share with the hope that you'll never forget.
There's probably no sadder an emotion to experience than the emotion known as regret.
Form: Rhyme

Greed

Those who wish for everything, discover nothing.
Those who seek the most find the least.  
Those who desire recognition learn ignorance. 

Those who pursue solidarity obtain peace.

The Wisdom Of Experience

God experience us things with wisdom
Everything has a reason
Everything has a purpose
Something comes as a blessing
Some came as a life lesson
Nothing to regret all makes us a good person.

Premium Member another life lesson

what is wriggling under my bare foot?
oh goodie a wasp
hooray hooray
in the bedroom on my carpeting
lovely
I used a piece of cardboard and flipped it outside onto the porch
my puppy went after it
another life lesson for him

Premium Member IMPORTANT LIFE LESSON

May we be blessed to understand
one of the most important lessons of life
that is perhaps the farthest reaching:

How as children or parents 
we should never stop our learning
because life…
will never stop its teaching.

Premium Member But Plumbers Cost So Much

Sump pump is broken
Constant water run
Plumbers cost money
Homeowner is sad
Waits a bit too long

The basement floods
Ruins couches
Bedding thrown out
Salvage nothing

Expensive
Life lesson
Plumber comes

Nasty

Teen troubles

Being a teen
Is no simple stint
A time in our lives
We’re twisted and bent

An era of push
A decade of pull
A capsule of years
A life lesson tool

Period of growth
To mold who we’ll be
One day we’ll look back
And then we will see

Premium Member LESSON FROM THE LAKE

May we be blessed every moment we’re awake
to take a little life lesson from our friend the lake….

When the lake was asked if one day she’d like to be an ocean
She said, “Oh no…for heaven’s sake….
Why would I ever want to be an ocean
when I am happy being a lake.

Reckless

Yes I'm a bit reckless- 

Vocally aggressive, 

But it's never been my aim to seem impressive; 

I have enough thoughts of my own, 

And honestly-that's probably-
my life lesson;

To forever keep them guessing- 

That's why I'm not stressing.


Instead I'm confessing; 

But Isn't that refreshing?

Premium Member Full Stop

full stop,
you give respect,
you get it back, two-fold.
a life lesson to keep in mind.
spread good karma into the universe,
otherwise encounter the bad.
quit keeping up and time...
leaves you behind,
full stop.

In a ray of sunshine...
I see your reflection...
Affecting my every move...
My every tought & life lesson...
Was the present gift you left behind...
Yesterday, you were the one  that...
Held my hand & taught me

-unfinished-
my @ another lifetime i will finish this one, but for the mean time and in between ryhmes, 
this is all for now...
