When Indecision
Is with you,
Let Patience,
Out weigh the thought.
The time you find,
You can’t make up your mind,
Then decision should
Be made not!

If I could not hear
And if I could not see
I’d be in deep dark misery
If I was alone
And I could not speak
My life would become very weak
I would feel a drift
Way out in space
And only Mother Nature could see my face
But these things
I am not
And I thank the Lord for the things I’ve got

Rhyme
When he cries a tear
He sheds a pain,
A tear of inner
Emotional strain.
A hurt with-in
That speaks out loud,
To touch the feeling
Of a physical cloud.
The pain sets in
And crawls inside,
There’s no escaping
It cannot hide.
The inner emotion
Should be expressed,
The tears of joy
Or the cries of sadness.

Lyric
I guess a loser
Will never win
And even a right
Finds a wrong again
If your chin is up
When things fall down
You’re still alone
Even with people around
I’ve found that a gain
Finds only a loss
And if you’re on top
You still have a boss
But if your mistakes are
Lessons learned
Then doing a wrong
Can be a right concern

I love to read a poem,
To me it’s simply great!
It’s not like reading a story,
It’s a much more higher rate.
You can really get the meaning,
Out of a short little verse,
And along with the rhyming,
It’s got a beat of course.
No matter how long it is,
Or even if it’s small,
I’ll always love to read a poem,
More than anything of all!

Lyric
Everyone is a poet inside
Everyone needs a place to hide
A place where you can be alone
Where no one else will ever roam
Within your mind where the poet lies
A rhyme or verse which implies
You’ve found that place within your soul
Where no one else will ever go
Your hiding place is called a thought
A form of creation that you have caught

Zora Neal saw that Their Eyes Were Watching God, when
Toni Morrison heard The Song of Solomon, and
James Baldwin Told It on the Mountain, while
W.E.B. DuBois embraced The Souls of Black Folks
Richard Wright was a Black Boy, that’s why
Dr. Maya Angelo Knew Why the Caged Bird Sang
Iyana Vanzant found Peace Within Pieces, when
Lorraine Hansberry ate a Raisin in the Sun, while
Terry McMillian was Waiting to Exhale

Didactic
What is the purpose
In this life
To experience love
Or series of strife
Are we to learn
To be happy alone
In search of one’s self
Until it is known
Is it to teach
Of struggles and pain
That accomplishments are made
Through extreme inner strain
That nothing comes easy
And if it does
It will all fade away
To something that was
The reasons must be
To have some of both
Before we complete
The cycles of growth

The art of forgetting is the art of remembering
For what you are thinking now is something you’re learning new
And when you just remember that you forgot something
You’re not just forgetting
You are remembering at the right time
The art of forgetting is the art of forgiving
The art of remembering is the art of knowing
For when you just remember
You are remembering that you know
The art within knowing is to know and forgive

Free verse
It’s an honor and a privilege
And a lot of fun to be
A Team Member
Of the SSP
In 1956
Back in history
The Secretaries Club was born
At UTMB
To orient, teach
And meet socially
With seminars, programs
And luncheon meetings monthly
With groups
Of developed committees,
Fundraisers and contributions
Support the university
It’s now much more
Than a club of secretaries,
It’s the Support Staff Professionals
Called the SSP!

IT’S MY TURN
TIME TO KNOW ME
TO RE-BUILD MYSELF
MOST POSITIVELY
NO MAN SHALL
PULL ME DOWN
FOR I AM STRONG
AND WITHOUT FROWN
WITH EACH ONE
THOUGH WITH PAIN
MORE INNER STRENGTH
I’VE ALWAYS GAINED
NO REGRETS ON
WHERE I’VE BEEN
JUST GLAD IT’S PASSED
NO MORE TO OPEN
HAVE I GONE THROUGH
JUST WHAT IT TAKES
TO FINALLY LEARN
WHAT IS MEANT AS FATE?
IT’S GOOD TO BE BACK
WITH ME AGAIN
SO MANY MORE GOALS
WITH MANY MORE MOUNTAINS
