Looking at the photos
Of us in my phone,
It’s faint, but, I can 
Almost feel your presence.

It’s as if you’re still here.
Thank you for being one
Of the most memorable
Mentors I’ve ever had....

Marvelous ministers
meant to share the gospel
message, men and women
motivated by love
marked by God to go forth
making disciples, true 
mentors of faith and peace.

Breaking free of stagnant pacing
Through doors hanging off hinges to freedom
Fighting the tyrant mentors calling you out
Though you haven't reached perfection
Flaws are greatness, 
For they make your work stand out...

Dear mentors; your gracious words instruct*
Thanks; with good works, lives you construct.

Of a didactic nature 
Let those mentors teach
Get a grasp of what they are telling you 
There are goals that you need to reach 
Take it all in stride 
Let those lessons make you better 
Always captivate your mind 
And make your visions sharper...

God-braced life builders

       Valuable beyond gold’s price

               Children’s* great mentors.

*Psalm 34:11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.

heroes
not the ones from
the land of make-believe,
the ones in flesh, are much nearer
than we realize. these special people
make a difference in our lives:
our parents, mentors, friends,
and teachers; real...
heroes.

The In Between

Oh, Middle School child
you “in between”
shackled to the horde
like a cartridge to a gun,
to trifle, loiter in halls,
and elicit mordacious slurs to
wizened eyed mentors.

Black and red of cards
Men in deck of cards
Wise and great in name
Shocked the World in fame
Rise and fall in flame

Rulers of land
Feats over sand
Charlemagne, David
Alex, Julius

Bards of right
Conquerors
And mentors

Four Men
Of cards

Kings...

Education is a must,
So your mind can be robust,
Through blood, sweat, and tears,
It's the 6 inches between the ears,
For the people that give,
So you can truly live,
The teachers and mentors,
The tutors and scholars,
So you have no strife,
The Fathers of Life.

Sticks and stones won't break my poems
and terms will never use us,
the artist's hope goes it alone,
while others just diffuse us!

Hip and hop won't take my crop
and placard's mentors lose us,
my only truth is still unknown ~
until my lines .  .  .  .  transfuse us!...

children and their mentors

Rondelet: Rat-a-tat-'tat

Rat-a-tat-'tat
Rattle staccato riddle tumble
Rat-a-tat-'tat
Toppled children scatter rat-tat
Innocent voices all tremble
Rifled trillions sure-fire treble

I got to wear a badge for S. County
Key access, email, laptop, equipment
I was trusted with tax dollars
And invested in with time, talent, thought
Wise words from my mentors
And a desk

Thank you for your time
And your trust

I hope I repaid it
In new vision, completed projects
And servanthood....

Alone will all stand, void of lawyers or mentors
no person will escape from the best orators
chance has no chance, gone is the period of options
human deeds are displayed for reckoning to auction
heaven and hell seated and ready to suction
a judge is on the throne not an arbitrator
who condemns to everlasting pain on any traitor.

Please 
Help me now
I beseech thee
I ask that you show me
Just how to write a good poem
Yes, I am so very eager to learn
And yes, I will also pass the knowledge along
As I succeed, you will succeed as well
For, I will never take credit
Of that which is not mine
I’ll give it back
To all my 
Friends

‘Material things aren’t the essence of a person; whether we have more or less doesn’t make us more or less parents, guardians, mentors, role models, spouses or friends. Materials things are just that – we are born without and leave without them. What’s within us – our values and the fruits of life – are our essence. Sharing them or not sharing them makes us more or less of who we are’....

His favorite protegee
Mentors her day by day
You are his curious delight 
You're always affable
And so unflappable
Yes you're his favorite acolyte

Though your aura's sacred chic
Radiating cool mystique
Your life story does bespeak
Constant fight

His patronage for your art
Remains for you're his dear heart
Shine favorite protegee shine
Rejoice that your lives intertwine...

What can I say about my sisters?
Are they a thorn in the side, like blisters?
Or my oldest friends, indeed,
Always mentors in time of need,
The family ties that bind,
Ever ready to say "Never mind",
We look alike, but think apart,
Oldest friends from times long past,
"Older ladies', we've ripened,
Can't buy sisters with a stipend,
Are sisters thorns in the sides like blisters?
No, you cannot buy my sisters!...

TOO LATE POET

 Too Late
          ink bled out in childbirth
          pages curled in sorrow
          crumpled, torn in pain
too late
she took up her pen


Too Late
          mentors dead
          joy dormant
          sorrows burnished
too late
she took up her pen


Too Late
           vexing visage
           crows fingernails and toes
           fading wit
too late
she took up her pen

and
tranquility
was
her
name...
