  when the race has been run
    you are what your family is
      ~That's what your legacy is...

woman

that stars back at me.

Today I’m grateful for Nelson Mandela…
Who understood when all is said and done…
the main purpose of freedom
is to create it for everyone

At the end of the day
When all is said and done
I promise I won’t ask for much

Only 

Fire to warm me
Crickets to soothe me
S’mores to feed me
Stars to guide me

And you beside me....

When all is said and done.
When the curtains close
and the actor walks home –
The end of yet another
day for him.
Or so it may seem
to you…
If only you knew –
you are my home.
The end of my day....

when we want time to walk 
it runs
when we want it to run
it walks
time is a minute
at a time
no rhyme or reason
holds its sway
but when all is said and done
there is still only 24 hours
in a day....

Don't just let my writing blow you away
I am still God's jar of clay

God has given me a gift
Lives to hopefully uplift

Try to be humble
Beats having a fumble!

When all is said and done
God's the one who truly won!...

I had to trade another jot,
I had to sell a tittle.
I had to cuz they told me that
I had to give a little.

I had to sit and wonder at
the setting of the sun,
what giving just a little costs
when all is said and done.

When all is said and done,
Who will be the one,
To say sorry.

When all is said and done,
Who will be the one,
To say don't worry.

When all is said and done,
Who will take the blame,
And feel no shame,
When all is said and done....

Stop hating to start loving
Start loving to stop hating
   Which one will it be

For some it's one
For some, the other
   It matters not to me

When all is said and done
   As long as Love is in
   And Hate is out
       We've won...

I guess I once was a juvenile delinquent. Then I became an adult delinquent. Now I'm a middle age delinquent. Soon enough I'll be a senior citizen delinquent. When all is said and done and it is all over I'll just become a dead delinquent. Ha Ha....

Listen to poem:

fulfillment is achieved,
when all is said and done, by the trek not the prize
ill conceived.

as way forward
when it's not a shallow, hollowed
reward

chest task
as memento
mask

fulfillment is achieved
when it's not a shallow, hollowed
mask...

Life requires balance and agility,
without each... we fail to negotiate 
the rough roads and sharp turns 
along its course. 
Highway speed is of no concern
because when all is said and done
everyone finds the same destination point...
the end of the road!...

How sad that he's forgotten
All the lessons love has taught him

The money never mattered
Her poor heart is torn and shattered

It's amazing just to listen
To his lacking self rendition 

I guess when all is said and done
Empty feelings are all he's won.......

When all the smoke has cleared on battles either lost or won,

the downed and damned and damaged tallied in the aftermath,

as ever, Guilt turns to Remorse when all is said and done

and leaves Regret to walk alone down consequences path.

Who is the Queen?
When all is said and done.
A nice old lady who wears nice hats
And in life has had a decent run.
Her servants do the weekly shopping.
She watches Corrie when at home.
And maybe like you she reads the Sun
Whilst seated on the throne.

I support folks who challenge a perceived wrong by peaceful demonstration.

The First Amendment guarantees that right, when all is said and done.

But I loathe the rioting rabble who are ripping apart this great nation!

Such anarchic mobs have no respect for anything or anyone!...

When all is said and done 
The curtains close on you 
When darkness overcomes 
You will be through 
It’s true 
I know 
I was there once 
Waiting in the depths 
I was there once 
Begging to be kept 
I was there once 
Wanting to be free 
I’ll be there someday 
Won’t you wait for me...

We seek our fortune,
we seek our fame,
when we lose our perspective,
only we are to blame...

We seek our silver,
we seek our gold,
we'll throw away everything,
if our praises be told...

We soak in the glory,
we revel in all of the cheers,
when all is said and done,
we never get back all those years....

Silently screaming.


At the end of the day all things end.
When all is said and done, we are merely men.
Nearly men never find their true love.
We are left so close, but never touched.
So far from being,
Always only ever seeing and dreaming,
While inside we remain…silently screaming.

'Tis that time again to bedeck the tree with decorations!

   Untangling the string of lights is one of my annual frustrations!

      Naughty words are said but when all is said and done, you'll,

         Happily declare that sans a Christmas tree it wouldn't be a Yule!

Most people that I meet, 
Indoors or on the street, 
Are essentially polite, 
So, we don't get in a fight. 

After I know them a while, 
They may become hostile,  
With opinions really strong, 
And then I'm always wrong. 

Later, I find they're insane, 
And we become friends again. 
The crazy phase is more fun
When all is said and done....

Brian
       Hear that smal lvoice call
       my sacrifice,for you,once, and for all
Brian
       Come close,cease all inner strife
       you are recorded in my Book of Life
Brian
       Draw nearer,have no fear,be calm
       your name is written on my palm
Brian
       When all is said,and done
       You're placed in my family,as a son...

If we agree to disagree
Does that avoid a fight?
I do not see how that can be
If both of us are right.

At least, we both believe we are
So if that is the case,
We’d have to somehow drop the bar
Or someone loses face.

I guess when all is said and done
We’ll both still feel annoyed
That no one’s lost and no one’s won;
A truce is null and void....
