Let us build an allied world built with peace All people joining hearts across the sea It’s how life on God’s earth was meant to be. A world that has no animosity Where love is measured by what’s in one's heart No secrets to hide, no adversity. Nothing’s worth war, could anything be worse Hate, an emotion that makes living hell Terror, a...

Life is a cycle of joys and sorrows Ups and downs come and go, sometimes high, sometimes low Use your todays, don't think of tomorrows Failure is the stepping stone to success A win requires hard work, something we cannot shirk Challenges are needed to make progress A leopard cannot change his dotted spots Can't straighten a dog's...

When you die You are gone It's goodbye No one stays On this earth For all days It is said Past is past Dead is dead Done is done And for whom? Everyone You won't know When it's your Time to go Need I say?

In this world truth is not always black and white, It comes in multi shades of gray, But there are truths obvious in my sight. I's obvious to me that God exists. The beauty of creation testifies, To His creative genius in our midst. Good versus evil is a war being waged, And the earth is the battleground. Evil is of the devil...

There’s God and there’s the devil Man’s caught in the middle Who’s good and who’s evil, There’s Heaven and there’s hell More beautiful is the earth Can anyone otherwise tell, There’s sin and there’s confession Then there’s the rule of law To constraint further transgression, There’s Koran and there’s Bible Forget William Shakespeare Man plays the role of the disciple, There’s Politics and there’s Religion Trapped like a...

If you speak will it not offend me for I am as fragile as a crisp leaf blowing on a silenced wind, lost in the darkness of closed eyes. If you look too long upon my visage you touch the edges of aggression battering my frail psyche triggering conditioned reflexes. If you hold the door open you crush me with chauvinism deny me my right...

How fast our childhood goes. It starts out like a tiny stream, then like a river flows. This river which is life will carry us perhaps to college. Most become a husband or a wife. Once married, we want more! We work and save so we can have the things that we adore. Such different things folk dream of, yet so many things the same are...

When all is well: love lasts, adventure winks, and flesh is wrinkle-free — no one thinks of hell. Hands touch and lips express, untortured by death; the sun and moon do bless. Yellow tennis balls in motion. Muscles on court, in sea — Sunset and sunrise by the ocean. The morning news and puzzles shared. Just the sight, scent and glory of his wife. Warm coffee...

One plus one adds up to two. The opposite of fast is slow. You stick two things with a glue. You kiss those cheeks with your lips. You touch something with your fingers. The plural noun of dripping is drips. When you raise your voice, you shout. When you speak softly, you whisper. You eat a sandwich with your mouth. A mask covers a...

Two eyes I have for God’s works to behold praying to be spared from cataract when birthdays would reveal my age is old. Left and right ears toward comprehending while learning through special child’s sign language perceiving his sounds with understanding. Midst tongue to feast on varied foods, tasteful and mouth declaring of the Lord’s greatness I smile with my dimples, indeed grateful. Blest...

I breathe in existence- in this great world, all the living and all the dead; and all the pitfalls swirled: I breathe in existence- and vast beauty, all the forests green and seas blue; earth's balance my duty: I breathe in existence- and the pretty, all of the birds and all the fish; in...

Not one is perfectly happy on earth Still we praise God for his bountiful agape love and worth If God were powerful as everyone affirms Why doesn't he end all our problems? Why doesn't he do something that confirms? Every one is suffering, for many life is unbearable If he were a true father, he should end all agony With true love...
