Whoever Told You That
So, you never told a lie the spotted toad said to the frog.
George Washington frog laughed and rolled off the fallen log.
Whoever told you that? He said, is lying about me.
So, said the toad, you also never chopped down a cherry tree?

Whoever I Want To Be
Where the river runs cold, warmth can still be found
In the tranquility of the flow, is a peaceful gurgling sound
Snow and ice do not stop its move, as it crests in smiles
Cold air transforms the landscape, winter’s white is seen for miles
Invigorating, refreshing, sights pleasing to senses, across the land
An awakening occurs, I’m mesmerized by

Whoever Is Alert
Whoever is alert
Seeks to some point assert.
Your thoughts need not round cruise
Or a search start for clues...
He's a security,
Safety—Priority,
For prized alacrity,
Help to authority,
Eyes on obscurity;
Life has no parity:
Whoever is alert
Can fat danger avert,
Swoop on a crazed pervert,
To The Right him revert;
Prowlers picking their names,
Crooks beating in their games
On even days gone grey,
Lens swinging either way...
Though

To Whoever
To Whoever:
My life isn’t a joke,
My depression isn’t something to laugh at.
You say you care,
do you?
If you do stop laughing.
when I do something that brings me pleasure,
don’t call me a disgrace.
Don’t point and laugh.
Don’t be fake,
don’t try to be someone you aren’t around me.
Don’t judge me behind my back.
Please don’t make fun of my

Whoever Has Seen Me Has Seen the Father -John 14: 7-11
Jesus speaks to Philip His disciple
tells that seeing Him is seeing His father
for in knowing Jesus, you know God
so those that believe this Jesus will gather
Philip still didn't get it asking more
'Lord show us the father' it'll be enough
Jesus was exasperated with him by now
why is this? it's plain knowledge from above
Jesus had been on

Woman, Whenever, Wherever, Whoever You Are
well, woman has been around for a while
hypno-teasing men with her wicked smile
been known by many names starting with Eve
Boadicea, Cleopatra and Genevieve
she can fly-by-night, be out with the bats
purring and prowling with sly slinky cats
never a tame girl, sometimes receptive

Whoever Is With You
I will not be separated from you.
I am yours, your speaker.
Make every wish of yours true,
now it is necessary for me.
I'm more than you and no longer
none is necessary.
Stole you with your heart.
Tell you your own,caller.
Dying at your love.
No one else,I am just one.
What you understand more than you.
I will not be separated from you.

Letter To Whoever Forgot Me
Will you sing me a lullabye before I go?
Dear Mom and Dad, I want you to know
My young heart is beating, my eyes fill with tears,
I pray that your love will conquer your fears.
God knit me here, you are my lifeline,
Will you sing to me, sweet Mother of Mine?
If you do not want me, please

To My Darling, Whoever She Is
If I’d only turned that corner …
or if you’d crossed that street …
if you hadn’t booked that sauna …
How come we didn’t meet?
If I’d joined the Belgian army,
or enrolled at Kansas State,
or if I’d passed on that pastrami …
so – is it now too late?
If I linger in DeSoto’s,
or step out, some freezing night:

1500 To Whoever It May Concern
All that was wet dream
A big dream now a life is dim
Yours gleam it seem
But we were once one a team
Gave you top creme de le creme
Until you started mentioning Kim
What was pure now insecure
So you were just the 'fitest' survival
You don't care where you fall
As long as you fake fall
Then there comes Paul

Just a Guide For Whoever
I'm still kind
and still rewind.
Even though the disc
goes back to the beginning
automatically each time.
There's a lesson in life
for holding doors.
It depends how far away
the person is in seconds,
I believe it's 4.
Don't hold the door if the
person is more than 50 feet.
You don't want an old lady
sprinting through the street.
Throw egg shells away
don't put

Whatever, Wherever, Whoever
Whatever you say
during your day,
be happy and gay.
Wherever you go,
you can move fast or slow.
Keep yourself in the know.
Whoever you are,
be yourself.
You can travel near and far.
Just stay off the shelf.

Home, Whoever It May Go To
I don't know if I'll be back this time.
Time enraptures me,
Seduces me into places I know for too
long.
A million faces but they'll never feel like
home,
I got too close to the stone,
Heard marvelous stories
And wept when it ended,
And shared myself, do you hear me?
I lended.
I love you yet I must go,
The past is obdurate
