No man can ever understand,
There's Spring Cleaning across this land,
Miss Mop and Clean waves her hand,
Snoring is his male band,
Not to worry, no time to sup,
Gals want to sparkle up,
One shelf at a time,
Spray and Wipe sublime,
Fresh is the cupboard smell,
Charity bags cast their spell,
All tidy now, so it seems,
Polished the dog, he gleams,
Must detox this brain,
Wasting thoughts quite inane,
Declutter world still revolving,
Spring Cleaning is evolving!
When you give insightful thought,
You can only be as you ought;
God has created you as you are:
Another creation of His awe!
So, do not be distressed or depressed;
For you are one of the Crearor's best:-
Just know that being with stress,
Does not make you less than the rest:-
Know that you are beautiful and blessed,
Being here for all others to see
The Creator never made any of us less,
But the treasured beauty we ought to be:-
God blessed a precious womb to birth you,
And that womb has given you to all of us;
So, don't be a foggy mirror image in dust, but
A blessed reflection of God's love in all that you do:-
Slow down Tueday
you moving to fast
the Preacher told me
to tell stop shaking your ass
Slow down Tuesday
Phat as you are
saw your panties
when you were getting out of the car
slow down tuesday
wiff your perfume on
smell whip round my
nose like a cyclone bomb
Slow down Tuesdays
Wiggle Jiggle Tease
Got th fellas falling
Down to there knees
Slow Down Tuesday
Sipping your wine
Got the men buying
the expensive kind
Slow down tuesday
Made me into a hypocrite
Guys coming round trying
o start some sh$t
Slow down Tuesday
You want me for your man
Slow down Tuesday
Lay with me baby
Tell you can
Slow Down Tuesday
One man at a time
Only Reason you do
with is cause you so Fine
Slow Down Tuesdays
When will you tell me
what thats about
Even it can rain with lightning and thunderstorms but the sun will rise again.
That broken hearts will repair.
That river of your tears will stop flowing.
That pain will end.
One day I got up off the john,
And to my desk to work upon.
An hours passed. I looked around.
To my amazing eyes I found:
My paper took a shade of brown,
All up the page and even down.
My muddy desk, my muddy pen.
My muddy walls, around my den.
Furthermore, my hand it reeks,
For sure to come between my cheeks,
A lesson learned, remember it,
To wash your hands after you .
With a flip of the wrist
the stripe he swiped
Just like that
his identity wiped
Tears some men easily wipe
By smoking a waiting pipe,
The same tears most women shed
Precariously perching on a bed.
Big tears male criers crave
While on female cheeks they’d rave:
Some tears a man strenuously forces,
On the eyelids of a woman racing horses:
A wounded pride’s would eternally last,
The physically injured’s drying up fast;
The messages in men’s tears are short
The ones in women’s a well-aimed shot!
I will wipe your tears away
with my smile,
and I'd forget the pain
of my broken heart
with your love!
My light will remove
your darkness,
My hurts will go away
after gazing at you
in the morning!
I will be tired and sleep deep
But I will wake up
by hearing your feet,
I will be surprised
and take you as a bride
in my little heart!
You'll tell me your minds
and forget the silent pain
to see my eyes,
Your shy voice will bring the moon
on my secret door
in the color of sweet love.
Christmas Gift Basket
Wipe away and sanitize
With Clorox bleach pads
Give you butt a treat
With a roll of golden TP
May your Christmas wishes
Come true with a Masks-less
New Year, taking this basket
Of Christmas cheer
Wiping away this whole Year
options abound
anxious or carefree
why do you choose to cry

Will someone come and wipe the tears from my eyes,
Sing to me a lullaby.
A soft and sweet note too ease and comfort what’s hurting inside
Quiet it peacefully, with vocals, hummed gently from someone’s throat.
Promise me that tomorrow will not be like today or yesterday,
That if I continue to pray, that the pain in it, will all simply just go away.
Maybe, I can just go away,
Away to somewhere they know, not my name
But to new places, upon new faces, where I can find love just the same.
Will someone come and wipe away my tears,
These same tears that have fallen for so many years, so unrealistically real
And the hand I was dealt was the real deal, “Holyfield”.
Can anyone out there hear or help me,
I’m crying out from within, acknowledge my plea.
I call on his grace, only seeking those in the image of his face,
God’s face, only one who can erase this pain shut up inside
Will you come to wipe the tears from my eyes?
Waves of sorrow, bring me to my knees.
"Get up! Your battle is won".
"No more crying, WIPE THOSE EYES".
I can see clearly, without the tears as hope enters.
Tears come without warning but leave with open eyes.
Victory is mine, but why do you doubt?
"WIPE THOSE EYES! Straight is the way".
I am needed; much is to come, tears also.
Where would I be without you.
I do not want to know.
Life has just begun; and I have many paths ahead.
"WIPE THOSE EYES, TEARS ARE IN THE WAY"!
If only you knew how upset I get,
going into bathrooms with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to wipe up water off the counter,
with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to dry my eyes,
with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to wipe a baby's butt,
with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to wipe food off my top,
with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to take invisible towels,
with just air machines.
Because sometimes we can't say,
what angers us from day to day.
I have not figured out how to get paper towels put back,
not just air machines.
I have not figured out how to get choice put back,
not just air machines.

If Only You Knew How Upset I Get
my writings and pen
none can ban
swift humming bird
rebel in a bard
dripping blood
on a tissue, as tears, flirt!
none can wipe, none can wipe
cause- this is liberal life

You are sadden
And those tears flowing down your face
You're not happy
Why you worrying
Why you distraught
You are crying
crying
And God shall wipe away
And God shall wipe away
And God shall wipe away
your tears
When your loved one died
you cried
Have no fear, He're here
To hold you, console you
your crying your tears
And God shall wipe away
And God shall wipe away
And God shall wipe away
Have no fear God is here
And He will dry away your tears
And He will dry away your tears
From your eyes there'll be no more
crying
There'll be no more sorrow
Neither shall there be anymore pain
For those former things are passed away
God shall wipe away every single tear
