I seek my peace in my space
just want to be me the quiet loner
and write my own script
even if others find me wierd
I love the energy
found in the depth of solitude

We have got a wonderful world
full of amazing creatures all around
so diverse and beautiful truly great
very colourful and bright to abound
It is indeed so amazing really amazing
this earth is so vast and so very full
what a picture we have to behold
but man is guilty of being so cruel
In Africa especially so many under threat
many of the Big Cats face danger
lack of food and water so very scarce
this thought makes one so full of anger
Another problem exists among poachers
killing animals causing danger of extinction
O for a turning of goodness for all creatures
equally, fairness be given greater distinction
The dangers of climate chaos affect all
with the Arctic getting warmer cools the ice
pray for God to intervene to bring rescue
for if not its left to a throw of the dice!
(this is about the love of the earth, but also showing its flaws)

I've been happy
and now I'm glad
Joyously wonderful
I am, I'm made I'm the best now
Now that I've ever been
And in Jesus I am that I am
A child of a living God ALWAYS!!!

sitting on the bench in the middle of a field
eating properly made cornbread with blue bonnet on it
watching her do yoga and still not understanding
thanking God for putting me exactly where i am meant to be
our 15 year old welsh corgi named ireland asleep on the bench beside me
happy to not be doing nothing and just as thankful to be blessed with love
noticing you watching us with a smile and carelessly losing the focus of your center
coming to join us as if you were being left out of the fray
putting my arm around you letting your warmth and apple cinnamon cent long for a slice of apple pie
you kissing me softly on the lips asking me if i wanted her to make an apple pie
me and ireland coming to attention immediately after the asking of her ironic question
us both looking at ireland laughing as she puts her head back down to pout, knowing she will not being getting any
we both then beging singing the late o.c. smith's 'little green apples'
then, for some reason, we plan a trip to indianapolis for our summer vacation
we feel raindrops giving light, friendly warnings to our fingers
we wake ireland up and quickly head back to the house

• SATANS MAD BECAUSE I AM WONDERFULLY MADE-
What am I today?
And am I in the way
I am perfectly and wonderfully made.
I am beautiful and the only way
That I’m in the way
Is where Satan stands
Because he’s mad
Because I’m in God’s will doing His way, His bidding
He’s mad satan cause I am not listening to a word says
Even if there’re that those familiar words they isn’t truth
They are his lives, those devils

sitting in a gazebo
in the rain with you
watching the water flow with a smile
enjoying the quiet as well as the stillness
listening to you sing love (can make you happy)
and saying to my self, 'oh mercy!'
making you laugh mid-lyric
then i sing 'laughter in the rain'
to myself while enjoying the beautiful
singing voice and the pleasure of the
pleasingly permanent company of the
One That I Love......Nothing Like It!

damona and i write a book
everyday is not the same
whether we are under the sun
whether we are in the rain
we choose to help others who are in pain
the smiles that we inspire help us to cope
when we make a day better for someone, it makes our day
the situation of damona and i is never the worst
God is the Ultimate Tour Guide
He says to call him Mr. Calavicci
what Mr. Calavicci shows damona and i so broadens the spectrum of our walk
the things that we complain about are rather quite minuscule each time we hear phrases called 'talk'
we continue our walk with Cherished Charity now as a Central Theme
paying it forward is the hippest trip, a vacation like a dream
damona with her blueblack tongue and i in my hat of the day
walk on to the next place Mr. Calavicci guides us....a Renewed Purpose in vast array

Wonderfully are you
You've made me ever true
I praise you
Praise you
Because I am wonderfully made
By a loving God
Hallelujah
Always, I praise you because
I'm fearfully saved mercy and Grace

The wings on my head makes me fly toward the heaven skies
I praise you because of who you are
I praise you because you're trusting all living God
I am fearfully and wonderfully made
Your works are wonderful made of clay your breath in me a human being
I praise you
Wonderfully
wonderfully are you
You made me ever true
Because I am fearfully and wonderfully made
Your works are wonderful I am your work
I know that full well I am your heart
Hallelujah

Ordinarily can't contain the truth
Of the openness goodness God has to choose
His righteousness blessedness just keeps me hanging on His promises virtues glorious glorious keeps me strong
And it won't be long
And it won't be long
Till I sing his praises
And it won't be long
His blessings keeps me strong
For all the ages
His openness goodness God has statues there's no luck
And his virtues you can't lose
I choose
To be righteously blessed and gloriously promised strong Never wrong won't be I'll keep singing keep singing his song

When you're young
you pray for any action
to break out of the rut..
then you have children
and are forced to grow up
you worship any silence
that briefly pops up
you become addicted to it
secretly wish for it
would give a finger for a sliver of it
then the last child moves out
everything suddenly turns dry and dead
but you get what you've wished for
that silence sliver in your head
funny how things come full circle
in this whirlwind of a world
then suddenly- out pops a grandchild
and everything turns wonderfully wild
and noisy again

“You are wonderfully weird” a dear friend just told me
Is that good, should I rejoice, run naked through the streets
Actually looking for an excuse
To act like a looney out on the loose
But I'll assume it's a compliment and send flowers to you, Mo my sweet

Lost, deep, among the grasses of the dunes
A summer shower rinsed us, sweet and warm
As, breathing in my ear, your steamy runes
I tasted drops of sea mist from your form
Our late-day passions ended as the storm
Was blushed to silence by the melting sun
The swirling stars, like fireflies in a swarm
Told painted clouds the evening had begun
And by a waking moon ... our lover's dreams were spun.

Verse 1
To go beyond comparison, no place to overplay
The potter of unique design, brought new life to the clay
Unwholesome talk, within my walk, of that I will release
I’m truly made in your image, I am your masterpiece
Chorus
Formed by your hand, beautiful and wonderfully made
Knowing who I am, honouring the life you gave
You have made a mark of victory
To partake in your plan
I present a unique offering
To the voice I understand
I am wonderfully made
Verse 2
Authentic worth, embrace your word, perspective unabridged
To liberate and so create my spiritual heritage
To this effect, I will protect your standard of measure
Your love endures, unconditional, of that I will treasure
Chorus
Bridge
Guided by your hand, to direct my sphere of service
Knowing who I am, created with a purpose
With a chorus of praise, my song is made new
I will dwell in the essence, of a godly point of view
Chorus
