Premium Member A Word To the Wise

Beware being alone in strange places
Or, In the middle of unfamiliar faces,
Know when you are in a danger zone
Be sure you never go there alone.

Beware the stranger in the night
Who asks for help to ease his plight,
The ease for him may be your purse
Or, need I say, something much worse?

Some ask 
....is there gain or merit,
....Or what is the prize.

The word,with sighs, replies..

A crown that will not fade
On each of us is laid...

Reborn from dust
Those resurrected just,
To reign a thousand year
Where love's held dear.

Made right with Him,
Life without sin.

life's no dry run
turn back,turn about start over;
all loving is for free
viewed from bended knee
looking we only see
listening is to be;
caring and sharing
exploring,if daring
looking we only see,
listening is to be;
life's everlasting lotions
challenge transient notions
looking we only see
listening is to be;
exude our unique self
release that inner wealth
looking we only see
listening is to be;
participating with the other
giving assurance of a mother
looking you'll only see
listening is to be;

life's no dry run
turn back,turn about ,start over.

A Word To the Wise

Insanity an element of wickedness chase 
men in hot pursuit, brothers and sisters 
who have lost the need for God, I come 
to you with mercy and truth, better is he 
in whom righteousness dwells the keeper 
of God's laws, sons and daughters of the 
ancient wise, in who's character there are 
no flaws. The scripture tell us to embrace 
the Word of God in so doing we under-
stand all things in faithfulness blessings 
to us abound, the richness of spirit the 
Lord brings.

Proverbs 28



Word To the Wise

Every one may not like you and you can  not expect them too,
Because regardless where you go in this world someone is jealous of you.
Everyone you know is not necessary   your friend,
You will discover there will be hatred even from some of your kin .
I’m not saying be defensive but do yourself a favor
Like a Poe  once said, good fences makes good neighbors

seeing
              is
                 believing
what
is
unseeable
                 comes
                 into
view
hearing
              what is
              unheard
a
voice
                become
                thoughts
anew
               reading
               becomes
understanding
as the
                word
                makes
these
things
                 true

A Word To the Wise Is Sufficient

A Word to the Wise is Sufficient

By Elton Camp

We see a sign:  “Next services 100 miles away,”
 It would be a very good idea if we should obey
We better be sure that the car is full of gasoline
That in a restroom, too, we have just been seen

In an emergency, we might hide behind the car
But without any gas, we wouldn’t get very far
Thus, when gas and bathroom are that far away
It’s not wise to ignore and take a chance that day
