Gratitude

Be grateful for all you have indeed
Hope for not what you want,but for what you need.

Take heed of greed,
Be kind and do good deeds.

Remember there are a lot of people in need,
Many hungry mouths to feed.

Be a person that leads,
Set a good example,help and succeed.

In the end you will have achieved,
Showing others what you believed.

To Kate

My heart belongs to Kate
For in her eyes the beauty is great.

But what lay beneath the silken skin, a heart of gold,
I know this,for I have been told.

Her feelings run as deep as the Sea
But alas Kate does not know of me.

Still I dream of thee, it comforts me; although I must wait and see,
Until I die she will always be, in my dreams and memories.

Hope

I have had a blessed life. 
I've had a loving Mother and Grandmother, 
a wonderful childhood.
I have no desire for material objects, no ego,  have had many studies of philosophy with the help of my grandparents. 
What I've always believed is that love conquers all. 
Have hope, spread the word of love and peace whenever possible.
We will get to the next level by the willpower of the human spirit. 
Good shall overcome evil, have faith and hope.

On My Way

I hear, I become clever
I see,I remember.

I read,I learn
Into my memory it burns.

Someday I will leave this earth,
Ascend to discover my true worth.

I am just a visitor here,
Traveling to a place where those are dear.

Keep my things, for I will not need them there,
For where I go is all love and eternal care.

The time has come to take his hand,
To lead me to the promised land.

Where all my loved ones sit and wait,
Beyond the stars at Heavens Gate.

A Friend

I am here to give good cheer,
To make you smile makes it all worth while.

To brighten your day,
And take the gloom away.

When you feel down,
I will come around.

To be a friend; a helping hand,
Because in the end,that is where I stand.

Waiting

I am standing on the platform,
waiting for the peace train.

I have no baggage of any kind
but still I wait and will remain.

My mind is clear, my thoughts are pure,
In my heart I rest assured.

That I will go home to hear his word,
before the darkness does occur.

Times Have Changed

All the houses look the same
Every street a different name

No more children play outside
Behind closed doors they seem to hide

The parks are empty on a summers day
All the people stay away

I find myself in deep thought
Of what use to be, and now what is not

Peace of Mind

What we need is what we get
What we want we should forget

Life is better when we get knowledge and wisdom
Simple ways to the Creators kingdom

Cut the ties of want and greed
Feed your soul with what you need

Along the way you will find
All your desires and wants kept you from peace of mind

Rocks On the Shoreline

We are like rocks on the shoreline,.
The waves come in like the feelings we experience daily, 
they wash over us, but we remain there day after day. 
The waves  build our character with each one that rolls in.
Knowing these waves keep coming we become familiar with them over time,
we ride out the highs and the lows of our lives. 
They strengthen us and weaken us,
but we learn to adapt to each wave as they roll in.
All through these continual waves of feelings our will keeps us going forward.

What I Am

I am a poet, I try to do it well
Although  you cannot always tell

I will always try do  the best
To write the line and give it zest

If I write  it with all my heart
Then I will have done the best to do my part

Have a very pleasant day
As for now I am on my way
