Poetry that takes you on a journey of love, passion, life, and wisdom. The purpose of poetry is to engage ones emotions with the heart and mind. The root of our total being in thinking and doing and living. It expresses the truth that affects each human in every aspect of their lives.
To my words you should heed,
Never,
never give up!
Eliminate your heart from greed,
Never,
never give up!
Then you can live life in peace,
Because, the world you can release,
And your happiness will increase –
Never, never
give up!

I know a place where we never grow old,
And time is
something will never know –
And darkness has no place to hide,
Where light
will always show!
So today ask yourself, “Do I have faith?”
Is it the
love of God, you know?
Where are you going after this life is over?
Search your
heart – the truth will show!
God is always with us – we just need faith!
We have to
take inventory on what is real,
Look at the universe – God set it all in place,
And to the
truth we cannot ever yield!
I know a place where we never grow old,
And the streets are paved with gold!

The things they did teach me in school,
And I do remember the golden rule –
Over my heart I placed my hand,
And I pledged allegiance to this land!
Indoctrinated to put America first –
The national anthem we had to rehearse!
This is something I will never forget,
And there’s nothing better I’ve found yet!
I still stand proud and watch old glory fly,
And for America I would still die!
So don’t you wave your flag in my face –
The undertakers will lay you in your place!
You liberals can be as crazy as you like,
But know this, “We’re taking America back!”

In any situation we cannot control,
Politics and religion we can’t argue,
The best thing is to let it go!
But I can still love you!
Someone will always have to win
So don’t be a sore loser!
You will have a chance again . . .
And maybe the road will be smoother!
If you had won you would’ve gloated!
So please show some class –
Its life, we all cannot get promoted –
Let’s toast the winner – fill your glass!
Focus on the real problems we face –
Walk slowly – there’s no need to race!

“Come, my lover,” said a heart one day,
“Come to my bed and let’s play –
It’s this heart you surely know,
I long for you – even when it’s cold!”
When the moon shadows fall . . .
Sounds of my spirit you’ll hear it call –
And when your heart is sad and blue,
I’ll sing old love songs to you!
“Yes darling,” my hands upon your skin,
Your body will cry out, “Let it never end!”
And I’ll take you where you’ve never been –
Ah, when love is done right it’s not a sin!
“Lover, I’ll tell you things that you know,
The truth in a heart will always show –
And after the love we have made . . .
Remember the moonlight where you laid!
Singing and dancing – where love went,
Sounds of heartbeats, and feeling content –
O my lover, the night you came to my bed,
And the memories that linger in my head!

From Plymouth Rock to the Golden Gate Park,
People stand with their hand over their heart –
All that came before us that fought and died!
Their blood was shed where you now reside –
So don’t wave another country’s flag in my face!
Unless it’s my fist you want to taste!
Freedom was fought for – so you have no right –
That’s why our families can sleep safely at night!
If you don’t love America then please leave!
You have the right to believe what you believe –
If you think you have it so bad here . . .
Then you can always move to Nigeria!
I love this nation, and my life I would gladly give,
And to my Liberal friends I still have to forgive!

Why now?
I thought I had erased your memory –
Years have gone by!
I had to move on with life . . .
Why now?
How did you know that I was hurting?
You know I can’t handle this!
You know the guilt I have suffered!
Your family tried to contact me,
But I refused to see you lying there
Helpless and knowing you were dying!
Why now?
I know I didn’t say goodbye!
I had to move on with life . . .
And now you show up in my dream –
“It’s alright
I needed to let you know that I’m okay,
And it was not your fault . . .
Heaven is so beautiful and I’m waiting –
Go back to sleep my precious love,
And know that I will always love you!"
