February
hangs on for life,
But
March awaits in the wing –
The
Robin is ready to sing
As
the cold still creates strife!
I
admit – I’m not a winter fan
I
am in love with spring!
All
will come to life, everything!
It’s
about God’s perfect plan!
O
I love to see a rose unfold,
As
the Tulip’s sway in the wind,
And
this is where it all begins –
Bring
its sweetness to my soul!
February
hangs on for life,
But
spring takes away the strife!

A
Day will come
(Reality
will always win)
We
look around, but there is nowhere to run!
All
things will come to an end –
So
man, in your arrogance stance
I
must ask, “Did you think life goes on forever?”
Is
truth just a form of circumstance –
Arrogance
is never defined as being clever!
Look
in the mirror – reality you must face!
Time
waits not; it just fades away . . .
So,
ask yourself, “Did you run a good race
Or
was life to you just another day?”
Reality,
A Day will come
We
look around, but there is nowhere to run!

Roses
are sad,
And
violets are glad!
Women
are not all the same,
And
I guess it’s men to blame!
Gender
affirmation – a bunch of crap –
I
guess common sense is taking a nap!
Our
world, I just shake my head,
And
it makes me want to stay in bed!
In
truth, “The Devil is alive and well,”
And
he is taking the world to hell!
The
roses may be sad,
And
the violets may be glad!
But
we all must make a choice:
“Listen
to the world or God’s voice.”

It’s
3AM and the darkness is still
How
I got home I have no clue –
By
the porcelain god I kneel!
I
thought, “Why kill yourself?”
Because
whiskey is my friend:
(Remembering
the night, she left!)
I’m
always there until the last call –
Drowning
her memory with Jack,
Was
it love? Hell, I don’t recall!
I
can’t remember being so sick,
But
I’m sure I’ll do it again –
Drink
less – now that’s the trick!
It
was not my fault – she just left,
And
I’m stuck here with myself!

Good
morning, Lord
It’s
me again . . .
I
was just wondering:
“When
will this life end?”
It’s
been quite a journey
With
just You and me –
The
things my eyes have seen,
But
it’s heaven I long to see!
I
know I’ve made a lot of mistakes,
And
I know You forgave them all!
I
know Lord, the world deceives me,
But
I’ve always heard Your call –
I
remember what James had to say:
“Life
is like a vapor that appears
A
little time and then vanishes away.”

Someday
I know you will know
That
this heart belonged to you –
You
will know before I’m through!
The
inner workings of my soul –
Have
you seen the sunset?
Have
you ever felt totally alone?
Have
you heard a sad song?
Have
you ever had regrets?
Well
love, I’ve had my part of pain!
I
know how it feels to die
When
I’ve shouted out your name!
And
I know how it feels to cry –
Darling,
life will never be the same
It’s
like walking in yesterday’s rain!
