Would not take the garbage out!
She'd scour the pots and scrape the pans,
Candy the yams and spice the hams,
And though her daddy would scream and shout,
She simply would not take the garbage out.
And so it piled up to the ceilings:
Coffee grounds, potato peelings,
Brown bananas, rotten peas,
Chunks of sour cottage cheese.
It filled the can, it covered the floor,

I pray I won't end up a grouchy old lady,
Recountng each ache and each pain
In intricate detail, to all who will listen,
While hoping some pity to gain.
I pray I"ll stay kind and be helpful to others,
While striving to put their needs first;
And that I will share the sweet story of Jesus
With all who now hunger and thirst.
I pray that as years take their measure upon me
And I grow more feeb...1 Recommendation6 Comments -
The Value of a Smile
It costs nothing, but creats much good. It
enriches those who recieve it without
improverishing those who give it away. It
happens in a flash but the memory of it can
last forever. No one is so rich that he can
get along without it. No one is too poor to
feel rich when receiving it. It creates
happiness in the home , fosters good will in
buisness, and is the countersign of fr...1 Recommendation4 Comments -
Thank You Lord. . .
Lord, thank you for this sink of dirty dishes;
We have plenty of food to eat.
Yhank you for this pile of dirty, stinky, laundry;
We have plenty of nice clothes to wear.
And I would like to thank you, Lord, for those unmade beds;
They were so warm and comfortable last night.
I know that many have no bed.
My thanks to you, Lord for this bathroom,
Completed with all the splattered ...2 Recommendations3 Comments -
Listen to Your Heart
It does't matter who you are,
Or what anyone says you should do,
When in doubt, listen to your heart
And it will lead you through.
Don't Hurry along your way,
Following someone else's lead.
Listen to your heart
And in time, yo will succed
Don't forsake good guidance
When it comes your way,
And if you listen to your heart
You will seldom go astray.
Good evening every ...1 Recommendation3 Comments -
Why worry about Tomorrow
And the rising of the sun,
Of anguish over past mistakes
That cannot be undone?
Why waste life's precious moments
On things that bruise the heart
When today is ours to fashion
Into a work of art?
Today comes once,my friend,
It never can return----
So use it wisely while you can,
There's a lesson you may learn.
Let history record the past
And tomorrow come what may..

no one to hold
no one for comfort
no one to wipe away my tears
loved ones distant and dark
pain my only fortress
my only escape
no one to hold
no one for comfort
no one to wipe away my tears
shrouded in shadow
losing conrtol
mind in shambles
no one to hold
no one for comfort
no one to wipe away my tears
my insides rotting
my heart splitting
blood pooling
No one to hold
no one for comfort
no one to wipe away my tea...1 Recommendation2 Comments -
Angel In Disguise
If an angel is someone
who is filled wih love,
it's a gift that they constantly share,
If an angel s someone
who looks out for
others and gives them
a nudge here or there,
If an angel is someone
who touches your life
with a heart that's
both joyful annd wise
Then even though you
don't have halo or wings
You're and angel in disguise!

I said a prayer for you today
and know God must have heard
I felt the answer in my heart
although He spoke no word.
I didn't ask for wealth or fame,
I knew you wouldn't mind,
I asked Him to send treasures
of a far more lasting kind.
I asked that He'd be near you at the
start of each new day,
To grant you health and blessings
and friends to share your way.
I asked for happiness for you in al...1 Recommendation2 Comments -
I am a writer. Poetry is my outlet. In retrospect of my life, these may help to explain my emotional state. These were written in April of this year. I've poetry that goes back YEARS, and it ALL follows a similiar pattern. The fact that I write these usually when I'm not hurting. When you get hit by that first tornado, your taken by the excitement and the adr...1 Recommendation1 Comment
