My Favourite Quote

HEAVEN'S HEROES


All of heaven’s heroes have suffered remorse
From hate, fear, lust, loneliness and war.
They do what they do with deliverance of heart
Defeating the dark side of life and more.


THE BELL RINGERS OF THE SOUL


Poets are the bell ringers of the soul
As they depict the past, the present and beyond.
They sound their alarm of what lies ahead
As the missteps of man live on.


HEAVEN'S GATE


With one foot in heaven and one down on earth
I pray to be remembered and judged by my worth.
If I’m forced to camp, just outside your gate
I will still be grateful and not, “hesitate.”


SELF SERVING FOOLS


No matter how far in your marriage you've gone
The highway of love has its rules.
The excitement of sex, trust and affection
Never tolerates self-serving fools.


FOREVER MORE


I love to be loved in the morning
I love to be loved at night.
I love to be loved anytime
For love in the darkness is light.


LOVE AND LIFE


With one foot in the future
And one foot in the past,
Let us try to live our days
As though each was our last.


FREEDOM


America has survived all attempts to destroy
Knowing the cruelty of war,
And, we who remain
Must help keep her free
For those who can march no more!


A GOOD POEM


A good poem paints a picture
For both your heart and brain.
It doesn't need a second chance
To make its meaning plain.


HOW LUCKY I'VE BEEN


Wise men learn more from watching fools
Than fools do from watching wise men.
I should know for I've been both.
I can 't believe how lucky I've been.


BIRDS


Birds are really quite remarkable,
When left alone to do their thing.
We have robbed their eggs and plucked their plumage,
And yet they continue to sing.


FAITH


Our confidence and trust in a higher power,
Helps guide us through every moment and hour.
Fidelity to ones promise and observance of law,
Lets our Lord know we heed his call.


HISTORY


Some have asked why must we study history;
It just encourages us to live in the past.
When we forget history we repeat its mistakes,
As the outcome of humanity is cast.


RESOLUTE


May God continue to bless America
Refusing evil, the upper hand.
It’s up to us to stay resolute
Defending the liberty of Man.


FORGIVE ME


I love you and I need you,
It's a fact and not a lie,
So if you plan to punish me,
Say anything, but good bye.


FRIENDSHIP


Better is a good friend in the house next door,
Than brothers and sisters who are far away.
The spirit of man needs the help of its friends,
To face all the problems of each fleeting day.


SPRING


Gone till next year, are winters cold days of chill,
While the fever of love hits the ground on the run.
There's heavenly splendor wherever we look,
As earth is warmed by the rays of the sun.


FLOWERS


King Solomon spoke of earth’s flowers in the Bible,
And that where they appear the birds begin to sing.
The voices of love can be heard across the land,
And that lilies and roses are a sacred thing.


LOVE & ELECTRICITY


Love and electricity are a lot alike
For we never seem to miss them till their gone.
We need both, every day of our life,
And even more so between twilight and dawn.


SMILE


The one thing that goes the furthest
Towards making our lives more worthwhile,
Which costs the least but does the most,
Is the sight of a friendly smile.


ADVICE


Those who wish to advise others
Should practice what they preach,
For their pupils need inspiring
To listen to what they teach.


MY WIFE


Heaven won't be heaven
If I don 't see you there,
May the first to go
Be me, is my prayer.


FLIGHT


Nothing else man can conceive,
Is more luring than God's sky.
To be as one with the stars
Is the wish of all who fly.


TWILIGHT


The twilight is first evening's bell
A time of peace when all is well.
Another day has come and gone
Not to return until the dawn.


EYES OF LOVE


Eyes that twinkle, I distrust,
For they are the distant stars.
Eyes in love have a steady glow
Like Venus, the Moon or Mars.


MY FAVORITE


My favorite poet is our father of love
Who was first to know us before birth.
His poetry prolongs every thing we love
As his deliverance gives life its worth.


INTEGRITY


What Satan has planned for our harm,
Integrity will transform to good.
Adhering to morals gives us peace,
Teaching us to respond, as we should.


FORMIDABLE FOE


America is the birthday cake of earth,
As the ants march from every direction.
Thank God for all who have sworn to defend her,
Serving with love, honor, pride, and affection.


PEACE


War is an emotional release for man,
Practiced since the first stones were cast.
Could it be nature's way of thinning the numbers,
As the fallen are consumed by the past.


ORDINARY MOMENTS


Even ordinary moments
Aren't the same any more.
Together we have so much
To plan, accomplish and explore.


DIVINE INTERVENTION


What would our world become,
Without intervention from above?
Angry beings in a revolving cage,
With no sense of passion or love.



AMERICAN SOLDIER


Our soldiers line up to be remembered
As the best of the best at their job.
They wish to be needed and depended on
To save all we love from the mob.

They risk their life and limb for liberty
Standing firm against evil unwilling to break.
To be part of something greater than themselves
They are willing to sacrifice whatever it will take.


MYSTICAL JOURNEY


After death who will miss us
When to heaven we have gone?
Will family cry our name in tears
As in their hearts we live on?


WAR


When war breaks out, boundaries change
And all who die are a token,
Of the rage that must run it's course,
Before words of peace are spoken.


LOVE


Love, indeed, descends from heaven,
Like a shooting star across the sky.
Love sometimes stirs the dust,
Till tears fall free from the eye.


FAME


Those who wish to be, not forgotten,
Just days after they're dead and gone,
Must write such things worth remembering
Or commit acts, worth passing on.


ROSES


The poet Horace once expressed
That roses were worth more than grain,
Seed fills a hungry man's stomach
Where roses feed his heart and brain.

We shall seek them out wherever they may hide,
Street by street, house-by-house, cave by cave.
They will be eradicated from the face of the earth
By the righteous, the loyal and the brave.


THE SEED OF LOVE


The Lord planted love within mankind's heart,
Though things can grow sour when from” Him” we depart.
Love and hate are but two sides of life's golden coin,
So be ready for both no matter whom you join.


CONSCIENCE


Our conscience makes us righteous,
It's a whisper of god in man.
For without it we're mere puppets
Who dance to the devil's hand.


SORROW


Sorrow is better than laughter
For by grieving, we're improved.
Blessed be all who morn,
Till from sadness they're removed


OUR FLAG


Wars were waged where brave men died
As patriots fought side by side.
Our flag is still the pearl of earth,
Because of those who prove her worth.



TROUBLES


Mankind is born from a woman’s womb
With a short life that's full of trouble.
Faith is our refuge in times of woe,
For without it our troubles double.

Better is a good friend in the house next door,
Than brothers and sisters who are far away.
The spirit of man needs the help of its friends,
To face all the problems of each fleeting day.


WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE


The wise listen to increase their learning,
Where the scorners of wisdom close their mind.
The hearts of the prudent gather knowledge,
For a soul without grace becomes confined.


WHY?


The biggest question of life is "why?"
The wrath of man is always in season,
Why is our world the way it is
Like a tragic poem without rhyme or reason.


THE MOON


From the very first time man took refused,
And peered out at the moon in the night.
Acts of love, lust, hate and human sorrow,
Have been committed in the presence of its light.


THE ARMOR OF GOD


Eagerly plotting to disrupt God's works,
Evil swallows up souls like the shifting sand.
The armor of God is our divine protection,
Shielding every child, woman, and man.


POLITICIANS


Most of the time as a politician stands up,
Along with the truth, their brain sits down.
Promising anything and everything to anyone,
While posing to the public, to be on common ground.
