Second chances

Only human, that is who I am....
Lost at sea....drifting wood....swallowed by waves....crushing over me....choices was made.....wrongly accused....loved by few.....broken by millions....walls was build with bricks that turned into steel....loneliness eats away like razor sharp teeth.....dreaming and wishing for a second chance....to be truly loved & accepted with all my flaws.

It is about myself....life's choices and supposedly loved one's that turned out to be in love with their own reflections.

Black Night

Black night, black thoughts merging into one
No sword shall sever this gordian knot
that binds my being in longing and despair

My tortured soul cries out
filled with a longing to crush
the things that torment me so

I see them with the mind's eye
and would strangle them
but they recede into the shadows
to mock me anew in ripened time

But now let my soul be at rest
even for a fleeting moment
for I am finally free

Free!
The very sound is music to my ear
filling the mind with such fantasies
that leap to the heavens
and leaves me panting just alive

As a man who is spent I rest
and waves of gentleness flood my soul

The thought of a tender kiss
the smell of a rose, Jove's nectar
soothes my being and sets my soul at ease
to gather up courage
to face another day

Crying

Hush little baby don't you cry.....my mom used to sing and I always wondered why shouldn't I cry when I feel I need to? Kids cry when they fall and need mommy to kiss it better....youngsters cry over heartaches or losing a dear friend....Grown-ups cry when they are happy/sad/frustrated.....I tend to cry alone where nobody can see my tears....I miss having a shoulder to lean on....and I really miss your handkerchief you dried my tears with....it always was "there" with you holding on to me promised that all will be well! You were and always will be the "one true love" of my life.....I miss you-until we meet again!

GOD LOVES YOU

God made and loves you the way you are

To Him you are one of His shining stars


He gave you a talent special for you

Ask Him to guide you in everything you do.


When you are scared or alone in the dark

Remember He loves and is with you no matter what

ETERNAL CROSS

Embedded image from another site


Jesus died and left us the gift of forgiveness
Making a way for all his children to Heaven

There will be no beginning and no end
Just like the Eternal Cross continuous bends

All we need to do is accept Him as our Savior
His love for us will never waiver

Counting

counting days in somber dreams
wildflowers, butterflies and bees
the truth of this fallen world
just takes me to my knees

counting money and pennies
bonds, stocks and trusts
all games played by the elites
despicable venues that disgusts

counting lives that are destroyed
in laws, mandates and evil plans
sly and deliberately deployed
blood dripping from their hands

counting the ones still standing
with pain, sickened and lost
a war of lies against the people
and our freedom has been the cost

counting days until we awake
knowing, living and well
for love, peace and blessing
is our natural state to dwell

April Fools

April Fools jokes are fun to pull
I did two songs from the movie Step Brothers with Will Ferrell
Billy Joel's Keeping the Faith, and The Longest Time
Which are sung in the movie by a group called Uptown Girl Claps from my friend and the DJ, and nothing, nada from the audience
I did one at a company meeting a few years ago
The manager said does anyone have any questions
I said, I parked my car illegally, only because the guy in front of me did too
How many times can I do that before something bad happens
She said Three

April Fools was this past Monday, most of the time I don't pull any jokes on people, just afraid of the payback I guess.

Stairway

There's this interesting Stairway made of stone, that has many levels.

The top level is smooth and well kept, many people have been there.

The middle level has a few cracks and patches of moss, but you can still walk without falling.

The lowest level is where you have to tread carefully, many crack's, lot's of moss and you can fall off easily.

But the few people who take the time to get to the bottom of the strairs, who have the patience to walk slowly and learn the staircase, they get to see the gentle garden where wonder and magic can be found.

Easter 2024

This world we live in
has become crazier...
where tradition... values & morals
have been eroded ever so faster...
It's up to each of us
to hold faith and set anchor
to the core that has shaped us better...
So we can without hesitation and shame...
celebrate spiritual holidays like CHRISTmas
and this Blessed EASTER ...
For whatever changes life can bring ,
to unwaveringly keep the same...
those things worth cherishing ... worth standing for...
according to their true essence,
without hesitation or regret, evermore ...

Work Related Issues - The Sort That Knows Sam

1. There was a job I had use 2 work years ago
this one young lady had given me a write-up.
Too many times those chutes got overloaded.
No where 4 the excess boxes 2 go.
On one side in this very busy warehouse
there were three-chutes.

3. I had stacked 2 sets of boxes on each side of one chute,
grand total to 6-separate plastic crate stacks of boxes.

4. I'm not ashamed of the write-up
there was some time she was off work
and 2 other people I had seen had done the same thing.
Where is there any justice in that?
I'm wondering is it because my skin color?

5. All I had repeated my friend had told me when he was watching the news,
the news had reported that 6-women had got killed.
I had told one of the Ladies at work I had worked with,
she should take self defense classes and Martial Arts,
She called that "PERSONAL!"

6. You know I would hate 2 see and hear this story repeated
in a way that would shame and embarrass her next 10
generations of fathers, as written as 'PERSONAL.'
With so much writing this Tombstone,
all that writing on that Tombstone had caught
every ones seeing eyes.

7. For Example: Teenage girl Paige grand kid was talking
2 her teenage girlfriend Phoebe.
"Do U want the next generation of your family 2 find out
what was written on your Grandmothers Tombstone?"

Phoebe: "I did have an awful dream about your grandmother's Tombstone."
Paige: "Was there anything written on it?"
Phoebe: "yes there was."
Paige: "what did it say?"

8. Phoebe: "There was a man that was sent 2 your grandmother
in her much younger years, it was told that he had encouraged her
to take self-defense and Martial-Arts which would serve 2 protect herself."
"In her city women were being killed in numbers not one by one anymore."
She refused and had called it PERSONAL."
"This was written on her Tombstone in very small writing
short story of her life before her death."
Paige: "Was there anything else written on her Tombstone
as her moral final fatality?"

Phoebe: "this writing was in bigger black shiny letters everyone that
had walked into the graveyard, they were all flocking to this
one Tombstone."
"This Tombstone had reflected bright every time the sun had shown
it's light upon it."

Phoebe: "HERE LIES GRANDMOTHER CRUELA DE VIL
SHE DIDN'T TAKE LAW ENFORCEMENT'S ADVICE,
A SERIAL RAPIST HAD ENDED HER LIFE ENDED HER LAST WALKING FOOT STEP."
THE FAMILY ENCOURGES ALL FATHER'S DAUGHTERS
IN THE WORLD THAT ARE STILL LIVING ABOVE GROUND,
"PLEASE DO NOT FOLLOW GRANDMOTHER CRUELA DE VIL
YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE YOUR LAST WALKING FOOT STEP."

Phoebe: "it must have been a past tense dream,
I remember walking past a graveyard, I had seen a lot of people
gathered around this one Tombstone, I was curious, I had turned around
the other way I was walking and I had walked in to see what this crowd
of people were looking at and what they were talking about to each other."
"That's how I had found out about "Grandmother Cruella De Vil."

Paige: "they end-up there sometimes too early
in their graveyard."
Phoebe: "Why?"
Paige: "My daddy being Chief of Police said, there's a number
of women in the U.S. that think they know-it-all."
"My daddy remembers talking to a woman she flipped out on him
after she heard him advising her to take self-defense,
then my daddy said the very next day that same woman he had talked to
prior had ended-up in the hospital Morgue."

Paige: My dad being Chief of Police had inquired
"how did this woman end-up here in the hospital morgue?"
The Coroner said, "She was raped and killed
her body was found at the bottom of a deep pond"
"She was from a different county someone from that county
had called the police reporting they had seen someone get out
of a van and dump something in the water, it was dark they said,
this home owner had a set of binoculars."
"Our hospital sits between the county line
for both counties."

About this poem:
1. IF U SEE THIS POEM IT WILL REMIND U OF WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO ME
ON THE JOB ON BRAVO'S ISLAND YEARS AGO.
I HAD FORGIVEN HER FOR GIVING ME A WRITE-UP
LETS FACE-IT SHE HAD MESSED-UP PRETTY BAD.
I ASK U NOT TO FIRE HER PLEASE BEAR IN MIND
WHEN SOMEONE IS LEARNING HOW TO LANDSCAPE
IN THE PROCESS OF LEARNING I'VE SEEN PEOPLE MAKE MISTAKES,
THAT DOESN'T THAT YOU FIRE THEM JUST PLEASE CHOOSE TO HAVE PATIENE WITH THEM.
LEARNING A NEW JOB AND IF U WANT TO BE SHARP ON THAT JOB,
THEN IT REQUIRES SACRIFICE ON YOUR PART -- PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT.

SO MANY JOBS WAY BACK I HAD USE TO BE A BOSS...

2. All these poems and stories to those people that are writing books,
and movies you can have these poems and stories,
I'm not even in the least bit to get copy-rights on these stories and poems.
Make money off of it if you want to,
all I care about if you're writing please keep writing.
You get the copy rights to it, it's yours.
Just remember it's first come first serve
in other words it's like you're in a running race to be the first
to cross the finish line.
If you're quick before anyone else you will be the first one
to get, to have and own the copy rights to these poems and stories.
