Dear God,
I hope you had a good day today,

Today I have families in my heart, and I want to share my thoughts and requests with you about all the daddies and mommies and children everywhere…,

I pray that you will help all the daddies to be poised in every way[including self-respect], to be strong, to be respectful, to be able at what they do, to be nice to their fellow-workers and their mean bosses, to betimes think of their children and their special mommy, and only her, not to be enticed by any other mommy and to smile inwardly and to send them loving, kind, gentle, happy thoughts…
Also dear God, I pray that when the daddies come home, they’re greeted with us children yelling:-“Yay! Daddy is home”, and with a special kiss from their special mommy that makes them all tingly inside…
Amen

Today, dear God, I also pray that you will help all the mommies, to be poised, to be nurturing, to be patient, to be wise, and strong, and also to respect themselves, and not to pay too much attention to their insecurities[like does daddy still love me? Of course he does, of course he does]. I know dear God that most mommies also have to go to work these days, and I ask that you mightily be with them there, and help them not to lose their femimininity[spelling mistake on purpose…] in this extremely yang world…
Also dear God, because mommies have sooo much to do these days,[too much], I pray that you will give them time to nurture themselves and put on their face mask, go the salon, etc., so that they can retain their outer beauty, even though their inner beauty always burns bright, mommies will become discouraged if their outer beauty does not keep up, and then they may begin to hide their inner beauty, and if that happens, you know and I know Lord, that the world is lost then…
Amen…


Lastly dear God, I pray for us children,
We’re so vulnerable, we need protection from so many things, we need guidance, we need nurturing, we need encouragement, and, of course we need happy daddies and happy mommies,
Because, as you know, we get our happiness from them dear lord…
Nevertheless, we are also tempted by many temptations that our mommies and daddies did not have in their day, too much violence on TV, violent computer games, porn on the internet, predators of every kind just waiting to prey on us…
Protect us from these ugly things dear lord…
But, dear God, don’t forget that we also need play and laughter and joy and peace and a strong feeling of security and above all, we need our mommies and daddies to teach us self-esteem, self-love, and the courage to pursue our dreams no matter how way out they may seem…

These things I ask dear Lord, as I now lay me down to sleep,
And I also pray for you dear God, ‘cause I know you have a lot to deal with as well, things like wars and floods and bad people who do not follow the way of love and peace,
God be with you too, dear God…
Thank you and bye for now,
Amen…

Sad and sorry sight you are
Sagging round the edges
Gutters hanging, rusted roof
Windows sightless staring
Mortar crumbling, cracking walls
Floorboards creaking, groaning
Weeds in garden overgrown
Fencing missing and broken

Yet there you sit so patiently
Waiting to be discovered
To dream a dream
And give you love
To bring you back to life
Once again a joyous home
For a brand new family

Seven-billion mark by Halloween; by
2050, estimated at three billion more.
Contemplate: what is our planet to do?
Will there be enough resources for me
– not to mention, what about for you?

Environmental damages, already great
from various agricultural endeavors
contribute oxygen-depleting gases
as global warming effects of weather
add fuel to the war of the classes.

Children should not be into poverty born
living lives as insurance premiums paid
to hedge parents’ bets against old age
as fertility rates drop for the wealthiest
leaving stunned demographers in a daze.

With two children per woman required
for population, in balance with needs, to remain
both too many and too few have costs to pay.
Those fighting family planning will eventually
see theirs and more lives crumble away.

Unless solutions, real, deal with the growth
we’ll crowd into spaces once human-free
as population explodes to numbers untold.
Then, we’ll understand the benefits many
of planned births and senses control.

Use less plastic straws
Use less plastic bags
Save the planet
Eat more fruits and vegetables so less cows and pigs are raised in factory farms
Watch Dr. Phil so i can be a more sensitive man
Walk more so my car doesn't spew out harmful toxins that cause global warming
Continue to have no kids so the world won't be overpopulated
Don't hunt so wild animals can live in peace
Don't drive after dark in rural areas so I don't hit deer with my car
If the water's yellow let it mellow, if the water's brown, flush it down
Follow and support Greta Thunberg
Eat foods that arn't wrapped in plastic as much as possible
Keep myself informed on global warming and polar bears

Cradled and comfortable for death
I wept, I wept and cried a sleepless pain
And the empty darkness consumed the rain
For which I'm known
I'm born I'm killed I'm dead, I'm dead
I'm you if you were me
I'm every life ended in pain
I'm every life ended in pain

End it in pain

Unaccepted, I don't want to fight you
The emptiness is filled with the absence of light
I'm young I'm old I'm inbetween
And everone is affraid of things they dream
I can't life but I don't want to die
I don't have what it takes to even try
I'm the sadness in your eyes
I'm the sadness in childrens eyes

In childrens lies

Litigation, Don't make me beg
Acting as if nothing was ever said
I'm dead, I'm dead in an open grave
And when the sun came out thay made me their slave
I'm you if you were me
I'm you if you were free

Tis a good day to join a small Klatsch
to share some cookies by the batch
social problems can be solved
by united efforts of resolve
to fix by our 'action' not verbal patch.

Greed

Just outside, cool grass under my feet
The smell of orchids pungent, but sweet
The stars above look so bright
Look like beacons in the night
A glass of wine, a simple stroll
These are what soothe my troubled soul
Keeps me safe from stress of life
Allows me to sleep well at night
Not all can see the simple path
They make a choice, leave before the aftermath
Who cares about what happens tomorrow
As long as today, there is no sorrow
Rape the land need to feed
Life driven by simple greed
Don’t care what will happen to the most
As long the accolades for me they toast
These are the things that most will treasure
Material possessions not simple pleasure
How shallow are the well conceived
Mix with ones driven by greed
Worship their god who preaches about wealth
Then practice their trade with lies and stealth
Take down the innocent, take down the old
Got no morals, but look at my gold

The knowledge I have given man
empowers him
to chart his own destiny
Will it be for his betterment
or his detriment
I can only wait and see

War On Want

Look at war, if that is your taste
and deny to me that it is a human waste,
not war of battles and killing and dying
but war of want and suffering and trying!

Because survival is life's only real aim
for rich or for poor the end is the same,
yet if this is true, why so much greed
when people grab more than they need?

While people like you and people like me
smugly sit on the fence and refuse to see
the war on want that goes on everywhere
simply saying "I'm glad I'm not there!"

War is bad,

Because like, guys die,

And mums cry,

And Grans too,

And like, war is bad,

Because people get hurt,

And children cry,

That's why war is bad
