06 September 07 - 17:57The Son’s Promise
"God's Private Thoughts"
Imagine as God,
You know beforehand
The errors
Made by mankind;
You can see
The end of their days
You do not need to take any surveys,
So to you, anything man does is no mystery.
Your people,
Swaying in their ways,
Lacking in faith,
And in such a hurry
Chasing money
To make claims on
Materialistic possessions,
So as to substitute
The Lord’s intentions:
You knew that to worship anything but the Lord
Was a sin.
Accordingly,
You see your people
In so much despair,
Lacking in direction
No longer having inspiration,
Yet knowing that
Even as God;
You could not
Step in.
This was fitting
Because a promise had been made
By your begotten son. ...

September Eleven
A bad day for everyone
With decades of politics
That ended up in dismay
No one could ever say
There was a worse day,
Not even, “Pearl Harbor Day.”
All the people that made this day
By giving out sacrifices
On that atrocious day,
We will never forget them
For what they did
And what this meant
To us all.
We will always give them
The same merit
As we would give soldiers
That died
While defending our country.
We will forever keep
Their actions sacred.
Put them all
In the “Hall of Fame.”
Their sacrifices resulted in death;
We will never forget what they did.
They will always be missed,
Get full credit
By not just us
But by all other Vets;
As well as by the rest
Of the world. ...

This is a poem
That can never
Have a sequel
Unless the topic material
Includes the news
Of the capture or death
Of Osama Bin Laden;
All of the Al-Qaida cells,
And any other terrorists
That are still among the living.
This is a verse
That hopefully
Will have no purpose
To be re-written.
We cannot afford
A repeat in this history lesson.
All were heroes
On September eleven
And for what they did
They will certainly make it to heaven.
This book is dedicated
To the family and friends
Of the deceased ones,
To the citizens,
The private and public sector
Who all showed
How much they cared
By what they did
And what they gave up.
We can only guess
How much they will all be missed
And how much
The family and loved ones wishes

03 September 07 - 00:00A Forever Key Around Our Hearts
How could one not know
What was to become
Nor see any of the signs
Remain a mystery to me.
How could one not know
Their own minds
Is puzzling to me.
Especially, for people like
You and me.
There was a time before
When I saw you
My face lit up and glowed
But when I didn't see you
I missed you an awful lot.
We had fun
Back then
Even without talks.
Now though,
Everything is falling apart,
As we both have put
Back up our guards
And a forever key
Around our hearts.

30 August 07 - 05:43Mother Nature's Response
Mother Nature and Her crafts,
Hear the plants scream
Look at the grass.
Hear the trees cry
As mankind scoffs and laughs
As if,
He had nothing to do with this.
Bitter—surrender,
Feel a tree’s death
By looking at its lines
Where it starts and where it ends.
Watch the leaves fall
Not just in spring or autumn,
But more often
Like all four seasons.
A bittersweet kiss and say goodbye
As
A weed’s tears
After endless years
Wonders why
If others are still around
For Mother Nature,
Then why am I
No longer to be found?
A new twist:
Mother Nature is not forgiving.
Indeed, no more rest areas
Will we need.
Not fond memories
Will this twist bring.
The grass’s fierce heat,
The forest parks dream
Now turns into a ...

29 August 07 - 18:50Too Much Too Many
Witnessing a loved one’s time being robbed
And stripped from their prime
Is a curse I have endured for too long
And a weight I have carried one too many times.
Since thus far,
I am of the youngest siblings still alive,
And this occurrence
Has continued to slip by
Without anyone’s notice
One too many times;
But then again
One is too many. Even recollections
Of such events
Stay up with me sunrise to sunset;
While the little sleeps that I do get,
Dreams of loss and death:
Two separate dealings
Consume me,
Thus never am I allowed to forget
Of this nightly dread.
Perchance, once I am rid
Of all my regrets
I will be permitted again
To join the land
Of the living and
Leave the thoughts of the dead. ...

29 August 07 - 18:44Journey from Beginning to End
Calm, your life will remain
As you spread your secret of success
To your friends and to your enemies
About my domain.
Once truth is revealed−
How your journey started
And how it ended
Then others alike can commence
Towards their new begin.
Hence this is my intention.
Make sure they pay attention
As you tell them
About your adventures
From sins of flesh
To being saved;
Leave it up to them
On what is meant.
They too shall find
What they have to face.
All of my children
Have struggles;
The journey for some is long.
Alas, it is the difference
Between right and wrong.
Tell them what you went through
While on that rollercoaster ride;
Explain to them your before and after
So they understand the stakes.
The journey for all will be alike. ...
