  • GUN CONTROL SOCIETY TRIGGER IT FIRES OFF BEFORE ALL ELSE, GET REAL


    CAN MAN CONTROL CRIME,
    NOT WHEN HE IS THE CRIMINAL ?
    SOCIETY HOLDS THEM IN LOCK UP,
    WAITING TO BLAME THEIR ILLS.
    IT IS SOCIETY WHO IS IN LOCK DOWN.
    WAITING TO ESCAPE THEIR ILLS.
    I SEE A VICIOUS CIRCLE WE ARE ALL IN.
    IT WILL TAKE ALL OF US,
    TO BREAK THE RING.


    MAN INVENTED THE GUN
    THOUGH HE CANNOT CONTROL ITS FORCE.
    NOR THE IMPACT IT WOULD HAVE.

    I FIRER OFF MY WILL
    AND HIT BLAME.
    NOW WHO IS GOING
    TO TAKE AIM ?
    SOCIETY PULLED THE TRIGGER.
    THE LAW TOOK THEIR SHOT
    I WAS CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE.

    GUN CONTROL SOCIETY TRIGGER, IT FIRES OFF BEFORE ALL ELSE

    YOU CAN’T BANNED CRIMINALS

    WHEN THEY BANNED THE LAWS.

    THERE ARE LOOPHOLES
    TO JUMP THROUGH IT ALL.

    THE FIRST WILL BE SOCIETY,

    WHERE THEN IS THE LAWS ?

    JUMPING HOOPS,
    TO KEEP UP WITH IT ALL.

    POEATREEMAN

    SHOW ME A CRIMINAL
    WHO OBEYS THE LAW.

    IT WOULD BE A CRIME
    NOT TO HONOR THEIR CAUSE.

    GET REAL

    NATIONS
    PREPARE FOR WAR.

    GUNS ARE ONLY
    PART OF THE STORE.

    SOCIETY PREPARES
    FOR CHAOS,

    USES GUNS
    TO RESTORE.

    CONTROL MAN
    WE MAY YET SURVIVE.

    LET HIM USE WISDOM
    THROW THE GUN ASIDE.

  • THE WORLD ONE SECOND TOO LATE

    I AM A DOER I AM A THINKER. IF I DO NOTHING WHAT AM I DOING ?


    WAKE UP WORLD IT IS BURNING NOW.
    TAKE A HAND AND HELP IT OUT.
    IT WILL TAKE ALL OF US TO STAMP IT OUT
    HATRED IS A BURNING HOUSE
    IT TAKES OUR HOME & OUR HEARTS.
    LEAD'S US WITH NOTHING, ONLY WASTE.
    LOVE MUST BE THE FIREMEN
    WHO KEEPS IT OUT.

    SO TAKE YOUR HEART , PUT IT OUT.

  • A ROSE A FLOWER FOR THE HEART: LOVE BLOSSOMS

    A Rose

    A Symbol of a Rose
    The flower of our love.

    A thorn to pierce
    the strongest heart.

    A petal  to feel
    your velvet  walls
    A stem
    to see it all together.

    A Rose
    to see
    the heart it holds
    A flower to see
    it bloom forever.

    A Rose
    that takes
    my breath away
    A scent that draws
    me into her.

    A fragrance
    of sweet delight.

    A Rose
    that finds me
    in her spell
    A Rose
    I'll hold for life..

    A Poeatreeman
                  
    A Flower
    for the Heart.

    A flower faced
    with life
    Will surely feel.
    The petals fall.

    A flower faced
    with heart
    Will surely
    feel it all.

    A flower
    faced
    with tenderness
    Will never
    feel the cold.

    A flower
    faced with care
    Will still have
    thorns to bare.

    A flower
    will always
    blossom
    When love
    is nurtured
    by care.

    A flower
    fed on tears
    will nourish,
    The Rose
    for years..

    The dew
    on its petals
    Are the
    teardrops.

    Raining
    on love.

    reflecting
    the feelings
    Shown to love.

    The freshness.

    Will
    stay as long
    as loved.

    A Rose
    will never
    be old
    For love
    is young..

    It is in
    our memories
    That
    reminds us.

    A flame
    is forever young.

    Remember!

    The first sparks
    It burned
    within you.

    Fervent
    as
    the morning sun.

    Moistened
    by the dew
    Resting
    on its petals.

    It quenched,

    It's thirst
    for you.

    The
    nectar
    of sweet love.

    Longing
    to draw you in.

    Touching
    you forever.

    For you let it in.

    WHAT PRICE LOVE?


    What is the Price
    of Love?       


    When a Heart
    bleeds
    from Tears and Hurt


    Torn
    from itself
    Ripped with Pain


    Left
    to Heal the Hurt


    Pain
    is not the Worst


    I Felt it all,
    Tears and Aches


    The Cares
    that Came
    Left their Marks


    The Words
    that Said it
    all too Well


    I Care
    not Love you
    til the End


    Yet
    Love will Hold
    it all inside


    Taking
    it to the Bitter End


    Why
    does Love
    Hold on to me?


    I Gave
    it Heart
    When no one did


    I Took
    it in
    Shared its Love


    I Felt
    it all
    Both Soft and Sweet


    I Felt
    the Bitterness
    when
    Things went wrong


    I Felt
    the Pain
    wrenching
    through my Soul


    Oh !
    I would
    not give it up
    for Gold


    This Treasure
    that Showed me
    just what I have


    A Life
    to find it
    just One more Time


    This Sweetness
    that is more
    than Gold


    One Heart
    is all
    I need to Hold


    It Fills
    me with
    the Price of Love


    The Cares
    to know
    when I am Loved


    The Pain
    that Lets me
    know I Cared


    The Happiness
    I have
    when I Shared


    The Sorrow
    knowing
    Love can Hurt


    The Tears
    showing
    the Birth of Love.


    A THOUGHT!

    Life
    is the Chest I Hold


    Al I Have
    will not be Gold


    Yet
    Precious it will be
    just to Hold


    To find Love
    that will Carry through


    To Open up
    Share in its Wealth


    To
    Have once is Wealth untold.


    Dedicated To Pamela

    A Poeatreeman
       
    There is
    only one Hear

    I Care to Love


    The one
    that God
    brought to me


    There is
    only one Heart,
    I can
    Share in its Wealth


    The World
    that Holds
    a place for me


    There is only
    one Care,
    that will Carry
    me through


    To Care for it
    in all I do.

    FOR THE COST OF LOVE
    IS PAID WITHIN.
    CARE SPENDS IT
    ON SORROW.
    THE BALANCE LEFT

    THE CHANGES IT HAS
    IS HAPPINESS AND JOY.

    SPEND IT WISELY
    FOR THE COST

    Through the night.

    He wakes me
    In the morning Light.

    To see another day.

    Giving  me the chance
    To find His way.
