  • TRY: DON'T QUIT: WHAT I WON'T


    FLYING HIGH
    IF I REACH MY DREAM, WILL I FLY, ONLY IF I TRY.
    FAILURE IS ALWAYS IN THE WIND
    LET IT RIDE AND FLY WITH YOU
    FOR IT WILL LET YOU TOUCH THE SKY
    ONLY IF YOU LET IT TRY.

    WHO’S ON TOP ?

     
       

    TRY IS

    THE MOUNTAIN

    THAT FAILURE

    WOULDN’T CLIMB.

    WILL IS

    THE CLIMBER

    WHO  CANNOT

    WAIT !!

    TO TRY.


    POET'S NOTE


    ONE WILL REACH

    THEIR INNER SOUL

    ONE WILL STAY

    IN THE HOLE.

     

    ONE WILL KNOW

    THEY DID NOT TRY..

    ONE WILL REACH

    BEYOND THE STARS.


    ONE WILL WONDER

    EACH DAY OF LIFE..

     

    ONE WILL FIND

    THEIR STEPS ARE RIGHT..

     

    A POEATREEMAN

    WHO'S ON TOP ?

    EACH STEP WHO TRIES
    TO DO THEIR BEST
    .

    EACH FAILURE
    WHO FINDS SUCCESS.

    DON’T QUIT

    When Failure Reaches
    Your Door Step

    Push Ahead and Try

    It is only When
    You Close the Door

    You Fail to even Try.

    WHAT I WON'T
    BELIEVE
    IS THAT I CAN'T.

    WHAT I CAN'T
    BELIEVE
    IS THAT I WON'T.

    WHAT I WILL
    BELIEVE

    TRY
    DOES NOT
    ALWAYS SUCCEED.

    STILL I BELIEVE
    I MUST TRY.

    FOR WHERE IS LIFE

  • JUSTICE: A SCALE FOR JUSTICE


    JUSTICE IS SERVED BY THE RIGHT HAND
    FOR IT KNOWS THE OTHER.

    THE LEFT HAND KNOWS, WHAT THE RIGHT IS DOING.

    JUSTICE

        
    Justice is not
    A Knight of Shining Armor

    But a Knight
    Who takes the Darkest trails

    Truth is his Armor,
    Justice his Shield

    Lies and Deceptions
    are his Foes

    Injustice
    Is not equal to his Task

    Yet he will come
    To face the hordes

    Inequality
    Will strike at his Heart

    Not all the Force
    Will take him Down.

    Yet he will say
    Justice is all.

    For I am not who I am
    If I strike against the cause.

    I am Justice
    I must serve all.

    The God
    Who brought me here

    Will be the Judge of us all

    I serve Him
    and Justice is the cause.

    If I am blind
    it is not because
    I cannot see

    But man covered its eyes

    Justice is God's,
    Truth the Sword

    Knighted
    For I am on a quest .

    To open their eyes

    I am embattled by man

    But will last       

    Till the end of Time.

    DEDICATED TO
    BILL MADISON

    A Poeatreeman

    The First Justice
    Is the Truth that is God

    The Second Justice
    Is when all will be Judged.

    A SCALE FOR JUSTICE


    If I can balance with temperance
    I can scale man's faults

    If I can have justice
    I will balance the loss

    If I can judge wrong
    Truth would be the scale

    If I can
    It's only because of God

    If I judge
    Let justice not be the fault

    If I am judged
    Let justice speak its heart.

    A Poeatreeman

    Truth
    I must weigh all of man ,
    If I am to balance the scale.

    REMEMBER ME

                     
    When love passes
    Remember Me

    The way
    it used to be

    When day passes
    into night

    As twilight falls
    and you're asleep

    Remember
    the dreams
    we use to have

    How we hoped
    to make it true

    Remember
    all the things
    we did

    How we were
    when we
    were together

    Remember
    all the love
    we had

    How we felt
    for one another

    Remember
    all the tears
    we shared

    How we laughed
    at each other

    Remember
    all our pain
    and sorrows

    How we hurt
    one another

    Remember
    the love
    we had before

    How we thought
    it would
    last forever

    For I Remember
    all we did

    Still I wish
    we were together

    Most of all
    I Remember you

    With Love,
    Tears, and a Smile

    For all these things
    are you

    Each time
    I think of you

    I Remember
    how it use to be

    Hope you are,
    Remembering
    Me..

    WISDOM

     
    I cannot change
    what will be
    The tide
    is not with me

    I cannot change
    the ocean
    The current
    will sweep its way

    I cannot change
    the sea
    The force
    will go their way

    I cannot change
    the stream
    The flow
    will seek the river

    I cannot change
    the season
    For nature
    has her display

    I cannot change
    the time
    For the hands
    are wound by life

    I cannot change
    the laws of God
    For they are written,
    no force can change

    I cannot change
    existence
    For I exist
    to bring on change

    I cannot change
    unless
    I see the wisdom...

    A Poeatreeman

    The only things I should change
    Are the changes who will bring me good
    The only change not right
    Are the one changing all the good.

    THE MAST

     
    It's not
    The Roughs
    Not the Storms

    It's the Sinking
    That will
    Take me Down.


    Battered and Torn
    I am Still
    In One Piece

    My Mast
    May not be
    As it was Before.


    Cracking
    From all the Waves
    That Hit

    I Felt the Current
    Coursing Through.


    Changing me
    To New Directions.


    What Seas that Lie
    Beneath my Ship

    What Broken Vessels
    Will I Keep.


    To Sail across
    The Seas of Life?

    What Makes
    My Mast
    Strong and Right?


    A THOUGHT!

    Am I
    That Tall Ship
    From Long Ago

    Or just
    A Mask
    of Weathered Storms

    Showing
    All its Breakage?


    Dedicated To Richard

    A Poeatreeman

    One Course,
    Will not let me
    Go Aground.

    One will Take me,
    Through all Storms.

    One will Keep me,
    From Breaking up.

    One will Show me,
    The Northern Lights.

    Will Speak Of My Journey.
