Cupcakes Song
The eyes are the window to your soul Looking into the eyes of a person You see the beauty within that person When you look into the eyes of that special person It feels like they are drawing your soul Like an incubus who draws the life from their victim You cannot look away from beautiful eyes Their body does not matter because the eyes capture you

The Eyes
I try to express myself with my words I try to put my thoughts into my words I try to inspire with my words I try to help with my words I try to educate with my words I try to pass along wisdom with my words I try to solve problems with my words I try to show different viewpoints with my words I try to show love with my words

So many times I see people, who treat pets as humans, Then I see people who treat people worse than animals How is it that we humans can have so much love for animals? And have so little compassion or love for Humans? We see cats & dogs of all sizes and shapes We see people with reptiles, turtles, snakes, lizards We see people with fish, birds, tarantulas and mice Yet some of these people are hateful when it comes to work Some of these people are racist and hate other humans Yet these people have been bitten by dogs and cats While people just try to be friends and work with them I sometimes believe that we need to learn to treat people right Before looking for a pet…

Pets & People
Our government wrote a constitution to prevent violation of individual rights Separation of church and state was included in the constitutional rights We must look at why this was so important to the founders of this nation In England the King wanted a divorce, the Pope refused to grant this The King then took over the Religion for the country appointing himself leader Our forefathers did not want the same type of control to happen in this country At the time our schools had few books. Everybody had a bible though So the primary reader for our early school system was the bible The Judicial System has done the very thing that the founders tried to prevent. We cannot teach our children the most basic rules of life, the Ten Commandments Perhaps if we taught from the bible, we would have fewer problems in this country.

Constitutional Rights or Wrongs?
Each of us has an option of paths in front of us Some choose easier paths others harder paths Each path we choose leads to another path Some paths lead to failure, some to success As we travel the path of life, we will find more paths If we despair and stop taking paths we achieve failure If we look for the next path, we continue on the path We each must choose our own path in life Our struggles along the paths lead to wisdom For as we learn from our mistakes, we gain wisdom.

Oh to go back To the time of innocence When we did not know Pain, abuse, and hate No worries Looking forward To a life filled with wonder

Innocence
We see millions of people coming over our southern border Millions of people are here illegally some through no fault of their own When your parents bring you here as a child you have no say When you are born in this nation from illegal parents it is not your fault Our government works on the principle that we need to return them They want to build a fence to stop them Some want to legalize the ones here and start over Reagan tried this and it proved to be a failure We need to look at why they are coming to our country We need to help their country to become economically sound We need to enrich our southern neighbor instead of China We need to embrace Mexico and choose to help our neighbor Nobody wants to leave their home, go to a foreign country To find a job, to be secure or to face the depravation of family We will never see an end to border crossings as long as the economy Of one nation exceeds the economy of the other. We can help them there within their border or we can help them here

Illegal? Immigration
Have you ever made a loaf of bread? It is a labor intensive, time consuming endeavor First you must mix the ingredients, You have to work the dough, You must let the bread rise, Then you must bake it until done Now this bread must be used within a day Because it does not preservatives Why do we toast bread for Breakfast? The bread made the night before was dry Mom spent time at home making bread While she was doing this she cleaned She collected the eggs for breakfast She milked the cow, goats She weeded the garden, selected supper She did the laundry by hand Hanging the clothes to dry in the sun Meanwhile she watched and taught the children Then it was time for supper She would collect the fall harvest Canning the harvest to last through the winter In the winter she would get up early to start the fire Making breakfast and lunch for the kids Sewing and mending clothes, blankets

Mom's Day
We were exposed to the fresh air, No air conditioning or filtered air, Fewer allergies, less asthma, better health We played outside, in the dirt and mud, No television, computers or video games, More resistance to common illness, We did not eat processed foods, No artificial chemicals, food additives Mom had to bake bread, cook from scratch Mom raised the children and was at home, Mom, swatted us when we needed discipline, Most of all Mom was there to Love us Life was slower then, more predictable We waited for Dad to get home, Then we sat at a table, to eat supper, as a family
