God Made Me
God made me powerful and strong in my own right
God created me all along
God created me with such beauty and insight
He knows me well enough to know my strengths

God made me when he fills my heart with words of ingenuity
He lights a path for me to take when I first awake
God is a preacher and a teacher
He lets me know by using my body when I need a break

God made me to do good works
For his knowledge and words, I do thirst
God has made me to be able to use his book of instruction
He tells me to put him first

This is why I write this poem
I know God made me in a special way
May God bless the hearts of many
To remember the words I feel today
Being grateful for God's creation of me and humbling myself of what his path for me leads.

Emotions
All about  emotion
They flow just like the ocean
Before you get the notion
It is like a deep devotion

There are emotions of different kinds
Wrong types of emotion can ruin minds
With emotion you get all the finds
It is like the tie that binds.

Emotions are from deep within
Some emotions can cause a great sin
Emotions can make your head spin
Negative emotions can be like type of hard tin

Emotions can be seen all over town
Emotions can sometimes let you down
It can have a sad face or a frown
But eventually will let you drown.

Little Ayden Brown
A beautiful boy named Ayden Brown lit my screen.
He is happy and yet so serene.
His pictures that his mommy posted makes him the perfect angel that God has created.
He made his mommy and daddy so happy and filled their life with love and laughter.

Until one day he got sick and mommy was wondering why?
Mommy took him to every doctor's appointment possible and did constant research.
She was being strong for Ayden, but on the inside, she was saying, "God don't let my son die."
She fought tooth and nail to get the help Ayden needed
So she reached out for help, she even begged and pleaded

Ayden held on the best he can
As her eyes filled with tears
Mommy held on to her little man
She never gave up and never gave in

Ayden Brown fought til the very end
His story reached and empowered all who saw it
And now is the time to celebrate the bravery of my dear little friend
Mommy will cry for a lifetime but will always treasure the beauty that has left

Rest now Ayden Brown
Mommy loves you  now more than ever
Raise your head mommy the battle isn't over it has just begun
Now get up and fight once more for your beautiful son.


Smile like you never smiled before
Laugh like you never laughed before
Celebrate Ayden like you never celebrated before
Because this poem is and always will honor Ayden always and forever.

Rest in Heaven little Ayden Brown.
Mommy loves now forever and always
November 4, 2017 is the day I will always remember your story and celebrate with my son the life of Ayden Brown.
The beautiful boy the lit my screen and whole world

Thank you for your brave fight for life little Ayden brown
Your moms courage, strength, and bravery reached my heart
Mommy had your back from beginning to end.
Rest little Ayden Brown rest and watch over mommy forever.  

-Arnesha Lanette Adams
A poem about Ayden Brown a little boy who touched many lives and story about his cancer that later claimed his life. This poem dedicated to him and Lindsey Licari and the family my heart is with you and that beautiful baby boy.

Ride or Die for God
I have a ride or die, God

No matter the shape, or size of your ***

My God made you work of art

He even knows your heart


God is so cool and amazing

That negativity is phasing

So don't get mad or fuss

Cause God loves each and every one of us


God heals us when we are sick

When Gods words are written they stick

Don't you love God can do wonders

He knows when we make blunders


I am blessed to be made by him

It not matters if it's us, he, she, or them

With my God I don't have to ask why

For my God, I will ride or die.

God's Essentials
To love God is loving yourself and all that's created.
To understand God is to know what's fated.
God's creation is a mark of beauty
We are Gods creation who are called to duty

We are bound by God to serve
Some of us slide and sometimes swerve
God is loving and Kind
He even gave us a day to unwind

God gives us what we can handle
But we turn it into a scandal
God gives us the tools to learn
It is something that we can earn

Happy Weather
Emotions are like a storm rolling in, I prefer my mood to be like happy weather
When I say happy weather I mean a beautiful  sunny day
I look outside the glass window paneling and I see the birds chirping
And the trees lively and green

Not a cloud in sight but a lovely beam of sunlight piercing through the living room  of this glorious light
I noticed one of my dogs  as he lay, while the others frolic and play
And I enjoy the peace and quiet alone

I might want to enjoy this happy weather without a care
My heart is filled with this happy weather  mood

Fundamentals of Life
Life filled with complications
And happy celebrations
Life is fundamental for survival and peace
Fundamentals of life is loss, and gains

Life can be entertaining
Yourself and others around you
Life is a fundamental challenge of simplicity
Life can be easy and sometimes hard

A good life takes a good fight
A bad life makes a bad life
Fundamentals of life is living it well
Life can be a battlefield type hell

We as a people need to learn to live life to the fullest
If life was always fun wouldn't it be the coolest
Some of us don't know how to get a life
And some us takes life for granted

So the fundamentals of life is to appreciate it while you live
Live it up, live it strong, live it how you want to live it
Be careful in the life choices you make
Because it may be the last breath you take.


                           RIP Prince you will be missed.
I wrote this because even though life has so many fundamentals that we take for granted what we have, but never fully understand it till its to late. I also wrote this because I dedicate this poem to the legendary icon Prince. Your music touched us all and I am deeply saddened by the loss of this artist.

Mind in Disarray
My mind is at a disarray
Why is it a gloomy day
I need  to ask you a question is I may
What part in this life do I play

My heart is crushed
My time feels rushed
My hair has not been brushed
And my hat made my hair smushed

My eyes are getting blurry
My emotion is that of fury
And I am in no hurry
I am craving a McFlurry

Riddle me this riddle me that
What's going on with my body fat
It annoys me like swatting a gnat
That eventually went splat

My mind is in a disarray
And this is all I got to say
I don't want anything getting in the way
I guess this is how I will end the day
A person that has an amount of problems with no solution.

PC Tech Blues
For anyone owning a pc
Does not have it worse than me
I have a degree in technology
Oh computer gods hear my plea

I went from windows 7 to ten and back again
I encounter viruses from now until then
I work crazy hours to fix pc issues
Could someone please hand me some tissues

I am going through the pc tech blues
This is a living to help pay my dues
The customers' pc is putting up a fight
But we will go at it all night until i get it right

I will not let one problem be missed
My dear pc your booboos will be kissed
I work hard to provide excellent service
Now some pc's make me nervous

Pc tech blues cannot fix it i will repair your parts
Even if the cost breaks a few hearts
That's what I will have to do
To make you pc good as new

The pc tech blues I struggle
for you pc i will manage and juggle
I will fix your troubles fast and swift
For my customer fixing you is my gift
This about a pc tech who has daily struggles with fixing pcs and this shows us a glimpse of what computer technicians deal with on the daily and what goes through their head.

A Peaceful Heart
In the mist of chaos lies a peaceful heart.
One of cunning, kind and lover of art.
A mere woman who loves all
But will too much kindness be her downfall

She seeks solitude and grace
But ends up with a sad look on her face
She cannot hide her fears and anxiety that has imprisoned her
Nor can this woman fathom or deter the negative thoughts that occur

She still finds a way to keep a peaceful heart
Not an easy thing to do when emotions can rip her apart
If it is positive for her she will do it if  you please
Her way of a peaceful heart is writing to help her mind at ease

To her a peaceful heart comes in a beautiful sunny day
Nature is her favorite getaway
She knows in reality that life is not always sunny
Reality does not care if you are broke or have money

The woman will fight for  a peaceful heart my friend
She will fight till the bitter end
To leave this world with a smile peace in her heart and a smile on her face
As she finally goes to her final resting place.
A woman who fights to keep a peaceful heart even at the best and worst of times. She enjoys life and lives life with a peaceful heart until the final end.

Choices and Mistakes
Oh my fair mistakes
of the choices that we take
How can I live with the thought of knowing
Where it is we are going

Time be ever so sweet
While I feel the earth benath my feet
I lie in wait for this day to come
My mouth used to drown my burdens with ***

My choice, my mistake
With every breath I take
Who am i to judge
While I feed my face with fudge

I look at myself in the mirror
Hoping to see things clearer
But will I get that answer at last
My choices and mistakes will go by fast

Hurry now or you will be too late
To change this dreaded but unending fate
There will be no secrets to keep
For there you ended up six feet deep.
A dark dreary poem of a person who dealt with depression, alchoholism, and gluttony that drove the person to madness then death.

Dear Anger
Dear anger I do not want you to come out and play
You coming here scares the people away
I am not in the mood for you to stay
Dear anger why don't you ******* and go away


Dear anger please leave  me alone
You have turned my heart to stone
And got me in a unhappy zone
I can do bad on my own

Dear anger why do you keep coming back
Dear anger you are not going to do jack
but cause me a heart attack
You about to make me blow a stack

Dear anger you need to get a grip
How about I take a trip
I did not snap I just flip
Dear anger you caused me to get a busted lip

Dear anger why are you bothering me
I do not want you around can't you see
Go away and let me be
Dear anger stop holding on and set me free

Dear anger you are not Hermoine Granger
Nor or you "Walker Texas Ranger"
You put me in so much danger
Dear anger you make me become a stranger

Dear anger thanks for your concern
I feel you would never learn
You leave pain and a very bad burn
Dear anger please, please do not return
A person dealing with a negative emotion called anger and fights and blames anger for  what the person endures while dealing with the emotion and finds a way to confront anger in its tracks.

As Time Flies
As time flies
We look to the skies
Life makes us realize

Lie a job done well, we get promoted
Only those who work hard and stays devoted
This information is duel noted

As time flies
We wipe the tears from our eyes
As if getting a glorious surprise

Life can be a beautiful quote
Or it can be a drastic bad teachers note
Or end in a tie like a vote

As time flies
You learn to compromise
Until the day of your demise
Time passes by and look back on the good and bad things in life until death comes

A.R.N.E.S.H.A
Always working for more
Really earnest, but know what life has in store
Never giving up no matter the cost
Ever so patient while lost
Sincerely cool and care free
Happiness means everything to me
Audaciously blessed to know what life is meant to be
This describes part of my personality as a human being

MY DARK BROWN PEOPLE
I AM A WOMAN PROUD AND STRONG
MY HAIR IS BLACK AND LONG
WHY DO SOME PEOPLE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY SKIN
LIKE IT IS A BAD CURSE OR A HORRENDOUS SIN

IT IS AN INSULT TO ME
WHILE I AM LABELED TO BE
THE ONLY THING BLACK IS MY HAIR AMONG OTHERS
SO WHAT IS THE DEAL MY DARK BROWN SKINNED BROTHERS

WHY DO YOU YELL PROUDLY
GET CRUNK AND SCREAM LOUDLY
STOP RISING IN ANGER, BUT END UP PUTTING YOURSELF IN DANGER
WHILE OTHER ETHNICITIES SOMETIMES TREAT US LIKE STRANGERS

SOME RACES DO NOT WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE
SOME DARK BROWN PEOPLE WORK HARD AND GO TO COLLEGE
I DO NOT CONSIDER MYSELF BLACK AND THAT IS MY FACT
BUT WE ARE CALLED THAT BECAUSE OF HOW WE ACT
A POEM ABOUT VIEWS ON MY CULTURE OF HOW DARK BROWN PEOPLE AKA BLACK PEOPLE VIEW THEMSELVES AND OTHER ETHNIC GROUPS VIEW THEM.

Dear Father
Dear Father you are the reason why my mom is in shambles
You are the reason for my constant rambles
Father your words were harsh to mom when spoken
Father you made my mother completely broken

Dear Father you said you loved me but you hurt me
But instead you did nothing but desert me
You tried to put up a good fight
And thought you mended the pieces of wrong and right

When we spoke when you was in the hospital the other day
I realized what you told the love slowly died away
I felt in that you did not care about from the start
That is when it all came back me really just broke my heart

My hatred for you has ran wild
When you mentioned you have another child
How dare you rub it in my face
You never loved me in the first place

You selfish and cold hearted man
You did not stand your ground, but instead you ran
Dear Father how can you do this to me and feel care free
You asked only about my mother instead of me

Dear Father as bad as I hurt I still love you
But as far as i can see is expressing my point of view
I had to deal with my mother's  emotional pain
Her was flowing like the falling rain

Her sadness had drove me insane
I felt I was more at a loss than a gain
That she was afraid of a gentle touch
You ****** the life out of her so much

My mother is happy like the rising sun
I barely forgive you for what you done
Now my mother is longer alone
I hope you can apologize and attone

Even though I sometimes stress
I do not love you any less
I can settle for you taking care of my sister and give this a rest
I love you father and wish you all the best
A daughter expressing how she feels about her father's actions in the past

This time I Fight
This time I fight
It is not a game nor plight
I do what is necessary and what is right
So boys and girls hold on tight

I am no longer going to take any crap
I tell the bully no more it is a wrap
You will get a count out or a I will make you tap
You lie to me and while I am caught in your trap

You make me feel like a fool
You laugh with your homies and they think you are cool
I will out best you with my intelligence because that is my tool
In the end I will make you disappear like a wonder less ghoul

This time I fight not with fists but with words
It will be as potent to the point you absurd
You can call me a dork or a nerd
This time I will fight, and mark my words it will be the best you ever heard

So go on with your name calling
I won't go down falling
My strategy is to keep stalling
In the end I will not be the one who sounds appalling

You have a chance to choose
I hate to be the one to tell you the bad news
Bad things don't come in ones, but twos
The cops arrested him and the bully finally paid his dues
A person being bullied and using words as a way to stop the bully and  in the end the bully was arrested

Love of an Uncertain Future
Love can be simple if you know what you want
Finding that someone can be tortuous and leads to scary haunt
You hope to find that one you seek
Only to find him can also make you breathless as your body feels weak

Just when everything is right
You notice something else has come to light
Your new man you come to know
Fills your heart with a happy and yet you glow

Feeling his touch will make you melt
His warm body and voice has been felt
The attraction grows stronger and stronger
In your mind you cannot wait any longer

You want him by your side
As this long awaited ride
You look deep into his eyes
Seeing beauty like the sunrise

Bursting with joy to hear him
The day begins to dim
Thinking of him non stop
And fantasies of your ******* drop

You feel that you have to know
For if not you will feel low
Fighting to get the words out
While he is trying to understand what you are talking about

Struggling to say what is on your mind
Through your voice feeling muffled and hard to find
Sweating bullets to break it down
Ending up passing out on the ground
A girl who wants her the man of her dreams that she loves him, but is too shy to tell him how she feels and ends up being a nervous wreck.

Far Too Gone
Man I am far too gone
To last this long
Nonstop talking til dawn
To write this wrong
Not becoming a pawn
I will carry on

Far too gone to sit and cry
Non stop loving that cannot be strawn
While I give up hope or try
Man I am far too gone
To live my life
And to think and mow  the lawn
Dealing with pain and strife

Man far to gone
To be locked in a cage
To mimic what conclusion is drawn
Put into a ravenous rage
Far too Gone
To feel this way
Becoming a motherless fawn, and not fight to see another day.

Far far too gone
And lose all insanity
Too far gone to make a stand
And wanting to hold your hand
Falling down with such vanity

Far too gone to run this time
To bare the embarrassment of a crime
Holding back hurtful tears
Only to combat my fears throughout the years

I am too far gone
No way of turning back now
If by will I will learn how
Because I am too far gone
Woman being fed up with keeping a relationship alive. She is on the verge of a meltdown.

Life In General
Life in general comes every season
Sometimes life in general happens for a reason
To those who feel life is meaningless and unkind
Take a second to sit back, chill and unwind
Life in general can be pleasant
To some people life in general is living life of a peasant
Life in general can be great
Or an on going political debate
Life in general can be hard
Life in general can make you play a card
It gives a lot of choices
You think about the two words two voices
Life in general can be fun
Life in general can have you on the run
Life in general make you think
Life in general will have you on the brink
Life in general can be good or bad
Life in general can be the best you ever had
Life in general can cut you like a knife
But life in general to many it is just life
The life in general talks about up and downs and the mental and emotional stability of life through a person's eyes.

Ode to My Mom
An Ode to my Mommy
I have my mommy on my Mind,
The words I cannot find
My mommy is strong and fierce
And even her words could pierce
She can change my soul
And make me whole
My mommy tells it like it is
Her advice is not a story or a pop quiz
She picks me up before I fall
When I need advice I give her a call
When I am sad her words are a gift
Her smile always gives me a lift
Mommy I don't mean to make you sad
I just want you to be happy and glad because you are the best mommy I ever had.
A daughter describing the love of her mother through good and bad times. Her heart never changes.

Cry Baby, Cry
Cry Baby, Cry
Cry baby cry your pain, and misery out
Punch scream and shout
Even when you are hurting the most
Look back at the good life and have a toast

Cry baby, cry for love and love alone
Forget the bad feelings that turned you to stone
No dwelling on the things that cuts like a blade
Smile and be grateful of the good times you made

Cry baby, cry for a better life and pleasure
You are a woman that is always a treasure
No more sadness and wasted tears
Be happy and live gracefully beyond your years

Cry baby, Cry to be strong
Rejoice as the days are long
Breathe in and breathe out to cleanse your heart
Be merciful for a brand new start
This poem is talking about a woman who is moving on with her life, but is still hurting over an ended relationship.

— The End —
