Watch over my family Jesus And watch over the good people of this earth Who try to do what is right I was at the gym this morning about 2:20 am Then I came home for a bit of breakfast Toast and cereal An avocado too Who doesn't love an avocado? I listened and recorded A Buddhist talk on tranquility Then it was off to the golf course 35, 50, and 80 yard pitch shots This afternoon In the local park Meditating While I listened to the Shurangama mantra Lying in the grass I watched bees pollinating small flowers A mother played with her daughter As I left I saw a beautiful asian woman in her backyard I came home and cleaned a few golf clubs And recorded a lecture given by a speaker Who spoke at the National WWII musem About important military decisions FDR made during the war I also began a recording of a lecture About how the Red Army defeated Germany Then it was off the golf course I chipped ***** There was a mother and her daughters chipping And another lady too I accidentally picked up her yellow ball Thinking it was mine She said it was hers I apologized and told her I have a yellow ball just like that She didn't say anything in response I wish she would have chatted with me a bit And said not to worry But that's okay Peace be with her Then I went to the range Where I hit 7 irons and gap wedges 3/4 swing Good extension on the back swing Follow through to the target Good crisp shots Hit off of sandy turf I came home to my family I love them very much Jesus please forgive me For the hate I have had in my heart Please forgive me for the evil thoughts that I had Sometimes it has just been so hard for me To continue to live here I love my family so much I really do But it's not fair I've tried so hard to do what I would like to do Well, I'll just keep trying And in whatever I do, I should remember to try to show the love That Jesus showed to us Freely given love It is in giving that we receive Well, I'm alone again I wish I had a girlfriend to hold Maybe one day Until then I will have to hold my pillow
