My Funeral is here and now
Your tears aren’t sincere
You are full of guilt
You really didn’t care when I was living
You are probably glad I departed
You are only at my Funeral just to see for yourself I am truly deceased
Friends and Family in pretend
My final chapter came to an end
Don’t look down at me in the coffin
There was no love for me on Earth when I was living
I am flyting in spirit like a Dove
Heaven is my new home
Peace and comfort to roam
Time moved on
I am where I belong
My days on Earth meant nothing
I gave my all on Earth
The world took my life for granted
It meant nothing
I am on Transcend mode
Forget me
You are not worthy
My enriched my beginning
My fulfillment complete
Tomorrow is my new day
I did my best
I am no longer among
My praise in God’s honor
Suffer for the living on Earth
You showed yourself and I proved myself
I am among the Believers
My baggage soul is packed and steady
I am on ready
My Heavenly room reserved
This is what I deserve
My moment came quick
I am at the highest
Gone Forever

Words don’t always come
Sometimes my mine is lonesome
At times Poets feel they aren’t Poets
Storms torment the spirit
It feels like a detour having a blockage
Emotions sealed like a hidden trap door
The battles between the words and sentences
No beginning. Nor ending
Sustain within
Loss for expression
One letter at a slow call
Unable to respond
Inspiration down
The Poet being nowhere to be found
Failure in own right
Poet relishing plight
The battle strong and intense
A Poet’s life could very well be past tense
Words missing the bull’s eye
All a Poet can do is cry
Letters from words
Mind and voice, we need to talk
Every pause is a Poet’s stalk
There must be a mindset
Writing is about creating the effect
Then something happens behind the Poet’s words
They construct
Suddenly encouragement comes from Poetry readers
Writing and sentences come back
The battle is no longer a struggle
Echoes comes to the Poet, “Come back to the writing saddle”
Be a Poet you are meant to be
Be committed and devoted for the world to continue to see
Poet in
Writing boldly out
Insight
Poet back

Mountains are not easy to climb, but one must be determined
Obstacles become circumstances
Challenging yourself through endurance
Staying positive working through negative influence
A mission one must pursue
Distance far and beyond
Standing on your own morals and disciplines
Dr. King’s voice said, “I am going to win”
Civil Rights Movement caught the attention of the world and Washington
Enough was Enough of being deprived
It was time to receive dignity like any other Ethnic group
We must continue the fight in Dr. King’s legacy as the work is not done
Dr. King made his commitment and fought a good fight
His devotion of Civil Rights must continue in all of our efforts
Dr. King is looking down on us from the Mountain Top
We must fulfill where Dr. King loss his life and strive in his honor
Hold steady
It’s not over
We must succeed going forward and not pause
Standards are what we can demand
Freedom is our right
Living shouldn’t be to have or not plight
Darkness is what holds us back
Light directs our inspired path
Truth is what needs to be recognized
Having an agenda that must be emphasized
Together strong
The Heaven’s wants us to get along
Gods create
Love embarked being appreciate
The world relishes on hate
That is something to anticipate
Tomorrow seeing a vision
A future bright with a fulfilling sunrise and sunset
All the goodness adding to the effect
Every challenge a break through
Every struggle guided through pray
Every blessing a lesson
Make one prove, and the mission is on the move
Dr. King was definitely a leader
Getting everyone to see his agenda
Showing be solid as a rock, “We shall not be moved”
Dr. King had everything to prove
No matter what storm came his way
He was going to finish his promise and not estray
Dr. King has gone on to his reward
Remembrance in Dr. Kings inflection
He started his commitment
Let’s continue on his dream

Achieving in honesty
Purpose destined
Mission to be involved
Stand and Praise who resolved
Ready and prepared
Let the heart praise out
Take the blessing in

Dream of buses
The mold of craftsmanship
Honor in the bus name
Destination striving from the heart
Tomorrow’s open road calling
The sun has risen in a new day
Suddenly a bus glistens for all too see
Vintage bus appears
A Bus Pioneer shares his bus storytelling soul
The day he drove and the experience he felt
The dream became a reality
Buses of the past were relived in the present
You never know what bus will pass by
You simply wave and embrace
You think to yourself, “Thank you for showing me the Bus way”
Bus recognition making its mark
Bus collectors are the start
Being the target with precision
Buses seem to know the bus collector’s heart
Remembrance, reflect, imagine and be amazed
Bus Collector’s understanding
Sustaining
A bus collector’s dream come true
You’re the bus truth
Buses are all around you and in you
Pursue with a mission
Stand strong in your commitment
Your involvement is proven
Echoes upon echoes chanting, “Don’t ever let go, Don’t ever let go, Don’t ever let go”
Step aboard the bus, and be inspired
Don’t tire nor expire
This is your moment in time
Buses dream perhaps
Endless road into the mainstream of buses

As the music raises in rehearsal
The Dancer alone in preparation
Represent will be a present
Talent in perfection
Moving the audience into performing arts appreciation

Contour stamina
Music being high and low
The dance sometimes being with the tempo slow
Immediately an upbeat tempo mighty and strong

Their minds are transcending like an avalanche
The spotlight adding to the effect
Echoing sounds of being a free spirit

Life’s promises
A sense of purpose
What has been achieved
Efforts that led being accomplished
Ups and Down’s
Committed to live
Desired to strive
Assurance of the heart
Birth of determination
Freedom within rejuvenation
Refreshing morning winter wind
Love nurturing like a warm sun
Welcomed in living
Possibilities within
One voice that knows and eyes that show
Seeing beyond the clouds and the shores
Imaging dreams as reality
Knowing what how one is supposed to live
Remembering all the advice that made encouragement possible
Stepping out on Faith in courage
Moment in time to think
A time to wonder
Looking yonder
Moment of thought
Prepared to live and excel
