Many things one could say
Music from back in the day
Vintage showing the way
Soft and Mellow
Look at that Lady and Fella
Love songs putting romance in a hypnotizing trance
Dancing close
Setting the mood
The listen smooth
Music songs with everything to prove
Downtown to Uptown
Dance floors people were found
Soul feet
Soul Brother and Sister
Dancing through the rhythm making one’s date unique
Motown feeling
Totally genuine
Music appreciation and kind
The find
Putting time in one’s hands
Eyes on the female in the dancing crave
Hearts that couldn’t resist in behave
The Man wasn’t alone when Motown made the music full blown
Get down with a get up
No one did like Motown
The blend with no end
Motown wasn’t a pretend
The more the better
Motown with an enter
Motown dance
Every chance
Motown way
Rhythm on target in ok

Confusion
Untrue
Obvious
Unsure
Purpose
Combustion
Fact unseen
Reason unknown
Full blown
Chosen justified
Reaction
Moment
Suddenly
Unknown
Blocked
Continued falsehood
Back to before
Assumption

You spoke
But told a lie
You couldn’t keep your mouth shut
The words were always but
You couldn’t look into eye to eye
There was always a why
Your tongue gave you away
You do this everyday
You speak, but no truth
This is since your youth
What one does is
Your mouth is out of control
You need to know in how to take hold
Straight out twisted
Just like noodles
Many directions having no destinations of logic
No specific understanding
Where thought and gesture flow
That’s how people will know
It’s a proven show
Putting your mouth in the know.

Last time
Humble soul
Hourglass of time
Living genuine
Person to person
Heart to heart
From beginning to always remembrance
Soul soared beyond
The environment of tomorrow
Access granted
The moment
Expectation
Fortress of the soul
Before into ever after
Final check
Last response
Remember
Heaven’s enter

October 30 Midnight
One by one from all graves will rise
Spirits will roam the streets
Flesh will be their avenues
Stars will hide and not twinkle
Blood ******* craves
No time to act brave
Boneless detail
There will be knocks at all doors
Dare not open
You have been warned
Death will come to living life
Take heed to the advice
Screams will be censored
Time will accelerate even faster with no reverse
Souls will walk and stalk
The Moon will smarter and disappear
Thrills and chills
Your body will feel uneasy and eerie
Temperatures will rise
Fright through the night
If you survive
Moments upon moments
No pause
You try to run
You get nowhere
Time is not your side
Tormented
Souls get what they want
It’s the human flesh regret
Dare to cross
Entered everlasting
Last breath
No chance
No escape
Death be upon you
Your grave is ready
Buried until
No longer among

Legacy coming from the senior population
My Grandmother being the illustration
The encouragement I got
Sometimes discipline in like it or not
My Grandmother always had my back
I thank her for that
Spiritual moment of praying
Other times when I am going through a struggle
All the time loving hugs
My Grandmother was my inspiration
Directing me always where I need to be
Even though she is in Heaven, her spirit always come down
I still hear her words, “You are doing just fine
My words of wisdom guiding you each and every day
Follow my footsteps being the foundation I left
I feel her force with my every moment
Her wisdom is within me
Strong character with endurance
My Grandmother’s words with sound assurance
My influence
Her legacy is truly guiding me
Taught through experience
I represent a senior today being me
I lived a senior to be
Senior Adviser, thank you for your wisdom you always shared
It came with loving and care
Enriched Faith
Every length
Day and Night talks
Blessings
I am living among
Showing me my own possibilities
Senior thought
Wisdomized straight out
Best lesson ever

Dear Writer:

Feel alone?
Trapped in your own spider web
You would rather not get up, but stay in bed
Other things are on your mind instead
First thing you need to do is get up
Think on you
Let writing make you pursue
As a Writer to Writer
This is our wordy hood to encourage one another
Words will be your escort
Sentences the influence port
Let your heart and mind guide you to what to say, and how to say it
Your emotions are the background
From time to time, you will get writer’s block
Keep inspired and don’t stop
Stay on top
Focus and believe in yourself
No one is going to believe in you unless you do
Focus, Imagine and expect
You are the one that will be the effect
Contemporary is your out of the ordinary
What you think can be your very write
Fear doesn’t have to be a plight
It doesn’t matter, you can write day and night
You are a writer without being told
You step out with courage and being bold
You are your own voice of tell
Your mind is telling you shall
Now that the encouragement process has taken place
Start to write
Feel the words
Don’t stop until complete
Never give into defeat
What could sound so neat
Words and sentences have inspired
Now write and don’t tire.
