UNCLE DIXIE JOE
preservationman Jul 2016
A drunken old man
Music from his past being the caravan
Down by the bayou
You would have to be Southern in order to pursue
Uncle Joe performed when Race was an issue
When he tells his tail, he often needs a tissue
Yet my Uncle was meant to be on stage
His sheer talent the world often was amazed
But he made a vow that no one is going to make him stop
He worked too hard and was determined to make it to the top
Uncle Joe would tap and move to the beat of rhythm
His hands and dance reminiscing a spiritual hymn
Even other past celebrities would always reframe
But Uncle Joe was total entertainment being the aim
However, his was an entertainer that welcomed change
But you had to prove in what needed to be rearranged
Uncle Joe had his own virtues
He stood out because his civil rights made him strong
No struggle was going to stop him in getting along
Draw your own conclusion if you will
Uncle Joe achieved and the fact that he is old, he wants to perform still
He was his own masterpiece in craft in having a marquee fitting the bill
From time to time he must take a medicated pill
Anybody wanting to step into his shoes, you must have talent in order to fill.

THE STRENGTH TO CLIMB
preservationman Nov 2014
Oh mountain high
There are mountains for me to climb and I ask why?
The Lord responded, “You have been in the valley long enough”
I am going to prepare you to be rugged and tough
However, I don’t you to take this as a *****
The mountains looked like they had steps
The length was steep
As I climbed my legs began to feel weak
I am the Lord with encouragement and this is no time to retreat
The Devil wants you to be succumbed in defeat
I am the Lord who is almighty and the Devil’s beat
Climb that mountain and continue to climb
Reaching the peak will be your reward
I will honor you with a golden sword
All you have to do is, “Oh Thank You Lord”
The reason I wanted you out of the valley because there is a more definite tomorrow that you haven’t seen
As you continue to live, you will see what I mean
Notice the horizon in the distance
Look how quick it transformed in an instance
Possibilities illustrated into a swift assurance
I gave you the strength and endurance
I wanted you to see just how you will influence
Now go tell others
Let your experience be told to one another
Tears don’t last forever
Cries are only in the conquest
Mountains are as solid as you want them to be
This is what I wanted you to see
Prosper beyond the enemies expectations
Give them no answer to numerous questions
Give them no accusations
You have fulfilled my sustaining test
You will become one of the best
The mountains were only an example
Now go my servant
Spread your good news
You have nothing to lose
Amen and I must conclude.

Words that came with being inspired from the sky
It was those thoughts being notions with learning in how to be wise
The Poet’s voice being the connection of my true self
As a Poet, we have our own secret like nobody else
The clouds being the platform in setting the stage
The Poet’s true heart in what would amaze
The freedom of expression
A Poet’s lesson being the indication
The Poet’s mystique setting the romantic vibe
The sentences combined describes the Poet’s written scribe
A Poet’s thoughts comes from making many strides
A true poet who only knows
What became suppose is what the dialog that showed
Eye on inspiration
Eye on condition
The words in what you see
Your thinking in what they could be
The Poet’s mind wanders
The ideas that are complex and how they ponder
A Poet takes you on a trip
Yet upon reading you discover a tip
A Poet can always transcend because it’s the reader’s mind that lets the Poet in. It’s a new beginning with a different approach. While its one that writes, and it is the other one that thinks.

A matter of life and Death
Dr. Blake’s patient having not much time left
Heart problems with Cancer that has spread
Discussions with the patient’s family beyond compare
The hour having not much time to spare
Dr. Blake’s patient is suffering with pain
The Angering hours will continue to remain
Timely is everything
Medical Technology can’t help the patient to survive
I have done all the research and spoken to other specialist doctor’s with all having the same results
We can do more for the patient
The family is suggesting if there were any more tests that could be done
But over and over, there is none
All we can do is just wait
Destiny has the date
Dr. Blake sits in his office feeling more like a tiny room
The moment of announcement that could be soon
The patient is sleeping as comfortably as possible
Possibilities having no options
Suddenly Dr. Blake was summoned to the patient’s room
Announcement made throughout the hospital
When Dr. Blake entered the patient’s room, the patient was dead
Even though the hospital staff was trying to revive the patient, senseless tries failed
Death was the patient’s call
Establishment having no stall
A patient called up to Heaven having a rising spirit.

A bus design in delight
It was sit back and observe the sight
A young boy traveling South
Downtown to Downtown being Greyhound’s day
Oh that Scenicruiser Dual Level ride
The craftsmanship of one level with steps leading to another
The GM-PD-4501 being like no other
Seeing the highway from above
There was plenty of joy with everything to think of
Fellow passengers welcome aboard
This is the world famous Greyhound Scenicruiser
A name that goes a long way
But has become a vintage bus to stay
As a youngster, that Scenicruiser brings back many memories
A comfortable ride with suspension
That hound into the night
The only light was the Scenicruisers headlight
The vintage famous bus having its place leading the highway
Yet, GM-PD-4501 in remembrance that will stay every step of the way.

TOMORROW REVERSED
preservationman Jul 2016
Yesterday I thought I conquered in order to move on
Somehow my tomorrow never came
But did I see the vision of my aim
Perhaps I am being just lame
In my head the bitterness of my shame
Tomorrow comes for only who try
My forgotten heart in its own cry
A tomorrow with a held back Hour Glass
My tomorrow will not be coming fast
But how long will all this last?
A decree is no degree
A bird soars in knowing how to be free
What does yesterday want of me?
A true heart with a destiny
One soul showing no one pity
A shadow not recognized
But being intrigued in fully energized
Tomorrow being my reminder to excel
But be confident in ability that will sell and tell
My tomorrow will be
Just wait and see.

CALL TO SALVATION
preservationman Nov 2015
Yes this is my story
Exact words being God’s glory
Faith that came in
I became a new creation on that day from when
God’s promise being fulfilled
Seeking salvation being my determined will
A testimony from where I stand
I am God’s servant and witness for him in demand
Seek Christ as he will bring you joy
Don’t let the Devil be a decoy and pounce on you in ploy
Also remember God is no toy
A merciful Father who gives us a chance
Through his blessings it is advance after advance
However, believe and you shall receive
God may sit high
Yet he has his eyes on you and I
Question not, but do receive
Look up, but do take heave
Changes come each day from the skies
But tomorrow we will have wisdom and understanding how to be wise
No need to wonder
Think on the Heavens yonder
Walk with thee
You too will see
Storms only last for the moment
Everlasting being forever
I once encountered near “Death”
The Lord added on many years to come left
I just told you my testimony
A God who delivered me
I am sharing for all to see
Thanks for walking with me
Salvation is what life should be
Open up your heart
Let the door to spiritually enter
“Salvation is a way of life, and the Heavenly voice who will always give you advice”.

TRUMP HITS A BUMP
preservationman Oct 2016
He has loss his way through the darkness.
His thoughts have been misdirected with a detour.
Trump must always think twice.
He loses motivation by not taking advice.
Politics flow has a message of No.
Words have no connection with the necessary flow.
Conditions in the world need no more negativity.
From America’s separation in bring all people together being activity.
Trump has a name.
But it relates to a dump truck taking aim.
Trump’s platform is nothing more than a mock.
Yet he doesn’t even have a resolutions stock.
The Commander-In-Chief is for more than a Corporate CEO.
It’s a person being the U.S. Ambassador in being in the know.
Apprentice is a learning tool while being educated in a trade by the best.
It’s not a conquest nor is it a request.
Now listen carefully and follow the flow.
Policies must be just right in getting overseas waters to agree.
Certainly shouldn’t be for Foreigners needing to flee.
It should be decisions in wait and see.
It’s living in true purpose in where it should be.
Racism should not be illustrating from past to present.
All have rights that represent.
It can’t be black shootings being constant incidents.
Afro Americans have done nobody wrong.
It’s the fact we all need to get along.
Dr. Martin Luther King had the right idea.
We shouldn’t have to live in fear.
Embrace one another is how we shall preserver.
Stand up for what should be right.
Avoid in an unnecessary fight.
Wars should serve purpose, but not against one another.
Because one doesn’t look like the other, it shouldn’t be hatred on any other.
Building walls is a form of separation.
America was built on decrees, desires, Determinations and sound judgments.
It’s the right to speak, live and fellowship.
Yet Trump should let that be lesson as a tip.
Trump feels because he is a Billionaire, he owns the USA.
But his lack of understanding makes his character astray.
Money can only go so far.
After that, money has no voice.
Trump is not a good choice.
There are followers on his side.
But there is an expected expiration, and I see a raging coming tide.
My own personal advice, “MOVE FORWARD, BUT DON’T TIRE AS TIME MARCHES ON, AND TOMORROW IS A WAKE UP FROM THE YOND. IT’S INSPIRATION IN BEING EMBRACED STRONG AND STAY IN THOSE VERY WORDS IN KNOWING YOU ARE A PERSON THAT IS FAVORED IN BELONG”.

DREAM SET
preservationman Feb 2016
My dreams come, but my mind doesn’t give in
A crystal ball being my already mind set
Inside being hollow
It’s only a straight line to follow
A short walk into the subconscious
Questions having no answers
A song I remember being the impossible dream
A past dream I recall being me and a stream
Never knew what that dream mean
No fish were in
I am right back to thinking from when
Expectations were actually hesitations
Perhaps imaginations gone wild
Happenings of the mind during while
Yet the mind takes me on a journey
The destination is always unknown
Maybe a theory of overbearing in being fullblown
My dreams are starting where my life all began
There is no dream conclusion, as we haven’t reached the end
A dream on my mind, but the outcome could very well be sublime.

The spirits from another world
A transformation in making the mind swirl
Another life being more than transcend
A moment in accelerate in begin
A battle among evil
The Officer being the Devil
The clouds that darken the moon
A hidden light with the harken gloom
Spirits will reign supreme
An eerie voice in the world only knows what that means
Blood with decaying flesh
An eye on the right and nothing on the left
The spirits being unrest
It is the humans being put to the test
Evil from down below
A moment in thinking although
The moon in the distance disappeared
The night has become full of fear
Many questions of who to trust being near
The spirits stork the night as to who will preserver, and at what price, in shearing a tear?

SHOWBIZ IN MY BLOOD

Mama, I always wanted to perform
But you kept telling me Church is the norm
Mama you said, “Sing for the glory of the Lord”
It’s the Heavens being the accord
Before you know it, my Daughter will be on Drugs, Alcohol and partying all hours of the night
I pray because that alone scares me with fright
Girl, God is the guiding light
Why are you so uptight and that you must sing?
Mama, my singing was meant for the world
My tone and pitch will make audiences swirl
I could have the audience on their feet
Mama’s response, but God can’t be beat
Your father and I have always given you inspiration through the church
It’s enrichment of Faith, and remember, God’s word is everlasting
However Mama, despite what you say, I am going on the road to sing
New York is my base, but there’s a world I want to explore
For now Mama, it’s the church I must ignore
Entertainment I must explore
First stop Japan then Europe
My bags are packed
My flight leaves at 6:00 pm
So Long Mama, this is something I must do.

THE STORY OF SHARE AND BARE
preservationman Oct 2015
What can you say about two couples opposite from each other
Share and Bare were raised by two different mothers
Share being the male and Bare being the female
As for Bare, a female who would have show and tell in a heart beat
Before you could say well, you already would be given a showcase treat
Now as to how Share and Bare met was somewhat a questionable event
It was a fantastic party in which they went
It was a party when Share and Bare glazed into each others eyes it was like Heaven sent
Now imagine looking into each other’s eyes
It was that very moment Share received an unopened surprise
It was very revealing
But perhaps that might not have been too wise
All this happened in front of everyone at the party
It might have been embarrassing to most, and Share didn’t even boost
Share just took it in his stride, and was confidence and didn’t hide
Nonetheless they became a loving couple together
They are definitely like no other
Share and Bare were like two birds that were linked together like the wind
They went from then into a loving blend
They are still in everlasting love and will be until the end.

A POET’S RESPONSE
preservationman Jan 2015
It was words from creativity of then
All this thinking had the Poet pondering on when
It was the moment sitting high above on a bridge
It was life being a privilege
The seven seas as they revolve
The feeling of the flowing breeze to think of
Suddenly the sun’s spotlight giving warmth all around
The movement of cars all making a sound
Yet the moment of life can be a sudden tap of death
A moment can be a second with fast acceleration
It doesn’t matter of age within the generation
But the source of a Poet’s quick write
Bringing from the heart and knowing how to excite
It’s the pen and paper on a specific quest
A computer and display screen as a back up in confirming the request
We all take one day at a time
Yet as a Poet we take thoughts with ideas in what’s combined
Understanding and wisdom in what experience has given
Education can only take you just so far
In order to achieve you must the experience scar
The inspiration coming from within and establishing a dialog at the end
The Poet is one that knows, and also wants to encourage all and yet instill in let your feelings show. Your ideas no one can take away. Your mind being its own human microchip and your creativity hidden just waiting to come out.
Words upon words, and this is what makes a Poet in what I am talking about.

RAILING PIZZA
preservationman May 2017
An Amtrak train travelling to Washington, DC
It was Union Station bound
The Amtrak train was maneuvering in acceleration in sound
Everything was moving in a timely fashion
At least that is what the passengers thought
Then suddenly the Amtrak came to an immediate stop
Mechanical problems came up
Meanwhile the Amtrak train being stuck on the rails
Apparently something on the train had failed
One of the passengers felt the train would be stuck for a while
The passenger took action in style
So the passenger called from his cell a nearby Pizza Restaurant, and had the Pizza delivered directly to the Amtrak train
The passenger thought, “If I am going to be stuck on the rails, it’s going to be feed my hunger being the trail”
But the question does come up
There’s a snack car aboard, and why wasn’t it utilized?
I guess with mechanical problems with no power, all the Amtrak Personnel aboard could do was apologize
The Amtrak train finally arrived in Washington, DC three hours late
I would have taken the bus and avoided the fuss.

THE NEW HORIZON

It was 1902 on the New Horizon 101 train schedule
There was a fancy party aboard
The schedule was from New York City to Kansas City, Kansas being explored
But as the party went on, the engineer completely ignored
A terrible storm blew
It was wind, rain and lightening being the slew
As the passenger train was trotting on its route
Suddenly the train derailed and turned over and over into a final pause about
It was determined there were no survivors
As years went on there was no longer interest being shown
Everyone felt this story was nothing more than a myth
But today is the anniversary of the final crash and perished lives
One night a ghost locomotive engine could be heard in the distance
Citizens were awakened in a sleep as a quick instance
Spirits unrest in moans being the deceased passengers
Human life cannot contest
The passenger train spirits were roaming the rails
A night of remembrance of the encore of prevail
A spiritual train with only souls that remain
Yet the moon being hidden
The souls in stalking in an unbelieving forsaken
An arrival of the Spirit of New Horizon with no schedule nor destination to arrive
The theory of the aftermath being taken in living one’s strive
Rails with no train and the eerie feeling of lives that remain
Yet moans continue to be heard as souls being the herd
The engine with no aspect
The microscope being investigative in what one would expect
The spirits will continue to roam
They hold the key in what should be known
Yet the Spirit New Horizon looking for new souls
A world unknown
The human population that will be blown
It’s quiet for now, but what is the reason being how?
We will never know
It’s the railing place and the soul’s having the face.

I was the experiment in technique of preserver
My mind was put to the test
Then it was think back then move forward
My memory being what stayed in and what information moved on
The analysis captured that not all past remembered, and some things
I wanted to truly forget

The power of the eyes and the thinking mind reduced many brain disorders at least according to the lecture
Professor Washington continued on
He gave an outline that was long
Professor Washington stated what the class would cover
But I was thinking, I want this day to be over

The Professor also emphasized that exams were a must
Then later, a commotion being a fuss
Finally the class ended for the day
What words could I possibly say?
Well that was my course of the day.

WRITING FLAME
preservationman Oct 2015
I feel I can no longer write anymore
It seems readers would rather ignore than explore
Writing is a commitment I chose to do
But as of now I am simply through
I write so others can enjoy
It’s not a game and a ploy
It’s my writing in having others enjoy
Writing is a gift from my heart
I remember when I write it was something I enjoyed
Writing was my devotion to share with the world
It actually made my heart swirl
My work seems to be passed on by
Yet every determination in effort with a continuous try
My writing seems to come as a storm
It’s my variety being different from the norm
Assertion using understandable words
Readership in wanting to be heard
So what have you felt in my writing all along?
Should I continue to write and is this where I truly belong?

Please help me take the reader on a journey

The journey is hidden in our minds along with the deleted waste
A Poet only knows
Yet inner thoughts perhaps dreams with wording spotlighting that shows
Well there is a plateau we must get through
A pause being although
It’s that's uphill climb that we must slew
Our words that must stand out
Yet be calm and not shout
As a destined Poet, we have an obligation too our selves and the World
Write, Believe, Achieve, Confident and Excel
We are individual’s having no name to state of who we are as the world will tell
It looks like we have convinced
Oh my, look at the time
Look at what we discovered as a Poet
We have a reason to write and that is come out thinking on a maybe plight

But to the reader, we must say “Good Night”
Continue to write well and sleep tight

However, I am deep in my self-conscious being a whim

Back in my school days, I ran track, swam and lifted weights
Those were my dates as I relate
Young and full of energy
I would have many women to date
But time as expired, and age says I am too late
I am an old man walking with a cane
I have aches and pains that shall remain
But I won’t concentrate and complain
I lived my life in how it was meant to be
My wife passed on after 45 years of marriage
We met in college and became lovebirds
Tomorrow became today being remembrance in heard
My heart wants to shout, but my mind has no uttering words
Old age in how I gained wisdom
It won’t be long before I will be entering the Heavenly kingdom
My wife and I will be reunited once again
It’s in God’s hands of when
Old man with a thinking mind and sincere heart
Hope in Heaven, and target everlasting.

I need God’s holy spirit to help me look up and see behold
A son loss in a struggle of despair
Yet you are the Savior that no one can compare
I pray deep
I need your mercy in keep
Your spirit tells me through darkness there is a light
This light is in remembrance in helping you overcome your plight
Trust in the above
Jesus the almighty to think of
A scar being a cut
I know it doesn’t sound like much
But God delivers and he does comfort

A sunrise with a darkened heart
A triggered shot with a hushed voice
Acceleration of life with tomorrow having no meaning
Another soul to sleep
The Devil’s demise in attempt to keep
God’s eye in wonder
Heavenly soul gone yonder
A young life cut short from the score
A question of justice in needing to explore
A time to pray
A nation in turmoil not feeling ok
The question being is when will the violence end?
My Tears on what will tomorrow be?
An uncertain pause of wait and see

Life we question in what it seems
However, it is the praying hands given to above
Once again it is Heaven that we think of
Endure in the goodness
I am the witness
To sleep is only a victory on a new tomorrow
A sunrise will return
Everyday living being an urn
God can and will
But continue to think on God still
God will comfort in your distress
But believing in faith your own personal test
Everlasting, fulfillment and joy as the final word
An ending sermon in have you heard
Peace unto you
The praises that is due
Walk in stride as you take God’s word to abide
My lips in one last kiss

Stages of life in parents teaching their babe

Years will roll on and on

A time to explore and learn how too preserver

I am a black man who stands with pride and responsibility
I am the person who strides on family providing
My responsibility is to lead
Having understanding to proceed
Yet society has labeled me
It’s a message of don’t trust what you see
Society’s purpose that I have no right to speak
I dare not even tweet
However I have reason to live
I am more of a verb than an adjective
Society would rather delete me in subtract than be wise in multiply
But here’s why, it all started from history back
Slavery being part of the track
But Freedom to excel was the civil rights movement being a combat
Yet history seems to be revolving itself
A shade of another color doesn’t fit in the Crayola
The mission seems to state, “**** until Dead”
Some Police present lack of trust
Just shoot being a must
But justification has taken a negative turn
The focus of a minority feeling like a sandy Urn
Emotions being aggression
Respect a question not needing permission
Being a Black Man
I Stand Alone
But the multitudes of Life Matters in efforts in letting it be known
We need life that will be soothe into smooth
There is everything to prove
Change that must come
We must move forward from
Life is worth living until Heaven says it is up.

As for that refund is not ok
Passengers are entitled to quality service
It’s satisfaction that must surface
If you can’t deliver your promise

No, passengers must not take in as their stride

Prepare yourself and thinking you are the best
Let your skills speak for you in being your test
But always be ready and answer in confess
Say this is your year
I am definitely going to preserver
It doesn’t what level of your career of where you are
The fact is you have experience and have gone far
Follow the R&B; line, “MAKE THAT MOVE”
Turn your career search like a smooth groove
Put the rhythm in your inspiration
Show your ambition in being the indication

FAITH EMBODIED
preservationman Jul 2019
In church on Sunday gone, one of the Ministers within the church preached a sermon with the theme, “WHERE IS YOUR FAITH?”
Look at the world in turmoil
People are living with not believing in Faith on this Earth soil\
How many people do you think don’t have Faith?
Too many to count huh
You would be counting into everlasting
Faith is a matter in having hope in believing
The blessings come when Faith is for you in receiving
But doubt seems to overshadow keeping people from reaching Faith altogether
Whether or not one believes in Faith, doubt only becomes temporary where Faith will take over
If you want hope, one must be open to believe
In order to overcome any struggle, one must believe there is assurance in overcoming
There is False Hope
This is where one thinks they can’t cope
But it is Faith that helps you cope and gives you hope
True Faith is moving through a storm and knowing you won’t be harmed
That is true Faith with the full garment of assurance
The full praise influence
Assurance you can count on through Faith
You are never alone
Yet Faith will always let itself be shown
The fulfillment being known
So try Faith when things get you down
Start believing and watch as Faith picks you up and praising being your sound.

NO HONOR, BUT PITY
IT ALL HAPPENED IN A BIG CITY
A KNIVE THAT HAD NO DIRECTION UNTIL POINTED
THE CUTTING EDGE
THE LOSS OF ONE’S PRIVILEDGE
EVIL IN MIND, BUT WHAT ELSE COULD BE COMBINED?

MARRIAGE VOW LOVE
preservationman Jan 2016
Togetherness of man and woman
The rings being the unity
Husband and Wife becoming their own community
Gathered together being the invited Guest that watch
Two flying Doves are overseeing the kiss in catch
The marriage being an honor of two
The vows of love they both must go through
Love in the eyes of the bliss kiss
Interlude within romance having its own accord
The entire wedding being carefully watched under the eyes of the Lord
Couples match to their own secrete beat
Jumping over the broom in making the entire marriage complete
The token of joy with the throwing of rice
The elegance of a wedding having an outstanding price
A wedding neither will forget
We won’t discuss or get into any regret
A marriage fit with a royal fest
Bliss and happiness in what two married couples will certainly confess.
preservationman May 2016
The thought of desire coming from within
A movement of steps in effort for one to begin
Determination rings out loud
A destiny with accomplishment to follow
But not let negativity make you hollow
Dignity with being proud of who you are
Honor with your establishments to look upon
Heavens guidance through direction
Heavens winds being an idea
Where does one go from here?
Anywhere that will spell preserver
Walk on, but without fear
A Heavenly voice encourages that God is always near
No need to stand in the shadows of the rear
You are the example of who shall achieve
You are the wonder that no one can deceive
Evil cannot touch
That might sound like much
But it’s the beauty of true success
However, only you will be able to confess
Your testimony being your experience
You have been given strong endurance
But always remember from where you were influenced
That walk seemingly a mile, but was preparation during while.

TO ACT OR NOT TOO ACT
preservationman Mar 2015
I was acting from a Shakespeare line
My heart was expelling in dramatics combined
My deepest emotions pouring out
I cried that thundered into a big shout
My voice of who I am holds no fear
It’s a new horizon that I hold near
Consequence is not my designated state
It’s how my ideas and aspirations come together in relate
Anger can be sharp s a ****** knife
But understanding is to think before and not twice
But should my life really go on
I have bound in these struggles for so long
My mind tells me I must be strong
I feel like a missing puzzle and there is no place where I belong
Yet I see sunshine with beacons of my shadow in the middle
The clouds seem to offer me encouragement from Heaven’s ways
The advice coming from Heaven in live, and enjoy the Earth stay
Depart not as a timing being on the spot
The idea is too have confidence and give life a shot
My woes became choses of I can win
With that thought, the curtain came down and the play was a finale at the end.

Yet a moment that shall tell
The YES in thinking positive in making the effect

I AM SOMEBODY
preservationman Jan 2015
I was brought up with dignity and pride
It is the biblical words spoken being my stride
No reason for me to duck and hide
I can continue to say, “I am Somebody”
A harsh voice wants me to respond without reason
But it is God that instills salvation for all seasons
Again I am somebody who does not take being last as a condition at the end
It is my life to continue too live
My experiences in share in multitudes of give
Many claimed they have walked who think they have been
But God has always been my reason clearly at the end
My question in thought to them was always on when?
I am somebody who has travelled far and observed
Yet today’s struggles my race in what people feel I deserved
My achievements are my talents in what I learned, but others who never tried
Keeping the faith is how I stride
Struggles suggest too let boundaries block
Yet God has his own timing being his own clock
But being somebody tells me not to stop
Encouragement tells me to keep reaching for the top
Freedom of expression and expelling of rights
This keeps me triumphant and not so uptight
Yet I must be merciful and polite
I am somebody where no one can make me change
Release the chains in what society wants to arrange
Let others continue to just complain
Because I am somebody I will remain
Aim to please is only to the Lord
A good faithful servant being the applaud
The one that made me somebody oh thank you Lord.

A POET’S HOLIDAY
preservationman Dec 2016
It was the holiday feeling where a Poet needed to write
From Poet to Poet, it was holiday greetings in being polite
A Poet writing sitting in a chair by the fireplace
As the Poet was at home, the snow started coming down
The feeling of Christmas was heard being the sound
While the Poet was at home, he didn’t worry because he was warm by the fireplace
Suddenly there were echoes of ranging bells
It was familiar being a Christmas Carol, and the Poet could tell
But what really surprised the Poet were his own words giving him holiday cheer being total inspiration
The Poet wrote many times, but being extra careful in not saying the wrong words
Even a little mouse sat and observed every word in the write on the Poet’s page
Both the Poet and the Mouse were amazed
But the snow outside got even heavier
In fact, it had become a snowstorm
So the Poet thought, “How would Santa travel through the storm?”
The Poet felt it was time to go to bed
The Lantern was turned off
Later the Poet felt into a deep sleep
Suddenly, Santa arrived and came down the chimney being his normal stride
But Santa’s Reindeer certainly had to hide
Santa left the Poet a special book, “Inspiring Poets in the Know”
Later, Santa took off and dashed away in the night
Well the Poet woke up Christmas morning and was surprised in seeing the book
Page after page, the Poet took a look
If you dream and believe enough comes with possibilities
Well the Poet appreciated the book
This was a Poet’s Holiday
Just like Rudolph, the Poet went down in history
Yet to others being false hopes, and to others no mystery
A Poet who writes today becomes words yonder ever after.

BULLIED JOUR

Beat down, but still around
My school days
Kicked and punched
All at once
Wounds with scars
Called out many times not my name
Totally lame
Tormented
I was saw as weak
Being easy to defeat
I deserved to be picked on
People’s wishes
I tried to remain strong
I even tried to get along
The bullies weren’t going to have it
I had to fight to survive
It was all in my stride
Reasoning definitely didn’t work
It took all of my Faith to win
Suddenly the bullying came to an end
Overcame
Fulfilled
Destined
I proved unstoppable
Unbreakable
Victory

The Lord and I talked on earth
Yes it seemed my life was transcending into a new birth
Yet we walked and talked
The Lord had encouragement for me
The things on this earth just let be
I am the Lord who sits high and looks below and I see
My heart was full of praise
It’s my testimony that would amaze
My candid look of Jesus face
This is something that I will never erase
That walk with thee
All this being his servant and being merciful to me
A Heavenly calm voice
The spiritual icon being the choice
The Savior who can make thunder roar
Oceans to behave
Make the earth shake
The wonders in behold
A stretched out hand
God’s power always at his command
Again those influencing words
I can tell you, I have heard
“One walk, one voice with faith to believe and an open heart to receive combined with the armory against the Devil to not be deceived”
My soul at the call of the Lord
Strength to withstand the evil of the sword
Powers from above
The flight like a white Dove
Divinity within salvation to think of.

But the question came up why?
It seemed the clouds had voices to live
The bible seemed to say, I had continuing living to give
No matter how bad things seem to get

It’s the Devil trying to confuse my mind
This always happens when the Devil uses his sources in combine

I was no longer a victim, and life became worth living in making a try.

MOTIVATIONAL KNOCK

Set your determination high
I hear a question from the floor of why?
You are the one to motivate yourself
Don’t depend ever on somebody else
Opportunity is giving you a chance
But don’t anxiety step in and advance
You have dreamed in bettering yourself
But always remember, you are not like everybody else
Your thoughts are your chosen ones
Once you have achieved your tasks, you will then be done
Being motivated is the ultimate word in keeping you charged
March like the Daracell battery rabbit in accomplishing more
Don’t stop, but continue to explore
The key being courage to open the door
Opportunity knocking, but don’t ignore
Be destined with a confirmed sure
The sun has risen
Your captioned shadows are the directions you should take
Every effort is the steps you should make
Opportunity is that you shouldn’t hesitate
Move on with numerous desires and be positive with being inspired.

The heart of many flowers
The aroma being genuine
Mama Edna who was so kind
She lit up the room where ever she entered
The smile that said, “Sit A While”
Now that was Mama Edna’s style
She was the guiding light being the family connection
The family were the gatherings and Mama Edna was the harmony
Whenever she laughed and spoke, it was wisdom speaking like a symphony
But through the laughter there were tears
It was pain being Mama Edna’s fears
Her heart was on sorrow
The thought, what would happen to her tomorrow?
The Lord heard Mama Edna’s call
At first it was a moment being a stall
But then Jesus answered and said, “Mama Edna, your room in Heavy is ready
Mama Edna didn’t hesitate because it was her chariot a waits

But Ampler needed professional advice
It was getting through all the proper loopholes
Turning perfection into behold

Courage with action and not stall
Walking across the falls for audiences being the multitudes for all

POETRY LAUGHTER

It was a letter telling a word have you heard?
An alphabet letter is better and a word is not
What is this some sort of plot?
What makes you think an alphabet letter is better?
As a letter of the alphabet, I can form many words used in many sentences
But the word responded as there are other instances
Now as a word, alphabet letters can be reversed to form other words to highlight the sentences
You are making me feel I should jump into some alphabet soup
The word said, I am only making my point being a coup
Now we don’t have to justify who qualifies
We just need to see eye to eye
Why don’t we just collaborate?
Now that is something all readers would appreciate
A journey against what’s in the hidden mind
Alphabet letter and words all combined
As time changes, so does alphabet letters and words
Now to the reader, have you heard?
A letter and a word have teamed up
There is no need to compete
Letters and words are the poetry treat
It’s what’s thought of and can be written.

It’s the determination to succeed and continuing inspiration in proceed
Joe who is the first Author, he wrote all about his life
He would often just sit and write sentences
But there was something in those sentences that had an impact
People would often read Joe’s sentences, and the readers would always say, “Your sentences seemed to attract”
Joe had never thought about being a writer until an Editor of a Magazine had a copy of what he wrote in the past, and suggested that he write a book
But the idea didn’t catch on right away in fact Joe had a puzzled look on his face
However Joe ventured out to see how writing his first book would sell
It became New York Times book list, and there’s your tell

Now Warren being another Author took a different approach
However, this is no joke
Warren was a thief in his past
But as he got older, his stealing didn’t last
Warren decided to write a book about being a thief and encourage young people that there is relief
He sat down and wrote every account of what being a thief was all about
But one reading of Warren’s story was nothing that any reader had to figure out
The whole point in putting stealing on alert
Warren wanted all readers to know that stealing is now a perk
Yet, Warren continued to write, but added being a Motivational Speaker
Two Authors having different lives
But with both outcomes and the word being strive.
