Earth look above
The atmosphere is moving in the sky to think of
Jesus is soon to come
The Earth will be among
Your flesh you think is all you got left
Your soul is what God would call
It’s the Lord that never ever let you fall
The hour is moving
The merciful God is ever so soothing
He doesn’t want your soul to perish
You are his servant being distinguished
The Devil wants your life to end
But with Jesus Christ, you will have a rewarding begin
The Devil’s aim is for you to be in his court to remain
He also wants you to point your finger at Heaven
The Devil is just mad because with blessings from Christ, he can’t get your soul
Jesus is about observe and behold
He conquers all
He also picks you up when you fall
When you pray, he is the one to call
All you have to do is dial “Pray Until”
Honest prayer and God will
Be steadfast, but yet remain still
These are God’s encouraging words
Opened ears and I hope you heard
Now go now and spread the word.

Tomorrow from yesterday
The past reminding for the future
The journey shall be until
The place, Smithsonian National Afro American Museum of History and Culture in Washington, DC
The date was April 22, 2017, Saturday
Heritage coming in many accomplishments and shouting voices
Legacies of choice
A time of discrimination
Places where rebellion rang high
Questions still remain as of why?
Historians who were determined to break racial barriers
Race being under one accord
Yet all guided by our Heavenly Lord
Wars fighting the many struggles
Freedom being only a word in distance of when
I am Black with a mind to think
Being a Slave they were told to obey
The whole idea of being a slave it was simply a resource being ok
But Black Scholars spoke out
Yet Race was about interacting with other Races and moving about
A time for justice being about time
We will use whatever resources combined
Fight we will, and win we shall
It didn’t matter Bloodshed or Death
Justice was coming no matter what
Marches all throughout the South
Town after Town with names called out beyond their own
Segregation being a term that was considered ok
But this America is about being free, and this was decreed from thee
The Freedom Riders with determined to fight and Greyhound Bus Lines was the one that opened the light
Marches and voices
Chanting Freedom, “We shall Overcome”
Air waves were spread into big waves being shore to shore
Afro-Americans were told they must stay in their place
The thought being from the opposition
But Afro-Americans knew they must position
Education was the number one tool
Having knowledge doesn’t make you a fool
It just makes opposition drool
Freedom did come, and Race was a combination in coming together
Smithsonian NMAMHC being a way of helping all Americans to see Freedom as a right
Smithsonian shed some light
Cause with effect
A purpose not being an elect
I am a Black who seen and conquered
Wonder no more
Just continue to educate and explore.

THE SKIES BEGAN TO CHANGE
EVERYTHING ALL AROUND SEEMED TO REVOLVE
NO ONE KNEW WHAT WAS GOING ON
SCIENTIST COULDN’T EVEN EXPLAIN
BUT COULD THIS BE THE END OF CIVILIZATION?
NOTHING HAVING A QUESTION THAT ONLY REMAIN
ETERNITY COULD VERY WELL BE AT THAT POINT
REVELATION OFTEN SAID CHRIST WOULD RETURN
BUT WAS CIVILIZATION READY?
THE CITIZENS WERE MOVING STEADY
YET THERE WAS A PANIC IN THE AIR BEYOND COMPARE
PEOPLE WANTED TO RUN, BUT WHERE WOULD PEOPLE RUN TOO?
FORMATION IS THE EARTH REARRANGE
ESCAPE IS NOT AN OPTION
TRAP DOOR NOT BEING THE CASE
THE AIR AND DARKNESS ALL IN THE PEOPLE’S FACE
FOOTSTEPS EVEN DON’T HAVE A TRACE
SO DARKNESS BECAME THE FINAL CURTAIN
THE HAPPENING WAS DEFINITELY A CERTAIN
DARKNESS WITH NO LIGHTS
THE END NOW HAS BECOME A PLIGHT.

I am at an all time high
Wonder why?
I am on a rollercoaster involving my own words in the up and down thrills
I am being taken in all kinds of directions
It doesn’t matter if it involves turns
I know it is all adventure, and I will venture back
It is the skies with no limit
I didn’t think a rollercoaster thought have being a poet an impact in me
But it does
It goes beyond the rollercoaster incline
But coming being adventure of words lines jolted down with joys of inspiration
The turn is only the appreciation
My mind in the unexpected mode of creation
My own words took me for a ride
It took me high above the people below
At first it was slow
Then the rollercoaster accelerated and it was all go
It was my own yells being gratification
I have been given the joy to write
Rollercoaster made sure in pure sight
So let you and I take a rollercoaster ride, and just see how far our combined words can go
Get ready to go downhill, and this is called “Free Will”
But hold on, as you won’t be able to keep still

A moment to think
All it takes is a wink
Seconds have passed even with the blink
Precision having a rush
Chatter that won’t hush
Eating breakfast that might taste like mush
Yet time with a purpose
Long and short hands being the quartz of a clock and watch
It’s the AM call with mass transit to catch
A rush having no time to pray
The forgotten mode that has gone astray
Time being acceleration in life on Earth
The seconds of a new living birth
It’s all a matter within timing
Knowing how much of valued time you have
Time with a message in “Use it wisely”
But the most important time is giving some time to Christ
He is the Holy one that gives sound advice
It’s his understanding bringing together wisdom and wise
As time revolves, there might be even a happy surprise
Time is controlled by the Holy One being his own acceleration
Time is about living and having appreciation
Time can be precious to some
Then there’s others where the value of time having none
The clock moves in accordance with the seconds in the hour
Time can also put termination being an expire
Time is simply surrounded with so much power
No time to keep up
Time precision zinc
It doesn’t matter what you and I think
The best of times and even the bad
The revolving time, but through the open door you should keep in mind.

Establishment, Empowerment, Heritage
Honor and Pride being appreciative
One’s voice having every right
Movement that can with decisions on when
There were times my theories were blocked
While others tried to mock
Concepts became resolutions
To this day we have educational institutions
I remember a time on when
The enemy was not your friend
It’s a wonder now
The years expired oh wow
A voice often had to think twice
You couldn’t ask a question nor give advice
To gain knowledge was an act being a chore
But you had to be determined in order to explore
It didn’t matter in one being blocked
It didn’t matter if it was a set up being a plot
Achieve it and you will receive it
Be determined and you will have discerned wit
Yes I achieved my legacy
It was that special blend of hard knots
Let my inspiration be your target
Become a commodity on the market
Believe and have confident
Excel but expect
Project and focus horizon vision
Let the legacy rise within
Later, let understanding carry you at the end.

A destination to
However many questions to think through
There seems to be a comparison of one
A differential being among
The where being a destined place
But which and where both share secrete
Yet without the E there is a mystery secret
A discovery to take place
Which being at what point?
Where a destination or appropriate spot found
But which and where do connect
They both have an effect
In order to go from which you have to know where
The understanding being the difference in comparison
Logically being the reason
Which do I pick?
Where being anywhere
Which and where for all too chose
A thought in you can’t lose
Yet be determined but don’t refuse.

But waiting for the interview will be a possibility

But you have been exposed to my writing and you get the idea
It was total encouragement that helped me preserver
Since I have been writing I haven’t encountered fear
My writing talent was God instilled

It was a vision I had
This was going to be the day I walked up too Heaven
It was going to be a long journey
I walked on a sunbeam at least at what it seemed
I knew I was Heaven bound
All around me there was no sound
So I walked and walked
As I walked, I also prayed and talked
Well according to the bible flesh as never seen Heaven
But then again, flesh will never ever see Heaven
But that didn’t stop my determination
Arrive or fail, the fact attempted being my indication
So I arrived outside the pearly gates
An Angel told me I had to wait
My name was not on the list
The Angel said “No, this wasn’t an miss
Your soul isn’t ready just yet
But the Angel didn’t tell me to get
There is much work needed on earth
Your writings on Earth is still needed for the world to see their new birth
God is counting on you to come through
Your spirit is in the right place
Don’t ever erase
No I am not trying to make a Federal case
The Angel said God has given you a voice in your writings
Words for the world too hear and the message to share
Heaven is on hold for you
Your day is not yet your slew
It is the everlasting to come that will be due
Walk back to Earth
You have been enriched in your own new birth
Your writings are God’s salvation to you
I am the Angel Galleo
You are called as God’s chosen fellow
Continue to write with God’s enduring words
With your voice, you will be heard
Go back to Earth and continue in your writing wonder
You have a writing horizon and it is yonder
Go now As God will show you how
The Earth is calling and no time for stalling
At that point I thanked the Angel Galleo
My next writing will be of my own pateo.

Some dreams can take affect
While others might to reject
In any event, dreams can become the actual
Yet be nothing unusual
A little boy would often dream of Driving a Real Greyhound Bus
You see, the little bus had lots of toy Greyhound buses, and dream of going from the toy Hound bus to the real one as his dream states
Well that’s an appreciate
The little boy thought of all of the Greyhound bus
Travelling from cities to town being pluses
But there is something about a dream that might have a message
It’s Desire, Commitment and Responsibility
But what does this have to do with a little boy’s dream?
The dream shows an open road into a career of possibility
Now don’t laugh
It could very well become a reality
How did this dream actually start?
The little boy would often travel on Greyhound a lot visiting his Grandmother in Chicago at Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays
However, the little boy was fond of animals, and the Hound dog perhaps captured the little boy’s heart
So the dream whisked the little boy into a reflection of destiny
The highway alone in the dream being encouragement
The Greyhound Bus itself showing the little boy the way
His little fingers on the steering wheel
The whole dream feeling like a movie reel
Wheels in motion
In the distance crossing a bridge across the ocean
All the wonders of the Greyhound bus
Grasping the little boy’s attention with no fuss
It all surrounds the Greyhound bus
Ok Thomas, it’s time to awake
You don’t want to get to school late
The little boy now is all grown up
He drives a real Greyhound Bus and travels the U.S. Continent
The dream did the preparation
The dream was simply a little boy’s hidden mind in creation.

We have Pork Chops that are tender
They are cut just right being slim and slender
Mash Potatoes I would recommend
Our seasoning is done in a special blend
Vegetables straight from the Farmer’s Market
Freshness you can depend
Our assortments of desserts stretch to no end
We don’t stop there
We have a new dessert called, “Multitude Galore”
It has various nuts, cream and little extras
But it is the flavor
Alcoholic and Soft Drinks to ignite your mouth
We have a new Alcoholic drink called “Southern Belle” capturing the South
But I have already said too much, let me shut my mouth
Thank you for coming to “Eating Delight”
Now you know our menu is out of sight.

President Trump and the House of Representatives of the Capitol
Gun Laws need too be strict
There must be a constitution that will make the law stick
Shootings have gone way to long
Schools are for learning where guns don’t belong
Students from everywhere are letting their voices be heard
But there is little utterance in response of words
How many more Deaths that will take place in schools?
Your standpoint seems to be a refuse
This is not a political game
Guns and more guns cannot continue to remain
President Trump and House Of Representatives, please open your mind with understanding, and do what’s right
We are now in a crisis, and it has formed a continuous wounds being a plight
What would it take to get you to understand?
Bullets have no name
It’s a mater of focus and then aim
Safety should be of the most importance and priority
We now live in an uncertain society and it has become a reality
Imagine if this were your Son or Daughter shot in a school, how would you feel?
However, think of this situation in actually becoming for real
You cannot blame President Obama on this
The House of Representatives made guns a hit and miss
President Trump, this problem falls into your lap
Don’t turn your back and the students, teachers and parents get a slap
Teachers, Parents and students shouldn’t have to worry for their lives
But it is about that any given moment
Shootings having no specific announcement
Anguish and disturbed
Dead can’t utter any word
Guns do destroy
They are certainly no toy
But what about other weapons
How much more grief must the world endure
This is cut and dry in being pure
Think hard, but construct documentation that will have meaning
The world has spoken out
It’s time for Washington movement is what the world is protesting about.

A man named Donald Coffin
We emailed each other quite often
Mr. Coffin was 93 years old
He had stories that were the best ever told
Mr. Coffin’s motor coach bus knowledge unmeasurable
I would hear within the email of the vast bus models he knew
I started calling him Dad
He would always say yes young lad
The acknowledgement and theory of my every question of buses
Dad answered my numerous questions without every tiring
Because of his bus industry devotion
I am trying to get a plague made being my motion
I want it placed at the Museum of Bus Transportation in Hershey, Pennsylvania
Mr. Coffin was instrumental at the museum itself
His bus knowledge was like a bookshelf
However, I was told by a person at the museum there wasn’t any space
The thought they need to erase
I have been to the museum twice
I find it hard to believe
However, I am backed up by Donald Coffin’s Son so I am relieved
Buses were my second Dad’s commitment and my project being determined
My preservation having indication
Salute to Dad
The remembrance of Donald Coffin being his student lad.

Heather Heyer
You will be missed
Your heroine efforts to fight what’s right
There was a darkness that surrounded you
But you were determined to be guided by God’s light
Your name and face will always be a vision of sight
It was your courage being determined with might
You felt racial barriers had no place in life
Protest from radical groups just didn’t understand
It was turmoil and over throw in their demand
But the Radical groups focusing on their own analysis and agenda
Yet Heather Heyer, you were distinguished being your involvement to accomplish
However your achievement was satisfied by Heaven
You may have died in the flesh
As Heather’s Mother put in, “You made my daughter magnified”
Your soul expels throughout  the Earth
Your commitment has given us an enriched new birth
We have become devoted with a wake up call in believing there is still hope
It’s about coming together and cope
We are all one breed
But White Supremacy cannot continue in terror in proceed
The theme having a purpose is “TOGETHERNESS ONE ON ONE RELATIONS”
Thank you Heather for that reminder
My praying hands raises to you
We need to finish what you started until through.

Who could forget the opening intro for Channel 5 10:00 PM NEWS, “Do you know where your children are?”
I knew where I was at home waiting for the 10:00 PM NEWS, and the image of the anchor Bill McCreary to speak
I was taking a Broadcast Journalism course at CUNY Hunter College
I witnessed first hand at Channel 5 Metromedia Television Station now known as FOX 5 Television Studio in New York City
My Hunter College class took part in the Live Studio Taping of the BILL BOBBS TALK SHOW
It was after the taping, I briefly spoke to Mr. Bill McCreary
How do I describe Bill McCreary, Professionalism and his words giving viewers his purpose in his stories
Mr. McCreary had explanations in what made his stories come to life
One particular news story was MALCOLM X, and Mr. McCreary had interviewed Dr. Betty Shabazz, widow of Malcolm X
I had the pleasure and honor to have Dr. Betty Shabazz as one of my Professors at CUNY Medgar Evers College, my Alma Mater
I hope you see a connection
Influence and assurance coming together
Tomorrow was more than a thought in reality
Mr. McCreary brought what could have been an Impossible Dream
He showed how opportunity can happen
So Mr. McCreary showed me I am the wonder within, but don’t look yonder, but look directly at your front door in possibilities
Let truth always be in our hearts, and honesty set the tone in meaning
My tomorrow came with understanding by the media eyes of one man being wise
Bill McCreary wants the world to remember him in his stance behind purpose
Reasoning having no doubt
Yet it was clear in being obvious
You don’t want the world to cry, but I am saddened
You will not be forgotten
Your Soul is my behold
Stand up and be bold
Heaven needed you, and you answered the call
The 10:00 PM Nightly News is missing a distinguished anchor
It’s you Mr. Bill McCreary
Every step I take will be an effort behind every inspiring try
It’s not goodbye, but until we meet again

Man meets Woman
Saw each other as just another commuter
Average straphangers
They weren’t expecting romance
Subway ride through the love tunnel
Suddenly a change of pace
Rush hour minute
Usual crowd
As the Man and Woman were pinned together on a crowded subway train
This is where the subway romance began to build up
Eye to Eye facing each other
The man kiss to the woman
Love came front and center target
The romance of two
They dated for months and three years
They were now Husband and Wife
The daily subway ride had made the romance rise
No surprise
Transit hub match

Trick or treat before I forget
You are our invited guest
It would be our honor if you accepted being our request
But there is something I want to share
The Theme is “Beware”
Don’t be surprised who stops for a bite
But just don’t take that too light
Because it is Halloween
Where there are many surprises in between
Lights will start going out
Within the Darkness there will be screams in shout
Doors will be like tomb shut tight
Creatures will arrive from everywhere
But remember you were warned in beware
Don’t forget to dress in costume in whoever you want to be
Did I leave anything out, let me see?
Get ready to dance
This will be your moment at every chance
The dance floor will become a creature prance
No more to say than “Happy Halloween”
Duck, Flying Bats!

Let us entertain and guide you
Often Tourist will say, what will we do today?
Exploration throughout the Tourist stay
Hotels to chose from based on price
At times, relying on Internet advice
Take in a Broadway Show
Entertainment with Dramatics putting the Tourist in the know
Dining and Wining in one setting
This is a vacation, so give yourself a treat
Walk up and down the New York City Streets
There are so many Restaurants offering you places to eat
Cuisine will have a sizzle
Taste will awaken the Tourist senses
New York City is a town that never sleeps
You will have no time for my soul too keep
Front Line Rivers from the Hudson to East River
Sightseeing boats showing New York City like never before
After the Bus Tours, you will be heading for the New York City Pier Shores
But New York City doesn’t stop there, it extends into the suburbs of Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx and Staten Island
New York City has so much too offer, you won’t see everything the first time around
But you will once again be New York City bound
Hustle and Bustle of New York City will be your remembrance sound
It doesn’t matter if it was Downtown to Uptown
There are activities all around to be found
Persuasion with a purpose on key
This is New York City being everything it should be
So when you leave, please come back
It is exactly like that
In fact, you won’t be able to keep track
New York City offers delight
The Broadway Great White way add to the spotlight
New York City being the Empire State
There are the Catskills and Adirondacks
Expand your mind while breathing in fresh air
It’s nothing beyond compare
It doesn’t matter if it is New York City itself
New York City is not like everybody else
There you have it for now
You should be saying oh wow
Fashion your style
All that during while
That’s it for now.

Have a seat
As I transcribe
A jolt down
The bench and sit
The weather was perfect for it
Sky words with the sun warmth
Here and there
Difference beyond compare
Mind lair
Moments to share
Every bench
Observation alert
Words suddenly come to mind
Every movement, a reason with a purpose
Need to write
I am giving the reader to look and it’s an invite
Totally relaxed
The vibes just right
The source of my compose write
No complain
Not even lame
The bench seat green
Words being lean
Write is with a write on

Tomorrow will be
Today is too live
Inspiration we all should give
Blessings to receive
Block out the Devil to deceive
Praise to on high
Daily praying words to thy
Trust that tomorrow will be
But it is the all the possibilities in wait and see
Today the world must explore
Heavenly vibes one should not ignore
Our lives are in the hands of Faith
Praying hands hoover the world
A world needing healing
Faith being the coping dealing
Heaven sees the inner soul
The Lord is the wonder in one’s behold
True salvation means be bold
It doesn’t matter if you are young or old
Tomorrow will be
A Heavenly test if you have trust and be patient in wait and see.

I remember all so well
In fact, this is a must tell
It was Washington, DC at the monument where we first kissed
Now that is nothing to miss
It was romance that I will never forget
In fact I have no regret
It was that starry night
But war was going on
You told me to remain strong
You were an Army man
The Army needed in demand
But there was something about your Army Uniform
That War kiss when I closed my eyes was full caring and loving
It was everything nice
I certainly didn’t need any advice
I remember holding your hand into mine
The Moon was Full and there was a sense of interlude
I didn’t want that kiss to end feeling like a conclude
But there was something you wanted to ask me
I thought what exactly could it be?
We walked to the Washington Mall
There was crowds being a multitude of all
At that very moment, you proposed to me and I said yes
But I was on cloud nine I must confess
A Year later, we became Man and Wife
Our love still stands today as if it was yesterday
The Nations Capitol brought us together
War didn’t even separate us
We were on accord and didn’t fuss
Our love was a romantic chapter from the very start
War wasn’t going to stop us from being apart
Our marriage is as strong as it was the beginning
Our love still has the inning
Washington, DC surely appreciates
I still remember that date
A Wife and former Soldier salute
I still know how to play that flute
We still have that everlasting love and it remains me often when I see two flying Doves.

Sprinkle of showering words
Rainbows being the sentences
The Poet’s emotions targeting instances
The Darkened Clouds in what is too come
The inside of a Poet’s heart being like flowers that bloom
Yet the Poet writes alone in a room
The inspiration will come at noon
The sunshine may be hidden
The Poet notes what is written
Showers only refresh
The Poet’s mind being awaken to write
The midnight Oil well into the night
Rain that helps the Poet to explore
It’s the sunshine that helps the Poet to soar
The Poet often says, “Shower me with wisdom and understanding”
Let the rain pour and not turn my thoughts sour
Give me ideas hour after hour
Shower me with cleansing words
Let readers have an open heart
As a Poet, I have been showered to write
This is a Poet’s given right.

I have crossed the Ever After Bridge many times before
It wasn’t in the spiritual, but the fleshy body I can’t ignore
But on this specific trip
The bridge span had a very deep dip
One wrong time and one could slip
But I was on this bus
It was the multitudes that derive in us
As the bus climbed on the high span on the bridge
It seemed like the entire span was a ridge
Well as the bus approached the bridge bend
It seemed like this was the end
This is when
The end part was extending down to the water
This was the exact sequence order
That means the bus would have to surface in order to float
Yet the bus was a land vehicle and not a boat
It was my expression in hesitate
Then later thinking my life would no longer relate
I was now in a panic state
My life would have to come to believe
This is for me to see the evidence in receive
The bus started moving within the water
I thought the bus might just sink
But it was only my thought of think
Despite the buses weight
My life began to have assurance even to this date
The Ever After Bridge being a remembrance in the slate
A remainder that obvious is never too late
It is all about believing in becoming participate.

It all happens under one roof
It’s intriguing to the youth
I am your Narrator and Ring Leader
What better to tell about the Circus while being Front and Center
Young and Old, please enter
Now that everyone is seated
You are about to be greeted
Let the clowns introduce themselves
Laughter and unexpected surprises should be on your face
It will be powder thrown
You the audience caught in the action being an unknown
A Clown will be sitting in your lap
Don’t be surprised if you will be wearing a Clown Cap
But one thing that will be sure, you will be in some much laughter, you won’t want a nap
Now that the Circus has begun, it is now time for some spectacular fun
I am so glad you are among
Look high above, it’s a Trapeze act that will have you sighing with Ah
Transformation from one Trapeze feat after another
But stay in your seat and not on your feet
Take in the talent as you view above
Perhaps become a Trapeze Artist yourself you will be thinking of
So you want more
I am happy to explore
Imagine if the animals could talk, but that would be through Dr. Doolittle
Yet the Circus animals are their own show, some fierce while others are just plain lovable and tamed
It’s about pleasing the audience and that is the aim
Elephants doing various tricks
Look out, you are about water in your face being the Elephant’s pick
Tiger’s and Lion’s on my
Watch from seat as the Tiger’s and lion’s are behind the cage
But don’t worry they are not in rage
The Lion Tamer has everything under control
The amazement will leave you breathless taking hold
All this happens Center Stage
The show of all shows at any age
******* jacks and Popcorn fitting for the Circus
But it is the audience taking it all in as they witness
The curtain and lights come down
Applause from the audience will be coming the crowd
Entertainment in Razzle Dazzle
Circus fun
On the road again, the circus is done.

High rise above
Flightless, but no Dove
A Young Man knocked on a Female Senior’s door
He wanted to make sure she had a balcony for sure
The Young Man pushed the senior out of the way, but only after the senior said “Yes”, he headed for her balcony to explore
He leaped to his Death from the 12th Floor
The Young Man died on impact
Reasons unknown
An investigation will have to be shown
This could be called “Valentine Leap”
His soul is wandering in who will keep
The arrow that pierced that was fierce
Love no longer on the line
Possible love rejection just might be the indication
But the Young Man holds the key
What could the motive be?
Death being the actual
The Young Man would be the factual
Death took its toll
The accords, no one knows for sure
This situation is nothing to ignore
What do any witnesses know?
Suicide was on the line, but whatever the circumstance it wasn’t fine.

Does anybody know what the ship “Emily Morgan” is?
Think hard as I might be giving a Quiz
The ship is of a Merchant Vessel
But someone famous you know was part of this ship
However, here’s a tip
It’s a famous store name in Herald Square
The name is advertised regularly on the air
The man’s name is R.H. Macy
But here is the full name Rowland Hussey Macy
Mr. Macy was a Merchant ****** from Nantucket in Cape Cod, MA
If you are or were a Macy’s shopper, I am sure you didn’t know that being part of Macy’s Heritage
But I wanted to share being my privilege
So set sail was how Mr. Macy ventured
But it was the mightier the storm, the wonders of the adventure
Mr. Macy was often guided on the Emily Morgan using his own initiative
He sailed on the seas of Cape Code, but New Bedford, MA being one of his ports
So the Emily Morgan was a ship with a Macy’s Department Store mission
Mr. R.H. Macy was a Merchant ****** that made it happen.

Preparation during the prior year
Perspiration in intensity in high gear
Muscle structuring having a high note
What am I talking about, “The Mr. Olympia 2018 that is a regular event, and to Professional Bodybuilders, this is a dream being Heaven sent
However, the Olympia event comprises of various Divisions such as Women’s Fitness, Women’s Bikini, Men’s Fitness, Amateur 212 and Professional Male Bodybuilders for the Mr. Olympia title
Muscles being pushed into toned under the stage lights
Extravaganza that’s always out of sight
Each competitor telling the Judges in don’t take their posing light
Their muscles is what keeps them might
The roar of the audience in being a competitor’s loyal fan
Bodybuilders dazzling posing with specific creative moves
The idea of getting the Judge’s attention having a posing routine being a winner with everything to prove
Yet the enthusiasm that must be smooth
But the Mr. Olympia title being a world proclaim
It’s that First Place being the aim
The Top Five is what Judge’s will see alive
A check and a Trophy of accomplishments in strive
Well 2018 was a surprise, as Shawn Rhoden became the New Mr. Olympia Victorian
For several years, Phil Heath controlled the throne of Mr. Olympia
But this year, he was dethroned
What the Judge’s saw was Shawn Rhoden that stood
So there was an upset
Shawn Rhoden had all the components of muscle density and conditioning
Phil Heath questions in how did Shawn Rhoden win
It is because he can
Shawn Rhoden was the Conqueror with a mission of quest
But Phil Heath could care less
So negativity spreads the media waves
The fact is Shawn Rhoden is the new champion and everyone should just behave
Someone who always wins also comes a loss
But the new champion everyone must accept
Who will be the new champion of Mr. Olympia 2019?
We will have to wait and see
Until next year, keep it lean.

Battles of the world
Powers of incantations
Flight of Broomsticks
Evil on the minds
Witches brew with a broth
Human stew
Witches sleuth
Determined with desire
The *** full of fire
Witches with no remorse
Revenge and more revenge
Battles to win
Worlds to transcend
Transform
No Fiddle Faddle
Incantations disappear
Witches in and out

A talking Mother Model T
The car is everything it should be
Yet my Mother the car has a human son
A car that knows how to discipline
A Model T that is Heaven sent
But don’t make Mother Model T mad
You will be sad and not glad
Don’t be surprised on the response if you say the wrong thing
It could be a seat eject having a aching sling
But then again, the wheels that turn could have you put in an urn
However, if Mother Model T is driving, you better bucket up
Otherwise, the most uncomfortable ride that will make you fed up
Yet Mother Model T is in control
Don’t even think of mentioning to Mother Model T that she is old
Mother Model T will certainly have you in a hold
The streets are Mother Model T thresholds
A wonder having no questions, but the car being its own
But I guess you would have known
So Mother Model T knows
Her way in discipline always shows
All one can say is wow
Mother Model T is always on the go
But leaves one in the moment of although.

My faith had gone weak
It seemed my life had no meaning and was bleak
It was struggles and challenges I went through all week
I felt trapped in my tears
Perhaps holding on to fears
My sorrows had no tomorrow’s
But as my eyes looked up at the skies
The wonders of God reassured me in being wise
I wasn’t alone
Every day it is something new the Lord continues to let be known
He sits high but looks below
I am God’s creation in the show
Don’t ever let salvation go
His words are strong as thunder
The winds blow like no other
The oceans are just one example of struggles
But as you walk along the beach
The destiny has become a new reach
God’s word begins to teach
My sunrise of faith being restored
My sunset in believing explored
A time for faith
A walk with my God
I am no longer astray
My tomorrow has become of this day.

You didn’t know that Poets could sing?
But singing is only one thing
Being a Poet is the writing wing
Now being Poets our singing might be a little off
As you can imagine, we might even cough
Our talent might become “Poets who Sing and Write”
We are not trying to be overwhelming polite
As Poets, we just want to shed some light with music being the harmony to help us Poets out
But to the readers just don’t shout
Our words enchanted in song and poetry
Writing became the ever after
Emotions being the influence within
Poets that can
Readers being on ready set go on when
This is the Poets time to shine and unwind
It’s also a Wake Up call for prospective Poets to put out their own write
Let it be front and center in plain sight
Even dogs are getting into the Poets act as they take a bite
So Poets who sing once again that’s the Poets new thing
However, what surrounds the Poet is the inspiration the words bring
Now the readers are surprised in the Poet’s singing and poetry words have a sting
But we got the reader’s attention being the closeness in cling.

You didn’t want me when I was born
You wasn’t attentive in my yond
You were not a Mother to look upon
You were a Mother in be careful with a warn
You often said you wished I were dead
Yet you lived your life in fun instead
A Mother’s live is affection to think of
The cherished moment from Babe to Adult
Now that’s where love comes in being felt
You despised me having my Grandparents raise me
If it weren’t for them where would I be?
You never ever took the time
It was a long distance with no view
Thank God I have a different intellect
So I know all about a Mother’s neglect
I also know what effect
I am a person that choose friends in elect
So Mother you will never get my love
There is nothing to think of
Your verbal abuse had no effect
I have become better than that
Now that you are old
My salvation is enriched in behold
It’s intervention from within
A Grandmother through encouragement always had the right words in when
I am proud in who I have become
Don’t bother Mother to capture the moment
The sun has gone down and I am nowhere to be found.

Your mobile device you won’t let alone
Yet your total phone conversation in being known
Everywhere you and your device goes being the flow
Constant looking at being a show
You talk to half the world
Yet it makes individuals head swirl
Your phone device conversations can be long and sometimes disturbing
But you must always keep your phone charged up
Your phone device must have a specific look
It’s always those selfie pictures that you took
The brand has to be just right
However, it must not make others feel uptight
Connections being straight out
Technology as that is what I am talking about
No need to shout
You can hear me now and wow
Yet sometimes people want to give someone a Pow
Communicate in need when the time is right
But don’t turn into a dramatic verse being a sight
So sorry you can hear me now
What was I thinking oh wow.

Miracles, Spiritual and Blessings
What do they have in common?
Simply speaking, encouragement with a talk with the Lord in overcoming a Health battle
Heaven holds the key
It’s the amazement for all to see
Health issues Doctors really don’t understand
A call to jesus is in demand
A dial up being prayer
Now let’s continue on from here
Senator John McCain has been diagnosed with Brain Cancer
Father in Heaven look on Senator John McCain
He needs a healing, but if it is your will
Doctors can on rely on a medicine pill
But Jesus you are truly the one that can fulfill
Please heal Senator McCain from the crown of his head to the soles of his feet
Encourage his family to look up
Lord, you are in control and for the family to not get fed up
I am a witness to what you can do
I had health issues at birth
Yet Doctors finalized that I would be leaving this Earth
Death and nothing but Death on the Doctor’s lips
But the Lord had other plans and living being an extended life
The Doctors said I will only live to the age of 7
Witness God’s miracle for all and Senator McCain, I am 60 years old and still living under Heaven’s breathing oxygen
Senator McCain never lose sight
This is only a temporary spite
Healing power coming from above
Blessings that come down below
Senator McCain, please take it slow
Of course be careful and patient as you go
Lord, give Senator McCain my praying hand
Let it reach him like a caravan
This I pray
Connection my relay
Amen on this day.

Words on top of words
It’s a title that just wants to be heard
This is the time to just settle back
Having one’s feet up on recline and just reflect
The focus on time going by
The moments being a cry
The reflection on loved ones who passed on
A blessing being how I got along
The friends I met who gave me plenty of confidence in knowing my life in belong
Yet the message was always clear in continuing in remaining strong
The mind being a foundation and as strong as the constitution
Yes this is my story
Please don’t add your inspiration being my glory
Understanding until the end
Beams of light through the clouds that transcend
There is a tomorrow of a new day to begin
Inspiration to start with footsteps being the mark
The past a word offering the future
The image being a picture
Forward on Forward on, but yet continuing moving and doing, but be solid strong.

Every night I try to sleep
I find myself counting sheep
My Husband’s snoring is driving me nuts
I know the Neighbors can hear as the windows aren’t shut
I am hoping for a miracle of silence
Well in the meantime, let me read a book
Wouldn’t you know it, the book is titled, “Don’t let Snoring keep you up”?
Who wrote this book, Rip Van Winkle?
But then again, perhaps I should do the up close approach to my Husband’s snoring, let me get a hammer, and tell him its hammer time
Who am I fooling?
Even the hammer wouldn’t work
I thought of putting a pillow over my Husband’s entire head leading to the mouth
But that would probably cause my Husband in thinking ******
I don’t need to be on “****** She Wrote”
My only request is, let me sleep for goodness sake
That snoring I can’t take
Suddenly for the moment the snoring grows silent
Now I can finally sleep
My Husband said good morning and woke me up
No I don’t need Folgers in my cup
Well it is AM
Work you know
Have a good day got too go

I saw and went forth to accomplish
It was torture and I endured anguish
Ammunition everywhere
It was more than any war compare
This was a global battle affair
As a Soldier, we had to beware
Bloodshed and wounds
The American flag cloth and casket bearing death
But it was dignity having a destiny
An honor not looking for any pity
I fulfilled my quest in being military’s best
Words that go beyond any battlefield
It was my silent words within being concealed
All that and more during my war days while
A mission that was at hand
Seeing the endless horizon being the demand
I still remember the ashes of destruction
There was no longer any distinction
I lived the life as a Soldier
The war yet continues
But the Lord said, “I fought a good fight”
Come home to Heaven and redeem the rewarding light
The sun shines on me
My face is the vision that all will see
My military fight is done
But continue Soldiers where I left off and be among
A battle is never done until finished.

Laughter for Evil
Surprises upon surprises
A smile with a plan
Sinister demand
What to expect
Evil revenge
Lies through the smile
No trustworthy
Honesty questioned
Wonders of the Joker’s box
Joker’s card foolery
Like it or not
Win or lose
Being confused
No heart of gold
You have been told
Joker’s wild

You heard of Mount Rushmore
But that is not the subject to explore
It’s the aroma of Mount Kiss More
The acceleration of the Kiss
The height that’s called “Romance Point”
It’s a place where one reaches the top then comes the Couples Kiss
The mission of Mount Kiss More is for everyone to cherish the kiss in love more
The breath taking view in not taking love for granted
Love has its own description within having assured
Yet the kiss in love something that should be applaud
Mount Kiss More has several motto’s of love written throughout
Yet being so high as one shouts out, it actually echoes out
It’s like a boomerang that echoes back
However, love in the heart starts just like that
Kissing being where ever love is at
Love and Kiss
Solitude being no miss
So Mount Kiss More, thank you for a journey up
Your message being, “Love doesn’t ever give up”
Kissing being the beauty of a relationship
Imagine Mount Kiss More giving us the tip
But it is up to families to make the effort and time being a trip
Don’t let the kiss and love slip
Mount Kiss More is worth the trip.

It was his younger years in being a competitive Bodybuilder He competed in numerous Bodybuilding Contests and won It was his sheer dedication in not being out done It was other sports just for fun The Old Man saw a challenge in what sacrifice that came with Bodybuilding The weights were the Old Man’s determination from lifting back then But his career with the weights didn’t have to end It was encouragement from another to continue to train on Train the Old Man did and it was hours long The weights became the desire with the fire This has always been the Old Man’s regime in being the principle It’s just that simple Age may have accelerated on The Old Man was inspired to continue to be strong His muscles greeted the weights with every given lift As an Old Man, you don’t have to be Stift Intensity was in the Old Man’s eyes Yet he has acquired wisdom and experience of wise Train until Bodybuilder still The mind for training in will Old Age won’t stop My young days in being a Bodybuilding champion in dedication in what put me at the top There is no reason for the Old Man to stop Train, Lift and Construct The Old Man’s theory, “I lived to be, my Bodybuilding muscles from before all to see, and all my desire in what my training should be” An after training Flex, and image still, but with a determined will.

Lottery ticket I hope I win
Let my fortune be in sight
Perhaps I am being too polite
The lottery ticket will make me rich
The thought of it is making me itch
I will try to be myself
It will be my own Robin Leech affair
I will handle my lottery ticket win with care
I must be careful in whom I share
I must think financially wise
Maybe start my own enterprise
I am beginning to feel energized
Imagine my own corporation having a skyscraper 80 stories aiming for the sky
But between you and I
One can dream
We can think what would seem
Inspiration is surging from a nearby stream
I am still thinking lottery rich
However, I will wait until I reach cross that bridge
It would be a blessing being a privilege

Medgar Wiley Evers, a name strong and powerful
The college, a mission of knowledge, Understanding and Education excellence
The beauty of essence
CUNY Medgar Evers College being my discovery
Yes this is the story
Medgar Evers College showed me the way in being the person I was seeking and supposed to be
I became the graduate the world did see
I was a truly believer in Evers Teachings
It was the transformation enhancement of the Medgar Evers College uplift
Coming to Medgar Evers College was the balance of what can be achieved and the offset of Social Justice
I learned knowing where I belong
Being prepared for the challenge in getting along
Yet, Medgar Evers College enriched my educational soul like an upgraded electronic component
Stand on purpose with a mission in mine
Set the standards while drawing the line
The discovery of Medgar Evers College was my own exploration
I was on the launching pad, but aimed with the foundation of learning being success
Being my MEC alumni was my honor and privilege of appreciation
Many said I was not college material
But Medgar Evers College changed that into “I was Capable”
Destiny was in my corner because of Medgar Evers College efforts
So Medgar Evers College fulfilled me in being one of their many products for success and beyond
Words can be expressed, but understanding must be an answer. Medgar Evers College showed my own elevation into education as an open door. I entered and was enriched with instilling self-esteem in every way. Medgar Evers College objective was my take away of always remember and don’t forget.”

A loss soul needs a prayer
I can feel the blessing in the air
My life feels as if over cast clouds have gathered
I am smothered with no space
The atmosphere have taken its place
But praying hands extend in welcome
A very merciful voice says come
I was suddenly touched by a superior power
It all happened before the hour
A surge of the Holy Spirit began to settle in
A blessing that truly came within my life
A higher calling with inspiring advice
I felt so much praise
My assumption was quickly changed to Devotion
I found salvation
It was a wonder from Heaven
The greatness of thy
The praying hands that led me in the right direction
Prayer was definitely the key
The salvation road it was meant to be.

I am all packed for my Greyhound bus ride
The relaxing reclining seat what Greyhound will provide
I got my Round Trip Ticket in my tote
Destination being Richmond, Virginia
It will be seven hours journey
But it will be family I will see
It will be togetherness what Thanksgiving is supposed too be
The Turkey being perfectly craved
I can tell you one thing, I won’t starve
The food will be all laid out on the table being a spread
I am just thinking on all the blessings of having a family
Greyhound is bringing me back home where my life all began
Greyhound has always been my beginning to end
When my bus arrives in Richmond
Family will meet and greet me
My Thanksgiving will begin the moment I arrive
Well, we arrived On-Time in Richmond at Five PM
Family a waits
At least Greyhound made sure I wouldn’t be late.

My words from yesterday
Inspiration that followed everlasting
The words that took there proper place
Yet sentences no one could ever erase
Proud and honor to be a Poet
But I am letting you know it
It became my writing movement in time
My words being like turn of revolve
But with the resolutions to solve
My purpose was and still is today
However, my internal and extending into external in stay
Sometimes you would find me writing even by the Bay
I never thought or dreams of ever being a Poet
I just started writing with positive encouragement, and the writing then followed
Pass Legends like Benjamin Franklin and Langston Hughes being my inspiration to write
Gave me mission to write and continue writing
My thoughts that were hidden stories locked in my mind
Yet a voice from within unlock and let your words come out
But friends were also my encouragement, as they stated I have a lot to tell about
My tomorrow simply arrived at the precise moment
Seconds came and it was a reckon expectation
However, I learned too make my writing a appreciation
It was write while you can
Then keep writing until then
But who would have thought?
Writing was a wonder to my eyes
Yet to the reader, what a surprise
Realization at it’s best
My own experiences that only I can confess
My dramatization being participation
My amazement being nothing up my sleeve
But confident in writing that one can achieve
Yet my own sentences sending a message like a refreshing breeze
Oh I just feel simply at ease
So now you know
I am my own Poet Legend, but not trying to make a show
I am only wanted to put you in the know
But I didn’t want to do a quick acceleration, but take it slow
Pass Legend Poets you, but wanted to be added to list
In other words, I wanted this to be a new twist
Writing seriously is totally from the mind
Yet be simple and kind
Reach out and write
Encourage others but with the plight
That describes me in plain sight
Oh the words and sentences that came out
I encourage too write on
But being a Poet, I know where I belong.

I have a slavery folktale of my own
I am Mae Rock, and I was once a slave
Always taught being black you must behave
How did I get the name Mae Rock?
I was named for Unbreakable, Unstoppable and Strong as a Solid Rock
The Plantation owner named me that for that very reason
I would often rebel after being beaten and refused the plantation ways
I knew I had to getaway
During those slavery years, you would find me reading the word and praying morning, Noon and night
One slavery night, I tried to escape
I crossed the river that was in South Carolina on state line heading for North Carolina
Ever so close leading to the North
When morning came, the plantation owner discovered I was gone
They had their dogs to track my scent and foot prints, but because I went through the river, they loss total track of me
I was determined to never go back to the plantation nor slavery live again
Sometimes I would tire, but knew I had to push on with all inner strength I could muster
The Lord guided me throughout my journey
I met fellow slaves along the way
In my Southern Draw is all I knew
I encouraged the other slaves to make their way North and escape to Freedom
Mae Rock’s words were, “You have to live and breathe as any person walking this Godly Earth. The Heavenly skies spells “Freedom”. The ways of the oppressed plantation owners could no longer being tolerated”
Suddenly a crack of Thunder, Flash of Lightning came along with the pouring rain and a rush of the mighty winds
It was decreed at that very moment that all slaves had to be free
It was as if that was God’s decree, and he had spoken
Freedom came loud and strong
All the slaves knew where they belonged
Head North for a better life
Mighty and true
Success in pursue
Mae Rock’s Legacy for generations to come, “Live out your dreams with spirit and destiny. Be true to yourself and to others. Don’t ever be silent, but always vocal. Time will come in your favor, but you must believe”
A Slavery Folk song says “Dance before the Lord as he is the melody through circumstance, and breaks all barriers. Enrich your mind and voice on one accord. It’s assurance that comes from the Lord”
