Trying to put the words where they belong
I have been writing all so long
A Poet writes what they feel
It could be one’s reality for real
A Poet can write hours after hours
But when a Poet reads what they wrote, it doesn’t sound like the inspiration being spoke
A Poet writes more
But the mind states, there’s more to explore
The night can turn Midnight
It’s those very hours the Poet should be a sleep
But it’s the Poet’s inner emotion soul he wants to keep
Sweat pouring down with a tomorrow that has already came
What have I written?
Is it something forbidden?
I am surrounded by sentences feeling like a gate
But being a Poet, can I relate?
Shadows of me
Darkness no one can see
A Poet doesn’t need a name
It’s a write with an idea that came
Some say, a Poet is nothing more than a game
A Poet writes what’s in their head
Yet sometimes people feel misled
Only a Poet knows when they are a Poet
It’s the confidence to show it
It doesn’t matter if people don’t understand
A Poet will always be in demand
The Poet has the passcode, and it is called “Unload”.

A Poet to be who was in bed thinking lying down
Eyes focused in the room looking all around
He wrote down some words
But the question within him how will he be heard
A Poetry Festival was coming to his town
A new approach that had been found
The Poet prepared some of his writings to the test
He wanted to make sure they were his very best
It will be poetry to read having inspiration to proceed
Oh the thought in deed
The Poet became an actual Poet
No longer being a Poet to be
The audience witnessed themselves in applause and they did see
The Poet explained to the audience he never gave any thought in being a Poet
It was something in the ceiling that gave him the idea
As you can see he did preserver
But I encourage anyone with a desire to write
Unlock your mind with fear and don’t be uptight
Take your time and watch as words accelerate
Writing is never too late
Let your mind tell you what to say
Thinking in the moment is certainly ok
Don’t hesitate in write, just expel in write
Before you know it, you will find you were meant to be a Poet
It was just having courage to show it
A Poet I am and shall be
Now I am making writing my life for all to see.

My voice went from write to rhyme
My pen from letters into words
A freedom of formation in wanting to be heard
When others told me my writing needs to stop
I am busy now so please just knock
Enter in if you mean good
If you can’t then be still as I have a writing will
People tried hard to put my writing down
But my determined desire continued in me being around
Constant attempts in efforts for me to fail
Through the skies of inspiration, this is how I prevailed
My writing being a gift sent from above
It’s the poetry swing with everything to think of
I am exercising my Freedom of speech
It’s the entire world I am trying to reach
Write on and calm down
A Poet’s destination is an ongoing bound
We learn to adapt
We are creative in a snap
Yes I have transcended from a writer and advanced to Poet
My words establishing from my mind being a still well
But as a Poet I have triumphed in gaining experience in tell
Words that don’t wait nor hesitate
But one thing that is sure, I always participate
A Poet of me being reality in which you see
The mission being Poetry being everything it should be
Take a poetry ride with me and you will see
The sunrise is your wake up call
A call to write
Influence to excite
Poetry stands alone
As a Poet, I had to let it be known
Now you know, poetry is full blown.

Deeper beyond any words in write
Destruction at every corner having a strange direction
Yet a plight with numerous complications
A Poet’s thought of life in the mind
A bit of surprises that might seem sublime
The Poet writes what they had experienced
The emotions were disturbed by a storm within
The storm became severe
There was a roadblock with no idea of how to preserver
The Poet’s mind became a conclude
The formulation was no solitude
But something told the Poet to jolt down the words
Immediately there was a silence with no sound
The Poet had no idea in where they would be bound
It wasn’t a place nor a town
But the Poet knows who they are and will construct a write down
The sustain will continue to remain
Yet the Poet dwells blame
A theme suddenly pops into the Poet’s head, “For Once It Came”
It’s all but a memory of a dream
It was long time ago standing as a youngster playing by a stream
I must return to reality, and think Poet
But as I write, I understand within my own convictions, and as a Poet, I now know it.

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.

Not a magic carpet flying in varying directions
But it is a journey well taken
Distance far
It doesn’t involve using a car
It’s the inner thought
Words that just come to mind
At times it might seem sublime
But it’s the Poet being one of a kind
No one can tell a story unless one truly has one
It doesn’t mean end before it is done
Poet establishes until complete in being among
Yet the Poet’s flavor is about fun
After all, they are next to none
Travel in the in the mind can be anywhere
Experiences to share beyond compare
Emotion from the heart
But that is only one start
A Poet is always on the move
It’s the words within the sentences to prove
It’s the comfort being the soothe
The feeling of on the beach
It’s the shore meeting the Poet in reach
The ocean extending wisdom in teach
So this is the Poet’s Whole New World
This is what turns the heart into swirl
Journey on into the possibilities
A Poet is the one that creates realities

Exhibits no excuses
Negativity only confuses
Words and sentences come to us
Our commitment being what others don’t see

Write with how you feel
But just don’t let your emotions become a big deal
You are a Poet with lots of expressions
Because you are a Poet, your mind transcends with inspiration
A Poet is more than just words
A Poet is an artist who turns writing into a masterpiece
Your letters and words just give the right effective strike
Yet the key to being a Poet is commitment
A reader’s appreciation of poetry in being a compliment
A desire to be heard
Also not thinking your part of a writing herd
Positive thinking is what being a poet is all about
Your own creations having that shout
Be proud and honored that you have a gift to write
Because we are Poets, we know how to excite
Action into perfection
Ideas with a suggestion
Being a Poet is a creed
The Lord gave us this gift and wants us to proceed
There’s your Poet commandment
Remember you are guided by your own thoughts in instruction
In concluding, “A Poet’s mind is the reader being caught up in thought”.

Have your determination high
Put efforts to the test in try
When the going gets tough don’t cry
Don’t question yourself with your own why
Achievement requires being destine
Assurance in being confident
Illusions are not a final conclusion
Discouragement from individuals should make you stronger
It’s perseverance and endurance that helps you achieve longer
The vision is to see the light
Overcoming boundaries not making you uptight
A theory in sustaining plights
An upbeat flow that will certainly take flight
Let your inner positive thoughts be like a soaring bird
Let your voice illustrate inspiring words
Stand up being the test in having a reason to be heard
Words being a leader, but having a strategy
Involvement presenting plenty of activity
Illustrate sentences say look up
The key is not to get fed up
Thinking positive with a plan to be on the move
Concentrate with every bouncing step of a positive soothe
You have everything to prove

People labeled me what they thought
The image of me in what the world had me to be
It wasn’t a talk to find out
It was a play of my mind in being a bout
I was called a **** and ******
My voice was a very shy low
I was considered beyond average and my being below
I wasn’t what they thought
But how would I have convinced?
When the world has questions
What answer do you truly give?
I am beyond a verb and don’t consider myself an adjective
I began to challenge myself
This was strictly only for one self
The process didn’t require anybody else
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Why do I feel inadequate like a fall?
But the mirror advised to remain strong and stand tall
The world wants you to feel insufficient and stall
But you must be above all
A story from above, you were created being Heaven’s call
It was your inner heart in what I saw
Because of your given heart, I will encourage you in not to fall
Step out and hold you head up and act tall
Your life is destined for greatness
You are the man being the witness

A Poets castle
Where inspiration strides
Where composition derives
Thoughts and ideas
Emotions and fears
A closed door
Disturbances to ignore
Truth in the words
Moment of silence
Details without fail
Sentences ready to set sail
The Poets domain
Sometimes complain
Doing what a Poet does best
Write
Sometimes joking
Other times writer’s block
Some say, Poets have no game
But it depends on who is challenging
I have also heard that Poets are nuts
Poets eat nuts for protein
Keeping their mind open and lean
Poets trust their own spirit
Sustaining from everywhere
The quality is merit
A quiet place offers the right environment for a writing create
No time to waste
Meeting words and sentences head on face to face
Define write
Alone to think
Week after week
Day after day

A crime some say I commit
But Police want me to be the suspect in being it
Yet because I am young
I am just a number being among
As a Rapper I am looked upon
My Raps are positive messages to the youth
Don’t do crimes because of the anger you feel
A Jail cell is not theater, but the outcome is for real
Education is what gives you knowledge
Establishment is a privilege
Don’t rap because you think this is what you want to pursue
But you want a lifetime career
There are other occupations that will help you preserver
Entertainment and Rap is only short term
It’s true commitment in occupations in how you will earn
******* Rap is not a route you to take

There were five competitors:
COMPETITOR# 1  - Cake went flat like a tire

COMPETITOR# 2  - Cake couldn’t be cut, and the only words that came
                                       out of the Competitors mouth was “BUT”

COMPETITOR# 3     I am not sure if it is a Layer Cake or Pancake

COMPETITOR# 4     Shouldn’t be in the competition as cake had nasty
                                       all over it.

COMPETITOR# 5     Well done with their cake in bake. It was moist and
                                        Tasteful. Now that was a cuisine.

I am glad you are

I tried wearing those colonial shoes
My feet have the nerve to just refuse
In fact, the term was “Pain, Agony and Defeat”
I tell you not a happy feat or better known as Feet
The only shoes I would wear being a Town Crier is Flip Flops
Colonial shoes back than
However, who am I too say and wasn’t born until after when
Comfortable shoes are my favorite word
Now have you heard?
Apparently not as I think
I court you in that wink
Painful Agony feet wouldn’t be my best suit
No being a Town Crier for me as there wouldn’t be any pursuit
Now the Colonial Town people wouldn’t want to see a Town Crier Cry
I ask you to look me in the eye
The explanation would be hard to explain
This Town Crier would only complain
Everything else would just remain
Uncomfortable Colonial Shoes would definitely come to their end
Relief that would start from when
Imagine passing information to the Colonial Citizens
I would probably wine up in prison
Nothing in reason than shoes that hurt
Arguing Feet
A total give into being defeat
Those Colonial Shoes I just couldn’t keep
In my eyes it just a clean sweep
It would be a Town Crier try
As for the reason, all I can say is why?
I don’t know how Benjamin Franklin and other Colonial Pioneers wore those shoes
I would have to refuse
Those Colonial Pioneers must have had feet like stone
But I will leave that alone
But History is History
As for Arguing Colonial Shoes that is a total mystery
My opinion in a final thought, I should have known.

I was getting further and further away
I asked the Lord to help me on this day
My life needs salvation in every way
A voice said, “Now Come Home”
I knew than I wasn’t standing alone
Suddenly Joy and Praise came my way
A shout echoed, I will never go astray
The Devil blocks what he doesn’t want you to understand

The Lord opens to door to a blessed extension
It becomes a total Christian lesson
Truth in the Holy Spirit
Rejoice as it is embraced in merit
Time after time

I knew there is much to Christianity I needed to explore
I shouted Mercy and Glory
But that is only half of my story
My Biblical eye was on search
I was told to go to a place of foundational worship
My mind was open and soul fulfilled
For years I was always misled
The Holy Spirit came and I was fed
So my journey was long
But you are probably asking, “What took so long?”
Plain and simple, I didn’t think I belong
My destination reached precise
I am given daily God’s advice
Tomorrow seemed like yesterday
It was a gesture
It became a promise
The Lord took me in, and encouraged me in spreading God’s word out
Now you know the whole story in how God moved within my life
Salvation is a blessing
I have no more guessing
I extend salvation to you and all it takes is praying in the asking

Perfection in practice
Determination that was obvious
A movie called “RACE” surrounding Jesse Owens
Jessie Owens being a black man facing the outcome of race and sports challenge beyond one’s own God given talent
Opposition had doubts of what a champion would become
Others tried but wanted to know how they could get some
There was everything that Jesse Owens had to prove
Education at Ohio State
It was strong dedication, dignity and honor not like everybody else
Jesse Owens had to adapt and relate
He was while and during as a unknown
Yet Mr. Owens was going to let his abilities be shown
But if you don’t take a chance how will you advance?
A run for one’s life
No time for thinking, but encouragement being your own advice
Precision in running speed
Determination being the ability to proceed
A score having a definite sure
Mr. Owens having the understanding to go out and explore
Dignity and pride was not a class effort
It was a God given talent that only God can provide
Despite the odds
His recognition was how he made the audience applaud
Mr. Owens Gold Medals in what anyone at any race could achieve
The spotlight with a reason in what Mr. Owens did receive
I had the opportunity to meet Jesse Owens personally when I was teenager, and I was able to get his autograph, speak to him and shake the champion’s hand
The torch had been carried, and Mr. Owens achieved victory
The name of Jesse Owens being in the history books, and his accomplishments are among
Jesse Owens being the runner to the finish and a salute in becoming a champion with recognition in sportsmanship being well done.

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.

My years in my write
Inspiring words that would often excite
It was my inner spirit looking down on the shore
But it was Heaven who called who wanted me to explore
My acquired wisdom I did achieve
My worth of knowledge I want you to receive
God asked me to tell the story of my life
Dr. Angelou answered, “I really need to think twice”
God’s response, “You are in Heaven with plenty of glorified inspiring advice”
Now back track your life in a write
Then I will ask you to recite
Your words on earth brought soothing thoughts of galore
It was almost like the vision of waves hitting the shore
But with a mission to push on
Heaven wants me to write and this is where I belong
Remember my words and what they illustrate
Think on my theory in being involved in movement of participate
My words being powerful in every tense
But I leave you not to be in suspense
It was my persuasion in how I convinced
Now I will be writing in the spirit
My defined encouragement devoted to merit
Pretend you are writing sitting on the shore
Contrasting on a sunset that can’t be ignored
I have given you assurance
Now use my wisdom as your influence
I depart from you now
I know my previous teachings will continue to show you how
I will be gone for quite awhile
Remember me in my smile and my inspiration style.

A time in my life to live
I have worked hard all my life in give
No time for aches and pain
There is no reason that I should continue to complain
Adventure is waiting for me outside the door
It’s all about get out and explore
Because I am a Senior Citizen I will not be ignored
I have achieved wisdom and understanding
Because I am experienced I can withstand
Don’t even think about calling me old
I am a Senior Citizen who is bold
Don’t tell me to do as I am told
Young people recognize a Senior Citizen’s years
It’s our wisdom and understanding of encouragement in how you preserver
Who says because I am a Senior Citizen I don’t fit in
Our motto is step out and let inspiration begin
I may have gray hairs, can barely walk, Aches and pain and eye sight may not good
As a Senior Citizen we are determined moving in could
However, young people you need understanding in should
Obtain knowledge with thirst for education in would
Young people, your day will come
Old age will be your some
So let the truth be told
Young people listen up, as your youth will become old
Don’t take a Senior Citizen for being weak
Don’t take our speech for being beak
We have the knowledge that you seek.

Who says being a Senior Citizen makes us old?
Put on the brakes with a moment of hold
We have worked all our life
We should be retired and relax in stride
We earned our Social Security which is our expenses that Social Security provides
Senior Citizens do have rights
We are designated and don’t have to act polite
It is god that redeems our light
Washington, DC wants to take away in thinking we don’t need
Social Security and Pensions is how we proceed
We are not asking the House of Representative to do a good deed
We do have Medicare power
It is our provider regardless of the hour
All Washington, DC wants to do is be sour
Washington, DC has no plan of its own
The Senior Citizens just want to be left alone
The Multitude of Seniors voices that want to wake up the Capitol
It’s a battle worth communicating about
“Seniors in strength, and voice having an Old Age High”
We are the why and we are in Washington, DC’s face in the “I”
Don’t touch what you don’t understand
This is the Senior Citizen demand
Our fight has been going on throughout the land
So President Trump recognize us Senior Citizens
You are a Senior Citizen yourself
We will not allow you taking away
It is not ok
No you cannot have your own way
We Senior Citizens have the experience and endurance
Our voices conclude being our assurance.

Darkness casting as an image
Face unknown
Features unknown
Captivation relishing on fear
Who is this shadow near?
Wonder of the minds in wanting to analyst
But frightened in what could be a surprise
It could very well be a prospect of someone to die
But whose life?
However, the shadow is all around
Surrounded within the darkness
Light can’t pierce
The shadow is a force to deal with
How does one do battle?
One must be caution and idle
The shadow appears but doesn’t vanish
The darkness makes the shadow mysterious
Nothing distinguished
The shadow walks among
No wonder to look upon
A moment could be any second
All minds are on reckon
The shadow doesn’t speak only creeps
Are you the next victim?
Screams won’t help
Worrying won’t solve
Don’t even bother to sob
The shadow is already in your mist
Only time will tell
The shadow is all in you
Fate is in the shadow’s hands
Your tomorrow could end today
Your soul could move array
The shadow
The need for darkness
You being the witness

Dust to Dust
Familiar sayings at a burial
Uplifted Souls
Heavens behold
Treasured God’s threshold
Yonder mounts
Everlasting that counts
Sadness left behind
A Lord who is kind and brings comfort

One who is always honest
One’s time
A second being a minute
Schedule always on time
Commitment on Earth
The Soul a rebirth
Ashes from Faith
Dust from the beginning
Ashes to ashes, Dust to Dust

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.

The S.S. Voyager being a Merchant Ship
But as you keep reading the story you will find there was also a dip
As the Storm started to brew
The sea waves began to raw
It was high waves in what the Captain and crew saw
The Mighty winds began to blow at a steady pace
It was a wonder if the S.S. Voyager would be another ship erased
But it wasn’t just the wind and the Seas
It was the loudness of the Thunder, Flashing of Lightening and torrential rains that poured
But the entire element being controlled by the Mighty Lord
The S.S. Voyager fought the Mighty waves like a Rollercoaster in leaps and turns
The ship would often dip from side to side
But it seemed like the waves were telling the ship you will reside
Yet the Cargo managed to hold steady
The Ship maneuvered up and down with a hard front splash down
The splash of the ship the crew heard being the sound
But Captain Newsome was determined in getting the ship through uncertain waters
But the crew wasn’t exactly comfortable in their quarters
It was despite the uncontrollable breeze
It was hard for the crew to remain at ease
Captain Newsome steered the ship in hope that the ship doesn’t sink but remain a float
Captain Newsome was a men fierce being no joke
It was as if Captain Newsome got his wish
The Storm seemed to suddenly disappear
The clouds started to fade away
The moon became visible and not astray
The night sky had all the stars
The S.S. Voyager continued on its destination far
It seemed the ship wasn’t going to make it, but the ship pulled through, but to the Captain, it was all nothing new.

Everything is not always in history books
Visual artifacts adding to the history look
Reflecting back
Dates and Description giving facts
The past circulating into tomorrow
Sorrows and struggles
The outcome of morrow
A concept being theory
The end of the uncertain mystery
History holding strong on words
Echoes of being heard
Utterance with tolerance
Challenge mustering endurance
The confirmed assurance
The aftermath of influence.

Step out
Walk on
Imagine distance
Courage in an instance
Circumstance through situation
Determination with participation
Sole together
Strong and sturdy in all leather
Shoes tell your story
Accomplishment with all its glory
The miles you left behind
Life that was kind
The times you tried to run
Those times weren’t all fun
That makes your soles different
The creation of significance
Identity of how you and soles weathered many storms
A when from then
Tomorrow turned into current
Soles on duty
Adventure through triumphant
Victory through honor
Soles on
Leather held up
Shoe in

I think on the strives our Black Ancestors made
It was a struggle to get done
Yet maneuvering and proving made their name among
Names that come to mind such as George Washington Carver, Medgar Wiley Evers, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jesse Owens, Joe Black, Jackie Robinson and the list goes on and on
So what makes their specific Black Achievers great?
It was their focus on achievement and continuing no matter what
It was their understanding
Their purpose being their own contribution
So have names on educational institutions for example, MEDGAR EVERS, CUNY MEDGAR EVERS COLLEGE
I am proud to say, I am the product of CUNY Medgar Evers College embracing in the Medgar Evers Legacy
I was honored too be taught at CUNY Medgar Evers College by Dr. Betty Shabazz, Widow of MALCOLM X
I was inspired in her teachings and values
So Black History had and continues to be an impact on me
“To be a success, you must be taught in wisdom associating from the best”
That is my honest and true confess
But these say what is really in my heart
“Struggles are only preparations being what is expected in life. It comes with understanding in what knowledge provides. It comes with true meaning in believing, but with observation in listening”.
I wonder
Looking yonder
I observe
Skies wonders and beauty
The creation, “How Great thou are”
Man could never construct like that
No fact
Pure Truth
As I walk, I learn
Straight into knowledge
As I live, “Live and embrace”
Mystery solved
Life participation involved
Life not by accident
A purpose and desire
The walk alone
Capability being shown
The thought of struggles going through
A certain guidance beyond man’s instinct
A more spiritual approach
Walking into tomorrow without worry
No need to be sorry
Walking in assurance
Uplift influence

My sunrise is morning to be whipped
It’s the hot sun in cotton picking on the plantation
The Master forces you to give him information
My thought of Freedom being a proclamation
I can’t even express my own explanation
I pray oh Lord
I am your faithful following in accord
Oh those beaten days
The long seemingly days
The Master continues to beckons
I pray to the Lord that he changes his ways
Being a slave certainly can’t stay
Beaten paths
Escape to where and how?
One day just one day
Freedom will reign
I may not be alive to see
But my Soul will know in everything Freedom should be
A Slave’s eyes see distance beyond any mortal’s demise, but wisdom and understanding keeps our focus in remaining wise.

Lord descend on us your blessings of Freedom
You have given us wisdom
Yet we have been beaten and torn throughout
Our scars from streaks of whipping thorns
Lord we Slaves pray to the Heavens that we will once be free
This plantation of turmoil makes us want to flee
However, your spirit is wise and strong
Our Faith in believing is where we belong
No matter how long
We have spiritual songs to help us get along
Slavery is totally wrong
It’s those struggles that come along
We Slaves shall rise
The Plantation Owners are in for a surprise
We Slaves are fully energized
But this situation will be puzzled faces with a realize
It’s God’s Heaven I must emphasize
We will see our new sunrise
We Slaves will never have to apologize
Our hope is in the Heavens
Tomorrow will be a wonder
Our Freedom will find us yonder

It was stormy that night
The waves moved abruptly being uptight
There was a very small ship way out to sea
There were echoes in the distance of streaking pleas
In the horizon there was the Sky Bright Lighthouse beaming with its guiding light
But the light was not enough as the storm continued to be tough
The small ship went side to side
It moved in precision along with the waving tides
The ship started to tip
Then suddenly it made a dip
Some of the crew and passengers were pushed into the sea
The Coast Guard was alerted
They tried to rescue the crew and passengers, but some had already drowned
Their bodies just floated down
Lightening continue to flash and thunder roared
However, the heavy rain continued to pour
This was a night God didn’t want anyone to ignore
The message that one could visualize in one’s head, “I am God in control as I am the wonder in behold. Its souls from the flesh and Heaven giving Earth a time limit in how much living people on Earth have left”
Later the storm started to let up
The darkened night clouds departed fast
The vision of the moon finally at last
The stars twinkled of a storm pass.

The sun has risen
Tomorrow being the new day
You are yet fighting for justice and freedom
But it’s your dignity and honor that prevails
I see numerous naval ships on the set sail
The mission we can’t fail
There’s a job that needs to be done
We are not finished until we have won
The Fallen Soldiers have finished their battle tour, but they too can’t be forgotten
The American Flag stands high and proud
It’s the moment to reflect in being allowed
Conquer we will and victory we shall
It won’t be until
Salute being continuous
It’s not something contagious
I hear military voices in the background
The enemy is near
But as Soldiers we cannot show fear
God has given us a personal creed
“Be a strong soldier in order to proceed”
Yet the battle drums beat long
Onto the battle with a mission where we belong
Music plays in the distance and echoing out
Inspirational singing is what I am talking about
Endless struggles seemingly beyond repair
But don’t get weary and full of despair
A Soldiers walk is God overseeing in that captivation talk.
