DON'T HOLD DOWN YOUR HEAD
Don't hold down your head, it should be lifted at an even level.  To walk with great confidence, should always be your endeavor.
Don't hold down your head, we are not in the days of old.  We can look anyone in the face, as you are politely bold.
Don't hold down your head, and walk with dignity.  Remember, you are no longer bound, but you are born to be free.
Don't hold down your head, but observe the beautiful birds.  Enjoy the peace and tranquility, to soothe and calm your nerves.
Don't hold down your head, notice people for miles.  This will give you a chance, to share your lovely smile.

Welcome To A Better Life
Welcome to a better life, and not one of defeat.  Away with the disappointments of your past, and embrace something unique.
Welcome to a better life, one in which you can change.  If you want to be a better person, I'm sure this can be arrange.
Welcome to a better life, where you can have success.  You're bound to soar high like an Eagle, when you constantly do your best.
Welcome to a better life, dismiss the things and words, that you know are not true.  It's only the truth in life, that will safely carry you through.
Welcome to a better life, and not one that will depress.  But a life that you can feel, and not afraid to get properly dressed.
Welcome to a better life, where you will be able to smile.  This will give you encouragement, to assist in going the extra mile.

After you have done all you could do, you are still made to feel bad.  You have given it your all, still you're made to feel sad.
If you can, try to ignore  those who think they are bad, yet, not realizing there is someone bad, far surpass them.  Yes, I'm talking about God, I'm talking about Him!
The person who thinks they are bad, will meet their match.  Once that day arrive, they will know exactly what it is like.
Don't worry about the bad, and meditate on the good.  God has your back, keep doing what you should.
After you choose a peaceful life, there are those who don't understand.  They seem to cause you so much pain, and make things hard if they can.
After you are made to feel bad, remember, never to turn back.  You must keep moving on, to prevent from suffering lack.
After you are moving, help those going through the same.  Give them encouragement, politely share your name.
After they are lifted up, let them know this is part of life.  There are days you'll be made to feel bad, even though it's not right.

Did God Give Me To You
Did God give me to you, to go up side my head?  Or, perhaps His plan was bigger.  Why not love me instead?
Did God give me to you, so you could  think you know it all?  Or, was His plan for you, to speak softly, and not to make me feel small?
Did god give me to you, to embarrass me in front of a crowd?  Or, was His plan for you, were to be kind to me and not wild?
Did God give me to you, to cause my heart to pain?  Or, was His plan for you, to keep me comfortable, and sane.
When God gave me to you, we were to be as one.  Not to bring up ones past, of all the things that were done.

Sun, I'm Waiting On You
The clouds have been around, for quit some time.  Some people are evil, as though  they are losing their minds.
There are so many mood swings, people are acting so mean.  I look out the window, but the sun cannot be seen.
Do you think if I wear light clothing, especially very bright, they will stop fighting, and then things will be alright?
You know I think I'll go pray, to find some type of relief.  One thing I have to cling to, and that's my belief.
I believe I have the answer; there is something I can do.  Let me spread a little sunshine, so others can make it through.

Escape
When people speak to you, I wonder if they can tone their voices down?  Some speak so loud, it can only make you frown.
There should be  time out, from loud voices all around.  These loud voices
is something that need to be bound.
Do these loud voices think you are without ears?  These voices are so loud, they cause eyes to form tears.
There should be a quiet place, so you can quickly escape.  No need to put it off, but make this a date.
There is nothing, like a quiet place of peace.  You finally get a chance to escape from loud voices, may they suddenly cease.
Loud voices can be damaging, to your precious nerves.  There are some voices, I do not care to be heard.

A WAY OUT OF NO WAY
The Lord is good, at making a way, when there is no way.  This can be done, as you rise from day to day.
Just as the children of Israel had their backs to the walls.  Their only way out, they had to cry out to the Lord.
When Daniel found himself, in the lion's den, he slept upon the lions, with nothing but peace within.
Abraham was willing, to sacrifice his only son.  A ram was set aside instead, to be the one.
The Hebrew boys were cast in the fire.  The King saw a fourth man, and he was no liar.
When you go through life, not knowing what to do or say:  Just pray to the Father, and watch Him make a way.

Enough Is Enough
Enough is enough, to go through suffering and pain.  To put up with people's foolishness, tell me what does it gain?
Enough is enough, to put up with the shootings out in the streets.  Young people lining up, waiting to be beat.
Enough is enough, children hungry without food.  Some are so poor, they are in need of shoes.
Enough is enough, nothing is never new,  People doing the same old things, not knowing what to do.
Enough is enough, somebody need to take a stand.  They need to reach out, and be willing to do what they can.

I Heard
I heard that you'll be the one, to make it ahead in life.  All because you have chosen, to do the things that's right.
I heard that you have a compassionate heart.  You have considered the feelings of others, from the very first start.
I heard that you put yourself, into all that you do.  Whatever you begin, you make sure it's carried through.
I heard that you are going to lead, those who are constantly down.  You are going to reach out your hands, to help lift people off the ground.
I heard that you are careful, in the words you say.  You are determined, to prevent people from going astray.
I heard you are going to excel.  Above all we pray, that you don't give up and fail.

WHAT'S THE RUSH
WHY ARE YOU IN A RUSH, TO RUN INTO THAT POLE?  TO SEE OUR YOUTH TAKE AWAY THEIR LIVES IS GETTING PRETTY OLD.
WHY ARE YOU IN A RUSH, TO HAVE A HEAD ON COLLISION?  YOUR FUTURE CAN LOOK BRIGHT, JUST HOLD ON TO YOUR VISION.
WHY ARE YOU IN A RUSH, TO SEPARATE YOURSELF FROM  THE LIGHT?  DEPART FROM ALL DARKNESS, AND BE DETERMINED TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT.
WHY ARE YOU IN A RUSH, TO BEGAN TO TURN AROUND?  YOU WERE HEADING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, WHAT HAS GOTTEN YOU DOWN?
WHY ARE YOU IN A RUSH, TO MAKE THIS WORLD NEW?  THIS IS A WISE DECISION, MAY OTHERS JOIN YOU.

Begin To Help People
Begin to help people, and listen to what they have to say.  They may be having problems; things may be in their way.
Begin to help people; they may be having a rough time.  They may be so burden down, and can't think how to use their mind.
Begin to help people; resist turning your back.  So many are troubled, trying their best not to crack.
Begin to help people; many are starving from food.   Once they see that you care, they may not know what to choose.
Begin to help people; this is ordained from the Father above.  He sent his son as an example, to show us how to love.

THE GOD WHO HEALS
I serve a God who can heal.  When you are sick, this is the time, for His power to be revealed.
I serve a God who can heal you of any Cancer.  No need to stand by in fear, because Jesus is the answer.
I serve a God who has already experienced your every pain.  His hanging on the Cross, wasn't a lost, nor was it in vain.
I serve a God who will make up your sick bed.  He doesn't want you sick, His Word means what it said.
I serve a God who is interested in your peace.  He's going to keep working, without ever letting it cease.
I serve a God who desires to see you healthy.  It's worth more than anything, even than being wealthy.

Hope
If it wasn't for hope, where would we be?  Maybe, somewhere all alone, bound up, not able to be free.
If it wasn't for hope, would we be around?  Or, would we be somewhere depressed, feeling constantly down.
If it wasn't for hope, there would be no need to go on.  Somehow, you have been given strength, so all fears are gone.
If it wasn't for hope, the light would be dim.  Thank God He is around, so we can depend on Him.
If it wasn't for hope, there would be no need to move ahead.  You may have ended up, constantly climbing into your bed.
Now that you have hope, you can live a beautiful life..  You no longer have to hide, trying to keep out of sight.
Now that you have hope, you can allow joy to enter in.  You are no longer in *******, because you have peace within.
Now that you have hope, you can show your smile.  You can encourage others, to go the extra mile.
Now that you have hope, you can move ahead.  Now, you can follow good examples, as you are safely lead.

Why Are You Sitting
Why are you sitting, it's time to stand up?  You need to help those, who's drinking from life's bitter cup.
Why are you sitting, stand up so you can be heard?  There are those who do not have a voice, from the spoken word.
Why are you sitting, you need to run fast?  There are so much left behind, help lift this heavy task.
Why are you sitting, there is so much to be done?  We need to work today, and tomorrow you may have fun.
Why are you sitting, are you able to use your brain?  Then you can encourage those, who's about to go insane.
Why are you sitting, do you know how to sow seeds?  Perhaps, you can get a book, and teach some child to read.

RUNNING OUT OF TIME
Time is running out, of important things, you promised to do.  Time will not stand still, just to wait on you.
Time is running out, just like an hour glass.  Even before you know it, time has quickly past.
Time is running out, you must accomplish that one particular goal.  You may not have mentioned it, or one you never told.
Time is running out, excel with all your heart.  Since you have little time left, you better get a head start.
Time is running out, make sure your heart is clean.  This is not the time, to began to act mean.
Time is running out, make sure your life is in order.  When you reach that peaceful place, don't be stuck out on the boarder.

YOU DID IT, WHEN THINGS HAD GOTTEN OUT OF HAND!  EVERYTHING IS PUT TOGETHER AGAIN, AND YOU ARE ABLE TO STAND.

NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH; YOU ARE NOT ALONE.  REMEMBER, GOD IS ON YOUR SIDE, ESPECIALLY, IN YOUR HOME.
NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH; BELIEVE YOU WILL GET WELL.  YOU WILL HAVE A TESTIMONY; ONE YOU ARE WILLING TO TELL.
NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH; YOU DON'T HAVE TO ASK GOD TWICE.  ALL BECAUSE HE'S MERCIFUL, AND HE IS FAR PAST NICE.
NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH, IT WANT LAST FOREVER.  TO MAKE AN IMPRESSION ON EVERYONE, SHOULD BE YOUR FIRST ENDEAVOR.
NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH; YOU WILL COME OUT ON TIME.  THERE ARE ONE WHO CARE ABOUT YOU, AND YOU ARE ON GOD'S MIND.

One Follower Missing
What happened to one of my followers, here on Hello Poetry web-site?  Is all of my poems accurately recorded, there is something that's not right.  I try to get a  message out to you, but I have no way to get a message through.
When I hit the message button, but nothing allows me to go connect.  This would cause anyone to get upset.
If there is a follower who have decided to back out, please let me know why, so there will be no doubt.  
As of August 21,2014 around four more of my followers are missing since I wrote this poem.  I hate to see them missing, it makes my heart torn.

NOT SURE OF YOURSELF
WHEN YOU ARE NOT SURE OF YOURSELF, YOU GO AROUND LOOKING SAD.  YOU HAVE A WAY  OF MAKING PEOPLE UNHAPPY, CAUSING THEM TO FEEL BAD.
WHEN YOU ARE NOT SURE OF YOURSELF, YOU HAVE A TENDENCY TO ACT MEAN.  WHEN LOOKING IN YOUR EYES, THEY NO LONGER GLEAM.
WHEN YOU ARE NOT SURE OF YOURSELF, YOU HAVE A HABIT OF PUTTING PEOPLE DOWN.  BECAUSE OF YOUR ATTITUDE, PEOPLE ARE NOT AROUND.
WHEN YOU ARE NOT SURE OF YOURSELF, YOU BEGAN TO ACT LIKE A CHILD.  YOU FAIL TO ACT YOUR AGE, AT TIMES YOU BEGAN TO ACT WILD.
WHEN YOU ARE NOT SURE OF YOURSELF, YOU ARE UNABLE TO THINK CLEAR.  THOSE WHO SEEM TO LOVE YOU THE MOST, THEY ARE NO LONGER DEAR.

I Can Make It Now
When I was a child, you gently held my hands.  I was taught to respect people, even those of other lands.
When I became a teenager, even though I was not wild;  you put up with me, not treating me like a child.
Now that I am grown, I'm willing to go the extra mile.
I have great confidence; I can make it now.  I have made it to College, so I can get a good job.
I depend on One, who is the Almighty God.  With all of his help, to Him I humbly bow.  I have great confidence; I can make it now.

Comforted
As I rest upon God's shoulders, all my cares are gone.  When I put my trust in Him,  I have no fear of the unknown.
In His arms I find much peace, I'm comforted on every side.  I no longer have to escape, to find a place to hide.
While resting gently upon God's chest, I notice a special heart beat.  He leans over to whisper," My child please do not weep."
I feel I can make it now, to go on to conquer fear.  I have found someone who gives me strength, and I know He loves me dear.

TAKE YOUR TIME
Take your time, why are you in a hurry?  Just to see you fly by, causes me to worry.
Take your time, why run through the red light?  There is no need to break the law; you have to do what's right.
Take your time, your house is not on fire.  To see you make it safely home is my first desire.
Take your time, why are you running fast?  There is no shame, if you came in last.
Take your time, you race to be ahead.  Perhaps, you should slow down, before you end up dead.

It's A Girl!
I now have my first Grand Child, and it's a girl!  This child is worth more to me, than any priceless pearl.
I now have my first Grand Child, and she's a part of me.  This is one great mystery, I have longed to see.
I now have my first Grand Child, may I never make her a god.  I do not want to be punished, if God chose to use his rod.
I now have my first Grand Child, may I teach her the ways of the Lord.  May we always be in agreement, and remain in one accord.
I now have my first Grand Child, may she learn how to pray.  This will make her a strong woman of God, in the future some day.

Words Do Hurt
If someone is standing by, calling you out of your name; you are going to be hurt; you will not be the same.
If someone printed a nasty note, saying something that's wrong, this will only hurt you, while you are trying to be strong.
If someone posted negative words about you, on the internet; you know you are going to be hurt; you are going to be upset.
If someone told a lie about you, and the words were spread around; you are going  to feel hurt, as well as feeling down.
Many young people are dead in their graves, because of words that hurt.  Make sure in life you speak positive words, it's a guarantee they'll work.

HAVE YOU EVER LOOKED ON THE INSIDE, TO SEARCH FOR VALUABLE TREASURE?  THE TYPE WHICH CAN BE EXTRACTED, FAR BEYOND ANY MEASURE.

Are you full of life, or one who's constantly down?  When people see you, would they rather not see you around?
Are you full of life, or do your face look very sad?  When people come near you, do you make them glad?
Are you full of life, or are you always upset?  Do people gamble that you will not be happy, therefore, they place their bet?
Are you full of life, or do you have ashes over your head?  Instead of wearing a smile, you choose to walk around, looking like you're dead?
Are you full of life, even in the way you dress?  Do you wear beautiful colors, so you can be relieved of stress?
Are you full of life, or would you like to be?  Speak with someone you can trust, so you can be finally free.

If you wasn't around, would people feel totally free?  Would they be loosed from such heavy burden, even the whole world could see?
If you wasn't around, could you trust your staff?  Or, whenever you returned, you would have to use your wrath?

Where can people see Jesus, could He be inside of you, when you are feeding the homeless man?  Could He be inside of you, as you encourage people to give to the poor all over our land?

If you are a Father, before your children, live a life that's clean.  Do not beat up on your wife, and expect them not to be mean.

If you are a Father, take pride in what you wear.  The children are constantly watching you, even in the way you wear your hair.
If you are a Father, be kind in using your words.  When you are not expecting, your voice is being heard.
If you are a Father, refrain from going to jail.  Too many Fathers are locked  up, feeling that they have failed.
If you are a Father, take your children where they can learn about the Lord.  This will keep your family together, all in one accord.

If you think I can somehow become promoted, in writing my poetry, as well as being advanced; please come out from behind the scenes, and give me a fighting chance.
I put my hear,t into all the work I do.  I refuse to play around, and confess that "I'm Through!"
I wish to be discovered by humble people, and not people who's out for greed.  I desire you to do your part, and take this project and lead.
Will you help me, to help people, and the youth of our up coming generation?  I want them to find peace, in reading my poems, and find some type of consolation.

I can find no words for the families of Flight 370.  Someday, I hope they will find their loved ones, in the arms of God, resting in a place that is so heavenly.  
I can find no words for grief,  I never experienced what they are going through, yet, I know they want relief.
How do you console men and women who are in pain, and minds that are not clear?
They are loaded down with heavy burdens, because their loved ones are no longer here.
I have shared my condolence with  many people in my past.  To comfort the lost families, my body may not last.
I rather see them cling to hope, this will give them something to hold to.  If I was in their situation, I don't know what I'll do.
My Eldest son from time to time, get to travel throughout other foreign lands.  If his plane disappeared out of sight, I'll have to quickly put him into God's hand.

Writing About People
I love to write about people, because I watch them everyday.  People are such unique creatures, and I mean this in every way.
Some people are happy, always with a smile.  Some seem to enjoy you, making your life worthwhile.
Some people look so sad, you don't know exactly what to say.  If you only knew what to do, you just may make their day.
Some people are so mean, so you go down another road.  All you can do is pray, that God will make them whole.
Some people are so rich, they look down on the poor.  If a poor man knocked on their door, they would have a heart attack, right in the middle of the floor! Ouch!  (He Hit the Floor)!

Have you set down to watch these games, with the blood that is shed?  No wonder children have nightmares, with all of that junk in their head.
What's up with the ****** games we allow our children to play?  We will be held accountable to our children, in what they watch and say.
This is not what God meant when he said, " Train up a child in the way he should go."  You will know how your children will turn out, by the things you allow and  show.
Now that you have children, it's no longer about you.  You have to be careful in raising them, so God can bring them safely through.

WHEN YOU ARE DOWN
Why do men see you down, but refuse to lift you up?  Instead of pulling you out of a hole, they rather see you stuck.
Why do men see you down, and seek to hold you there?  They have the resource to pull you up, but refuses, because they just don't care.
Why do men see you down, knowing that you are not well?  If they have provided any good, should you be able to tell?
Why do men see you down, they usurp authority in their position.  They try their best to get rid of you; while you are in your sick condition.
Why do men see you down, and refuse to have your back?  Knowing that you are totally unable, it would be nice if they took up the slack.
There will come a day; you may walk in my shoes.  I pray to God you will be able to take it, especially, when people act rude.

F is for our Freedom that we enjoy from day to day.  Soldiers sacrificed their lives, so we can have a safe place to stay.
R is for Remembering soldiers we can never forget.  So many have brought strength to us, from the day we met.
E is for Emptiness, because our soldiers are no longer around.  Their bodies had to be laid to rest, as they were placed in the ground.
E is for Encouragement I believe the soldiers want you to have.  It was a much needed sacrifice to die, all because they cared.
D is for Destiny who knows where today's soldiers could land?  They will continue to hold the Flag up high, and always allow it to stand.
O is for Opportunity, just to be able to fight.  As a since of loyalty, in their hearts, they know this is right.
M is for Memories the ones we will never forget.  Hold on to the precious ones, and resist those which will get you upset.

Why Do You Care
Why do you care, about those who might be hurt?  Why do you step in, from those who caused such dirt?
Why do you give help, to those without a home?  Why do you consider, those who are alone?
Why do you sow a much needed seed?  You go out of your way, to find books, to teach all types of people to read.
Why do you volunteer to sing, to the people in the " Old Folks Home?"  Even though your voice, may seem  out of tone?
Why do you take a chance, to keep young children off the street?  All because of this, their parents do not have to weep.
Thank You For Caring!

SOMEONE IS LISTENING
When you feel so alone, thinking no one care.  At the right appointed time, God will send someone there.
When you feel so alone, thinking you're going to starve.  Someone is listening, there is no need to sob.
When you feel so alone, without .1 to your name, God will send you money, your Account want be the same.
When you feel so alone, wondering how you will make it, God will send help on the way, relax, and don't have a fit.
When you feel so alone, thinking you want be heard, just be calm, and meditate, on God's Powerful Word.
Someone is listening, He has never stopped.  He will not stand idly by, to give you a chance to drop.

How can this world get better, when people are at war with one another?  People fail to realize, we are all sisters and brothers.
How can this world get better, when people fail to take a stand.  They refuse to look one another in the eye, don't let me mention about shaking a hand.
How can this world get better, when people fail to take care of each other's needs.  So many refuse to go about, doing a good deed.
How can this world get better, when there is no peace.  People are constantly engaging in battle, they refuse to let it cease.  
How can this world get better, does anyone have a plan?  Perhaps, everyone  should give input, so we can have a healed land.

MADE TO FEEL BAD
After you have done all you could do, you are still made to feel bad.  You have given it your all, still you are made to feel sad.
After you choose a peaceful life, there are those who don't understand.  They seem to cause you so much pain, and make things hard if they can.
After you are made to feel bad, remember, never to turn back.  You must keep moving on, to prevent from suffering lack.
After you are moving, help those going through the same.  Give them encouragement, politely share your name.
After they are lifted up, let them know this is part of life.  There are days you are going to be made to feel bad, even though it's not right.

IT'S IN THE SENSES
When I look into your face, I'll tell you what I see.  I notice the beauty of your eyes, looking back at me.
You carry a sweet aroma, I hope everyone can tell.  Even from a distance, I notice that beautiful smell.
Your ears are so sensitive, to lovely noises from afar.  It makes you want to put it on a disk, to play all day in your car.
From your precious taste buds, you choose the right types of food.  Nothing is about to be left, I promise it will be used.
People are so encouraged, when you touch their hand.  They no longer want to give up, they are willing to stand.

The Lives We Touch
There are so many lives we have touched, as we crossed each other's path.  It was only for precious friendships, and not for what we hath.
There are so many lives we have touched, and friends we will never forget.  It may be years, before friends are seen, while searching for others. don't give up yet.
There are so many lives we have touched, they are friends held within our hearts.  Once these friends are found, you hope they will never depart.
There are so many lives we have touched, don't ever take their friendship in vain.  It is friends that really cares, that help keep us alive and sane.

You Just Don't Know
You just don't know, what the future will bring, but I know who do.  God will take you gently by the hand, to assure you'll make it through.
You just don't know; people will be placed in your life.  They will be sent to you, to keep you on the road called "Right".
You just don't know, about those who are put in your path.  They are there to assist you, no matter what you hath.
You just don't know, about the rewards you will gain.  Everyone will have faith in you, and proudly delight in your name.
You just don't know!

I AM ABOUT TO LEAVE
I AM ABOUT TO LEAVE, NO LONGER TO STAY ON EARTH.  I HAVE COME THROUGH SO MUCH, EVERY SINCE THE FIRST DAY OF MY BIRTH.
I AM ABOUT TO LEAVE, TO GO TO A BETTER PLACE.  MY TIME IS JUST ABOUT UP, TO RUN THIS HUMAN  RACE.
I AM ABOUT TO LEAVE, AND HEAVEN WILL BE MY HOME.  I'M GOING TO A PLACE, WHERE I WILL NEVER BE ALONE.
IT'S SO IMPORTANT, TO TREAT PEOPLE WITH CARE.  TODAY THEY MAY BE WITH YOU, AND TOMORROW THEY WILL BE OVER THERE.
I HAVE ENJOYED MY LIFE, WHILE LIVING DOWN HERE.  GOD HAS HAD MY BACK, TO ME I LOVE HIM DEAR.
