When I shop for fruits and vegetables, tell me what can I buy?  They announce they are loaded with bacteria, "If you eat them, you just may die."
When I go to the Meat Department, I'm looking for different kinds of meats.  Then I remember I heard on the News, to be careful, there are some you don't need to eat.
When I walk down the aisles, I look for something to drink.  Some of them have been tampered with, to choose, I just cannot think.
With all the pollutants, and contamination we contributed, in destroying our land; we need to join in together to work, and be willing to lend a hand.

When we turn on the TV, we see creatures from outer-space.  Yet, we wonder why children have nightmares, pulling blankets over their face.
When we turn on the TV; we see people fussing and fighting.  Yet, we expect children to do their best in school, after biting their nails, before writing.
When we turn on the TV; someone is pointing a gun.  Yet, we look for a peaceful neighborhood, while fugitives are on the run.
When we turn on the TV; profanity is constantly used.  Yet, we expect our children to speak good English, and not a word that's rude.

So you're excited about getting married, what did God say?  Have you included Him in your plans, or did you even pray?
So you're excited about getting married, what did God say?  Don't take matters into your hands; please don't keep Him away.
So you're excited about getting married, what did God say?  Did you get His permission, or did you say, "I'm getting married anyway?"
In the days of old, men sought God, as to what to do.  Failing to seek Him for answers, your marriage may not make it through.
What did God say?

When people  pass by you, tell me what do they see?  Are they seeing someone confident, in all they can be?
When people pass by you, are they suddenly afraid?  Have you made yourself presentable, from your toes up to your head?
When people pass by you, will you give them a smile?  Or, carrying a bad attitude, you choose to make this your style?
When people pass by you, do they think you are ready to fight?  Why do you carry on this image, morning, noon and night?
People are constantly  watching you, what signals are you sending?  You may say I'm sending my best, this is only depending.

I see the sky with its sun, moon and stars.  Yet, I see birds flying, suffering with so many scars.  
I see tall trees, blowing from the wind that's in the air.  I see mankind knocking them down, as if they do not care.
I see large ships, in waters that are clean.  Suddenly, I hear about an oil spill, endangering the animals seen.
I see the homeless, on the streets, so all alone.  I see people passing them quickly by, as if they are in a zone.
I see we have a chance to make a difference throughout our land.  Only a few are willing, to finally take a stand.

What if you were never born, and no where around?  Would you still act the way you do, knocking people to the ground?
What if you were never born, would you constantly steal?  Would you even consider that life is really real?
What if you were never born, would you keep beating up everyone?  Or would you learn to treat people kind, and remove that burden weighing a tone?
What if you were never born, would you keep blurting out foul words?  Or, would you speak words of encouragement, so loud that they can be heard?
What if you were never born, would you stay in your gang?  Or, would you go around administering peace, to keep people's minds sane?
What if you were never born, would you still talk back, to the people you love?  Or, would you find it in your heart to apologize, after praying to God above?
What if God decided, not to send you down, to his wonderful Earth?  All because he saw in the future, you would produce a lot of dirt?
But he chose rather, to give you a precious chance.  He knew you would be the one, to teach everyone how to live, and successfully advance.

Is Christmas a day, to lead someone astray?  Could it be a day, to bow your head and pray?
Is Christmas a day, to spend time being selfish?  Could it be a day, in fulling a person's wish?
Is Christmas a day, to to sit relaxed in your home?  Could it be a day, to find someone all alone?
Is Christmas a day, to sit idly by?  Could it be a day, to forgive those who made you cry?
Is Christmas a day, to show off all your gifts?  Could it be a day, to give someone a lift?
Christmas is not all about you. It's about helping others, to see to their happiness too!

"Please open the window; No! I think it should remain closed." " I feel a lot of chills, from my head down to my toes."
"Please give me some ice; I am very hot!" " I feel something in my belly; there's one thing I know it's not!"
"Please pass me my "Big Shoes," my feet is beginning to swell. " I know I want to go to Heaven; Lord, please don't let me go to Hell!"
"Please forgive me, if I am acting mean." " I think I'll stay in today, to avoid making a scene."
"I AM MENOPAUSE!"

Why go on T.V. to collect money from a Talk Show?  Have you seen how embarrassing they are, why do they stoop so low.
Do you realize that our children are constantly watching, all the things they see?  What impression will you  make on them; which words will you encourage them to be?
Our children are observing grown women and men fussing and fighting.  They need to search out information, how to help children in their writing.
What knowledge do you gain from shows like this, they need to teach our children how to read?  Someone need to take a stand and began to lead.
By, Sandra Juanita Nailing
What's happening to our youth, who always choose to talk back?  There are those who constantly horseplay around, giving each other a whack.
What's happening to our youth, who do not take things serious?  All they want to do is stand around, and began to fuss.
What's happening to our youth, who are eager to start a fight?  They fail to listen to adults, knowing what they are doing, definitely are not right.
What's happening to our youth, who are filled with so much anger?  If they decided to take it to the streets, their life could be in real danger.
What's happening to our youth, I believe they need a spiritual outlet?  Take them to the House of God, so their souls can get rest.

WHAT'S IN A BLEEDING HEART, FLOWING OUT TO THE WORLD?  NOT ONLY TO MEN AND WOMEN, BUT EVERY BOY AND GIRL.
WHAT'S IN A BLEEDING HEART, MAKE SURE THAT YOU POSSES LOVE?  THIS CAN ONLY BE OBTAINED, BY JESUS PRECIOUS BLOOD.
WHAT'S IN A BLEEDING HEART, MAKE SURE IT'S ALWAYS CLEAN?  YOUR HEART WILL NOT LAST LONG, IF YOU ARE CRUEL AND MEAN.
WHAT'S IN A BLEEDING HEART, MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T HATE?  TO CONTINUE TO CARRY IT AROUND, JUST MAY BE TOO LATE.

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.

What's up with the foul language, that flows from your lips?  I am out to truly learn; can you suggest some good tips?
What's up with the words that does not sound healthy?  I'm out to gain knowledge, and even become wealthy.
What's up with the lyrics that's bringing people down?   Have you sat and listened, how the words really sound?
What's up with the music that fails to edify?  You're defeating the purpose; you're causing people to die.
What's up with that!

What's up with the ****** games, we allow our children to play?  Some children are destroyed by their siblings, because of what they do and say.
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.

Are you still breathing, without a respirator in your lap? I say that's good news, you don't need any help.
Are you able to walk around with your precious feet?  I say that sounds like good news, and I think it's unique.
Are you able to see with your beautiful eyes?  I say that's good news, there's not a seeing eye dog by your side.
Are you able to use your hands, after all they're a masterpiece.  I say that's good news, to be without them, there will be nothing to reach.
Everyday we have good news, it may not be what you expect.  If we didn't have our body parts, we couldn't bring out our best.

What's your role, in playing a part, not to make this world a better place?  Do you sit back and make nasty comments, about a particular race?
What's your role, in playing a part, to make sure certain people don't get
ahead?  Do you have so much evil, controlling your heart, you make sure people are dead?
What's your role, in playing a part as a Producer, for a Television Show?  Will our children act out what you have produced, from things they did not know?
What's your role, in playing a part, in helping feed the homeless?  If you stopped to do your part, believe me they will be blessed.
What's Your Role?

In this day, we are living in, no type of transportation is safe to take.  With all of the disasters that's happening, it may be wise to be late.
No need to sign up for a Cruise, it may be filled with the Noro Virus.  Not being able to get into a bathroom quickly, will do nothing for the people in a rush.
No need to aboard a train, the Conductor may be interested in sending texts.  Before you even know it, you're upside down in a wreck.
No need to ride a bus, especially, when ice is on the ground.  So many have been turned over, and some people are no longer around.
No need to use certain cars, because I hear there is a "Call Back".  People have already lost their loved ones, only to suffer lack.
No need to catch a plane, you may never return home.  You don't want to leave your relatives, to  live all alone.
Maybe, we need a "Time Machine,"  then we can understand why no one has returned.  To choose the right form of transportation, has anything been learned?
By, Sandra Juanita Nailing
What would your lost loved ones say, because they are not around?  "You need to stay strong and healthy, and keep your precious minds sane and sound.
They would say, "Stop crying, and go on with your daily care."  Pay attention to those who are close, let them know that you are there."
They would encourage you, "Don't be tormented, by what you hear on the News."
"Refrain from hearing misguided reports, causing you to get the "BLUES."
They would say, "You know you have a future, even though we are out of sight."  "Get up from your depression, and began to "Fight A Good Fight."
They would say, "Do something different, to keep people on the Globe."  
"Don't let another plane disappear, to a place where nobody knows."

When a baby arrive, why can't this world be clean?  It has to come into a world, where people are so mean.
When a baby arrive, why does it hear bad words?  Why can't we speak in harmony, so out voices can be heard?
When a baby arrive, why can't the air be pollutant free.  Yet, they have to breathe in all kinds of toxins, causing a lot of allergies.  
When a baby arrive, why do they hear so much noise?  Not just from the adults, but every girl and boy.
When a baby arrive, can things began to change?  Everyone should join together, so this can be arranged.

When death calls, it's time for you to go.  Death is your enemy, as well as your foe.
When death calls, you cannot run and hide.  You may as well get ready, to peacefully close your eyes.  
When death calls, you have no Legal Case.  It's time to say good-bye, to the human race.
When death calls, you walk this road alone.  So accept this invitation, to your heavenly home.
When death calls, this is something you cannot escape.  Make sure your life is right with God, so you don't end up in the Lake.

When God makes you, you don't have to be ashamed.  He will make you happy, and give you a new name.
When God makes you, you'll have a lovely smile.  You no longer have to get angry, acting like you're wild.
When God makes you, you'll live a life of peace.  He will give you love, that will never cease.
When God makes you, your future will be bright.  People all around will be drawn to your light.

WHERE ARE YOU, WHEN YOU ARE NEEDED RIGHT AWAY?  IT'S SO GOOD GOD IS AROUND,  THAT'S WHY I QUICKLY PRAY.
WHERE ARE YOU , WHEN YOU ARE NEEDED ON THE SPOT?  NO MATTER  HOW LARGE THE PROBLEM, MAYBE TO GOD IT'S A DOT.
WHERE ARE YOU, WHEN YOU LOOK FOR SOMEONE TO BE THERE?  I KNOW SOMEONE WHO IS MIGHTY AND STRONG, HE'LL BE SURE TO CARE.
WHERE ARE YOU,WHEN INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW?  I DO HAVE KNOWLEDGE, OF A HEAVENLY PLACE TO GO.
WHERE ARE YOU, WHEN YOU NEED A QUIET PLACE?  GOD IS STANDING RIGHT THERE, TO PLEAD YOUR EVERY CASE.

When you needed help was God there on time?  Was He waiting there, making sure you had peace of mind?
When your life was in danger, was God by your side?  Did He come quickly, all because you cried?
When you found yourself broke, not even a quarter; was God around, to deliver you out of "Hot Water?"
When you were lost, burden on the wrong Road, did God come to assist you, lifting your heavy load?
When I need God, He seem to be there.  I love Him so much, I'm sure He is aware.

When we send our children to school, we expect them to come home again.  We don't expect them to get stabbed and shot by insane people, that's deeply disturbed within.
When we send our children to school, we hope it would be for the entire year.  We don't expect their lives to end, by someone filled with confusion and fear.
When we send our children to school, we expect them to be safe.  Not to contend with those who are mentally ill, and those who are filled with hate.
When we send our children to school, we expect Police Officers presence   around.  We do not expect them to arrive late on the scene, after students are dead on the ground.
When we send our children to school, we expect nothing but the best.  Continue to create safe strategies for our children, some that will past every test.

When you watch football, you don't pay me any mind.  This does not happen once, but you do it all the time.
When you watch football, why do you talk so loud?  It's only two of us, but you act as if it's a crowd.
When you watch football, why do you eat so much?  I fed you breakfast, lunch and dinner, yet, you still ask for a bunch.
When you watch football, you turn to check out other football games.  You fail to realize, your wife is going insane.

When are you going to move, life is passing you by?  People daily need your help; some are about to die.
When are you going to move, you chose to sit so long?  People are being abused, others are causing harm.
When are you going to move, don't just sit there?  Stand up and go out; people need your care.
When are you going to move, you have been sitting for years?  People need your encouragement; why not help wipe their tears?

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.

There will come a time; you may not know what to do.  Remember, that you're a winner; don't confess you are threw.
There are many roads; we are destined to cross.  This is not the time, to believe that you are lost.
Hold your head up high, and observe the nearest " Sign".  Perhaps, you can help others; please don't leave them behind.
While you are helping others, in the direction that you are going, make sure they are " Good Seeds" that you are sowing.

When you fall, you don't have to stay down.  Look at the hands reaching out, to lift you off the ground.  
When you fall, lift your head up high.  This is the time to wait patiently, until someone stop by.
When you fall, that's not where you'll stay.  This will be a good time, to take time out to pray.
When you fall, it's important to keep alert.  If you have been wounded, make sure you get rid of the dirt.
When you fall, let someone know how you feel.  Once you decide to open up, then a plan can be revealed.
When you fall, you may think this is a "bitter cup."  Once you receive a little more strength, you'll be able to stand back up.

Between two and three this morning, around four notifications were sent concerning my Mother Day poems.  But I notice only 1 is left, and the other three are gone.
Please don't do this to me.  If notifications are sent, then this is what I want to see.  For those of you who sent "liked" out, on the Mother Day poems, please do it again.  For the "liked" not to be credited to me, is only a sin.

Where can people see Jesus, could it be in the face of man?  Could He be walking around in your footsteps, of our glorious land?
Where can people see Jesus, could He be in you, when you are stopping a fight?  Could He be inside of you , when you are encouraging our youth, to do the things that's right?
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?
Where can people see Jesus, we see Him inside of you?  No matter what you are going through, still let people see Jesus in you.

Why do you worry, about things out of your control?  You need to dismiss all fear, and stand up and be bold.
Why do you worry, about the things of tomorrow?  Have faith that God will provide, so you don't have to borrow.
Why do you worry, about the days ahead. " Tomorrow is not promised to us;" we could end up dead.
Why do you worry, and negative words you say?  When God already provided, and made a way out of no way.

Who are you?  Are you the person God created you to be?  Since we are made in His image, can God say, " I Can See Me?"
Who are you?  Where are the man and woman I made, from the dust of the earth?  You are not the person, that I brought forth from your birth.
Who are you?  Why are you acting strange?  I made you a strong man and woman, and not someone weak and vain.
Who are you?  Why have you taken my place?  You have decided that you no longer liked what I formed you to be, and even changed your face.
Who are you?  Tell me what is your name?  I look down from Heaven's Throne above, but you are not the same.
Who Are You?

When your life is turned upside down, and you're bouncing off the wall, in order to find relief, who are you going to call?
When you are trying to past a test, all because it's hard, who are you going to call, please say, "The Lord?"
When you have lost everything, because of a very bad fire, or a mud slide, who are you going to call, to grant your heart's desires?
When you have so many bills to pay, and the collectors want leave you alone, who are you going to call, so you can stay in your home?
There is only one person to call, and that's "The Lord!"

When our leaders are voted into Office, their integrity were upon our mind.  Somehow, they get off track, they moved and stepped out of line.
When leaders are sworn into Office, they promised to tell the truth.  They knew all eyes were watching, even the eyes of our youth.
Why become a leader, knowing your heart is corrupt?  If you are planning on telling lies, this is the time to give it up.
People need honest leaders to look up to, so the world can be a better place.  Someone need to be sincerely honest, and help heal our human race.

My sister lay in the Hospital bed, breathing on her own.  I don't see any tubes around, from the Doctor, bad seeds are sown.
They have stopped feeding her solid food, and no food into her veins.  What about this picture I see, to me it is insane.
The Doctor has taken off his white jacket, and put on the robe of God.  I believe he better be very careful, before God decide to use His Rod.  As long as there is breath in a person's body, do you realize there is still hope?  During your moments of waiting, God gives you strength to cope.
Lazarus lay in the tomb, for three long days, in that smelly grave.  There was still hope for even him, because the Life Giver stood by him, Mighty and Powerful to save.

While people look up to you, are you training them right?  Are you a good example behind their backs, as well as in their sight?
When people looks up to you, be a person of integrity.  Always be honest in everybody's eyes, because they copy what they see.

Who made you God, to laugh at his creation?  Who made you God, to take control of every situation?
Who made you God, to take matters into your hands?  Who made you God, to go around making demands?
Who made you God, to throw your weight around?  Who made you God, to hold people captive and bound?
Who made you God, not to set the people free?  Who made you God, to hinder, so they cannot see?
You need to humble yourself, so you can move ahead.  You need to show forth humility, so you can be lead.

Who said you deserve, to make a list, of all the things  you want?  Yet, you kept on doing your thing, when we constantly said, "Don't."
Who said you deserve, to pick out things in the Store?  When you kept on bothering your siblings, when we said, "No More!"
Who said you deserve, to travel with us, on a vacation trip?  After you ignored us speaking to you, until we were about to flip?
Who said you deserve, to wear the top of the line shoes?  Yet, we continued hearing reports, that you were very rude.
You do not deserve anything, but a lesson on how to respect others.  This lesson need to began, on how to treat your Sisters and Brothers.

There are only two Spirits that can be working inside of you.  It can be the Spirit of God, or the Spirit of the Devil, to allow you, to do the things  you do.
Do you have the Spirit God, leading you to do what's right?  Or, do you have the Spirit of the Devil, constantly provoking you to fight?
Do you have the Spirit of God, encouraging you to make it?  Or, do you have the Spirit of the Devil, using you to give everyone a fit?
Do you have the Spirit of God, teaching you how to pray.  Or, do you have the Spirit of the Devil, telling you to go astray?
Remember, you have to choose who will lead your path.  There will be only one, to inspire your love to last.

Who told you that you were grown, even though you are still a child?  You need to stop showing off, acting rude and loud.
Who told you that you were grown, and what's up with the foul lips?  Also, you need to clean the floors, that's covered with all types of chips.
Who told you that you were grown, not showing adults respect?  Wouldn't it be better to be kind, and not get people upset?  
Who told you that you were grown, not to care how you look?  You can find all types of examples, in magazines and glamour books.
I want to tell you that you are not grown, and I will not deal with your attitude.  I want you to know that you are not all that, even though you think you are cool.

Why are people crooked, when they see you are doing your best?  They will do anything to provoke you, so you can't past the test.
Why are people crooked, instead of helping you succeed?  They choose to do things behind your back, so you can be deceived.
Why are people crooked, they know you are getting ahead?   With their evil heart, they wish that you were dead.
Why are people crooked, knowing you live a life that's right?  Yet, they are always in your face, trying to pick a fight.

Why are you acting strange, when someone is trying to help you?  One thing you need to realize, the goal is to bring you peace, and see that you make it through.
Why are you acting strange, shutting everyone out?  Stop confessing negative words, which allows you to doubt.
Why are you acting strange, giving up on things around you?  Perhaps, you need to step back, and focus on what you want to do.
Why are you acting strange, I'm your friend, and not your enemy?  I think you should open your eyes, and see that it's really me.

Why are you crying, was it you who caused the pain?  Everything that was done for you, was it all in vain?
Why are you crying, did you make one's heart to bleed?  You were given sound advice, so you could take heed.
Why are you crying, You made one's head to ache?  You were pointed in the right direction, to see what road you'll take.
Give out beautiful flowers, don't wait until a person is dead.  Do your best to make a person happy, choose the right road ahead.

Why are you not grateful, for all the gifts you received?  People had a hard time finding them, it was not done with ease.
Why are you not grateful, for all the gifts you have in your home?  You seem so eager to exchange them, until every last one is gone.
Why are you not grateful, with the gifts sitting over there in a stack?  You are really thinking about, taking all of them back.
Why are you not grateful, it seem you have so much?  Yet, you are so selfish, daring anyone to touch.
Why are you not grateful, you couldn't have any gifts at all?  Because of feeling bad, you wouldn't be able to walk tall.
You need to learn to be grateful, and thankful in all you get.  When you decide to do so, you want easily get upset.

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.

With all the trouble we have to face, from day to day, why not learn to be nice, in all we do and say.
This is an evil world, how can we make it better?  Write suggestions to the President, by sending him a letter.
How can we get rid of violence, that's tearing us apart?  Are you willing to come up with a plan, and when will it start?  
With all the shootings going on, can you make it stop?  We have depleted all to make it happen; we are about to drop.
What's wrong with being nice, to the people we see?  Encourage them to move forward, being the best they can be.

Why do you come to school, leaving notebook, and supplies at home?  You are always walking the halls, searching for places to roam.
Why do you come to school, having a bad attitude?  You disrespect your teachers; with the students you are rude.
Why do you come to school; are you planning on going to college?  You need to get your act together, so you can gain more knowledge.
