We can call God by any name
Allah Hashem or Dieu
He comes to us in many forms
From birth until adieu
Some people think that God is just
A figment of imagination
They think that people made it up
To hold people in congregation
And yet the image of God has lived
Through many generation
There are some who believe and some who don’t
Some hold God in infatuation
There are some who pray and some who hide
The belief is in gradation
However you hold the thought of God
In heart or in damnation
He plays a role in many lives
We call him he or she
And yet in truth the God is neither
Just energy in which to be
Our belief in God will set the stage
For who and what we are
Doesn’t matter if we believe in ghosts
Or angels who live on a star
For God is the whole the completion of us
He teaches us right from wrong
He helps us to hold onto more
He guides us to belong
For without God what would we be
A stranger lost in space
He holds onto humanity
With love, compassion, and Grace
We think that God is far away
A place that we can’t see
When in fact he’s deep inside
Each one of us as we be
God guides us on our every step
As we go on through our life
He holds us to a higher form
From here to afterlife

Family is a state of mind
Family is an affair
Were meant  to keep together
And sometimes we stop and stare
At others who we wonder about
We want to look and learn
What is it that keeps families alive
Lets’ talk and let us yearn
For that which some take so for granted
And that which can be true
A family is people together
From them you take your cue
You work as one you talk as one
You do things all together
It is so simple to chug along
In all kind of sorts of weather
And when it gets too difficult
To keep  your mind in sane
You start all over and try to win
And do it all again
For family just means people together
Who are working together as one
family can be a mom and dad
And children playing under the sun
Family means support when we are down
It means cheering up when things aren’t right
It means talking and caring and coming around
When life is holding us tight
Our ancestry tells us the we are whole
Our lineage binds us together
It means we keep hold when things are not right
And even in sunny weather
We may think families have to be perfect
When in truth so much can go wrong
A broken family is very painful
And many have spoken in song
Families take courage and great strength and pride
It takes lots to make it go right
But when we all get together
We certainly are quite the site
Families can be so many things
We congregate, join, and compete
But when day is done and we’re on our own
Our family makes us complete

It’s really time to write a poem I should give it a try
For writing poems gives me a chance to really explain why
We need to share our inner thoughts we need to understand why
Our words can bring forth wisdom and our words can make us cry
Our wisdom place knows oh so much if only we can share
The things we’ve learnt the things we know give others if we care
We aren’t here to sit around we really should ask why
We aren’t alone on this planet Earth so we should really try
To reach out to others , to hold their hand, to give a little sigh
Put others before our own true self and not just pass them by
For all we know is just a part of an ever greater whole
We need to know why we are here, we need to play our role
We may think we are small and weak and not a player in the game
We may think we are different or we may think we’re the same
Whatever the course we should always remember that we’re not here alone
We’re part of an ever greater whole our talents we should own
Whatever part we play whatever we’re meant to do
Is a part of the whole life game to our own selves we’ll be true
Just find out what you’re good at, what you love to do, where you show strength
Keep at it with a follow through it’s important to go the length
For we have come with good and bad, we need to find what brought us here
The part we play the reason why will one day become clear

We usually think of beauty
As a very pretty face
Or how people act, or what they do
May also be the case
We’re told that beauty lies
In the eyes of the beholder
Some people also see beauty
As a person that is bolder
But me, I think of beauty
As the sunshine in the morn
Or the face of a brand new child
On the day that he is born
Beauty can be a running steam
Or the reflection from the sun
Beauty can be the enlightenment
On the face of newly ordained nun
Beauty can be an object
That brings us so much pleasure
Or an act that is reversing
That has brought us such displeasure
Beauty can be a state of being
That is pleasant to the senses
Or a ****** exposition
That brings forward our defenses
Whatever beauty means to you
We hope that you have more
That you find some time to listen
To the water at the shore
And take the time with gratitude
To understand your fate
And enjoy the beauty before you
Before it is too late

Some days
When I sit in the silence
And wonder what life is about
I stop
And reconnect
With who I am
And who
I want to be
All is never lost
When we know who we are
And where we are going
Sometimes
The path is clear
And direct
And
Sometimes
We feel lost
And unsure
Of who we may be
In the future
So
As long as you hold onto
Who you are
You
Can do
Anything

Tick tock, tick tock, time is passing by
Sometimes it makes me happy and sometimes it makes me cry
Our busy time moves by so quickly, when at rest it sure slows down
Time is measured by what we do and how we move around
Einstin talked about  ripples in space-time and the relativity of life
Some people talk about the here and now and others about past life
Time is the continued sequence of events that occur throughout our day
Time is the measurement of what we are as we work and as we play
We plan and schedule and arrange our days with activities galore
And sometimes we just sit and veg and never move out of the door
So how can we make the best use of our time on a daily basis
If we procrastinate and sit around and get nothing done in stasis
Time has a way of flying by until our time is over
If we don’t use our will and make some changes our life we won’t turnover
Take the time, make some time, use your time spent well
Do the things that make you happy, do the things that to you compel
Do the things that bring you happiness and the things that bring a frown
Do the things that fill your day up rather than spending time lying down
For time moves by and before you know it your time will be complete
You want to look back at all you’ve done and know that your life was sweet
So take the time and do your best and consider each breathe as your last
For life passes us by so very quickly and before you know it life has passed
Count each tick tock as a gift to hold and cherish  as your own
Meet friends find love and celebrate and know that you have grown

Isn’t it amazing how much attention we give to body
We dress and clean and groom it and explode when we look shoddy
We think that our appearance is how other's tend to judge us
Can we take some time here to justify and talk, so let us now discuss this
Our body is just a part of us, a part and not a whole
Take time to look a little deeper then you’ll find a better goal
For our bodies are just a fraction of what we should be looking for
If we look a little deeper then for sure we will then score
We are more than just our bodies, our minds and feelings, oh
We are so much more than what we know, let’s take this all in tow
We have a body to take us places where we’ve never been before
We have a mind to guide that trip and feelings can be a chore
So body, mind and feelings are just a part of who we be
And what is it that steers the ship? Let’s look and we will see
We have a body, mind, and emotions and we are so much more
We need to find our true, real self, we need to find our core
The Self that guides who we are now and who we’re meant to be
Is something more than our tri self, take time to look and see
Our self is a flow of mind-stream and ****** conditions
Our self is taken care of by our family physicians
Our Transpersonal Self is able to stand in itself
Received, absorbed and utilized by the self
When we look beyond body, mind and emotions
We find that we’re much more
Than who we thought we might find
Our true Self at the core
Our driving force is Self which is a truly focal point
An enduring reality, stable center with a very simple viewpoint
The Self is what is left when we take away the parts
The Self can stand alone, it’s the power from where life starts
The self is not a working force, in a sense it just can be
For the Self is not the electric cord, it’s the power which we can’t see
The self and Self in unison can be a beautiful dance
It comes from knowing who we are, it’s experience not happenchance
So if we take just minute to know we’re more than just our body
We’ll find that we are so much more, a soul that we embody
Materialism is believing that our body is all we are
Yet when we look much deeper we’ll find our soul is the true star
