“I DO NOT MEAN TO STRING YOU ALONG, SO I WILL LET CUPID, PLAY ALONG.

Sunday, 22 June 2008


Tennis Anyone?
By Richard H Gould

CUPID'S PLAYING TENNIS

What a Racket
He's Stringing now!

Is He trying
to Shoot Arrows from it

Or Hit Love
to Make a Point?

A Game of Love
He tries to Win

Is He trying
to Volley with a Heart

Take Aim
at Serving Love?

Who Will Match
The Game of Love?

A Cupid
with Forty Love

Match and Win
was Cupid's Aim

He Aced The Heart
and Hit Love

What a Racket
in Cupid's Hand

He's Serving Love
Each Time He Aims

He's winning Hearts
with His Game.

Dedicated To Cupid

For Love is The Aim
Valentine
is just not one day
it is Each Heart ,
Serving Love Every Day.

To All Happy Valentine's

Love is Served Both Ways,
So give it Your Best Shot

To keep it in The Game.

A Poeatreeman

Court play can be hard,
So keep your Heart in it

Then you will know,
Who is serving Love

Care will give you a better hand,
To Serve Love Always.

A Poet's Note

A Foot Fault!
When Cupid hits His toe

His Heart was still in it,
He needs a better Aim

So Watch Cupid!,
He May Hit You with His Serve

Love Will Help You With Your Aim,
If You Keep it in The Game..

I would guess to say
I have to get
A new Mayan Calendar
Theirs ended
With the World.

If the Gun is
The Enforcement
Where is the Freedom ?

Hope is a Candle
Still yet lit.

Faith is the Candle
That Hope can Exist.

Love is the Flame
That God
Can Shine the Way.

Belief is the Light
That Keeps
The Dark away.

GOD’S ROOFTOP THE MOUNTAIN OF LIFE

THE MOUNTAIN OF LIFE

Take each stride
To step to life
In each step
Strive for best.

Take the Mountain
To the top
Carry through
all you do.

If it seems
Hard to bare
Know someone's
There with you.

Though the load
Seems more,
Than you can do

Life is only greater!
When it is shared by you.

Into life we must live
Taking each Season
To the top

In our hands
is all we can
The Mountain of life
is life itself.

As with each new peak
it must be climbed

There's only , One
Who will hold us down
Or one who will hold us up

The will to climb
above ourselves.

The Greatest
is not the Climb To the Top

The Climb who made us
Find our self.

Through all life has to do

To all we must go through

Is to find our reasons
Why we're here

To know
God is there with you..

HAVE YOU EVER FOUND YOURSELF IN A HOLE ?

WHOSE FOOTPRINTS ?

I WOULD GO STRAIGHT TO HELL,
IF I FOLLOWED THEIR LINES
TRUTH IS NARROW
THOUGH I CAN STILL,
FOLLOW THE LINE,
I'LL JUST GO STRAIGHT AHEAD.
AND I WILL KNOW MY END.

AN HOUR BEFORE

It was an Hour before Christmas

When death came to my door

It was an Hour of life

That I live life long

It was an Hour of reflection

That showed me what I've been

It was an Hour of sorrow

For I've seen all I did

It was an Hour of repentance

For I had an Hour to live

It was an Hour of redemption

For I pray to God to forgive

It was an Hour of my Life

No longer could I live

It was an Hour when I was Born

That death brought me to Heaven

It was an hour

When I passed beyond the door

Eternity is open now, what do I do?

Follow that Spirit who said I am you

Now !
Where am I going?
Only where I was before.

A Poeatreeman

One Hour to make the most of Life
One Hour to mark a place in Heaven

Dedicated to Rose Prieto
Mark the Time
For it is not Long..
