STILL CLIMBING
[STILLCLIMBING]



FAILURE

IS THE OPPORTUNITY.


SUCCESS

IS THE GOAL.


TRY

IS THE STEP

TO REACH

FOR THE GOAL.



BOTH

WILL MOUNT

A TEST

OF YOUR SOUL.


WHICH


WILL CLIMB

THE HIGHEST GOAL ?



TRIUMPH AND DISASTER

WILL BOTH

SHARE THE ROAD.


TRY

IS THE EQUALIZER

SO LET IT

NOT REST.


IT WILL TAKE

FAILURE AND WINNING

TO SEE THE BEST.

FAITH

To you that have faith
I need not explain

To you that have none
I hope you would find

To you that believe not
What can I say?

To all of you I would say
God is on his way

To you that have time
I would pray

To you the hour
May be one second away

To you I would say
Faith is the way.

A Poeatreeman

Faith has a big hand ,
When it comes to God
IT LIGHTS
THE LIGHTHOUSE
FOR ALL TO SEE.

Dedicated to God

REFLECTIONS

Reflections of what we see
The likeness we came to be.

A mirror of our soul
The image we came to free.

So think of what we've seen
A cast we chose to be.

Blame not Reflections
For what we happen to be.

If we have no credit?
to what we are indeed.

we must ponder
bring our Reflections.

Its needs.

THE MIRROR OF OUR MIND

Is a life beyond our time

To feel life we've loved
Has only touched our mind.

For bittersweet was our sight
In The Mirror of Our Mind.

To see all our life.

For time has passed
Image lasts.

To gaze upon our mind

Reaching the life we've left
In the Mirror of a time.

THE ROAD OF LIFE

The Road of Life,
are many Roads

Each in all directions

To find
the one we need to walk

To keep our perception

For down the Road

There will be many turns

Going without directions

To take us
to an endless point

Where nothing
can be said

For going
nowhere

Is the only point
we made

We have to
find our Life

To know
which Road we're on

When we can
we'll know the end

of the Road
we walked before.

FORMULA FOR LIFE
[FORULAR]

FORMULA FOR LIFE

I am the sum of myself
what am I equal to
plus or minus?.

Multiply if I am right
Add and I will answer
Divide and know the half of me.

A fraction of myself
Will show a part of me.

When you add the whole
Make sure it is all of me.

A THOUGHT!
One calculates and hopes
The answers are right
There are many equations
to find the sum for life
I am greater than
the sum of myself
if equal to it

Dedicated To Audra
Love A Poeatreeman

I have all of life to find the sum
I have life to find the answer
I have choice to find what is right
I have the balance to weigh it out
I have truth to give me the answers.

I AM THE CHISEL


WHO CARVED
MY OWN LIFE.

I STAND
AS A PORTRAIT.

TO SHOW
WHAT I AM LIKE.

MY FOUNDATION
WAS STONE.

STRONGER
WITH GOD.

I HAD
TO HOLD UP.

LIFE
HAD ITS CRACKS.



MY HEART WAS SOFT
FOR LOVE
TOOK THE BLOWS.



MY CARES WERE HEAVY
I HAD TO CARRY
THE LOAD.


MY STRENGTH
WAS STRONGER.


FOR GOD CAME ALONG.


MY WEAKNESS PRETENDING
HE WAS NOT THERE AT ALL.



MY FAITH
IS THE MOUNTAIN
THAT MOVES VERY SLOW.



MY HOPE
IS MY DREAM
I WILL SEE HIM AGAIN.


MY LOVE
WILL STAY WITH HIM
FOR HE IS MY FRIEND.



BEYOND ETERNITY
WILL NOT BE THE END.



LOVE WILL FIND HIM
I WILL BE
WITH HIM AGAIN.

WILL FIND PEACE TODAY.
FOR TOMORROWS SORROWS
WILL BE HAMMERED
