ECHOES REBOUNDED

The Actions
You Do In Life

Are Heard
Throughout
Your Life

The Only
Confinement
Is Your Restraint

Life Shows
Wrong
When It Is
Not Right

There Are
No Special Areas
To Do
As You Like

It All Shows Up
In Life

Wrong Or Right

The Book Of Life
Counts It All

Yesterday, Today,
Tomorrow’s Choices

God Will Help You
To Make
Better Choices...

A Poet’s Quill
[POETS QUILL]


My Quill is dying

My Blotter’s wet

My Tears are falling

My words regret

My Heart is hurting

My Feeling jest

My Soul is searching

For Eternal rest.

My Quill has spoken

These immortal words

The strokes

I have written

Will be the last words

My Quill is gone

Though I rest

I still think,

of the Poet’s Quest.

To find the words

That make us best.
Dedicated to
all Poets Past & Present

A Poeatreeman

“The Quill will be the Poet’s Soul”
“Immortalize in Every Word!”

A WALK WITH DEATH

I walk
with Death
Each
day of Life

Knowing
it will be

Yet
I go on living

For Death
is not the end
The loss
would not
be living

Life
has its part
Death does too

God
opened
the door,
brought Me
on through

Until it closes
I will
walk with Him

For
God
gave Me
this moment
To walk with Him

For
when
the door closes
I will
be with Him again.

A THOUGHT!

It is not the hour
I will end

it is the end
I left
at the beginning

For
My start
was the end

My
end
was only beginning

A Poeatreeman

The Dark Side
of Life
is not Death

It is All The Shadows
You Cast On Life

All The Wrongs
You Never Made Right.

A Poet's Note

If I follow Myself
The
end will be in site

For
how far will I go
Before
the road ends?

CUPID

Cupid
may have
shot the arrow

Yet
I am the one
who feels the pain

Cupid
may have
left its mark

Yet
without my heart
there is no target

Cupid
may have
come with love

Yet
it is my heart
that brought love in

Cupid
may have
touched the spark

Yet
it is my flame
that lights the arrow.

CUPID'S NO ANGEL

Cupid flying
with bow in sight

shooting arrows
into flight

you're no angel
playing strings

you're a Cupid
with a sting

winged and naked
is thy mark

shooting arrows
from the start

you're no angel
playing darts

you're a Cupid
taking shots

Cupid flirts
and strikes the sparks

having a love affair
with a heart

you're no angel
playing games

you're a Cupid
with an aim

now I feel
your arrow wing

I've felt
the sweetness
of your sting

you're no angel
playing harps

you're a Cupid
that left your mark.

A TRUE CIRCLE OF LOVE



[father-child]
A TRUE CIRCLE OF LOVE
[CIRCLE OF LOVE]



EDGAR ALLAN Prieto1:02 AM (edited)Edit

A TRUE CIRCLE IS LOVE

FOR IT IS YOUR BOND BETWEEN YOU AND HE.
AS IT SHOULD BE.

FRIENDSHIP DOES NOT MAKE YOUR CIRCLE REAL
ONLY YOUR HEART, FOR THOSE WHOM YOU FEEL.

AS FOR YOUR CHILDREN LOVE ALREADY HAS CIRCLED THEM IN
THEY ARE THE JEWELS IN YOUR CIRCLE OF LOVE.
REMEMBER THESE WORDS, THEN YOU WILL KNOW WHO TO LET IN.

I HOPE A WELL MEANING THOUGHT FOR YOU TODAY.

FROM A POEATREMAN
WHEN YOU PLACE ME IN THE CIRCLE

UNLESS I AM IN YOUR HEART
I AM JUST PENCILED IN.

One's Happiness Can Make The Entire World Smile

“The universe is a complete unique entity. Everything and everyone is bound together with some invisible strings. Do not break anyone’s heart; do not look down on weaker than you. One’s sorrow at the other side of the world can make the entire world suffer; one’s happiness can make the entire world smile.”

A CHILD'S CARE
[JFK_Child_Miseducated_Child_Lost]
Saturday, 28 June 2008
A CHILD'S CARE

Don't Use The Bible
To Make A Child Conform
Use Love and Understanding
Patience and Care.

God Will Do The Rest

If They Say His Prayers At Night
Say, Them in The Morning
All Throughout Their Life

He Will Be There With Them

To Guide Them Through The Night
When They Wake in The Morning
They Can See God's Own Light

Knowing He Was There

Watching Them in Life
For They Said Their Prayers
From Morning, Noon and Night.

Guided By God Steered By Love

Cared By Understanding
Patience, When You Teach.

Tears Will Make it Easier

If Your Heart Becomes The Ship
You Can Sail On A Tear
A Tear That Cried To God.

He Has Given You A Heart
You Will Have To Love To Meet.

God Will Be Your Guide
If You Take Him In Your Heart.

For The Child In Your Life
Remember They Have Heart.

A Poeatreeman

To all Mothers & Fathers

SAY A PRAYER FOR LOVE
LOVE WILL CARRY YOU

PRAY FOR CARE EACH DAY
CARE WILL BE YOUR WAY.

GOD YOU GAVE ME WHEELS

I would
slow down

God
you gave
me wheels

How fast
should I go?

Before
the days
roll over me

Roll
only to see me
never over me

There
are other people

Who
need to see
the way

All of them
are special

Each
must find
their way

You
can come
to me

You
do not need
your wheels

Or
even feet
to see me

or
even walk
the way

Carry
your heart
with you

I will be
there today

Take
the days
to find me

All
are welcome
who come
my way

Love
will let you
reach me

Faith
will take you
all the way.

A THOUGHT!

There are
no traffic lights,
to stop you

Only
your own sign

Know
where
you are going

Watch
for the signs.

DEDICATED TO CHRISTOPHER

A Poeatreeman

Heaven
is not a place
I can travel to

Though
it is the direction
I want to go

It will take
a life time
to reach

The road
is long and winding

many
a toll to pay

The cost
is faith
to get you through

Heaven
is the way
I can reach you

So take
no other way..
