Grandma Kay's 95th Birthday

Grandma Kay just turned ninety five,
on her birthday in 2009.
In her nursing home her family was there,
Watching her blew out birthday candle without a care.
She was the star of her birthday show,
She blew out a candle that sparkled and glowed.
Friends and family sang along,
to her personalized birthday song.
Her son Russ played the guitar,
this was her best birthday by far.
She unwrapped presents from family and friends,
she was very happy like a child again.
Photo memories are snapped in time,
To remember Kay's 95th Birthday that shined.

Don't Dread That Casket Bed

When i am dead,
I don't want to dread,
Seeing people cry for me
That is never ever going to be,
Dont wear black,
Cuz it'll lack,
The personality that i had,
that would be bad,
Don't wear white,
With a alot of might
because it looks like a wedding,
Not me laying in my forever bedding,
Wear brightest colors,
And be my Like my mother and brother,
Wear blue purple and green,
So bright they can be seen,
Talk about my life story,
Were i once had a life with no worries,
talk about my smile,
that shined for a mile,

Magnificence

In each of us lies the brilliance of fresh morningdew,
shined upon by glorious sunrays.
In each of us lies a promise,
like a rosebud waiting to bring forth a beautifull flower.
In each of us lies an inmeasurable kindness,
vast as the ocean which is full of love for all life.
In each of us is an innocence and purity,
just like fresh snow that charmes us.
In each of us is a strong presence that cannot be denied,
much like the air we breathe.
In each of us is an innocence,
just like fresh snow which enchants us.
One can summise we are all of that and more,
cause each of us is a living miracle!

I Did It For You

Tetteh loves tea and Kofi loves coffee!
But, i did it for you because i love you.

You love me and i love you,
And, this brings joy to the muse of the peace around us!

I did for you because i love you,
And, you did it for me because you love me.

Bombs of this world! !
It would be more peaceful for a man to live alone far away from civilization.

The shadow of death,
By the way od the sea!

In darkness,
But slow to anger and great in kindness.

A sign from heaven!
But, the sky is now red and threatening! !

Flashy Sadie

Rings on her fingers, pearls at her neck
so much jewelry she loved to collect.
It made her feel like an elegant lady.
Everyone knew her as 'flashy Sadie.'

She wore rubies, sapphire and jade.
Her wrists all encircled with bracelets that played
all up and down her arms as she moved,
glittering in the sunlight which just proved
she would feel naked without all her jewels.
She would be just like the other poor fools.

She'd been collecting this jewelry for many long years.
She polished and shined them and the worst of her fears
was being without them. What would she do?
She'd be plain old Sadie who nobody knew.

Day of inauguration

It was a long night for me,
The trees were still,
The silence moving like a grave,
The wind so swift yet silent,
The stars fading and vanishing,
The day of inaguration

The owl flew past my roof,
The fear of mine manifested,
Waiting to hear her accept,
Or deny,
My window nolonger transparent,
The darkness approached my presence,
Set me free beautiful one,
The temparature decreased,
Movements i could hear,
But presence i could not see
My day of inaguration

She said yes to my request,

The Very Best Of Their Addicting Fictions

A writer who plays with politics,
Is not the same,
As a politician who writes...
To have people read to see it known,
The very best of their addicting fictions told.

And a writer who recites to speak,
May sound as if he could preach.
And from pulpits quote...
The very best of their addicting fictions told.
And no one would ever know.

With eyes closed,
Who should they follow.
Who is perceived to lead.
With eyes closed.
And who...
Eventually is discovered to have credibility,
With the telling of the truth.
Words delivered as they are and not dressed,

For The Death Of A Friend

Dani you are in the hearts of many,
A true friend that's hard to find,
You have many qualities,
That no one could of out shined!

You have that beautiful smile,
That could light up any room,
Take away the darkness,
And burn away the gloom.

Truly caring compassionate,
Qualities of a cherished friend,
With your heart of gold,
And a love with no end.

You will be missed by many,
As u spread your wings and fly,
Soring as a sparrow,
Watching over us from the sky.

My 1st little car

Look there I see it

I seen it there just in sight

I felt the butterflies it felt so right

I felt the connection

I knew it was the perfect selection

My 1st little car

It was green and eye calling

The price cost my thoughts nothing

It stood out from the rest of the place

I knew that we would be together

The stars in the sky was bright

Last night the stars
in the sky was bright
and the moon,
was in a sickle shape

The five stars
of the southern cross
twinkled at me
and below them,
the two pointers
was sparkling much lower.

The yellow half moon
was grinning
and your eyes glowed
and shined like pieces
of tigereye quartz
and your smile,
sparkled like a string
of the whitest pearls
