HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMA
































Today is Momma’s Birthday

May 2007 my Momma passed away,
Today February 25th was my mothers day.
Born 65 years ago, in rural Mississippi.
Her Father a sharecropper,
Her Mother a teachers aid.
The third child of my grandmothers nine.

My Mother, Ms. Doris Mae
Was a force, hardly words could say,
The mother of four
Three girls and a boy
She raised us dominate and strong
She raised us all alone

Momma,
Was the best story teller one could be
Her voice changing with every character she’d read,
Her sound effects gave such imagery,
Momma aimed to please

Momma was a disciplinarian,
From a whole other era
We cried, hollered, ran and screamed,
Momma ran, like a star athlete,
I can laugh now you see,
Back then I thought my momma was mean,
For others, I can not speak,
Thank God for Momma’s love
While disciplining me.


Today momma I miss you so
I miss the way you called my name
I miss how beautifully you sang,
Regardless of the words you rearranged,
I get a laugh when I think of you,
There are times I pass the mirror
And instead of me, I see you.

Thank you momma for the memories
Thank you for visiting my dreams
It’s your voice I desire most to hear
From my voice mail,
Your voice eventually disappeared.

Getting back to Living has been a little slow,
Dreaming of you this morning, helped me to know
Its time to get the move on..
Thank you for being there
I heard your message loud and clear.
I love you Momma
Happy Birthday.

Cultivate Faith & Love


photo by Julia Hysilvinia,Rochester NY


The sun shined beautifully today,
Then easily passed away,
The evening found me,
Lazily day dreaming, of life

Best explained as fantasy,

Believing regardless how silly,
The emergence of my dreams,
The Mustard Seed of my faith,

Pungent, the aroma of possibility,

Birthing my reality,

Measured not in my success,

As so, my willingness, to give my best
Rising from the dung hills,

Piled with the effects, of
Re-Jec-Tion
Impaled, broken, but never hopeless
The sun shined beautifully today
Reminding me, as it gently passed away
Spring is near
Cultivate, cultivate, cultivate

For Love will find a way.

VALENTINE S.O.S


Valentine,
Whomever & Wherever you maybe,
These solemn words I pen for thee.
In the silence of my midnights,
In the vision of my waking dreams,
My soul swims shore-less seas,
Tossed & tethered in aching absence of thee.

Valentine,
I cry, knelt beneath a darkening sky,
Bracing for the evening tide,
restless are my heart & mind,
Knocking, seeking, expecting to find,
A heart akin to mine
Lamenting the absence of its…

Valentine,
Tempestuous these choppy seas,
Testing my patience & belief,
Weathered, are my soulful pleas
Damaged by my unmet needs,
Yet, I continue to dream,
Visions of you rescuing me,
Valentine
S. O. S

GOOD BYE


A note,
Balled and thrown
To the concrete path
Inscribed were the words of a lovers last breath
Kicked about
During the noon day rush
Tumbling, transiently, like underbrush
With one big gush of twirling wind
The note is found and read

Good bye my lover, my soul mate and friend
I tried so hard not to succumb, to giving in
I know, I kelp you in the dark
I merely desired to spare your hart
Now I wish I hadn’t kelp it in
And I pray you forgive me for my selfish sin
Had I not sent you away
Perhaps you would have been here today
But I know now what I didn’t know then
This will hurt worse being told by pen

I am free
My soul can sore
I wanted to tell you many times before
But you weren’t ready to explore
Pains corridor
I tried so hard to explain,
Every time I considered your pain
We’ve come to our end
Good Bye My Friend..

King on the Throne


Marauding through the night,

Anonymously searching,

Sharing conversations of written word,

That in daylight he deemed obscene, & absurd.

Sunrise brought about the quiet solemn man,

Staid in his stance,

Geared for the battle of a professional man.

In his mind he desires love & romance,

In his heart, he's armed for defense,

Barricades against hurting humiliations,

Steeped in bad experience.

He tries again, and again,

Resisting the risk of being exposed.

Instead of finding love,

He's an Internet Ho (whore),

Merely appeasing his physical need,

While his soul yearns and bleeds,

For the love every man seeks,

To be the King on a Loving Woman's Throne.

♥♥♥ ~ Valentine ~ ♥♥♥

Radiant affection, fresh with dew
Reborn & precious, every touch from you.
Embraced in the warmth of the morning sun
Shamelessly sheltered, wrapped in your arms
Love is born anew.
Time seems to make things right
Forgetting yesterdays of chaotic nights
Time the friend of all who love,
Despite the fight.

Mishandling (to be continued)


Love's like a wild rose, beautiful & serene, will draw blood, during mishandling.

Spirit Broke

Photo image by Starry Eyedkid

How do I continue being the motivator,
When my desires are returned, Maybe Later.
My voice ever holding a smile,
While from my eyes flows the Nile.
Time.
Time?
How much time?
I feel I’m walking blind, needing a guild to help see the light,
perhaps stop and go right. I’m tired of holding a tear stained pillow through the night. I am trying to understand, Is it not in the plan.

You are what you think. I think well of me.
Can’t help what others think. I treat all with loving kindness & respect,
all I get is RE - JEC- TION,
Affection denied.
So what am I saying?
I‘M SAYING MY SPIRITS BROKE!!!!!!!!

My Thought for the Day Copyright © 2010


Sometimes we stumble;
Sometimes faith is betrayed;
Sometimes the mistakes we make
are the stones it takes, to build a pathway to the person we will be. Remember we are ever becoming.
(January 08, 2010)

Wisdom is the prerequisite of perfecting love,
Truth is the prerequisite of revealed wisdom,
If there is no truth, there is no perfecting love.
Seek truth, wisdom and love will follow.
(January 10, 2010)

"When I fall, whether I be friend or foe, stretch forth, help me, dust me off, and send me on my way in love." Yes, Love... The action that surpasses all understanding... The force, that creates forgiveness, in the mist of derision. The virtue, that gives all fallen souls the ability to journey on... and to the sender (the forgiver who's been wronged) the ability to heal, and also grow on.
(January 11, 2010)

Every Today was once a Tomorrow,
Every Tomorrow will become Today…
What will you do Today, to influence your Tomorrow?
(January 18, 2010)

Turn down the thermostat! Stop expelling valuable energy! Winterize your heart! Insulate the warmth of your spirit, and conserve yourself (your being) for those who acknowledge your wroth.
(January 23, 2010)

My thought for today is a reflection of something my mother always said, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and well meaning people, who never got around to proving the thoughts of their heart". (February 6, 2010)

The grass always looks greener on the other side, but don’t climb the fence, the dog bites, the cat scratches, and the owner is a jack ass.
(February 7, 2010)

I would hate to wander through the desert of hope, hungry, only to find the fig tree barren.
(February 10, 2010)

What is adequate for one can be inadequate for another, time reveals what is. (February 17, 2010)

We are all more than we believe, if we merely believe.
(February 26, 2010)

To be unpredictable, for some is a challenge of intellect.
To be conventional, for some is deifying creativity.
To be absolutely unique, is a freedom we all seek, at various levels. (February 27, 2010)

We view photo's, we read blogs and status', we agree or disagree, we like or dislike, we study, examine and respond, based on our perceptions of what we believe is communicated and revealed, What you see is not always what you get.
There are times we should use our prudent minds, to take another look, there could be more than what meets the eye.
(March 7, 2010)

Things don't always End Well,
Yet its well they ended.
(March 17, 2010)

Women, we are always told, we talk to much, so men created Facebook, Texting & Twitter, to teach us to be direct and to the point. Please say it in 140 - 420 characters or less…
(March 18, 2010)

S H I N E !!! Even in your darkness shine.
Those who need your light will see it. S H I N E!!!
(March 20, 2010)

Selfishness will tax any relationship, and chronic selflessness taxes the individual.
(March 27, 2010)

Many of us read to locate, take note of, or memorize, that which has been taught unto us. Some of us study to gather information of that which is written, and has been taught unto us, with no intention of questioning its validity.
Others of us locate, take note of, memorize, gather information and are able to rightly divide the written and spoken word, which has been taught unto us, and there confirming or denying its validity. Wisdom is seeking beyond what is taught or understood, to affirm truth.
(March 29, 2010)

We are taught in childhood, not to question, our parents, our elders, and those deemed to have religious authority over us... We are not to lean to our own understandings, and if we find ourselves of another opinion, we are told it is the devil. Therefore withstanding our failure, our unwillingness, our fear to question, that which is questionable, we adhere to a belief passed down but never scrutinize by those we looked to for guidance. We pledge servitude to a belief we ourselves struggle to comprehend, and in so doing, we vaguely acknowledge the God-ness, the creative force within ourselves… (Greater is he that is within U than he that is in the world. (The world meaning, outside of U.)
(March 30, 2010)

Misery loves company, and hurt people hurt people. If folks fail to take the time needed to heal, they will always repeat the cycle of pain. I have found love means different things to different folks, so we must find our definition of love, and apply it as we await the arrival of that mate, whom shares the same definition of love as ourselves.
“Can two walk together, except they agree" Amos 3:3
(March 31, 2010)

Normal isn't fun....
Sanity has no adventure... and when U go crazy,
there are no valid excuses... I'm staying crazy...
(April 24, 2010)

Not every Hello is permanent,
and not every Goodbye forever...
time is the common denominator.
(April 29, 2010)

Allergies are like sucker punches,
there aren't any warnings,
and you're never prepared....
(May 3, 2010)

There must be balance… as you will learn;
your success is no more superior than your greatest failure.
(May 4, 2010)

Reggie Arnold THOUGHT: you have to love some people from a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng distance. Help yourself before you extend too far, there may not be enough rope left..
(May 8, 2010)

God always places the answer within us...
We must be still enough to hear, and wise enough to listen....
(May 18, 2010)

soap & water don't make U clean..
it just makes U washed...
so watch U'r deeds...
(May 27, 2010)

Love at first, second or third sight is possible.
For U determine the love u will give...
U determine the barriers or limitations U will set.
We don't love because we think others will love us,
We love because we so desire to do so,
Despite whether we are loved in return.
Love at first sight simply means I choose to love this person despite their willingness or lack thereof to love me back...
I will love without seeking a return...
I Love u because I can.
(June 28, 2010)

All Life's lessons can't be learned in a day,
so slow down and pace yourself,
it's not that kind of race. ~Sista
(July 27, 2010)

It would seems at some point we should graduate
from believing to knowing...
Are U ready for your cap and gown?
(July 27, 2010)

Wine is a necessity... for relaxing conversation... :)
(July 29, 2010)

One should not work to maintain faith,
If you’re working, you are working in fear,
For faith and knowing, just is.

If you’re giving to get,
You’re not giving, you’re lending.
(August 10, 2010)

Baby stepping to my forward motion....
Hope the train don't leave the station fo' I get there...
(August 18, 2010)

One of the most amazing encounters is watching my thoughts manifest before my eyes...
I am grateful
(September 3, 2010)

Rummaging through the closets of my memory, I found U.
Just like old times, we laughed and smile, and joke for awhile, then the phone rang, and guest what, it was U... (September 29, 2010)

Wisdom can sometimes look crazy, and looks can sometimes be deceiving. (October 22, 2010)
