Requote (Personal opinion of course) Cool

I hope you don’t mind; to good not to play with:
He that wrestles with us,
strengthens our nerves,
and sharpens our skill.

Our antagonist is our helper.”
~ Edmund Burke

To requote,

Thanks for your thoughts
I do not mind your play
your fencing went very well
I will have to sharpen my skills
that my blade my be as sharp
yet my words will only tell
how fencing will do me well
thanks for the lesson

I am on my toes now

Play all you want,
though be fair in your play,
I hope you learn whenever you play
Life’s not a game,

Yet it plays, with your will..
Take heart, it will play itself in the end.
You will win for Heaven is there.
If you choose to win.

The biggest play will be your life.
The curtain has risen,
The play is your to call, When it is over.

Who will be there, to tell you, if its good?.
I hope God and His Angels,
WILL applause your play.

Don’t want the critic. He may burn the play.
A Fires end is not your play .
Enthusiasms ,is ok.
Yet not to burn up your way.
Have fun with my words,
and enjoy the day.




FOOTPRINTS
When in Doubt
The Best Move is Right
Look For His Path
When yours is not Seen
Follow His Footprints
And Know He is You
You Will Find Heaven
Is not Far From You

LIFE
I Have A Life Long Friend
He Is With Me Day And Night
Tomorrow!
He Will Show Me

A Way To Look
At Yesterday’s Dreams
A Bright New Friend
Who Will Shine The Way
Giving Me The Chance
To See Today

PADDY WAGON
They’re Coming
To Take You Away
It Was A Gut
Wrenching Experience
That Drove Me Nuts

Where Going To Collect Me
And Pack Me For Their Lunch

A Choice I Made
To Go On Living
To See Tomorrow
With All The Promise
Of A New Beginning

FINAL TEST
Hear My Words
Do Not Grade My Life
The Score I Make
Is For God To Grade
The Homework I Carried
Is What He Gave
My Lessons Will Be Over
When He Marks My Grave.

THE SUPREME COURT
The Ten Commandments
Are Supreme To Me
Not The Nine Judges
Who Cannot Interpret For Me
Truth Has My Vote
A Lie Will Oppose It
Saying It’s Not Right
God Is My Judge
Who Knows What Is Right
He Only Opposes The Harm
That Will Come To My Life
I Oppose All Wrong
When I Do It Right.

TIP TOE
One step to Heaven
is one I did not take to Hell
One step to Heaven
is each day I spend with Him
One was hot on my toes
Trying to get me on in
I danced around the fire
To keep from falling in.

SPEAK YOUR MIND
Yet Mind what you say
For Thoughts;
Can Convey many things
Wisdom is the Best
It will let you Win
Remember your Thoughts
They are taken within
Pass no Hate;
And Love will Win
A Pleasant Thought;
That just came in

WAR IS NOT HELL
It is an Experience in Hell
Who the Hell would want to War?
The Fool who has nothing to do
I will Fool all of you
And come back a Hero
Now I have Eternity to Boost at Last
I Laid in my Coffin
With nothing to do
Oh Well! I have Eternity
To Come up with something New.

CROSSROAD
We Start with a Straight Road
And Only Turn
When We See a Bend
Right and Left
Are The Choices of The Road
That Will Take Us Beyond The End
We Turn at The Bend
When We Cross The Line
Right and Left is a Narrow Line
Taken When We Choose The Way
Heaven and Hell, are Different Lanes
Crossing Over, Will Change The Way.

GET SMART
If Smartness, is Measured By Man
It is The Dumbest I Have Seen
Wisdom Never Measures
It is Wise not to do
We Each Have a Gift
That Measures Us All
Finding It
We Will Be Wise, when we do
Sharing it,
Will be the Smartest of all
A Poeatreeman

A YARDSTICK
The Measure of a Man
is How He Holds Life in Hand

Nor Shortness Less From Great
It is Equal To The Truth

HIGHWAY
The BRIDGE to REALITY
is a DREAM Built on HOPE
CROSSING it
Will Take a LIFETIME of Hope
The TOLL
The COST of Each Day Spent
A LIFETIME of COUNTING
To The END
How Long Will The HIGHWAY Be
My FRIEND?
LONG or SHORT I CANNOT Say
Yet SWEETER
When You are Here TODAY.

OFFEND
GOD Gave you Two Cheeks

The journey will begin
When your heart, feels the words
