MAN HEAL THY SELF





A POET’S NOTE

To The PEOPLE OF AURORA, Colo

Satan had His Carnage
God will have His Day
Sorrow is not Easy
Hate is not the Way
Love will not be Easy
When Hate is in the Way
WHY
Cannot be answered
So Faith
must be your Way

GUN CONTROL

Gun Control
is a Misnomer
For who
Controls the Gun?
It is We
who are out of Control.

We solve
our problem with a Gun
We should
have a Waiting Period
Before
we fire off.

We should
check our Background
To see
where we are coming from.

We Should
Pray to God
Before
we Lose Control.

For
where we are going
Who is in Control?

Your Choices

Your Aim is Self
Looking
Through Your Sight
Targeted

Truth Will Answer
When
The Wound is Self.

El Shaddai- Amy Grant with Lyrics אל שדי




A PATH OF LIFE


His
road
is laden with thorns

Still
He
walked upon it

Knowing
the pain it holds.


His
path was not
paved with gold

Still
He
is a prince I am told

He
wore only sandals

To
walk the long, long
road home.


His
burdens were many

For
He
carried our Souls

He
cares for each one

Our sorrows in tow.

He
lifted our spirits

When
He
sacrificed all

He
gave us salvation

To make us all whole
He
Suffered the Cross

Paid our tolls.

Heaven is opened,
For each to behold.


Remember
it is once

Don’t
take the other road

You will find it Ends
When
you burn up the road.


Dedicated to all

I hope you’re in line
Heaven’s there
For you to snare

Throw in your line
You’ll soon be there

Take your conscience
It will help
when
you ask for a prayer.


Fisher of men,
God coined the line

I
hope you catch
The catch of all time

A
place in Heaven
For you to find.


Remember
the Good Thief

He
caught Faith in time

He
put His Heart out

God
pulled in the line.


A Poeatreeman

What
path
would God take?

Rightly and Truly
it
is hard
on your consciences

When
He is not with you.

ONE GIANT STEP FOR MANKIND | POEATREEMAN on Xanga

ONE GIANT STEP FOR MANKIND




A STEP TO A HEART


If one can take a step to heart
One can find a way to Heaven

If one can take a step to love
one can find a way to care

If one can take a step to tears
One can find a way to feel

If one can take a step to faith
One can find a way to God

If one can take a step to sorrow
One can find a way to happiness

If one can take a step to hope
One can find a way to dream

If one can take a step to peace
One can find a way to heal

If one can take all these steps
One can find
a way to understanding

If one can take a step to wisdom
One can find
a way through misunderstanding

One step for man is to begin

One step, peace with God 

One step to heart is a way to begin.

A Poeatreeman

Man heal thyself
For the wounds are self inflicted
Hate is the deadliest of weapons
For it cuts into all and bleeds the soul
leaves the heart without a care
No care to bandage the wounds
Pray to God it will not be
Is their anyone
who has love at all?
I just need one love
to keep it all from dying.

HOW BAD CAN IT BE ( THE LORAX ) | POEATREEMAN on Xanga

 

 

 

 

THE FALLING LEAVES


The Autumn Breeze

Come Dance with me

Tumble through the Air

With the Falling Leaves

Come Spinning

Through the Trees


I Fell on Air        

Floating Like a Feather

Twirling Everywhere

Come Dance with me

Spiraling Through the Air

Floating with The Leaves

On the Autumn Breeze

Descending to my Needs

I Fell to Earth and Rest

With the Autumn Breeze

I Felt my Final Breath.

A Poeatreeman

Man !
Will I have
Life or Death?
If I am to go
You are Too.

Dedicated To The Beauty Of Nature

ENVIRONMENT


If The $Dollar

Becomes Mightier

Than The Trees

Will We

Still Be Able To Breathe?

There Will Be,

Two Things Falling

Man And The Trees.


I Hope

It Will Be , Just The Leaves

I Choked On $Dollars

For There Was

Nothing To Breathe.


Let Me Not Make $Dollars

From The Trees

Rather Clean Air

I Can Breathe.



Cut The $Dollars

Not The Trees

Then The Economy

Will Have Room

To Breathe.



Then The Growth

Can Grow With The Trees

The Economy May Fall

So Will The Leaves..

A Poeatreeman

For Every Tree Cut
One Tear has Dried
For Every Tree
Man will Fall
For Their's
Not Tears
To Care For us All.

A TREE IN NEED

AT CHRISTMAS GIVE EARTH A PRESENT

DECORATE EARTH BY PLANTING A TREE



HANG YOUR HEART IT WILL SEED

WHEN IT LIGHTS UP YOU WILL SEE

A NEW BIRTH FOR EARTH TO FEED

A GIFT OF LOVE FOR BOTH OUR NEEDS. 

 TO SHARE GOD'S BLESSING

IN SHADES OF GREEN.

UNDER THE TREE


Under The Tree
Is not once a year,
It is all through Life.

The Presents are there,
Not all will be opened

Each Day is a Gift ,
For Me to open

What I find in it,
Is the Best I put in it

For as I am unwrapping it,
I am tying the bow

The Gift I am giving,
I am making it more

I am putting My Heart in it,
So I can give more

Each Day is a Present,
I can give too

Love is My Best One,
I can give to You

Do not wait for Christmas,
To give it too

Share it Each Day,
You will have it too

No Presents to unwrap,
When Love is Open

Under The Tree,
Let Us Look To Find Peace

Under The Heavens

Let Us Look To God
To Start The Day

For No Greater Gift
Can I Give Humanity

Than To Give Love
Each Day

Keep The Heart Open
Understanding Can Be

Forge With God
That No Sword Will Be Used

Peace Will Come
When Man Loses Hatred

Hope and Love
are The Best I Can Give Today

I Added A Prayer
T
hat We would Find Our Way

God Willing!
We Will See The Day.


Dedicated To The World

For Each Heart

is One Light On The Tree

A Poeatreeman

A Poet's Note

When You Hang Your Heart Out

Remember The Tears

They Are The Snowflakes
Falling For Years

They Will Blanket Love
 To Cheer The Heart

Remember To Care
You Will Light Up
Wishing For Peace
The Light Will Stay On

Hoping The World
Will Get Along

Asking God
Will Help Us All

I Pray The Hour
Will Not Be Long..

THE RIGHT PATH WAR NO MORE

THE RIGHT PATH


I Believe
in The
Course of God


Hope
My Country,
Will
Follow
Through.


For
The Steps
are Hard to Walk


When
I Have
to Walk
Between


My Soul
is Here
My Feet
are too


I am
Trying
to Walk
Together


How Do
I Serve
Two Houses


When They
are Different
Roads?


One Nation!

I Hope
Will Come
Together


One Nation
Under God,
Will Keep
Us Whole.


Dedicated To The Right Step

A Poeatreeman

The Hardest Path
Has
No Direction


The Wrong
One Has
Many Left's


The Right
One, Only One


Which One
Will I Follow


When
All is Said
and Done?


The Path of Choice
Will Be The One?


A NEW DIRECTION

My Country Makes a Crooked Line. I am Trying To Straighten it. Get God Behind.
