Final Truth: A Novel
By Mariah Stewart

THE LIGHT OF TRUTH


The Light of Truth
is always shining bright

The Light of Man,
is not always bright

The Darkness of a Lie,
will try to cover the Light

So keep Truth
by holding it high

The search will be easier,
When Truth is Your Guide

Look not in the shadows,
For Truth to hide

Only a Lie
will cover itself

Truth will tell You ,
What a Lie can do

A Lie will tell  You
it's not True.


A Poeatreeman

Who is the Spider
Who weaves the Web?

Who gets caught
in their own little Web?

Who is trying
to hold it on a Thread?

Who can balance it out
on one little Thread?

A Lie
will spin its own Web

Trying to Dangle
on its own Thread

Who can
Deceive it all for You?

Yourself!,
When a Lie is what You do.

Dedicated To Dianne

A Poet's Note

The Light of Truth
Reflects on Man

How Bright will it be,
When He Keeps it in Hand?

How Shiny will its Star be?

How Much will Man See?

How Many Truths can there be?

How Many Lies ,
Before Man will not See?.

TRUTH IS THE CASUALTY




   
TRUTH IS THE CASUALTY
OF ANY DEBATE
IT’S MARRED BY WORDS
NOT MISTAKES

FOREIGN TRUTH

I VOTED FOR GOD
FOR I KNOW
HIS POLICIES.

I WILL USE
MY PRAYERS
TO REDUCE
MY SORROWS.

THE BALANCE LEFT
WILL GO TO GOD.

THE COST OF HEAVEN
WILL BALANCE MY DAY.

I HOPE THE SCALE
WILL SHOW MY WAY.

FOR WHAT IS LEFT
I WILL HAVE TO PAY.

POEATREEMAN

WHO’S POLICY IS RIGHT
TRUTH !
IT DOES NOT LEAN
LEFT NOR RIGHT
IT STANDS ON TRUTH
TO SEES WHAT’S RIGHT
IT SHOWS ITS POLICY
IN THE LIGHT.
                  

POET’S NOTE

I WANT
A POLICY OF TRUTH
THEN IT WOULD NOT
BE FOREIGN.
ACROSS THE WORLD
OR HERE AT HOME
IT IS NOT THE COST
OF MONEY
THAT IS SO HIGH
IT IS ALL THE LIES
RAISING OUR DEBTS.

A DEBT INCURRED
BY A COUNTRY
CANNOT MEASURE UP
TO THE LIES IT UNFOLDS
YOU ASK
WHERE TRUTH IS SPEND
YOUR ANSWER
IS IN THE DEBT.
WHERE LIES COST
YOU WILL PAY
THE DEBT.

LIFE

DEPOSITED ME HERE.

I AM STILL TRYING

TO FIND
       
THE INTEREST.


MY GOAL

IS TO REACH

THE END.


HOW MUCH

WILL I GAIN THEN ?


WHATEVER

I PUT IN.

WILL SHOW

MY WORTH’S NET.


THE BALANCE LEFT

WILL MY SOUL REGRET ?



A POEATREEMAN

WHAT DO I GAIN
IF I LOSE IT ALL ?

WHOSE TOLL
WILL I PAY
TO ENTER THE GATE ?

THE SCALY  ONE
WILL BALANCE
YOUR LOST

THE PEARLY ONE
WILL WEIGH YOUR COST

THE BALANCE LEFT
WILL BE YOUR TOLL.

YOUR LOSS
IF YOU PAID
WITH YOUR SOUL.

YOU'VE TIPPED
THE SCALE
WHEN YOU
GAVE HIM
GOLD.

SYRIA CLUSTER BOMBS

           
RUSSIA CLUSTER BOMBS
IN SYRIA

DEATH IS NOT ILLEGAL

ONLY THE TOOLS
TO KILL YOU.

HOW FOOLISH IS MAN.

KNOWING WAR WILL
KILL HIM?

YET HE KEEPS TURNING
OUT HIS TOOLS.

A BULLET IS OK.

DEATH WILL TAKE
ANYWAY.

HE CARES NOT
FOR THE TOOL.

SO LONG AS IT WORKS.

WHY CANNOT MAN
GIVE LIFE A HAND.

STOP SERVING
DEATH A HAND.

IT IS MY FOOTPRINTS I'VE LEFT FOR YOU




FOOTPRINTS

EVEN THOUGH
YOU ARE

MY COMMANDER
IN CHIEF
        
YOU ARE NOT
MY CONSCIENCE

I MUST MEET.


GOD'S VALUES 
ARE MY RULES.
I FACE
A GREATER TRUTH

WHOM

I MUST MEET.


WHAT WILL
I SAY TO HIM

I FOLLOWED
THE DAY

WHEN
I AM AT HIS FEET?


SHOULD
I RETREAT

ASK HIM
TO COMMAND ME

TO FOLLOW
HIS WORDS?


GOD IS TALKING

I HAVE ONE PATH

IT DOES NOT
FOLLOW MAN.

IT IS
MY  FOOTPRINTS

I LEFT FOR YOU
IN THE SAND.

TO PRESIDENT

WHEN IN DOUBT

THE VP PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE





THERE WAS NO WINNER.

FOR THE AMERICA PEOPLE
LOST.

TRUTH WAS NOT
THE SOURCE.

PLANS WERE SPOKEN
YET NOT RESOURCE.

THE COURSE SHOWN
MORE OF NOTHING.

WHAT PATH WILL I TAKE
TO PLAN TODAY?

I’D GUESS
I HAVE TO WALK ANOTHER WAY.

POEATREEMAN

I'LL VOTE FOR GOD
I KNOW HIS LINE.

THE PATH IS STRAIGHT
NO CROOKED LINES

RONNIE AND THE WISE OLD OWL
By Carroll Crosby
see related

A WISE OLD BIRD


You did not get Wise
Because you are Older
You got Older
because you're Wise

We all exist

A Wise Old Owl
is not in a tree
Not if He is Wise
to what He sees

He may
Hoot and Holler
If He is Wise
He would be Quiet

Take  what is in the View

Know
When and not  to Speak
Know
Who Perches Beside you

It is one Thing
To Get Under  your Feathers
Another Thing to Lose Them

If I am Wise
to What is There
I will Keep what I Have
And Grow with Life

Maybe one day

I will be
a Wise Old Bird

If I do not Ask
too much
Only Expect to Glide
For it is Not
Easy Being Here

Through Wisdom
I Can Learn
I am better
For I have a Chance
to Grow my Feathers

Hoot and Holler  if I Want
What Bird am I
That is Wise Enough?

I am Still in a Puzzle

Trying

To Find where I am
Supposed to Be

A Wise Old Owl
Once said to Me

Learn your ABCs

Then Start with Wisdom
to See What is Me.

A Poeatreeman

Know Truth and Wisdom will Follow
Dedicated to The Learning of Humanity

LIFE IS NOT YOUR ADVERSARY FAILURE IS

LIFE IS NOT YOUR ADVERSARY FAILURE IS


Opponents

If Success and Failure
Are Opponents

Then Defeat
is the Referee

When Neither
one is Successful

Then Defeat
takes this Round.

I could not Fail,
I could not Lose

Oh! the cries
I've Heard
When Ego Boasted.

I could have Won,
Arrogance Hailed.

I am Fighting air.

Win, Lose, or Draw,
It is not
the smartest Bet.

When Defeat
Is Staring
you in the face.

Mirroring
your every move.

He will surely
take you down.

Round one is not over.

Punches are thrown.
From all Directions.

Bob and weave,
Will let you stay in.

Keep on Fighting,
To the end.

Will!

Will last as long as you.

Life is not
the one to fight.

All the wrongs
that are not right.

Will!

Will help you
in your plight.

Wrong is your
Greatest Opponent.

You must fight.

Love will soften
when it can




Those bruises
will show
Now and then.

God can mend
What man has done.

Round two

Life goes on.
It is hard to fight.
All lifelong.
What can I say?
Try to Win
There are still rounds
to be Won.

Now count.
To the ends,
You will know
your wear.

You've faced it all,
And shown the best.

What more is left
Then to see
it all through?

You stood your ground
In spite of failures.

Now
you can call yourself

A Champ.

God is in your corner
He will keep you
in the round.

Remember!

You always
have a prayer.

Say it now.
For it may be
your last round....

A POET'S NOTE

Success and I
Are very old friends
It is failure
I do not want to see again...

Defeat,
Keeps me in the rounds
I have to fight both.
To win this round.
Success and Failure
Are my lifelong mates
I have to deal with them
Round by Round
It is never over
As long as I'm around....

A Poeatreeman

"When the Trumpets Blow"
WHEN THE TRUMPETS BLOW****
Revisit once again
You will better understand.
Defeat is not your friend.
It is the Opponent
That will fight you
To the end..
