Freewill
By Chris Lynch
see related

If I do today

What I should have,
done yesterday

Where am I tomorrow?
in trouble with today

One hour past,
can make it lifelong

One sorrow can reach,
beyond tomorrow

One time
to do, what I should

When I had the will

Past mistakes,
are always there

Right cannot,
erase the wrong

Wrong can make it,
hard to see

Try right, you can see,
what is wrong

Yesterday is
clearer now

Today
a sight much better

Tomorrow
is your vision today

I hope
you can see your way

Try God
when the light is out

Try changing,
for the good

Try will,
to do what is right

Try
the rest of your life.

A Poeatreeman

Free choice must be,
full of knowledge
If will is right

Free will is a choice made
for it is choosing its will.

Living on a Shoestring
By The Tightwad Twins

ON A SHOESTRING

I cannot
get to Heaven,

On a Shoestring
and a prayer

It will
take heart and a tear

My
soul to get me there

It will help
if I am good

It will be better

If
God takes me there.

A THOUGHT!

Pennies
I can pinch

Not
my way to Heaven

I
would be
Taxed too much

Trying
to pay
the other guy

Hell
it cost more
than I made

April 15,
is now a treat

Hell
the taxes
are way too high.

Dedicated to Ronald

A Poeatreeman

Make sure
you count your sense

Dollars
may give you more

Yet
at the end
who counts then?

Better
to bank
on a safe deposit

Put it all
in God's Hand

A safe return
is what you'll win

When
You Keep
Faith with Him..

A CHILD

If I see a child smile

I'll feel
their happiness within

If I see a child cry

I'll feel their pain inside

If I see a child
looking to the stars

I'll know
they're trying to talk to God

If I see a child
reach for love

I'll give all
that God gave me

If I see a child praying

I'll pray that God
will bring them love

If I see a child

I hope it is Jesus coming through.

Dedicated to Phyllis

One, I hope has reached your heart
Whatever I am or whatever I'll be
Is how you see me. Know I am me.

CHILDREN

If I feel the sunshine on my face

I'll know a child smiled at me

If I feel the rain

I'll know a child washed my face

If I see a child look to me

I'll show them God to better see

If I see a child that does not hope

I'll give them love to keep the faith

If I see a child reach for help

I'll extend my hand to open the way

If I see a child that does not hurt

I'll give them my heart
to show there's love

If I see a child talk to me

I'll hope that I can understand

For it may be me.

A Poeatreeman

If I see
A tear, a heart, a soul, for me
What do I have if there's no hurt?
A tear is a child's star
A hope that dwindles with each flow
A falling star touched down to earth
A wish not made
though wished God would.

A CHILD'S CARE

Don't Use The Bible
To Make A Child Conform
Use Love and Understanding
Patience and Care.

God Will Do The Rest

If They Say His Prayers At Night
Say, Them in The Morning
All Throughout Their Life

He Will Be There With Them

To Guide Them Through The Night
When They Wake in The Morning
They Can See God's Own Light

Knowing He Was There

Watching Them in Life
For They Said Their Prayers
From Morning, Noon and Night.

Guided By God Steered By Love

Cared By Understanding
Patience, When You Teach.

Tears Will Make it Easier

If Your Heart Becomes The Ship
You Can Sail On A Tear
A Tear That Cried To God.

He Has Given You A Heart
You Will Have To Love To Meet.

God Will Be Your Guide
If You Take Him In Your Heart.

For The Child In Your Life
Remember They Have Heart.

A Poeatreeman

To all Mothers & Fathers

SAY A PRAYER FOR LOVE
LOVE WILL CARRY YOU

PRAY FOR CARE EACH DAY
CARE WILL BE YOUR WAY.

If I Used A Cup Of Tea
Would You Soften Up For Me

If I Used Care
Would You Stay As Sweet

If I Used Flower
Would You Grind Me To The Floor

If I Used Starch
Would You Stiffen Up On Me

If I Used Gluten
Would You Stick Me On The Wall

If I Used Butter
Would You Fall Away From Me

If I Used Sugar
Would You Sweeten Up At All

If I Used Water
Would You Feel Any Softer

If I Used Yeast
Would You Raise Me To The Ceiling

If I Used Salt
Would That Make You All The More

If I Used Pepper
Would You Sneeze Me To Beyond

God Bless You
Thank You I am Here Already

If I Used Eggs
Would You Scramble Me Instead

What A Mix That Would Be
Maybe That's The Key?

If I Gave You All I Have
Would You Make A Better Cookie?

If You Gave All You Have
Than What A Cookie You Would Be

Also Sweet and None Too Soft
A Kind Anyone Would Love To Have.

What Fills You Up
Will Pour From You
What Taste You'll Have
May Be Hard To Swallow
Your Cookie Your Treat
I Don't Have To Bite Into it
I Like To Know its Sweet

Take it With Some Care
Understand What's There
Dip it in A Tear
To Soften What's Inside
Knowing it Can Be
All You Thought it Was.

My friendship is life

To have peace and give it too

My prayers are only one
With God at my side
one prayer will do.
