A HUMAN SERVANT

You can climb to the top
But then you climb down
And life goes on
What does it take 
For everyone to
Get ready to
Move forward on 
The road ahead?
To meet this challenge
We have to overcome
The blood
The sweat
And the tears
It feels pretty damn good
Let us give it a try
Be a human servant
A Samaritan
The rewards
Are astonishing

EASTER MORNING CONTEMPLATION

Canadian Geese dip their
Heads and beaks into the water
Pooling on the ground from melted snow
They look calm and at peace
Appearing to feel safe in this
Early spring environment 
It is Easter Sunday; many church goers
Are looking for peace; thankful for
The gift of forgiveness provided by
The risen Jesus.  They are not
At peace with their freedoms being
Eroded by executive orders and fiats
The birds are not threatened while
We cower because the media advises us to
Teachers are under the order of the unions
And Blue State Governors who want to
Resist classroom teaching in another effort
To control the masses and
Keep them in a state of fear
Leaders say follow the science and then ignore it
In the beginning they played the blame game
But the Donald proved them wrong
Now the new occupant is cancelling
All of the good things that were done to
Safeguard our border and now we suffer
The consequences of evil persons crossing
The border into our country – smuggling in
Sex slaves, drugs, murderers and rapists
The geese may fly away, but we are stuck
Until we finally understand and
Take our stand getting our beaks wet
