WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD

Again, the eight-thirty light
Allows a beautiful blue sky
Accent the loveliness of the pines
Amazement is a good term
Seemingly, just out of winter
But well into spring, one gets
The sinking feeling as the 
Sun sets well north of due west
Days are getting longer and
Nights shorter until the end of June
Then as the earth turns the days
And night will be equal
We live through this every year
It is lady nature and we adjust

Sometimes we make rules to save time
Allows farmers more daylight
And children to have light in the morning
We have international time lines, so
Alaska is the state most north, east, and west
Hawaii which rose from the ocean
Is our southernmost state
Most do not know this, but
They do know a beautiful day,
And a delightful evening
Now it is almost nine and
There is a streak of pink across 
The southern sky
It is amazing and we all may sing out
What a wonderful day

ARE YOU TROUBLED

Do not let your hearts be troubled
Words from the holy bible
We live in troubled times
Which allows us to despair and
Wonder what we can do to
Change the direction of our country
Where the wrong people are in charge
And stealing what we used to call freedom

Where do we turn, what can we do
Return to our roots; return to our faith
There is someone in charge - the One
The “I AM”, whose Son died on the cross
For the sins of liberals and all of mankind
We pray for rain but keep on hoeing 
So we pray to God and look at what is
Right in front of us that we can improve
I wonder if the “woke” state would agree

We need accountability, reliability and
A media that begins journalism once more
A Supreme Court not marginalized and
Elections that we can verify as not corrupt
My heart is troubled, but I have faith
I will keep on looking for what I can do
Helping others, treating them with respect
Consider everyone my brother or sister
Pray for the occupant who cannot say CDC,
Dot Gov. or dot com, without stumbling

We are not out of the woods, but
Do not let your heart be troubled
Sanity will eventually prevail
Are we not His chosen people?
There will be that day and
We will know then

BALANCE

We need it in our lives
In what we do and think
Balance is key, but
We tend to go overboard and
Give the answer on
How we will pay 

The answer unbalanced
Government will provide
Debt does not matter
And needs no balance
Does not make sense

We consider balance
In climate change
Where we have no control
As nature acts on her own
And batteries are in the hands
Of our competitors and enemies
But Joe knows; he has the answer

We need to unite he proclaims
And learn to depend on government
We need carbon dioxide,
In a balanced way
It is a nutrient to plants and trees
They exchange it for Oxygen
Which we also need in a balanced way

Joe – Joe knew this at one time
Now he cannot remember
And is just a puppet
Balanced by those on the left

YOU AND NICK

I don’t know 
Who you is or
Nick for that matter
But Oprah is going
To do an interview
And talk about
The preciousness
Of having a baby
While Planned Parenthood
Is taking about 
350 thousand
Precious lives each year
We should be happy
About this one opportunity
What a bundle of absurdity

But this is Oprah
She has a following
Like Martha Stewart
And whatever they do,
Say or advocate
Becomes
The thing to do
Both are wealthy and smart
And lean left
For the sake of keeping
Their relationship with
Hollywood and Big Tech
So let us hail this potential birth
Life is precious

CLAP FOR JOE

Keep clapping
It is funny
Peaceful protesting
Lifesaving help offered
Declined by a radical
A leftist who makes claims
As though he were Rambo

A Rambo who turns
His back on the police
While waiting to change 
His diaper
This is Portland
Another flip-flopper
Don’t help us
Help us

Never mind the fuss
There may be fire
But this is peaceful
And Antifa isn’t real
But radical love is
Brought to you by
The moderate left, who
Proclaim they
Have no interest
In controlling you

But desire to leave
The fence open and
Let the tattooed cartels
Control the borders and
Contaminated drugs
And the snuff-porn
Becomes their profit source
Sickness to the extreme
Thank you, Mr. President
We applaud you
Clap, clap

WHAT DO WE HAVE

If we have 
Systemic Racism
In America and
If it is such a problem
Why did the occupant –
Obama – ignore 
Rather than stamp out
This terrible scourge
Did you hear his
VP – the present occupant –
This condition every deplore

No, not at all – race
Is an instrument
Robert Byrd meant more
To Joe-Joe than the
Condition of the blacks
Or the horrible black abortions
The “Great heroine” 
Margaret Sanger was so – so
Right in Joe – Joe’s so called mind

I think that is just fine
If you are a terrible racist
But disgusting and sinful
Is my opine
What we have is leadership
More interested in control and power
Then in helping inner-cities, 
Poor schools and minorities and
Adds unbearably to my sorrow

WHEN TO GIVE


There is not enough time
To be all I wish to be
To give of myself to
Those in misery
All life is precious
I know this is real
I will not be denied
My whole life is yours

It is so sad to see
How others turn
Away from these
And all that I learned
But just are following
The previous given law
That takes away our liberty
And wants us all to follow

But I as are you
Products of liberty and
Are patron of the One Whose
Grace is ever present about us
I love the concept of liberty
And know the cost it bears
It is similar to the belief
That Jesus of Nazareth is Lord

He taught us of the mystery
Told us to go out and share this belief
The Holy Spirit will be with you
What more do we have to know
I avoid judging people, but
Pray for their enterprise
I pledge to give to the very end
And know that my life will then begin
