  The First Kiss

  The first kiss I remember well

  As well as our first embrace

  I remember how it made my head swell

  And made my fluttering heart race!

  I remember the twinkle in your eye

  Your heavenly glow lit up the sky

  Your tender lips were ever so soft

  They sent me drifting ever aloft

  Rather than floating on cloud nine

  Your kiss sent me to heaven divine

  I was literally lifted off my feet

  By your passionate kiss ever so sweet

  I swear that I seen stars after that kiss

  My mind clouded by a heavenly mist

  There is no doubt what that kiss did for me

  It left me suspended in shear ecstasy

  It is hard to believe that so much passion

  Could be in such a simple action

  When you’re gone your presence I miss

  So I think of the first kiss

  To Be with You

  Like the bees need the honey dew

  And the dark needs the light

  All I want is to be with you

  Cause I care for you with all my might

  Though I just met you a week ago

  I would simply like to say

  Being with you makes my heart flow

  From day to day

  I'm afraid that I might fall in love

  Looking at the twinkle in your eye's

  Sparkling like the stars above

  Drifting romantically through the skies

  How I would like to kiss your sweet lips

  And caress your soft skin

  I beg you don't let my heart rip

  Stand beside me and hold it in

  You’re pure as a white cloud

  To walk with you I would be proud

  You’re sweet and beautiful

  Your kindness is plentiful

  For the rest of my life I want to be with you!

  Carnal Minds

  There was a time henceforth when I had ten thousand dollars to spare

  Happy with what the Lord hath already blessed me with, I decided to share

  Having no need for the money I called two local men to mine house

  Rumor had it the second man had the reputation of a cheat and a louse

  The first man whose name was Greed, came in and sat near as could be

  Behind him was a man named Wisdom, but he sat far, as he smiled at me

  I told them both that I had five thousand dollars to give to each

  Then said Greed, "give it here now!" as he leaned closer so as to reach

  While I counted the money I looked upon wisdom's silence as wise indeed

  For I knew he was patient, and of life's carnality he did heed

  I counted aloud the words "Five thousand" and then quickly did Greed snatch away

  His half of the money, so in life's pleasures he could foolishly play

  I looked up expecting a gracious word of thanks from the greedy wretch

  But he was already gone without a word; it was Satan's lures he did fetch

  Then I looked over at my friend Wisdom, who was never reeled in by Satan's lure

  He always appreciated the life that the Lord hath given him which in itself was pure

  A very uplifting man that always a smile for me and all that did pass by

  For he was happy knowing our Lord whom graciously arose in the sky

  I handed him his share and he quietly tucked it away

  Then he went on about his business until a later day

  A week later Greed ran Wisdom's old wagon off of the road with his new car

  As he laughed about wisdom spreading his money to the poor afar

  Then without notice the man in the sky did call

  He said “The books are open, now come one, now come all!”

  Greed waited in line continually bragging about his carnal things

  Until he learned that he had traded them for his heavenly wings

  He went to a place not fit for a man as he looked up at Wisdom flying by

  He pleaded "Just one sip of water I beg you bring me from a cloud up in your sky"

  Wisdom smiled and said "Dear friend, I stored my money in Gods eternal bank"

  It was your earthly treasures that did demote you to a sergeant in Satan's rank

  It was only yesterday that you passed a starving woman in your car so nice

  I stopped in my tracks, gave her food and shelter, I didn't have to think twice

  Now I am here with her in paradise, the place the Lord set aside

  For those with a conscience and a heart, who in his laws did abide

  Though I did have a thirst for life's carnal things

  I knew that I couldn't fly up here without my precious wings

  Speak to me no more from the pits of Hell

  For justice is served, and I chose well!

  Lost Sheep

  If a friend or a loved one has gone astray

  Go after them and show them the way

  Do whatever it takes to save that lost sheep

  For he is more important to God than those in his keep

  Remember the parable of the prodigal son

  Who partied away his inheritance until there was none

  Broke and ashamed he returned to his fathers place

  He said "I am unworthy father, and a disgrace!"

  He said, "I am hungry and homeless, please accept me back

  I will be as one of your servants, my work wont lack"

  His father rejoiced and fit him with all the best

  For now his son was home and he could rest

  No longer by Satan was his son bound

  Alive, well, and repenting, he returned to holy ground

  Once he was dead, and for things of the flesh he did strive

  His father exclaimed "Rejoice, for he was dead, but now is alive!"

  Remember also the parable of the lost sheep

  Once returned to the shepherd such joy he did reap

  He said "rejoice with me, for I found that which was lost"

  So go after that sheep, at any cost

  Jesus said "Such will be the joy in heaven over one who repents

  Even more than over ninety-nine just and righteous whom need not relent"

  So go after that sheep that went astray

  Earn a blessing from the Lord today

  Rather than throw that sheep to the wolves

  Send him home, safe on his hooves

  Narrow Road

  The Lord has laid down a straight and narrow road for his sheep to follow

  Satan's flying demon's has thrown hot rocks in its path, tis his wrath they do swallow

  To either side can be found greener roads leading to and fro

  Some are smooth as silk and easier to tread, but I dare not where they go

  Tis safe to assume that they lead not to Emmanuel’s pasture straight ahead

  For the bible warns of these winding roads that lead to despair and dread

  Those silky green paths, some of which curve in and out wayward out of sight

  Lead to an inevitable pit stop, its host the prince of night

  Right beside the Lord's narrow road is another that seems just as straight

  It is greener so it seems and its climb that of a lesser grade

  It also has fewer rocks tossed by Satan's winged demons from hell

  As to all
ude the weak in its devious deception making them think that all is well

  So many people follow that road beside that appears to be straight

  But in the end they shall find that it drops off before heaven's gate

  Though they took the simpler path that seemed straight at first

  It dropped them off at hells gate and left their souls accursed

  The Rose

  Deep in my heart nobody knows

  How I felt when I got your Rose

  All by itself on that pretty long stem

  Its golden petals the symbol of a friend

  Not one negative word has come from your lips

  That is what makes this a the best of all friendships

  Upon the petals of that golden flower

  Is where we will build our friendship tower

  It seems that whenever I am in trouble

  You are always here on the double

  It is even more precious that we don’t fight

  That is what makes this friendship ever so bright

  I never get scared in bad weather

  Because we always ride the storm out together

  Remember my friend that roses come in all colors

  So that you can give them to even your lovers

  That red rose is what I would like to receive

  For without your love I surely would grieve

  I have been happy in this friendship

  But for another to have you my heart would rip

  Revealing these feelings may be bad

  But as our friendship grows I become sad

  For I have never had a friend quite like you

  To ignore these feelings I would be a fool

  I sit at night lonely and confused

  As my other searches for love have left me abused

  Do I dare make a Lover out of a friend?

  Risking that a perfect friendship might end

  This decision will be yours to make

  For your wisdom leaves little room for mistake

  For your answer I will wait a while

  No matter your decision I promise to smile!

  City Life

  City life is all that I know

  Lights for miles let off a glow

  Plenty of people spreading good cheer

  As together we count down the New Year

  Some prefer to be secluded and live far away

  Some in the mountains and some by the bay

  Flatlanders they call us with a simplistic smile

  Yet to get to a store they drive many a mile

  All that I need is here in this beautiful city

  For those missing out I feel such a pity

  Today I will catch a movie while they sit on the porch

  I will enjoy air conditioning while they sit and scorch

  I'll have my morning cup of coffee in the diner, and a friendly chat

  While them hillbillies sit and weave a straw hat

  At least they can sit and count squirrels in their spare time

  I will shop in the city and watch a mime

  Beautiful city women are all around

  No! You can't see them from your mound

  A Flatlander I may very well be, and a city boy no doubt

  Just remember, if you are lonely in the hills, there is always Bigfoot for you to take out!

  The Lords Blessing

  Because you came to me before the end

  Now it is for your soul that I will send

  You have realized your sin's and that is good

  You are sorry for sinning against your brotherhood

  In the end you were no longer fighting Life

  You finally gave in to its strife

  You finally realized that I wanted you to love me by faith not fear

  That is why you couldn’t see me but knew that I was here

  At first you hated life and its demands

  Until you reached out for my loving hands

  Tell your family, "Please do not grieve!"

  For I promised eternity for he that would believe

  Tell them you will be waiting in the Promised Land

  Someday together you will play in the sand

  Tell them to go after that one that went astray

  Bring them closer, don’t push them away

  Work together, stay by their side

  Teach them my love, but don’t insult their pride

  Show them my love, raise their spirits high

  Tell your family I needed you here in heaven up high

  Tell them please do not shed a tear

  Before long they will join you here

  Tell them that I have forgiven you for all of your sin

  Tell them I also opened heavens gate to let you in

  Be a good friend and a good host

  Show them the way to the Holy Ghost

  Be there when they fall to lift them high

  Do all these things and they join you in the sky

  To Thee I Love

  I love everything about you

  Your soft, soothing, lovable self

  How I want to be forever with you

  More than anything even wealth

  I love the glittering sparkle in your eyes

  The true sweet sincerity of your voice

  These words are from my heart and not lies

  Only for you will my heart be a hoist

  Love me, squeeze me and hold me tight

  Be only mine the rest of your days and nights

  Please hear my voice of plead

  For it is you that I love and only you that I need

  You are all to me that really matters

  More precious than gold or silver platters

  Lock your heart to mine and throw away the key

  For me it would be fine, for I truly love thee!

  Listen to the Children

  Listen to the children, to what they have to say

  Or some where down the road you will wish you did that day

  Listen close when they reach deep within

  To say how they feel, or want to confess a sin

  Listen well to their hearts cry

  Hold them close, don’t let emotions fly

  Don’t harp on them when they are a sinner

  Better yet, rub it in when they are a winner

  Because people mirror what you put out

  They are calm when you are calm, they shout when you shout

  Tell them that you love them, when they are young

  Or someday you’ll pray that the jury comes back hung

  Tell them “You are my child and I am proud!"

  Make sure you say this nice and loud

  Make sure you spend a lot of time with them

  Or your relationship will surely be condemned

  Grab a toy car and hop on the floor

  For this he will love you so much more

  Show them attention, show them you care

  Teach them that you are willing to share

  Make sure that you are always in their reach

  Teach them all that you can teach

  When they show you a desire to learn

  Read to them until your eyes burn

  Make sure you show them a lot of respect

  Or some day your relationship may be wrecked

  I have these words to he that will listen

  Follow them and your life will glisten

  Take the family to a picnic under the birch

  Or better yet, join them in church!

 

  Faith and Determination

  If you have a dream, deep in your heart

  Hold onto it with a strong mighty grip

  Do not let the negativity of others tear it apart

  Walk tall in confidence, careful not to trip

  I've heard it said that dreamers live forever

  Now with understanding I realize it is true

  For they always leave a part of themselves here br />
  So that in our memories their message will get through

  Not the dreamer’s body, but their work lives forever

  In their struggle to be noticed by me, and you

  They never give up, or give in to the weather

  Working hard on that dream, unlike so few

  Remember my dear friend this lesson I've learned

  Disbelievers laughed at Noah, Edison, and Wright bros too!

  So now you know the more they laugh, less to be concerned

  This merely confirms that the road you travel is true!

  If you listen to your heart you'll soon see

  Your happiness and self confidence grow

  You will be happy regardless the outcome of destiny

  Knowing you gave it your best you'll know

  "A young seed not planted surely won’t grow"

  Wait for Me

  Yes darling I am blue

  Sitting here in this human zoo

  But I will be home soon you can bet

  So please don’t worry, please don’t fret

  I am sorry that I landed here in this Jail

  Sitting alone in here without you is living hell

  I have done a lot of thinking since I have been here

  Wondering how I could have let you down my dear

  Being without you is like being a petal without a flower

  I hope you know that I love you with all of my power

  If I could remove just one bar

  I would squeeze out of here and run so far

  I would run until I got to you

  And show you that my love is true

  I watch the birds through these bars

  Then at night I gaze at the stars

  I close my eyes and wish that I could fly

  Then I open them and begin to cry

  Because I know that I can’t be with you

  Until this sentence that I serve is through

  So please my love wait for me

  It won’t be long until I am free

  I promise you that I will change

  My whole life I will rearrange

  I have learned my lesson of this you can be sure
