Infect the Affection

Hidden beneath the surface of the path
Lay the footprints of those who have sauntered before me
I lay witness to the power of God;
Though I dare not speak as a prophet or a Wiseman!
But I can sayeth that thee have learned of love!

Love comes from the highest of the source!
It is what moves! Motivates! Drives!
Without love all else fails!
Where would we be?
Like a flower wilting away
Weeks after being cut from root…

Love hurts!
Hurt is given, hurt has been taken
Love is gratefulness!
Within the boundaries of our lives we stay aware!
Love is taking the chance and stepping outside that comfort zone
Love is giving to those who just need companionship!

Easy it is to get trapped in the lust of sensual pleasure!
Shallow it is to pretend it is anything more than a medium.
True love starts deep in the shell, the center of being.
Once peace can be found there, it can be spread every where!

The peace that comes in finding gratefulness in all things!
Disappointment, Achievement, Love, & Loss!
Experience the life; learn to let be, what should be let be!
Life is not always kind, or fair, or just; but it is life!
Pray concerns, ask whys, pray gratefully;
Trust in the prayers not answered!

Waketh in the morning to the hope of a fresh day
Lay in wake before rise,
Ponder upon things to be grateful for.
Give thanks for the day
Pray for strength and guidance
Pray for smiles
Infect the affection in others...

Stress lay in which is chosen to be carried!
Simple it is not to accept the things we cannot change
Therefore pray for wisdom
Pray For Courage
Ask for Patience; Dare not unless thee expect a lesson.

Illuminate The Path

Illuminate the path with the light of love
Try to always be grateful and know you have enough
The path which is walked at times will be rough
Find comfort in knowing that you will rise above

There are those who spend all of their time
Searching and seeking for the meaning of life
Trying to find answers in a facade of lies
The meaning is simple when you learn to open your eyes

Who I am kidding, its really not that simple
Not when you feel lost and nothing is ample
But are you really lost or just outside of the temple
The presence of faith allows the mind to be hopeful

A life without love is like a flower without sun
Without the light the hope of blooming is done
But with the rain and light the process has begun
Grow the mind with love and watch how it runs....

The Waterfall

The Waterfall

Remember when we use to dance

To the beat of house within the trance

Long ago in another place and time

Young and naïve; lives were blind

We grew up we faced this life

Enjoyed the journey amongst the strife

Loved our way through the blindness

Learning how to show random acts of kindness

Day by day I have watched your body slowly die

I can't count the amount of tears I've cried

But you taught me so much my dear friend

And that is why I will be with you beyond the end

When you pass over you will finally be home

Your body lies but your soul will roam

Freely through the garden, heaven awaits

I can't wait to see you again at the pearly gates

Meet me at the waterfall, we will reminisce

About the journey we've lived, the girls we have kissed

I hope that you come visit us from time to time

Know that after you passed I was truly fine

For your body died but you lived on forever

I will carry you through all that I endeavor

I love Rich with all that my heart has to give

And I will be forever grateful for the life that you lived…
