Stand

Stand
When all has failed
& you don't know what to do..
Just Stand.

When the storm is fierce
The river is raging
& you feel like it's drowning you
Just Stand.

When the bitter cold comes to steal your last breath......
Just Stand,
Knowing in your heart
This to shall pass

When the cold wind blows
& catches you in its snare
Be patient & know
That after the storm is over
You'll still be Standing there!

When the tears just keep running
& you can't utter a word
Just Stand
For This too
God has heard

When the burning fire roars
With plans to destroy all in sight
Just Stand

When the pain is unbearable
& you think your losing your mind
Just Stand.

Stand on the rock so powerful & true
Stand with all authority
& know that God loves you

Stand & be victorious
With all your faith & might
Stand child & let the spirit be

Just Stand there and know that God is with thee!

Can I Get My Mojo Back

Can I get my mojo back? You stole it a long time ago. Where you put it... I don't know. I looked in the closet and under the floor Or maybe you ran with it out the door. I checked the shower and linen closet I even checked the kitchen faucet My mojo is lost. What a shame! I know I am fine, but where's my game? Can I get my mojo back That umph, the it ...... I'm looking for That special something that shines so bright You know...... that shine, that rime, that appealing light. Mojo Oh mojo Where can you be I need you right now so candidly My looks are straight, my game not so tight I need you hear to make it all right. So please, So please I'm warning you.....Return my mojo before midnight! Copyright 2004

I Didn't Claim Poetry

Inspired my Amberly's Me Poem.....Amber, Thanks for the inspiration! I didn’t claim poetry Poetry claimed me It wrapped me up And seduced me At the tender age of three I didn’t claim poetry It claimed me It called my name While inside my mother’s womb It nurtured me And cuddled me And wrapped me up in its cocoon I write because of submission It is my therapy The only thing that allows Me to maintain my sanity I didn’t claim poetry Poetry claimed me With intoxication For words medication No need for translation It be my sedation I know no other way It is the ex-pression Of WHO I BE I live for it Die without it And strive to perfect it I be the muse To the ink The pen be the tool To express me Poetry is WHO I BE
