A Citizen’s Responsibility.

Tags

Being responsible, citizen, Doing the right thing, Poetry by Yu/stan/kema., working toward unification

Will there be anyone

Who will stand and fight

To save this great Country

And do what is right?

Will there be anybody

To stop all the lies

And keep hatred from growing

In front of our eyes.

Will men who are silent

Step forward and do

The things to unite us

And protect what is true?

It is time to lay down

The rancor and fear,

Stop all of the blaming,

And gather us near.

It is time to accept

What is real and what’s fair

Before we destroy

What we cannot repair.

Dichotomies In Life.

Tags

childbirths, Christ dying for us., Dichotomies, droughts, Found in life, Free from sin., hardships, Joy, Poetry by Yu/stan/kema., sadness

There will always be hardships

That cause us great pain,

And droughts that will test us

Before we see rain.

There will always be childbirths

Filled with our screams

Before we are brought

The child of our dreams.

We often are given

Good things with the bad.

We cry tears of joy and

We cry when we’re sad.

When Christ died for us

To set us all free,

It gave me great joy

And left sadness in me.

A Part Of Family.

Tags

A gift from God., Adding a family member., family, Giving acceptance., Poetry by Yu/stan/kema., Promising to protect and teach a new family member.

An angel was sent from Heaven.

She was born and brought to our door.

Her cheeks were smooth and rosy.

She was all we were hoping for.                               

She blessed us with her arrival.

We saw Heaven within her eyes.

We held her in a warm blanket.

God sent us a sweet surprise.

We all gathered close around her,

And we promised to keep her safe,

To teach her of Love and Truth,

And how to have a strong Faith.

We knew from the moment we saw her,

She would always and forever be

A part of our hearts and lives,

An important part of our family.

The Things Life Brings

Tags

Article and poetry by Yu/stan/kema., Lessons we learn., life, things we get.

We travel through this world

with hope and expectations,

and each of us grew up

with our own preconceptions.

Life happens to us all

and brings good things and bad.

We’ve had moments of laughter

and tears when we were sad.

We’ve learned from those with wisdom,

made mistakes when we’re alone,

and kept repeating messages

our parents had sown.

We reached out to each other

with intentions that were real.

We believed what they were saying,

and how it made us feel.

We looked forward to the future,

and we soothed each others woes.

We accepted imperfections and

we made it through the lows.

But people change much quicker

than we can really see,

and they seem to out-grow us

as we’re left with misery.

We learn there are lessons

in life that leave a sting.

We never can predict

what the years will bring.

Giving Up Relationships

Because you’ve had enough.

Positive thoughts no longer work

And emotions can’t be stuffed.

The heart can only take so much

Until it breaks in two,

And mending is impossible

No matter what you do.

You think they will come around

And be like they once were,

But hurtful actions that they do

Cause heartaches to occur.

Love needs lots of nourishment,

Attention, and respect.

It grows with time and thoughtfulness

And the absence of neglect.

Even when you want to try,

You need to walk away,

Before you lose your dignity,

And self-respect one day.

Dealing With Difficult Decisions.

Sometimes, it is easier                                 

to just let it go,

the thing that keeps you up at night

and overwhelms you so.

 

It sadly never gets resolved

and tends to come again.

When triggers from the past arise,

you feel you just can’t win.

 

Sometimes you can problem-solve

and come up with a plan

that leads to resolution or

“You’ve done all you can.”

 

When it is bigger than yourself,

you come to realize

you’ve tried all you know to do

and seek Him who is wise.

 

You must admit you need some help

and swallow your pride.

Then you give it all to God,

and let true peace inside.

We Are A Part Of Eternity.

Everybody needs someone., facebook photos;, Pinterest, Pinterest photo-sacredspirit.files.wordpress.com., Poems and songs can keep us alive., poetry by Yu/stan/kema, Survivors are strong., We all need interactions., We are a part of eternity.

We are the strong survivors

Who walk through a barren land.

We’ve learned how to keep on moving 

When we are too tired to stand.

Found on Pinterest on 11-13-17, on facebook;.sacredspirit.files.wordpress.com

People think, we don’t need others, 

But the opposite is true.

There are times we need somebody

Who can just see us through.

For the world is full of sorrow

And the road get’s hard to climb.

We can all be made stronger

By reading a heart-felt rhyme.

A song has the power to heal

When the soul has lost its way,

And struggles to believe in goodness

At the end of a difficult day.

God made us to be interactive,

And gave us the power to see,

We all are a part of the universe.

We are one with eternity.

We Must Decide.

Tags

Honesty or lies, Human life or greed;, Making decisions, Poetry by Yu/stan/kema., Resolving problems or winning;, To build or destroy;

These are trying times, my friend,

And they give us pause for reflection.

We are exhausted from hearing the lies

From those stealing our elections.

 

We are shocked and disgusted

By the spinning of  facts,

The stories of made-up fiction,

And repeated illegal acts.

 

What is needed is a new start

In bringing the races together,

To resolve and find a way to achieve

Equal justice and rights forever.

 

We need to unite and help each other

Stay safe from a virus that kills,

Have respect for the value of human life,

And stop greed from hurting us, still.

 

We can use this precious moment in time

To build a better tomorrow,

Clean up this toxic environment,

And create jobs in our sorrow.

 

We must decide in the days to come

Whether to build or destroy

Our Nation as we struggle to rise

To reflect destruction or God’s glory.

Never Give Up.

Never give up on being hopeful, 

 For the soul needs hope to survive. 

It’s what keeps you ever moving 

When you are treading to stay alive.

Never give up on loving another,

Even when love is not returned.

Love takes time to enter the heart

Of a life that’s been horribly ruined.

Never give up believing in God,

When He seems so far away.

It’s when you need Him the most,

You must take time to pray.

Never give up  on finding peace.                                             

You’ll find it waiting inside.

It comes when you reach acceptance

Found on Facebook Timeline on 7-24-17. Country and Farm Photography. Taken by Carolyn Anderson.

And let go of your foolish pride.

The things of this world distract us 

From reaching our highest goals.

We’ll find in silence and nature

A way to nurture our souls.

                        

When a soul is nurtured and peaceful,

It is filled with an endless love;

And it seeks to connect those in need

With a merciful God above.

Accepting our differences, Creating a future with others., Photo Quote: Dalai Lama., Pinterest photo-Helping hands., poetry by Yu/stan/kema, Reaching out to others., We all need somebody.

Reach out your hand.

I’ll reach out mine too.

Go and get your neighbors.

We will all make it through.

 

Whatever else happens

In this land that I love,

We must remember

What we are capable of.                                       

Found on Pinterest on 2-9-16. Helping hands. Dalai Lama.

 

See the man on the corner

In need of some food?

Don’t ask if he’s worthy.

Change your attitude.

 

If a black man passes

You on the street,

Just nod, say,”Good morning.”

There’s no need for defeat.

 

Reach out with a hand

To the Muslims and Jews.

We are searching for answers

In the religions we choose.

 

There’s no need in proving

Who’s right or who’s wrong.

Let’s encourage each other

By sharing our songs.

 

For by loving our neighbors

And doing what’s right,

We’ll create a future

That’s hopeful and bright.
