friendship, love,
Secrets blowing in the wind
Another gift, another lift
Words whispered from the soul
Echoing in the chamber of my heart
Looking ahead to the dreams we'll have
It's what we believe in
No turning back
Chosen ----- Frozen
Lost in love
Lost in life
Wiping away all the tears
Soothing all our fears
Together our friendship
will survive the test of time

We fell in love and married young,
others said we couldn’t know.
Who else could truly know my heart,
or which way I should go?
We all must choose the path to walk,
and how we’ll live each day.
It makes no difference the choice we make,
if we take God along our way.
All our challenges will be lessons learned,
he can make it a perfect day.
Others may snicker and laugh at us,
it doesn’t matter what they may say.
God teaches us through every test,
and after struggles he gives us rest.

humor, silly,
Recently learned the word malaprop, didn't want to dally on this something silly, cheers dilly
The dust flew off the top of the sealant fan
Frantically I started to clean my barns out
I swept it quickly up in my little dust pan
Worked up quite a thirst, without a drought
I spot checked with a test of the right glove
Everything finally seeming so slick and span
Until in the room walked the life of my love
And he turned on that damned dusty fan
I screamed and yelled from the tip of my lung
And passed a list of chores called honey poo
Is that what it's called? it's on the top of my tongue
Swept up all the dust again, that's what my honey do

lust,
In the Catholic Schools of the West
All students are put to a test
Their head must go South
With an open mouth
To measure who comes off the best
A priest is never too fickle
An Adam's Apple to tickle
No need to repent
Its all Heaven-sent
The meek love sucking a pickle
Virile men should become a priest
So many are needed back East
Beneath every frock
Likes a ticking clock
Hungry mouths in need of a feast
The Bible predicts that a beast
Will plunder the Great and the Least
So you can do more
To even the score
When you serve this world as a priest!

love,
"there's a place for us"
one fine day words were written "there's a place for us"
on this fine day such words stand true and the test of time
spending memorable moments with you will always be right
my hand you take and I follow to where love leads us both
drawn by force we stand together under heaven and light

passion, sorry, teen
"Sorry" doesn't cut it.
Well neither does a butter knife.
I guess I'll have to say "sorry"
For being in your life.
"Sorry" for being black.
And doing what i do best.
Like RAP, BASKETBALL and SWEAT.
Instead of studying for a test.
"Sorry" for being imperfect
"Sorry" for getting sick
"Sorry" for being a man
"Sorry" for makin' you tick
There are some things you cannot change
Like color and heredity.
There's one thing I forgot to say.
"Sorry" for bein' me.

This is sort of a sarcastic poem. I love me. :)

appreciation, fathers day,
We have a laugh, and drink a beer,
Play some golf, and hunt for deer.
Your patience and wisdom, is without test,
Your confidence and clarity, is at its best.
Mentor and Dad, is what you are,
Saved and glad, your faith will go far.
I’m thankful and blessed, with a father like you,
Proud at its best, for the little things that you do.
Love and care, are words that I say,
Friendship to share, on Happy Father’s Day!

break up, confidence, courage, funny love, grief, growing up, happiness,
why seek true love
when even the truest love is fleeting
the thing you should desire is
for lasting love to transpire
take my hand and hold your breath
this is a love test
do you have a single doubt
about how it will turn out
are you afraid they will leave
and how you could possibly grieve
worry no more the stress will disappear
and just send this to your sweet dear
because it's over they never really let you near
it is fact they are being clear they don't want you here
take your love and disappear don't live in fear

depression
I love you GOD
But I do not understand
When is it that you will let this pain
Come to an end!
I tried to end it myself
But you wouldnt let me
Wh the hell do you continue to test me!!
Im not strong
My body and soul are weak
I have nothing
Im obsolete
Ive failed its over God
I tried my best
But its done
And I do not wish to retest

slam, me, me,
My breaking point
has been reached
one wrong look is
gonna end in bloodshed
I'm a ticking time bomb
come test me
I'll leave you in pieces
believe me this
when it comes down to
you or me
we both already know the answer
so step up or step off
because I would love to
destroy you

appreciation, character,
Aries must learn danger with their own toddler test.
Taurus grasp emotions from the feel in their chest.
Geminis find knowledge a pleasure to digest.
Cancers thrive in a neat, loving family nest.
Leos strive to lead using their praiseworthy best.
Virgos shelve their dreams for duties that sternly pest.
Libras view couple love as perfect life's peak crest.
Scorpios forget naught, but hide all in mind's vest.
Sag needs outdoor adventure per their soul’s request.
Capricorns see love professed safe from cruel jest.
Aquarians hear their own drum and march with zest.
Pisces bear any news without shock or unrest.

funny love,
Is it still true love or true lies?
We're not as devoted to each other
as we used to be
It's like you're not as crazy anymore
about me
I try by all means to meet thee
meet thee halfway
but what I see
I see you're pushing me away
Now I wonder if
Is it still true love or true lies
because each and everyday
our relationship slowly dies
Perhaps this is all a test
It is a test, right?
If so I will not rest
not rest until I make things right
Make things the best
the best again
Make them not true lies
but true love again.

faith, forgiveness, life, time, me, allah, me,
I am a human with original sin, that came
from the apple when man and woman bit in.
I'm angry with myself at having betrayed You,
I should slither on the ground as the
serpent must now do
But Your love is kind and merciful always
willing to forgive
And I'm standing here before You, for You, I
want to live
Cleanse me of these heartless sins and make
my soul look clean
I want to be absolved of all; even the unseen
I'd like to walk with You, Allah (Lord), I
want to hold your hand,
For You to pick me up, and for me to
understand
I know it only takes a few words for all
this to be done
The devil tried to test me, and I know now
that You've won.

Hush, my dear mother, say no more
(Shut up your criticizing, out the door)
I know you love me, want my best,
(You’re putting my temper to an acid test)
I’m trying Jenny Craig, I know I’ll win
(Your suggestions are tantamount to starvation sin!)
Hush, my dear mother, say no more.

The Fire burneth while our world turneth
yet the rose still holds it's red bloom
The mighty Oaks stand majestic and tall
while man's glory hardly rates a call
The cold Wind bloweth so surely we know
angels bleach the whiteness in the snow
The Forest lives to give beauty and art
wildlife and earthly souls stand far apart
The Sky singeth and the sweet earth reflects
Natures beauty opposite man's many defects
The Soul endures and stays the greatest test
that prove kindness and love serve us best

Test are made to determine what you know,
How you react, and what you are made of,
Even though some test will give you a shove,
Directing you where you might need to go.
At some point in time, you will have to grow
Instincts, that will elevate you above
Levels of hate that overshadow love.
You have the power to take any blow!
Right or wrong, these test will come with a grade.
Easy or hard, these test must be taken.
Progress is something that has to be made,
Or else your future will be forsaken.
Rest assured, some kind of price will be paid.
Time for your inner strength to awaken.

age, desire, destiny, emotions, first love, heart, love,
When last we spoke
An image came
This latest journey
The latest challenge
That will test
The strength of
Our RESOLVE to
Build upon the love
Begun long ago
Now re-inspired
Hesitant at first like the
Faltering steps of a foal in spring
Struggling to stand
Kicking up its heels
Now thundering hoofbeats
Racing toward an
Ever closer
finish line
Two hearts then
Pierced
By arrows from
A Cupid’s bow
Souls now merged by
Love in overflow

O 'morrow be here now,
so I could see that 'morrow's smile,
and 'morrow's lips be waiting less,
instead of waiting more for 'morrow's test.
O 'morrow be here now,
where eyes of day be open night,
and have no fear of if they might;
see 'morrow's love be out of sight.

Yoga had me do the plow
Twist my spine I just said how
Reset my spine feet overhead
To calm myself inside instead
To be so calm when drama’s rise
A symptom of complete surprise
My temper better held in check
Yoga has my just respect
My Yoga headstand is the best
I see it as my simple test
So natural normal once and then
Have done before and will again.
Don Johnson 30-4-11
Yes Yoga is the exercise
makes you flexible true
i must make time if i'm half wise
fore my bones get black n blue
thank you Caroline we agree Yoga does instill
the calmness flexibility, so im less over the hill")

Love Sonnet
The old heart flame that gets us in the groove,
comes when we hear or see the one we love.
It makes us hop to feet and start to move,
like nothing on this earth or ere above.
We choose it over all from first till last,
and hope the love turns out for utmost best.
But love that fires too quick burns up too fast,
and time is still the one and true fine test.
For hearts on one accord it’s a great thing.
Now all can open up and hold their “Hon.''
To those who share it hits its height in spring,
a tide of passion, glee and just plain fun
When love and old flames often come to mind,
one stops and smiles to think of that fond time.

If u look into my eyes you will find
my past and future flying by
if u look in my heart you will see
a young girl striving for her destiny
if you dare try my patience you've been warned
the last nerve had past away a long ways ago
when I write my stories - my poems I strive
for the reader to understand why
people think the way they do
and nobody's weird just different then you
look into the stars and past the black sky
and do yourself a favor and strive
for what is rightly yours
because when you do you'll search and find
the rightly inheritance that god left behind
look beyond the words and rhymes
you'll find a gift that will withstand the test of time
which is
love

“ Heads down, Begin your test, If you don’t understand just raise your hand.
Continue to listen, percentage is given.
Black or blue all this is true, no matter what I had, I want you. Take your time to read and evaluate every situation or distractions as they come and you will start to see what your smile and laugh really does to someone.
Thick or thin you are the most addicting thing,
Kiss or cuddle your my type of trouble,
close or far I have never fell this hard. Distance to time apart I’ll always give you my other half.

Sex is just the icing,
Isn’t the whole package,
So much more enticing.
But problems do arise
When all the baggage arrives
Into play. It is better if all is
Laid to rest but that is
The ultimate test. At times
It can be such a pest,
And cause so much stress.
It will turn into a
Whole mess for one another,
Unless they learn to
Lean on each other.
To also know the difference
Between love and just pleasure.
The body and mind
Will not know.
The heart and soul
Will surely take its toll.

devotion, husband, love,
Dark days are coming, darling;
Dark days are on our horizon.
A test of our love-
they'll try to tap our strength.
Keep your eyes steady with mine,
and above all, refuse their light.
I sit here alone,
yet our fingers intertwine.
