The Perfect Peace Of Poetry!

My poetry stays on my mind, just like a faithful friend,
And so I write for all Mankind until my life must end,
Though I used to watch the telly, and check the papers, too,

And wish I'd taken notes.

Some Of Us Are Good At Sums!

I use my fingers and my thumbs,
At times when I must do my sums,
To calculate the best I can,
Although, of course, I'm not a fan.

How Heavy Was The Jesus Cross?

How heavy was the Jesus Cross, those men forced Christ to bear?
That fateful Cross despised because of pains Christ had to share,
That sapped His strength upon His path to Calvary and death,
To end up as His epitaph, Jesus of Nazareth?

Stargirl!

Until their destiny begins and has to overrule,
And then things change, when truths get told, when secrets come to light,
When plans and schemes and dreams unfold each passing day and night.
