Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Once one's own actions,
Have been accepted to acknowledge...
That unexplained negativity,
One creates...
...

When the Creator speaks,
And those who choose to walk in faith...
Stop to meditate and concentrate,
On that message being delivered...
...

Not to take commitment ceremonies,
Seriously.
Or feel them felt deeply,
In the exchanging of vows...
...

So much more there is to life.
To love.
With appreciation.
And just to like.
...

All things were finalized.
And then the people realized,
Their self-indulgence had them enclosed.
But too late,
...

If people wanted their exceptions made,
To rules created to instill discipline.
With expectations they be followed.
And obeyed to be given strict attention.
...

Up and down with it,
A hold on love.
Up and down with it,
The feeling it gives.
...

Observing an inflicted self destruction,
Of those who destroyed with intent...
Family members and friendships,
With deceptions done relentlessly.
...

When people begin to connect,
The affects their actions have on others...
To accept what they get in return,
Lessons will be learned to never forget.
...

How do you intend to deliver your speech?
With it done uninterrupted,
And attention given to you successfully?
Aren't you expecting to offend,
...
