Remembered

A nation born from war, for the “purpose” of establishing freedom
A nation divided in war, in an “attempt” to fulfill the goal of freedom
...

Twas in a restaurant they met,
Romeo and Juliet
He had no cash to pay the depth
So Rome-owed, what Julie-ate
...

Money! money! money! “who”, needs money?
Yeah right, - ask me another question honey-

From day one, - money rules our lives.
...

Poets, musicians, painters, sculptors, historians of all sorts,
Many express their feelings of war - in their work
...

Cherish each day as you go through life
...

Our world of so many modern conveniences
We were born to accept, and have taken for granted
Allow us to live our lives with very little inconveniences
In our minds, a feeling of aid has been implanted
...

With, television, movies, music, the internet and old
Fashion gossip
Where do the young find refuge to absorb all of this
High-tech?
...

Hurry! Hurry! Push and shove
No time to spare - for a little love

Be sure you do not arrive late for work
...

Another election coming around, politicians again are practicing
Their smile
They want our vote they’ll promise us the world will be at our
Command
...

What was accomplished with the destruction on that fatal day?
Another false ideology by those who claim to God they pray

No different than hypocrites in this country who respond with hate
...

I may not have the skip in my walk
Or the strength I once had as a lad.
However when I look at a star, it’s still
A discovery - I’ve yet! - To explain
...

As you go about each day
Take some time to laugh and play
...

Students have returned to schools
To face the challenge of new rules
...

Beauty is alive and all around us
Disguised with such - a distinct finesse

From the real we choose to display the
...

Schizophrenia, psychosis, manic behavior, of all sorts
Bipolar disorders, toped off with a great deal of depression
Not to mention neurosis, mind boggling illness, - which truly distorts
Keeps all these doctors of psychology, affluent, - in their professions
...

We march into war with the goal - of peace.
We are told we fight for freedom - and our right to believe.
However my neighbor, also has his perverted right to fleece
To take advantage of the week, this is his sole - belief.
...

Father forgive them! For they know not what they do!
.........

He died on the cross, for me - and for you
The son of God, - I know this to be true
...

The honesty we had as children, - in the process of growing
We spoke from our heart, all of our feelings - we were
Showing
...

Why have they come to take me away?
How have I misbehaved - to allow such dismay?

The doctor believes my mind is unstable-
...

The good and the bad we view on TV
We all live here together, in the land of the free

Hollywood decides who is good - and who is bad
...
