The Fool Is Keeping Company With A Wise Man

The fool speaks all his mind aloud

For everything he says he's proud

The wise first think and then they speak

They will be humble but not weak

The fool says this and that again

The wise man prays and says amen

The prideful man spoke a comment

He said it and seemed quite content

The wise man thought to answer back

He prayed this fool would get on track

And then he said with much concern

"If you don't change you'll surely burn"

Wrote this poem back in 2005 or so, there was more to it but the rest is not worthy to type.

Time

As I walk by the window eves

I see a tree with such green leaves

I know that time is passing by

Faster than a bird can fly

A day, a month, a year at last

It seems like just a day has past

The leaves are green, then red, then brown

At last they fall upon the ground

The trees now bare winter has come

The birds fly south to where the're from

(Except for some who are quite numb)

And now the spring time has arrived

The trees and flowers have revived

At once the heat of summers here

Let us pray we shalln't shed a tear

For God almighty reigneth here

Throughout all time the Saviour's near

If we just call to him sincere

This poem I wrote back around 2005-2006.

Until I Fly

Though It kill me or bring me pain
Still let me bring Glory to thy name
For myself I daresent live
All for the Lord Let me give

Pain in body or mind – O my what anguish!
Though all of it by Joy is vanquished
No matter what down here I've suffered
Into the Kingdom by faith I'm ushered

Your sight most Glorious I'll discover
When from this life of flesh I recover
Then as a spirit body I'll fly
Way way way, way up high
