Enjoy!!!Choose To Be Happy By Marlene Rose Choose to be happy, Choose to feel great, Choose not to let things make you irate.I know that some people are not feeling great, And I know that some people just know how to hate. And I wish that all people could be healthy and strong, And I wish that all people would just get along.If wands could be waved,  and the world would be cured, Id wave that big wand, you can be assured. But Ill do what I can every day I am here, And try to remember the good, year to year.And I choose to be happy, And I choose to feel great, And I choose not to let things make me irate!Reincarnation By Wallace McCraeWhat does Reincarnation mean? A cowpoke asked his friend. His pal replied, It happens when Yer life has reached its end. They comb yer hair, and warsh yer neck, And clean yer fingernails, And lay you in a padded box Away from lifes travails.The box and you goes in a hole, Thats been dug into the gr ound. Reincarnation starts in when Yore planted neath a mound. Them clods melt down, just like yer box, And you who is inside. And then yore just beginnin on Yer transformation ride.In a while, the grassll grow Upon yer rendered mound. Till some day on yer moldered grave A lonely flower is found. And say a hoss should wander by And graze upon this flower That once wuz you, but nows become Yer vegetative bower.The posy that the hoss done ate Up, with his other feed, Makes bone, and fat, and muscle Essential to the steed, But some is left that he cant use And so it passes through, And finally lays upon the ground This thing, that once wuz you.Then say, by chance, I wanders by And sees this upon the ground, And I ponders, and I wonders at, This object that I found. I thinks of reincarnation, Of life and death, and such, And come away concludin: Slim, You aint changed, all that much.'Life Is By Mother TeresaLife is an opportunity; benefit from it. Life is a beauty; admire it. Life is a dream; realize it. Life is a challenge; meet it. Life is a duty; complete it. Life is a game; play it. Life is a promise; fulfill it. Life is sorrow; overcome it. Life is a song; sing it. Life is a struggle; accept it. Life is a tragedy; confront it. Life is an adventure; dare it. Life is luck; make it. Life is life; fight for it!The Handwriting On The WallA weary mother returned from the store, Lugging groceries through the kitchen door. Awaiting her arrival was her 8 year old son, Anxious to relate what his younger brother had done.While I was out playing and Dad was on a call, T.J. took his crayons and wrote on the wall! Its on the new paper you just hung in the den. I told him youd be mad at having to do it again.She let out a moan and furrowed her brow, Where is your little brother right now? She emptied her arms and with a purposeful stride, She marched to his closet where he had gone to hide.She called his full name as she entered his room. He trembled with fearhe knew that m eant doom! For the next ten minutes, she ranted and raved About the expensive wallpaper and how she had saved.Lamenting all the work it would take to repair, She condemned his actions and total lack of care. The more she scolded, the madder she got, Then stomped from his room, totally distraught!She headed for the den to confirm her fears. When she saw the wall, her eyes flooded with tears. The message she read pierced her soul with a dart. It said, I love Mommy, surrounded by a heart.Well, the wallpaper remained, just as she found it, With an empty picture frame hung to surround it. A reminder to her, and indeed to all, Take time to read the handwriting on the wall.As the Day Goes by Jennifer JohnsonChoices and wrong turns are made, as the day goes and the sun fades. People are loved and hearts are broken, as the day goes and words are spoken. Smiles and frowns are shown on faces, as the day goes and children play in open spaces. Happiness and sadness are felt by all, as the day go es and night falls. Tears of joy and tears of pain are shed, as the day goes and all are in bed.Dont QuitWhen things go wrong as they sometimes will; When the road youre trudging seems all uphill; When the funds are low, and the debts are high; And you want to smile, but you have to sigh; When care is pressing you down a bit Rest if you must, but dont you quit.Success is failure turned inside out; The silver tint of the clouds of doubt; And you can never tell how close you are; It may be near when it seems afar. So, stick to the fight when youre hardest hit Its when things go wrong that you mustnt quit.Have a favorite poem? Please share in the comments!
