“I apologize”

I apologize...!

{This poem is in our book ArtUReady?}

Set the Guy Free

He wants to please you but doesn’t know how

He missed training from a Godly father, allow him to learn

He is afraid to be a father, his earthly father disappointed him

He doesn’t want to appear weak to you, encourage him

Try to hear what he is saying to you (hear his heart)

He is trying to communicate

He would rather run than seem incapable

He would lie than ask you for help

He would rather falsely pacify his problems than reveal them to you

He would rather pretend nothing is wrong before he confesses his sin to you

Be his friend and he will trust you

Prove him, validate him, watching for blindness, change and production

Human and flawed, but set him free

Free him from shame and the unknown; allow his heart to believe

If he belongs to you, keep him safe, protected and in peace!

It’s Time

(The ladies in his dust)

Hear the clarion voice crying out, the pain of the child damaged, destructed and destroyed.  It’s time to break the silence of the victims and sound the trumpet of charge to save our children.  We are on the move marching and redeeming the dreamers and stopping the villains from another sexual conquest.

Innocence, virginity, safety and protection is not for sale.  Corporations your brand, reputation and profits are stripes on the backs of our girls, when you harbor these perpetrators.  Arrest your greed and ease your conscience; turn them in.  They are not “Baby Dolls” to be exploited, maimed and damaged for sexual pleasure.

Molester, now is the time to “repent and turn from your wicked ways.”

Stop thinking about yourself and your twisted fetish.  Please have a thought and compassion for your victim, get help and reform.

Otherwise, danger:  the next future in jeopardy is yours.

A Golden Gate

Where your heart belongs

City lights, fog, music and charm hang in air

Tech, hills and fashion

Foodies, Friends and Trolleys

Entertainment is your companion and art your dress

Seafood, the wharf and a bridge to the world

Destination, home, recreation and career

Personality, unique and attracting

“The city by the Bay”

A Divided Heart

A divided heart is a puzzle unsolved. Broken in spirit and compassion. “Guard your heart,” and speak with unity in thought, the pulse of the expression of your affection. Claim and address the purity of the center of your life source. Give splendidly, with honesty, in priority and true love. The reward is extraordinary!
