Member Poem

Are you One?

1

You come into people's lives
Bringing negative vibes
Do you realize what you do
Is a big taboo.

You have jealousy at your side
With greed just beside
Murder in your eyes
You're cold as ice.

It's never too late
If you start today
To bring out the good,
know you could.

~|~

2

Try to be happy
I know it ain't easy
If to be negative is your daily way
Watch out what they will say.

To frown is not nice
It could break ties
Associates, family and friends
It could all be the end.

Saying not is not bad at all
But said in jest you might fall
To a bad habit you may call
To negativity it takes its toll.

~|~

3

Chances are you don't see clear
coz your eyes filled with tears
The life you live is filthy
Because your whole being is guilty

Wipe those tears away
There is a better way
To see your life ahead
With a clear conscience and head

Do it while you still can
To be a better man
Now before it's too late
Get up and don't you wait.

~|~

4

Guilt is a feeling not worth living
It consumes your whole being
Tear it and throw it down
Before you sink and drown

Ease up and be free
Not tied up to a tree
Rid yourself of that feeling
By facing and saying.

What error you have done
To the person you have gone
Ask for forgiveness today
Make it right, 'coz there's no other way.

~|~

5

If you're so depressed
Get up and get dressed
Stepping out of your foul mood
Will surely bring you much good.

Friends dear and true
Will be there when you're blue
To make you smile
Even for a while.

Think of a happy time
That will make you feel fine
Be sure to give love
To receive blessings from above.

~|~

6

Approval you seek
From friends and family you keep
Not knowing where you're going
Only for their push you're hoping.

Everyday for 365 days
You keep looking for their ways
For the smile on their faces
When they serve you their aces.

Watch out who you might be
For you are blinded you can't see
That you had become like them
Not knowing your true life you never learn.

~|~

7

If you ever favor one child
Be sure forever stay by your side
For one day when you need
Your favorite child might leave

But don't look very far
Cause you know you are
Loved by your children
As promised in heaven

For the Bible teach
To honor your father and mother
That God's blessings may enrich
Your life further and farther.

~|~

8

Never let fear lead you by the nose
Be aware that you are the host
Of Christ spirit in your body
Know you can face anybody.

Always confront fear by the face
Even if you are amaze
By its power and force
You need to ride it like a horse.

It may take a lot of nerves
A lot of time you'll have
To see through fear
Whenever it's near.

GREED

Hey! Do you love for money?
Willing to be a honey
Be careful for out of nowhere a nice girl one day
May end your evil way.

Don't ever think that you'll always win
You will have tears to begin
when fate laughs at you
For crying is all you'll do.

Next time you think of love
always think of a dove
That flies away so leave money out of your mind
all you'll say, cause it ain't mine.

~|~

What do you see in money?
Don't you think it's funny?
That it drives you crazy
Even without it you can live so easy.

People you fight and hurt
Animosity you spurt
All because of greed
And the pride you feed.

Wealth you try hard to keep
Piles and piles you heap
One day will be left on earth
As you lay yourself in dirt.

~|~

Spending more than you have
Will not make you save
For the rainy day
When things don't go your way.

Keep your sight on the ground
Never, never frown
If you don't own
Other people's crown.

If you pursue the jones mode
You will find yourself in the road
To worries and total bankruptcy
That you refuse to see.

~|~

Little do you know
That you have a big ho
Beside your name
You're a big shame.

Glitters in her eyes that shine
You gave for her to feel fine
Now she's gone after you
Have none with nothing to chew.

Avoid women who fall
For blings and all
Run, if you must
And see her as a big dust.

~|~

You think money control everything
Well, you got one thing coming
If you believe it is the all
Watch out when you fall.

You say what is love
That money should be above
Even when family and friends
Find their hopes lost at the end

You refuse to help
Even with all the yelp
You hold on to what you own
Your face turned away from the moan

~|~

Your green eyes looks scary
Covered and blurry
Needing to have everything
Even though it seems nothing.

Cover those eyes I plead
Before you're consumed by greed
Not everything can be yours
Says the man next door.

Be glad with what you have
So you can be saved
With the little you share
God is always fair.

~|~

Pray if you will
But if your eyes steal
Beware of the consequences
If you lose all your senses.

Open your eyes to the beautiful sight
and close your eyes in the peaceful night
Be happy with what you have
Even if you live inside a cave.

Do not eye what is not yours
You might not finish the course
Remember, you may want but not need
take note and take heed.

JEALOUSY

Why hate me when I flourish
Happy when I'm sluggish
Lay stumbling block for me to fall
May they be big or small.

Laugh at me when I fail
My success you never hail
Looking always for a way
To keep me far down away.

Pushing me to the wrong direction
Is your way to show affection
When I don't take your advice
You'll say I'm not wise.

~|~

When today, you see yourself
With the hurts and pains you felt
Have you learned life lessons well
Or just waiting again to fail.

Life is not about how you feel
Sorry always at your heel
When all you do is to take
Even those you did not make.

How sad for you, I'll say
Peace of heart for you I pray
Think of all the things
And hurt to all you bring.

LAZY

Stop sitting pretty
I know it isn't easy
To man up and take risk
When you took everything with ease

I know you have a dream
Far off it may seem
But you need to get up
And take that big hop

For tomorrow may come too soon
Like in a day comes the moon
Your life may end in a well
Instead of hearing beautiful bells.

~|~

Lazy people does not achieve
For they do not ho and heave
What ants and worms could
For the queen and family they should

Up, up get to work
Food for your spoon and fork
For today will be the start of your future
Food on your table be for sure.

Love and respect you have
So try to be brave
When you give your best
And pass the test.

~|~

Do not think for a minute
People are here to get you out when you're in it
That they are always there to help you
All spoon fed and made easy for you to chew

Stand up and be counted
Get out and be tested
Don't wait for anyone to push your button
To see how well you have gone on

Be steadfast
As you run the lifetime dash
head on the highway
and finish the race the right way.

~|~

Don't be lacking in things you do
Give it all for God and you
Sure success will come
To you and some.

Looking to God is all
You need not fall
Even through all the hardships
You will be blessed like a white sheep.

Remember to work hard
Never to be sad
When all have been said and done
Smile, you have won.

~|~

Do not stay lazy
Your life has been hazy
Wake up and smell the coffee
Before it's too late your life becomes blurry

get up and off the bed
Your life a negative red
Be on top and stay alert
Or stay as you are and wait till you'll get hurt

Never think life is easy
Don't you think it's funny
You need to work for the money
So you can take care of your body

~|~

Work, work you must
Why oh why you ask
Quit being lazy
Do something and be busy.

Begin to pick up your life
Start to be wise
Don't throw your life away
You have a lot coming your way.

Seek kind people to help you
Ask them and they will too
But most of all
You should heed this call.

~|~

Don't waste your time doing nothing
that should make you go and going,
so seek and you shall see
Your life that was meant to be.

Beautiful and colorful
God made to be meaningful
For you and me to enjoy
This life filled with joy.

See the sunrise everyday
To make clear and bright your way
The path you walk is straight
So do not be afraid.

LIAR

If you think you can fool all
Watch out how you may fall
Not everyone you deal with
Will let you have your cake and have you eat it

Not everyone you call
Will want to see you at all
Some might want you to fail
Others would like to see you sail

So start to be a dear
To anyone you come near
By giving a bit of your smile
For sure it's worth your while.

~|~

Never close your eyes to the truth
Cause it may be too late to soothe
For someday it may poke your eyes
When you try looking up to the skies

Try to do what is right
Never fight it cause one day it might
Bring you to stand upright
With your head held up high

So next time you think
Doing something that stink
And you think you can get away
Try kneeling first and pray

~|~

Plastic people are meant to be
Even if they really see
Their foolish ways forever
With friends and foes together

Don't be a blind fool
And to think it's cool
To be in the company of men
Even if they're insane.

Avoid this kind
Be sure to use your mind
If you value your life
When choosing friends and wife.

~|~

Watch your heart
Not everyone who holds the cash is right
Try to open your eyes
To see their hearts cold as ice.

Don't let them manipulate you
And put you on queue
For them to abuse you
As they lay their money for you to chew.

Next your life is dictated
By their fake goodness you're fixated
Your life becomes tangled
As your life becomes money angled.

~|~

Stop fooling people
When you want to do good at all
Be truthful with your way
coz all will see through what you say.

Your lies may pass one time
And you think it's fine
When people find you're untrue
Forever they will be mad at you.

False people come together
Holding hands forever
coz they have one thing in common
For bad vibes they summon.

~|~

Teach them to fish
But if they refuse your offer of peace
Know that they are piranhas
Devouring everything as they pass

Beware of these people
Looking pitiful and all
They come in droves
Wanting you to be involve.

They’ll let you help till you bleed
Because these people mislead
Know how to avoid this sick part
Is to think with your heart.

~|~

Always speak the truth
For it will bear fruit
coz people will trust you
Your whole life through

Your life may not be perfect
But blessings you didn't expect
Will bring joy and happiness
And take away your sadness.

Stay away from foul mouthed people
Who speaks and only know evil
Better keep to yourself
If you think they wouldn’t or couldn't help.

~|~

Your word is as important
To be who you want
People to believe you
To treat you with respect too.

Never say anything for the sake of
Make that mistake your life is cut off
Be sure of your words
So you'll always be heard.

Your word with honor
Will be full of color
But utter a lie once
You are forever gone.

~|~

Today you said you lied
And I asked you why
You answered it's just your way
So you can lie another day.

You act as if you're cool
Making everyone a fool
Thinking that you're nice
When you hide your evil vice.

One day you'll get caught
All you'll say will mean naught
Then your face will turn red
When you would rather be dead.

PRIDE

You think being a loud mouth is cool
you only make yourself a fool
When you mouth how great you are
People around you just fart

Don't think for a minute
Those around you are in it
They laugh at what you say
Just because you pay

Be honest with yourself
That way people willing to help
And truly care
will really be there.

~|~

If people you offend
remain quiet and silent
beware of the consequence
You'll be shock and fallen

Watch out where you're going
With all you'll be saying
If you thought you're all knowing
You might end up shitting.

So from today onwards
No bad should come outwards
Of the mouth that God gave
so let's all be good and behave.

~|~

You think people are here for you
Then I believe you belong in the zoo
Know that you're here for them
Make God's purpose your aim.

If you live thinking only for your gain
Then you're insane
Well I'm sorry to say
For in the end, you'll have too much to pay.

Money comes and goes
so don't hold on too close
For one day when it breaks away
There is no one with you who'll stay.

~|~

If you think you know it all
Careful, you may fall
To try how to hide
Behind the mask of pride.

Why do you not succeed
You thought you planted the right seed
but lo and behold
You were not told

Your pride blinded you
You see with a different view
No matter if it is right
You fight it with all your might.

~|~

Stop being a brat
You might smell like a dead rat
Thinking you're entitled and deserving
To all eyes, you're nothing

Listen you might learn
On how you may earn
To give and get respect
From people whom you expect

Work hard and work best
Don't even try to do less
To God be the glory
Be patient, don't be in a hurry.

~|~

Who do you think you are
With your fat wallet and bling
Thinking you have come so far
When all you have is nothing

You show everyone your fake smile
Even though deep inside you cry
Why don't you take a while
And take a deep sigh...

Cause when the end comes
It's not what you have that counts
But what you have shared some
That true happiness is found.

~|~

Why be hard headed
When it can only lead to death
Why choose to be dead
When you can celebrate the beauty of the earth.

Reasons and logic dictates
That listening to love
Cancel all the aches
A loving heart is all it takes.

Listen, don't just hear
Beware of what you hold dear
Wake up for one day
They might all go away.

~|~

If putting down people
For you is quite simple
And you rejoice about the harm you do
watch out, it might be right back at you.

Watch your mouth when you speak
For your tongue maybe too quick
To judge people here and now
Even if it is false and foul.

Rise up from that illness
Before you become hopeless
Do not embrace crab mentality
Instead give love in totality.

~|~

Gratitude is not learned in school
Nor from a fool
Being grateful is a virtue
Fine and good for you.

Blessings and goodwill touch
Those with grateful hearts
Bringing smiles and joyful tears
Throughout the years.

Always give thanks to man and God
A teaching from the scriptures above
that had come with a promise
Everytime you make a wish.

~|~

Don't look back
At others wrong fact
Because people learn from their mistake
Which they created and make.

Let it go and let live
Help them while they heave
Don't pull them back
Into their old sack

One day when you face God
He will ask you what you got
You can only put your eyes down
For the lives you have intentionally made clown.

~|~

When you think you do good
As hard you try you should
Be careful and watch out
Not to show off and shout.

Do good because you care
No other reason if you dare
Out of love you shove
Your goodness if you have

Never mouth off what you did
Especially the poor you feed
For God who sees all
May watch you break and fall.

~|~

Don't be torn in half
Decide to do right if you must have
Don't just go with the flow
And later take the blow.

Doing what everybody does
Is the in thing, you jest
When people's approval is all
Your attention call.

You even push people to follow
Against their wishes they don't allow
The unique ones who fight you with all their might.
You smite.

~|~

Quit your fake ways
As you think you help others everyday
You may fool the people
But not me at all

You act like a pharisee
For all people to see
But with your other hand
You do evil when you can.

Yet you shout out with pride
Not even dare to hide
Your ways you always fool
People who thinks you're cool.

~|~

You remain haughty and proud
Opinionated always speaking out loud
Think of all that you say
coz one day you'll wake up and pay.

One day your voice may mean nothing
even if it has meaning
People you always talk behind
Will run away and hide.

Try to turn from that evil way
Watch out with what you say
About all you talk behind about
May one day make a roundabout.

~|~

Stop the debate about your faith
You will only be sowing hate
The way to capture their heart
Is to show that you're their part.

Never boast that you are right
You'll only get into a fight
People will see who you are
By being true and at par.

No need to convince
People will just follow you since
They see the true spirit of God
Without you trying too hard.

~|~

You think you give help
But you only shove it on the shelf
Only when the problem rears its ugly head
You'll know it was never dead.

Your help would have meant something,
had you seen it coming
But you refuse to open your eyes
And fake to be so nice.

Next time you lend a helping hand
Be kind to understand,
Better to teach them to earn
Than give alms for they will never learn.

~|~

How hardheaded can you be
You don't try, you don't see
Things you can do
So you can be happy too.

Dreams are to be achieved
If you only beseech
And seek proper guidance
Your journey won't have hindrance

Open your heart and see the truth
That you may receive the good fruit
At the end of your hard long days
Happiness accompany your ways

~|~

END
