Deep sadness moves inside me               

Found on Pinterest on 6-4-16. Sarah.

for the world is full of sorrow.

Inside me is uncertainty

about a good tomorrow.

 

I hear the cries of children

filled with hunger and pain

as they stay in cages 

in a world gone insane.

 

There is so much sickness

and people are dying.

Our leaders shut their eyes

and keep on denying.

 

The Government engages in

out-right discrimination,

People wanting equal rights

protest and have frustration.

Found on Pinterest on 2-9-16. Helping hands.

 

Many have lost their jobs

and need a helping hand. 

Don’t shame them as they ask. 

Just try and understand.               

       

Rise up men of courage

and work to make this right.

Help those who are hungry.

Remove a burden tonight. 

 

To make a better world,

we must act to make it so.

Do constant acts of kindness

before the cold winds blow.

 

United we can conquer

the sadness and despair

of a world that is hurting

by showing that we care.

Daddy's girl, Father's Day, Pinterest photo- Father and daughter., Poetry by Yu/stan/kema.

More men need to know                                 

Found on Pinterest on 6-17-17.

The importance they share

In the life of  a daughter

Who needs a dad’s care.

 

They need a strong man

Who is tender and true,

Who will teach them to value

The good that they do.

 

She needs his protection,

His thoughtful advice,

A  fair critic to teach her

How to be wise.

 

He needs to respect

Her body as hers,

To value her self

With a love that endures.

 

For a father must cherish

The trust of his daughter,

And come to her rescue

With life-giving water.

 

A father and daughter

Are a formidable pair.

Strength and compassion

Will always be there.

-Yu/stan/kema-

Eternal Life., Facebook timeline photo- from Mindfulness., Helping others., lifes purpose, love, Poetry by Yu/stan/kema.

 

All the light we cannot see,

The measure of eternity

Lie behind heaven’s gate

And like most, we must wait.

 

Found on Mindfulness and Facebook time line.

There is work to be done                                            

Before the setting of the sun.

We must find our purpose here

And lose the things we hold most dear.

 

Christ appeared to set us free,

But paid the cost at Calvary.

He did not have a painless life.

He dealt with so much endless strife.

 

He persevered despite the jeers,

Fulfilled His purpose through the years,

Gave us life forever more,

And gave us wings so we could soar.

 

We have gifts from God to give

that can improve the will to live

Of weary souls who’ve had enough

And find it hard to still be tough.

 

We need to remember well

God’s message we must always tell:

Love is our purpose here on earth 

And life eternal through Christ’s birth. 

-Yu/stan/kema-

“The Rhodora,” by Ralph Waldo Emerson and quote from Yu/stan/kema.

beauty, flowers, Poem- The Rhodora., Poetry of Ralph Waldo Emerson., Quotation by Yu/stan/kema., Rhodora

 

” This poem is very descriptive and beautiful in catching all the ways a flower is special and full of beauty. There is an amount of tenderness in how he gently puts words to the sheer loveliness of its bloom. I can almost see him caressing its petals with a finger. Ralph Waldo Emerson  knew its value as a flower when he wrote: ‘Beauty is its own excuse for being.’ 

The heart indeed, craves what it needs. The soul needs beauty in order to survive the heartbreaks in life.”    Yu/stan/kema

 

THE RHODORA

In May, when sea-winds pierced our solitudes,                                

I found the fresh Rhodora in the woods,

Spreading the leafless blooms in a damp nook,

To please the desert and the sluggish brook.

The purple petals, fallen in the pool,

Made the black water with their beauty gay;

Here might the redbird come his plumes to cool,

And court the flower that cheapens his array.

Rhodora! if the sages ask thee why

This charm is wasted on the earth and sky,

Tell them, dear, that if eyes were made for seeing,

Then Beauty is its own excuse for being:

Why thou wert there, O rival of the rose!

I never thought to ask, I never knew:

But, in my simple ignorance, suppose

The self-same Power that brought me there brought you.

-RALPH WALDO EMERSON-
