Here are a few poems.. and here are a few more
- Donna Fargo
There is a voice inside of you
That whispers all day long
“I feel that this is right for me,
I know that this is wrong.”
No teacher, preacher, parent, friend
Or wise man can decide
What’s right for me-just listen to
The voice that speaks inside
Many people will walk in and out or your life,
but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
To handle yourself, use your head,
To handle others, use your heart.
Anger is only one letter short of danger.
If someone betrays you once, it's his fault.
If he betrays you twice, it's your fault.
Great minds discuss ideas;
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.
God Gives every bird it's food,
but He does not throw it into it's nest.
He who loses money, loses much;
He who loses a friend, loses more;
He who loses faith, loses all.
Beautiful young people are acts of nature,
but beautiful old people are works of art.
Learn from the mistakes of others.
The tongue weighs practically nothing,
but so few people can hold it.
Here is another really good one this is a great song..
The Rose..
Some say love
It is a river
That drowns the tender reed.
Some say love
It is a razor
That leaves your heart to bleed.
Some say love
It is a hunger, an endless aching need;
I say love
It is flower
And you its only seed.
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance;
It's the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance;
It's the one who won't be taken
That cannot seem to give;
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long;
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong;
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows ...
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose.
Amanda McBroom, 1977
Performed by Bette Midler
