Welcome To My Life!

Welcome to my life.
It is more fascinating then ants foraging on life’s picnic blanket,
A checkered green and white playing field.
From the second I wake I hear my father’s reminders.
It reminds me that “My life is separated from the rest.’’
“Through the haze and daze that leads to lonely ways,”
I always forage and graze life through pastures of green.
This makes me feel safe. When I am suppressed,
I get stronger like Paul,
Like Titus,
Like Peter,
And like I Am.
This is my life not yours you don’t understand my ways.
Your definition of what Death is,
Is different than mine,
Because in my world I die to live.
Welcome to my life.
For fun I like to preach.
It makes me happier then laughing hyenas.
In the Electric Heaven i call like an angel of the lord,
I always beg for his spirit to guide me on the right path.
In my life my favorite people are my neighbors.
They are as high as any King or Queen.
They make me feel good about my Death,
When I hear the sounds of there praising voices.
It takes me into the Eternal Heavens,
And never makes my life seem wasted.
Because “I Am” is my Father.

All it takes is a crack in
All it takes is a crack in the wall
All it takes is a crack in the wall,
For another to see where you fall.
However little the whole may be,
It’s large enough for us to see.
What the world does view,
Is completely up to you.
All it takes is a crack in the wall,
And all that spills from that whole,
Will open up a larger window,
In which the view is of you,
Something I will guarantee to be true.
