POEMS AND lyrics by the PO-lyricalturtle by TIMOTHY DAVIS (top books to read txt) 📖

of old
One is to thank God
The other the light of the world

Both have special meaning
To the ones that observe
Different ways of believing
The one God of the universe

Holidays are meant for friends and family
To give thanks as we gather around
To tell of the love
In the God that we have found

We are blessed to do this
In this land that we live
Freedom of religion
This nation always gives

So enjoy all the holidays
That we Americans celebrate
Let’s never lose sight
That it is God that made us great

Hope my heart doesn’t remember

How did our love turn into this tear?
Being together all these years
My heart has become a volcanic eruption
My souls is burning from love interrupted

I hope my heart doesn’t remember you
I hope my heart and you are through
I hope my heart forgets the past
And the future that I had planned
Hour by hour, day by day
I hope my heart forgets yesterday

Your picture will always be in my mind
I hope it’s a place my heart can’t find
May my heart forget our memories?
And the way it felt when you touched me

I thought our hearts were connected
Now they are in the past forever
I thought our hearts skipped the same beat
Now those same rhythms will never repeat

How Do We Turn Away

What do we do?
When we turn on the TV
And they ask for money
To feed the kids
How do so many rationalize
Not acting on what they feel inside
Don’t those scenes tug at your heart?
Do you turn never take part?

You and I can give humanity a lift
By giving just a little bit
Don’t let your conscience close the door
To the ones that need you more
How can a heart turn away?
Leaving them to their own fate
How does ones heart turn to stone?
When people suffer all over the world

How can we let our minds forget?
All the people the world neglects
Can a loving spirit survive?
When we look through blind eyes
Why do we clutch onto material things
That we can’t take to the other side
Only if we show love to humanity
Will it stay with us through eternity?

I Make No Resolution

I make no resolutions
I can't keep them anyway
Most people make them
At the coming of New Years day

We think that we're sincere
When we have a drink or two
Even if we remember it
Very few follow through

So I will never make resolutions
That are delusional in my mind
I will be happy being me
And make good on my borrowed time

But I will make a promise
And keep it for all it's worth
That defines my character
How i am viewed here on this earth

If i make a promise
It always has more sway
I may break resolutions
But a promise, no way

So start making promises
They always have more bite
When it's made to someone else
To break it takes more might

I Only Love One Noun

Love a word too often thrown around
For appreciation of many nouns
Some say they love
That brand new car
I hear people say
They love the movie they saw

Some love the clothes
They have on their backs
Some love their houses
With all the bills attached

That's not the noun
I put the word love to
That little word
Is for only a few

Love is for the people
Those are around me
It's for my wife and sons
And my little grand kids

It’s for my friends
That I have a special bond
It's for my family
From where I have come

When I say I love someone
I give all my heart
So keep this word special
Quit throwing it around


If They Have Nothing to Give


So many sad hearts
In far away places
So much despair
In all the children faces

They can't see any hope
On their horizon
Their future is nothing
Because nobody cares

What will it take?
Till their pain reaches our soul
When will our heart ache?
For the blood on their soil
Nobody cares
For those who have nothing to give
No love for them
In the different world they live
They only fight
For what they get out of the ground
They only help
When the world makes a sound

Why do some people
Get left all alone
Their lives are mistreated
As the world looks on

They have nothing to give
But all life has meaning
We must break down the wall
And help all we can
If they have nothing to give
We can give them a friend
If they have a future
Their lives will make sense

Insurance

I have insurance for my house
I have it for my car
Can I buy it for my heart?
Before I give your love a try

Insurance for my appliances
Even for my TV
Can I protect my heart?
Before it’s you and me

I have insurance for my life
For the things I treasure the most
I need assurance of your love
That always will be first

I need my heart to be insured
So that if it breaks
It is no longer yours
I can’t replace this broken part
I need insurance for my heart

Before I give you this ring
I need to know if you feel the same thing
I need a contract that our hearts match
Never wanting that fatal crashed
Sign along the dotted line
That our hearts are a loving go

Knife of Blood

You asked me to do the final deed
Because the prayers said it should be
I've been a member all my life
My blood will be the final knife

You place this device around me
Because destruction is all you see
The members had their say
As you send me on my way

Will those virgins dance around me
You believe this is my destiny
You pray that all others are dead
Even the one I want to wed

Your will, will not be done
I will kill only one
You send others
To the same fate
No love for mankind
Only hate

Three explosions
One in the countryside
Two in the city
And no one knows why
Two hit their mark
Mayhem ensued
One self-destructed
To save his love of life

Life’s reality

Our lives are a reality we have to endure
Whether you’re rich whether you’re poor
For some the reality is in their dreams
Living a fantasy in what they see

Reality for some is living in a car
Some escape to their local bar
The reality is that there is war all around
Too many violent people in all of our towns

Reality is starving children in every land
People forgetting what they cannot see
Reality is not a great place for some
Going through life as though they were numb

Reality can and is a frighten thought
Many escape in illusions at a cost
Far too many people reality is a life of torment
If life agrees with you, you are fortunate

Reality is and will be here and now
Our reality is our life enjoy it somehow
Reality for some is to know Heaven waits
Ending the misery that many contemplate

LOVE STARTED IT ALL

Love started it all
It was His master plan
Than He gave it to us
Because everything begins and ends with His love
Love God's most important seed
His love every living thing needs
He made me to love Him
And to spread His love around
Because He begins and ends with love
His love put the stars in space
His love put a smile on my face
His love made the oceans that wide
And made the mountains that high
His love makes the universe grow
His love is all I need to know
Love is where it all began
Love is where it will end
All God's love between the two
Will be my closes friend
Because He begins and ends with love

Mothers love

My life giver has left this world
Yes my mother who will fill the void
Before a thought to my loving birth
She will always be my Mother Earth

Watering me with love to help me grow
Teaching me God’s love that today I know
She made all things possible in her eyes
God’s love to her love helps me survive

Her gentile voice her gentile smile
Those things I’ll miss till my final hour
Even in her ending days
She was a sweet as always

She was my beginning now the link is broken
Again we will connect in our Heavenly reunion
Another generation is coming fast
I’ll show her love through my love
Something they can have in the future
That loving comes from the past

Nothing brought, nothing taking

When I came into this life
I brought nothing in
And I won’t have anything
On the other side again
I came in with no money
No wealth followed me
From the beginning to my end
Living between two realities

Can’t take my wife
I’m sure she’ll be right behind
Can’t take my kids
Hope they remember me from time to time
My friends can’t visit
When I’m no longer here
But I’ll hold a place
Right next to me up there

There will be people waiting
For me on the other side
Some I haven’t seen
In quite a long time
I came in with nothing
And I take nothing out of here
Live your best everyday
And leave a little cheer

Nothing has changed

Nothing has changed
Since I walked this earth
There are still wars
That goes on like a curse

The planet is polluted
Many creatures are gone
You still don’t appreciate
All that I have done

I can still walk on water
And feed multitudes
I still heal the sick
That’s in all of you
Everything you need
Is right at your feet
Without a pure heart
You won’t see me again

There are many places
Were you go to pray
I rather you carry Me
In your heart everyday

You have many gadgets
That take all of you time
You
