Free

Oh that cloud stuck in that tree
Why can not that cloud be free?
Why is the cloud not in the air,
But is stuck in the tree down there?

Oh my soul that wants to rise,
but is stuck in Satan's lies.
I see thorns and can not leave,
that trap that hold me still.

Look that cloud is in the sky
free from those branches it does fly
carried to the freedom it longed
It sores up high heights to leave that tree.

I read the scriptures and fin
that their is a way out.
I pray and am strengthened
I find myself above Satan's lies.

Mother's Day

I love you.
Yes, it's true.
I want to help you every way.
Happy Mother's Day!

Mother's Day

When you have a mom
you have a Jewel beyond price.
If you treat it wrong
It will shatter,
So treat it NICE.

God's Children

We are children of God.
Some of us are small,
Others are kind of tall.
That is okay!
Everyone is meant to be different!
So if you are small or tall,
Black or white,
You're a child of God!
That's right!

Dolphins

Dolphins can leap,
And they can spin around.
Don't try it yourself!
You'll fall on the ground.
Dolphins are sleek,
And rather quite fast!
Don't try to race them!
You'll come in last.
Dolphins are fun,
And so are you.
Another of God's creations.
Whew!

God's Creations

The earth is round,
With blessing abound.
The trees are tall,
But they can fall.
The sun is bright.
It gives off light.
God's creations are
a beautiful sight.
