Poetry Pick For The Week (96)!

Gun violence in America has raise dramatically over the past two decades, and the number of murders committed with a firearm is up, unthinkably.  I wrote this poem for all the VICTIMS of gun violence‘s  and family members left behind to grieve.

” GUNS “

I turn on the radio.
Only to hear about a gun fight.
I turn on my TV.
Only, to watch about a funeral.
A stray bullet hit a little girl.
All I could do at that moment.
Was remembering, Dr. Martin Lutheran Jr. words.
Non- violence is the answer to the crucial political and moral question of our time. The need for man to overcome oppression and violence. Without resorting to oppression and violence. Man must evolve for all human conflict a method, which rejects revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.

Don’t Litter
By Veronica ~ 8 years old

We all litter every day in different ways.
If we keep littering our earth will be a big trash bag.
Let’s put out a call.
Most people don’t care.
My class would not dare !
Once my class put up a sign.
It said, “Please don’t litter.  The Earth is mine.”.
Our landfills are overflowing.
Every day they are growing.
We see it making all kinds of motions.
We can try to stop this now, but how  ?

Put your trash in the can !

I’ve LEARNED # 2

 

 

 

 

I’ve Learned that you can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life .
I’ve Learned that it’s taking me a long time to
become the person I am now.
I’ve Learned that the best way to help a teenager
with their problems is to Listen .
I’ve learned that regardless of how
hot a relationship is at first.
The passion fades and it better be something to
take it’s place ( love ) .
I’ve learned that I will never be
my own person, if I continue to care what others think of me .
I’ve learned that sometime you have to consider the people
you love needs over your owns .
I’ve learned that sometimes when I’m angry I have the
right to be angry but that doesn’t give me the right to be cold hearted.
I’ve learned that real love continue to grow even over the
longest of time.
I’ve learned about me over time through life hard lessons
and I’m still learning.

LESSON LEARNED  !

It has been said that life is the most patient teacher.

You will be presented with the same experience over and over until you learn the best way to deal with the situation.

This is not because life is cruel. Rather, it is because things have a way of coming back to haunt us when we don’t deal with them.

One form of intelligence is the ability to learn from mistakes.

When you are presented with a painful experience, take the time to think about how you can avoid it in the future.

This is an example of a lesson learned.
