HEAVEN'S Food On Earth! (U MUST READ THIS)



HEAVEN'S Food On Earth!
(U MUST READ THIS)

We go to TGIF a lot.
They have a huge
delicious meal for $13.99.



We order the chicken breast dinner,
deep fried green beans
and the Cream cheese dessert.
(2 take out dinners) (curbside to go)


OK...first I will tell you about
the dessert I make
with the cream cheese.
It is way too rich to eat by itself.
I make three cups of instant
Jello chocolate pudding
and put jut one of the cream
cheese desserts in
after the pudding starts to "set up"
Now you have a big bowl
of the best tasting dessert
EVER!!
If you make both at once,
you will have about
8 cups or 16 servings
of this tasty dessert.

I take one of the chicken breasts
(you will have four with two
orders) and I slice it thin, saute
it with the cut up green beans, and
some fresh broccoli tips for
color and taste. That makes two
hearty, tasty meals.
I use each breast for two meals,
mixed with their rice or some
I make in the cooker. It is so
versatile that you can make many
tasty dinners for two.
The breasts are the best I have
ever tasted. If you have more than
two to feed, there is
enough in the two take outs
to feed about 8 to 10 people if
you mix it with some veggies.
You will have no end of varieties
and all will taste
better than anything you can imagine.
Don't tell TGIF what I am doing
and teaching or they might
double their prices.
I haven't been this excited
about restaurant food in my
entire life.
Good eating to all.

'The Critics Pawn'



'The Critics Pawn'


My heart aches

From repressed joy

I want to let it out

But people who are

Supposed to love me

Keep hands clamped

Tightly over my mouth!

Breathing is hard...

I think I forget to breathe

The hurt is bad

I want to live

But I cannot...

My tears are welling up

I am choking...

Help me!

'Epitaph To Earth'


'Epitaph To Earth'


Oh...Mother Earth

Hold us once again

to your breast

Just one more chance

To preserve Nature's best

For it is spring...

Yet the grass stays brown

Trees wear no green crown!

No flowers fair

To scent the putrid air

The birds are still

Smog blotted out the sun

Now painful knives the chill

Some said this would happen...

But who believed?

Mother Earth...dying...whispers

Too late now for a solution

Cause of death? Man's pollution.

He stood at the foot

Of the giant

Begging for crumbs

And was told...

"We'll bury this

country in soot...

'Till the sun

By the foot

Can be sold!

'Legacy 2050'


They dubbed

Their leader's speech

"The Sky Is Falling"

A witty bunch...those Americans

Lovers of play

Machines of every sort

For every kind of sport

How strange they look

Their thirst now stilled

And our museum's filled

With monuments to Madness.

'Run Home to Mother


'Run Home to Mother'


Oh breeze...you cool

My troubled brow

With sweet caress.

Leaves rustle too

A sympathetic tenderness

Sparrow and chipmunk

Come to see

Withholding song and chatter

Sensitive to me...

The great strong oak

Supports me as I cry

And loans me strength

From its supply.

Refreshed ...

I lie back now

Near flowers

In this woodland sod

My head in Mother Nature's lap

Thank you for her...God.

'Fortress'


'Fortress'


Would that I

Have words

To shape

The Golden key

To fit your heart...

For you have

Armored it well

and sealed it shut

With molten lead.

Remembering the fire's pain

From those you've loved

But not again..

No..not again.

The treasure

You once gave so freely

Locked inside

Safe now

From pillagers....

Like flowers

Bursting forth

with beauty

Sharing freely

What we feel

If our gift

In youthful bud

Escapes the critics heel...

'Death Valley'


'Death Valley'


Harsh winds blow

In summers heat

I feel their chill

Pulling me into

despair.

Of what use

When the spirit's dead...

To stumble on

With the enemies at large

lined up to be the one

who throws the

final spear?

"The Elusive Golden Ball"


Warm Sunshine

Fills my mind

and heart

and soul

this day.

Joyous bubble

Hope that you

Will stay

Where are you

When I'm down

and out?

Shielded from

my eyes?

Would that I

could call you out

From hidden

Shapes disguise...

Have blue birds

Circle 'round

my head

and flowers

'Neath my feet

and every day

Warm sunshine

fill

A dream of dreams

So sweet...

Don't judge me 'cause

You think all's well

Perhaps I've heard

Night's wanton cry

And looked into

The Eye of Hell!

'Devil's Toy'


'Devil's Toy'


I am the devil's toy

He throws me up

to watch me fall.

He throws me up

Against a wall.

A sadist he

Waits till the

Time is right

Then tearing me

Apart with spite

This same old ground

Again I've trod

When will it end?

Please help me..God!

'Nine-Eleven`


'Nine-Eleven`


Come into my temple

Where it is safe

Where you

Will shine forth in love

Where evil doth not dare to

Rear its ugly head.

I will wrap my cloak

Around you

and sustain you

in all things.

I will erase

the memories of pain

and lead you into the light.

I will comfort you always...

And show you

miracles unending.

Do not be afraid...

for I am with you.

The dust will settle

from the tragedy on earth

And they will find your dust

and empty shells

But you are safe

here with Me...

Those left behind

will mourn you

because you have been stolen

from them.

I say to them...

be not filled with sorrow

Hold on to one another

and bring peace

Into the dust filled rubble.

For I am King...

and I will punish those

Who slashed

that ugly scar upon

The lovely day I sent.

Vengeance is Mine.

'Stages'


'Stages'


I opened my eyes

I was their prize

I played I smiled

A Winsome child

I danced ..I pranced

Became entranced

I joked ..I smoked

Twice almost choked

I swayed...I laid

Afraid..I prayed

I laughed..I cried

Until I died..

Is gone

There is an

Empty space

A room

Swept clean

Stormy wake

A peace prevails

The pain we feel

When being born

The pain of life

Are soothed inside

Our hearts and minds

by the simple act of crying.

'The Lesson'


'The Lesson'


Don't trade gold for copper

'Less you like to live regret.

Copper shines a little while

And lures you..you can bet.

The shine won't last

And you will cry

And yearn to

Once more hold

That lovely living

Wonder giving

Loving piece of gold!

'Act Now'


Cover your anger

With sadness

And depression

Will set in

You can't ignore

The Beastie

When he's crawling

"Neath your skin

Take anger out

And look at it

And scream and rant

and rave!

Release the poison

Eating you

Or suffer to your grave!
