Congrats my friends! Your marriage will live long.
Unless someone is dishonest, and does completely wrong.
I’m not saying it will happen, just keep it in mind.
It’s happened to me, I got kicked in the behind.
Out the door I was, never seen again.
But I do not regret it, for he was a bad man.
Just trust each other, with your heart and head.
For the next thing to happen, is some hoe in your bed.
Know the password to his phone, and his calls before dinner.
Check his messages on Facebook and his tweets posted on Twitter.
Make sure he goes to work, with no stops in between.
Know the gossip that goes on around the coffee machine.
If this is way too much, then I’d call you a chicken.
He’s gunna leave one day with all your property and children.

EPITAPH!
Shed no sad tears for me now I am gone
there really is no reason you should grieve
the sun still shines and life will still go on,
so be content till your turn comes to leave
Do not despair for I have not gone far
and time is but a fleeting, twinkling star
the days the hours and months they all are naught
for in the mystic circlet they are caught
In times traverse I move in ageless spheres
and count the days in aeons not in years
I have left behind the mystery of mars
and climbed the endless stairway to the stars
Yet in the fullness of eternal years
we all shall pass along the endless ways
and smile at all our trivial childish fears
that plagued us all our earthly human days
So smile and dry your tears and weep no more
though I am gone in spirit I am here
we all are part of what has gone before
and all we have to conquer is our fear
Rejoice and smile and laugh and be content
and count your endless blessings while you may
for yesterday is but a passing dream
that is fast fading on it’s endless way
For if tomorrow never ever comes
we cannot prove today was ever here
then surely we are truly all immortal
in an eternal endless timeless sphere

Friends !
So many folk I have known in my life
sharing the sorrow the joy and the strife
chums at the school that I knew oh so well
who went off to war and in foreign fields fell
girls at the school who went on to dance
and some that I even took out to romance
family and friends that are scattered all over
who all sailed away from the white cliffs of Dover
pals that I knew in the pubs and the clubs
some now long gone to the sky up above
they shared our sorrow our joys and emotions
and rejoiced with us if we got promotion
I think of them often all the ones that I knew
In the army in wartime that bright happy crew
Where are they now I muse and I ponder
Are they alive are they dead I sit and I wonder
Their faces I see at times in my dreams
As I ponder the purpose of life and it’s schemes
Where have they gone all these men that I knew
Who served in the colours of the red white and blue
We all swore to write and to all keep in touch
But with all of those names it was really too much
For we all live our lives in our own present sphere
And socialise gladly with the folks who are here
Fond memories fade as the years they pass by
And some of the sadness can make us all cry
But the past is a memory fading too soon
And the morning of life has become afternoon
Then as we move on into the gentle twilight
Be prepared for the dark as we move into night
And as we sail undisturbed across life’s tranquil lake
We arise in the dawn as we then all awake
For with all of these friends that we all have known
It is soothing to know we are never alone

I’m lost and don’t know where to go
And God is just sitting there
Watching the show.
I’m tired, to tired to sleep
I want to close my eyes
But help I must seek.
I’m in pain… So much pain
That its driving me insane.
Everyone has gone
Seems like I’m thè only one..
All alone, with no body sitting on the thrown
Everyone has gone
Now I have no one to relie on..
I need help from God
But seems as if I’m just a fraud..
Now I will die
In my casket I shall lie.
No more pain, no more lies
No more terrible goodbeys..

The richness and value of worth
cannot be replaced with things on earth.
Most judge people by what they possess.
How much power they gain or how they dress.
Things are temporal and can be quickly lost.
You can’t put your trust in them at any cost.
It is good to have comforts in life, don’t hug them too tight.
They might slip through your fingers, fleeing in the night.

I wake up early with a yawn,
To see the Sun rising when it was dawn,
As my eyes went to the open sky,
There I saw a little twitter bird to fly.
The Sun rose up with its yellow paint,
And spread it in the sky with its colours of faint.
It came up from between the mountains,
And have a golden glow to the fountain.
The grasses outside turned yellowish green,
And the colourful nature turned into a golden seen..
The morning got bathed by the golden glow,
And the breeze became calm and slow.
The cock gave the alarm in its high pitched voice,
To the village without any noise.
My mind came to a halt by seeing the beautiful
Nature;
Where it clearly defines the beauty of each of its
Creatures.

God loves us all
even the thieves all through the mall
he loves the creatures
and everyones features
he even loves the ugliest of them all.
“Do not judge”
for your heart wont budge
and loving is what he wants us to do the most.
