Many a folk have wrote the words of many a distant land
But none no fairer nor as true as a dearly beloved hand's pen
Sometimes the truth is not a fact but rather a belief of man
To satisfy the courage lost when living don't go as planned
Believe in good believe in love no matter what the cost
For if forgotten you will discover the worth of all you lost
Smiles will long be remembered more so than a fear
When goodness guards our mind's lives to quiet, protect, and heal
A cleansing rain wins mortal fame when it leaves the sky
To bless or curse the earth below we learn in the bye and bye
Fear is hatred's anguish lover jealousy it's handy man
Lost are lovings' gentle souls when dedication plays pretend
The maker of a given time stands solely by it's keeping
Like hatchlings birthed beneath the warmth of a true heart's beating
A tawdry set of affairs have ended kingsdoms past
Because the men among them spoke words they wouldn't match
A weary mind is strengthened when a hopeful thought appears
Releasing times chained to confines erasing doubts and fears
Words are like a days wage better saved than spent
For when released another decides the value of their content Jade Jaspers (c)2018
