I saw you step on the sidewalk crack scuffing your patents, some excuse. The tally man chalks up on to his sky scoreboard. You know it, you feel it, lying in bed at night. Later her back cracks like a walnut.

Advice
Advice is a thought, a window if you will A glass window to see how you are from a different person’s view. No one has the same eyes as you, No one will ever see the world like you do. Another person’s advice is only their thoughts on the situation It’s up to us rather to put it into our daily lives, Use this advice as our motivation. If the advice you are given is positive, Listen, make use of the wise words that you have heard If the advice you are given is negative, Listen, make use of the wise words that we have learned I could give you advice, Perhaps the best advice known to man But if man cannot seek the motivation to act The advice is as good as sand Sand crops windows, Windows to see outside Advice creates inspiration, Inspiration is divine Which one of us man will create that glass window to see past our own hands Outstretched but still limited, We must learn to drop our hands, along with our pride Taking advice shows we are up for the challenge To better our art, Advice is a thought, a window if you will Advice is meeting half way. Another person’s advice is only their thoughts on the situation It’s up to us rather to put it into our daily lives, Use this advice as our motivation.
The Misunderstood
My community is misunderstood. Not, an unsafe and violent place. Not, the expectations of our community being a disgrace. The thoughts of you seeing drug dealers around the corner should vanish from your minds, for we are as neighbourly as can be and divine. Our community is the center of us, it’s where we grew up, it’s where friendships blossom, it’s our home and I find this awesome. A diversity of Asians, Latinos, Black and White Make the community a wonderful delight. For my community is misunderstood.
Advice
Young girls listen here, The expectations of others won’t matter as long as yourself doesn’t disappear. The media tells us to be something we are not We think if we don’t listen we won’t fit the plot. We are told how we should look, What to wear How to speak, and Who to be. But I’ll always personally disagree. The truth is we should just stay true to who we are The logic of this is very simple and will take you very far. People may look alike or act the same but no one in the world is like you. Now let me explain, Follow your heart Follow your dreams And be yourself. Step out and show the world who you really are Cause God knows he made you to be a Star.
Forgiveness
Why is forgiveness so hard to give? When without forgiveness we could not live. I guess for us, to set pride aside Is as hard as swimming against the tide But without forgiveness, the Devil wins For that is one step headed toward sin Even if the sin against us was wrong OUR sins, that are forgiven, go on and on. We are taught, two wrongs don’t make a right So against our own anger, we must fight Seek God, talk to Him, praise Him for it all And then, this anger, from you, He will withdraw. For to think hate, and feel hate, we are just as bad, And with these sins, we really make God sad Think of those who you have hurt or have done wrong, Remember their forgiveness and sing a new song For to have God’s love and His forgiveness, That alone should bring us bliss When you feel the pain of the sin Think of the cross, and the pain Jesus was in Remember the debt that was paid for you And to your fellow man, offer forgiveness too.
Biopoem
Multicultural! It has been said that my community is made up of only one type of people, But in fact, many different types of people live in my area. This is what makes my community multicultural! It has also been said that because of this, a lot of bad action goes around, False, bad action goes around everywhere, because in every race, religion, and culture, there are good and bad people. This just goes to say how multicultural my community truly is. Mostly everyone in my community knows each other, We are welcoming and loving to all. Malvern! A place that is multicultural, welcoming, and loving. A place that I can call my home!
