We laugh, we weep, we hope, we fear,And that's the burden of a year.

Be careful what rubbish you toss in the tide. On outgoing billows it drifts from your sight, But back on the incoming waves it may ride And land at your threshold again before night. Be careful what rubbish you toss in the tide.

Know that you are great...so dominate.

There is nothing we cannot live down, and rise above, and overcome.

A day which passed without a poem from my pen I considered lost and misused.

Hide in your heart a bitter thought, Still it has power to blight; Think Love, although you speak it not It gives the world more light.

You never can tell when you send a word, Like an arrow shot from a bow By an archer blind, be it cruel or kind, Just where it may chance to go!
