Time is relevant
Time is only relevant to your place on earth It is completely irrelevant to your place of birth As I move from one place to the other My body grows accustomed to another When my time ends here on this earth I will return to my heavenly place of birth November 8, 2022 Mark Waldrop
Sharing or Caring
Sharing or Caring which is the most important you might ask They are both righteous tributes It's up to us to perform the correct task Sharing and Caring should be lovingly discussed Then transferred to those in need gaining their trust Trust is the most important I would say Having the gift of trust almost anything you can convey October 6, 2022 Mark Waldrop
I still remember
I still remember the days I Prayed for what I have now. Never stopping, always keeping my hand to the plow. Receiving much more than I ever deserve. Always trying to encourage others to serve. My Father is so good to me. Offering life through eternity. October 6, 2022 Mark waldrop
The Red Apple
A beautiful red apple before me I see, Is it from that famous forbidden tree? That was such a long time ago I don't think it could possibly be so That being the case, a juicy bite I did take I think it was alright, I saw no hissing snake October 5, 2022 Mark Waldrop
Brokenhearted
Here I sit all brokenhearted 20 years, I'm back when I started Nobody cares, work my fingers to the bone No one cares enough to call on the phone Sittin here crying old crocodile tears in my soup. Just jumping through the same old mindless hoops Will this horrendous loop never ever end? Getting off my butt, I might make some friends. Well, maybe someday I will muster up the courage. Finding friends that care for me, surely I will be less discouraged. October 5, 2022 Mark Waldrop
Fall Leaves
As the beautiful fall leaves drift to the ground The beauty of comforting silence is all around The aroma in the cool crisp air has an earthly sense Helping to calm us and keep us much less tense Fall is the forerunner of the future to come Bringing us close to where the snow flys from Anxiously awaiting the fresh breath of Spring All is well, this will happen again and again October 4, 2022 Mark Waldrop
Walk a mile in my shoes
If you would walk a mile in my shoes what would you see? You would see loving parents who always cared for me. You would see those who always sacrificed for me. Introducing me to Jesus who always walked with me. Always gently guiding never pushing having the freedom to be searching. Through the many dark storms of life walking with Jesus lessens the strive. Never quitting whatever you start. Building perseverance in your heart. Perseverance leads to faith and faith to hope. This combination broadens your spiritual scope. What I am today is a product of where I've been. Leading to a bright future, I'm proud to be in. October 3, 2022 Mark Waldrop
Wisdom
Wisdom is a very mysterious quality. It is a good part of your personality. The wiser you think you are, the less you know The more you will make a spectacle wherever you go. Worldly wisdom will stay with you here on earth It’s not a representation of your true worth. Wisdom from GOD should be the most desired. His wisdom and knowledge are all that’s required. It is easy to tell which wisdom you've got. If you try to pretend you are something you are not. True wisdom will bring God's truth out in you. Keeping you Happy all day and all the night through.

The Old ticking Clock
The tired Old Seth Thomas is just tick-tocking away If she could talk, the stories she would tell at the end of the day She was born early morn in April 1889 She shore been ticking a very long time A few times the ticking stopped when a family member died I think I saw a tear falling from her face as we all cried She ticked when little Seth was born On that frosty Thanksgiving, Morn She's ticked through many graduations Ticking right on through joyous occasions She's seen many wars and many parades The marriage of several pretty young maids Will she ever stop? Only Father time will tell. Only if her tired springs aren't wound so well. November 2, 2022 Mark Waldrop
