I Wonder Why

I wonder why I love you I wonder why I care Every time I look for you, You are never there. I try so hard to please you But you can never see, What can I do, what does it take For you to notice me? I seem to make you angry At everything I [...]

Silence by M Frances Poile

In silence was the universe conceived, In silence doth the heart of man seek out That other heart to rest on: Nature’s soul Yearns ceaslessly to give it’s speechless calm Unto her restless children as they roam Far from the central place which is their home. ************* Wouldst know thy Mother Nature face to face?

The Thinker by Berton Braley

Back of the beating hammer By which the steel is wrought, Back of the workshops clamor The seeker may find the Thought, The thought that is ever master Of iron and steam and steel, That rises above disaster And tramples it under heel! *********** The drudge may fret and tinker Or labor with dusty blows, [...]

Careful

Be careful of your habits, because your habits become your character. Be careful of your character, because you character becomes your destiny [...]

Resolve By Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Build on resolve, and not upon regret, The structure of the future, Do not grope Among the shadows of old sins, but let Thine own soul’s light shine on the path of hope. *********** And dissipate the darkness, Waste no tears Upon the blotted record of lost years, But turn the leaf and smile, oh [...]

Giving By Arthur William Beer

To get he had tried, yet his store was still meager, To a wise man he cried, in a voice keen and eager, “Pray tell me how I may successfully live?,” And the wise man replied, “To get you must give.” ******* As to giving he said,”What have I to give?” I have scarce enough [...]
