Woman, you know what I like And what I like to do; Everything is all about you! So you go to work and leave me here Like a watchman alone in a cucumber field. Yeah, I understand that I made no money; We do what we got to do – honey! When I’m servin’ the […]

However you may regard the Supper, its significance may have been displayed by an array of responses to the “pandemic.” Our Church of Christ (along with others, it seems) opted to make church assembly available “on line” for those who might enjoy fellowship with others via a computer screen. Hmm. Feed the poor, help the […]

Five pieces o’ chocolate I found todayOn my walk round the city way.Ate one a moment ago to no distress;I’ll save for someone else the rest.What a blessing are walks around town;Never know what on the street may be found!Well that’s the news in the ante-meridian;Might have later something more excitin’.Peace to all takin’ time […]

Whom, today Lord, may I blessBringing to his soul some rest? Wandering to a fro each day, Who needs now to know the way? Got to be one here or there Drifting in the blowing air. Your will is more that just a thrill Giving us comfort as from a pill; We strive to dive […]

No need to cut a swath with that gas; None o’ that pride will last. Might be rippin’ real strong Impressin’ the simple in the throng, But in public you know it’s wrong! Try switchin’ up and singin’ a song; More folk will come along. You know you always got a new tune Everybody knows […]

“Love is strong as deathJealousy as severe as Sheol,” So keep your temper cool And stay on solid soil. “Flashes like the flashes of fire”; Hellish is romantic desire! Control that flame of love; Chill out! Take a tip from a dove: A little peck here; a little peck there. Then take leave of that […]

Risen from the dead, His glory unfurled, Gonna come back Judgin’ the world. Might be done with you! What you gonna do? Get yo’ shit together right quick Done with those deeds that make Him sick! Onward, then, on that path! On Him He poured out that wrath, So you could make an escape. Must […]

What can I say of my girl? What more than of a pearl, Valuable among all treasures, Delighting the eye with a measure Beyond all things in the world? Well, no pearl can compete with a child Though some do get kind of wild And who else can drive one insane And entertain bringing joyful […]
