In support of Women’s History Month, I’d like to bring to light that thousands of women of color have been murdered or missing. This is a global crisis. We need more than rallies and bills passed. But the powers that be can combat human and sex trafficking and arrest predators and rescue victims. This seems to be an issue based on race, so let’s not forget to pray. I posted this prayer on YouTube...

This world would be a better place if people will humble themselves and repent, but since we're full of sin, folks will make up excuses like Will Smith. And here's my take on grace, authenticity and atonement.  Apology- a written or spoken expression of one's regret, remorse, or sorrow for having insulted, failed, injured, or wronged another.  Support the show Poems are green and Po...

In Time Of Silver Rain By Langston Hughes In time of silver rain  The earth puts forth new life again, Green grasses grow  And flowers lift their heads, And over all the plain  The wonder spreads Of Life, Of Life, Of life! In time of silver rain The butterflies lift silken wings  To catch a rainbow cry, And trees put forth new leaves to sing In joy beneath the sky As down the roadway Passing boys...

The Good Life By Tracy K. Smith When some people talk about money They speak as if it were a mysterious lover Who went out to buy milk and never Came back, and it makes me nostalgic For the years I lived on coffee and bread, Hungry all the time, walking to work on payday Like a woman journeying for water From a village without a well, then living One or two nights like everyone else On roast chick...

The giver (for Berdis) by James Baldwin If the hope of giving is to love the living, the giver risks madness in the act of giving. Some such lesson I seemed to see in the faces that surrounded me. Needy and blind, unhopeful, unlifted, what gift would give them the gift to be gifted? The giver is no less adrift than those who are clamouring for the gift. If they cannot claim it, if it is not there,...

Dreams By: Paul Laurence Dunbar What dreams we have and how they fly Like rosy clouds across the sky; Of wealth, of fame, of sure success, Of love that comes to cheer and bless; And how they wither, how they fade, The waning wealth, the jilting jade — The fame that for a moment gleams, Then flies forever, —dreams, ah —dreams! O burning doubt and long regret O tears with which our eyes are wet, Hea...

Caged Bird By Maya Angelou  A free bird leaps on the back of the wind and floats downstream till the current ends and dips his wing in the orange sun rays and dares to claim the sky. But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage can seldom see through his bars of rage his wings are clipped, and his feet are tied, so he opens his throat to sing. The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unk...
