Tales From Two Texas Paw Paw

Hi folks, this is 2 Texas PawPaw and the reason for this blog is I like to tell stories and try to write a little poetry now and then. Most of my writings is about my family because I have the greatest family in the world, I realize if you dont know my family, it might be a little boring to you but maybe my family will get a kick out of some of it anyway, Hope you like it and if you dont, well, thats ok too, you're still my friend.

"TEARS IN YOUR EYES"

Hi folks, this is Two Texas PawPaw. You have all heard the old saying, "If the shoe fits, wear it", probably a million times. This poem is not directed at any one in peticular, no more than it is me or anyone else who may have been in a situation that the poem might solve things that are or once was on your mind. It's called "Tears In Your Eyes", and it goes like this:-----YOU LOOK AT YOUR LIFE THROUGH A CRYSTAL BALL, AND WONDER IF YOU WERE WISE---KNOWING NOW THAT DECISIONS BY YOU BROUGHT ONLY TEARS TO YOUR EYES---AND SIGNS OF THINGS YET TO COME ARE SCARRY AND HARD TO ACCEPT---WONDERING WHY ALL THOSE SECRETS WERE EXPOSED BUT DIDN'T HELP---ALL THE PIECES CAN STILL BE PICKED UP, AND STORED AWAY IN YOUR MIND---AND LEFT SO DEEP IT WOULD BE HARD FOR ANYONE TO FIND---LET JOY TAKE THE PLACE OF HATE AND PUT SUN SHINNY DAYS AHEAD---AND RELIEVE THE PRESSURE OF ALL THE THINGS THAT SOMEBODY MIGHT HAVE SAID---GET BACK TO THE BASICS OF LOVING EACH OTHER AND LET FELLOWSHIP HAVE IT'S PLACE---AND BE THE LAST PIECE TO THE PUZZLE THAT'S BEEN LOST IN THE HUMAN RACE---LOVE SOMEBODY YOU HAVEN'T LOVED IN AWHILE, AND YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED---HOW QUICKLY THOSE THOUGHTS OF KINDNESS, CAN REMOVE THOSE TEARS FROM YOUR EYES---AND WHEN ALL THINGS ARE HAPPY AGAIN, YOU'LL FIND LIVING CAN REALLY BE GOOD---WE CAN SHARE OUR LOVE TOGETHER AGAIN, BY DOING THINGS RIGHT, LIKE WE SHOULD:-----This is Two Texas PawPaw, signing off, and, the good Lord willing and the creeks don't rise, I'll be back tomorrow.

Great poem...Call me crazy, but I have hard time beleiving it's not directed at anyone in peticular. In any case, I do think that there's usually a little more to it than just "putting on a happy face" and forgetting something that has had a great impact on your life. It's neither healthy nor beneficial in my opinion. There's a saying I've heard that I like and it goes like this "The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable".
