COME LET US REASON TOGETHER
The Lord said, "Come let
us
reason together,"
He will stay by our side to leave
us, never.
His way is the best because He
can see,
He knows our heart, He said,
"Follow Me."
His thoughts are not our thoughts,
we'll know,
Receive the infilling of the Holy Spirit, begin
to flow.
So many times we seem so
all alone,
Jesus is with us, His Light
has shone.
Come let us reason together, we
must see,
Jesus will lift us up to be what we
must be.
His ways are not our ways, we'll
soon see,
We must have the Love of Jesus, be
set free.
Jesus said, "Are you willing to
pay the
Price to follow Me?" He said, "Have faith
in Me!"
By His shed Blood on Calvary's tree, we
are free,
Can't you see, He knows, He said, "Believe
in Me."
The Lord said, "Come let us
reason together,"
We'll be with Him in eternity forever
and ever.
Let us go to the mountain of
the Lord,
Commune with him and he will
lead us.

To
Earthward
by Robert Frost
Love at the lips was touch
As sweet as I could bear;
And once that seemed too much;
I lived on air
That crossed me from sweet things,
The flow of - was it musk
From hidden grapevine springs
Down hill at dusk?
I had the swirl and ache
From sprays of honeysuckle
That when they're gathered shake
Dew on the knuckle.
I craved strong sweets, but those
Seemed strong when I was young;
The petal of the rose
It was that stung.
Now no joy but lacks salt
That is not dashed with pain
And weariness and fault;
I crave the stain
Of tears, the aftermark
Of almost too much love,
The sweet of bitter bark
And burning clove.
When stiff and sore and scarred
I take away my hand
From leaning on it hard
In grass and sand,
The hurt is not enough:
I long for weight and strength
To feel the earth as rough
To all my length.
VII.
My Vowles
One million kisses
All over your body
What can I say your a hottie
Your loving heart
Your words so sweet
Hearing your voice,
Is my favorite treat
Whenever your hurt
I feel the pain
Whatever you think
I think the same
As long as you live
I live on 2
No matter the furture
I stay loyal 2 you.

To lose Thee
by Emily Dickinson
To lose thee, sweeter than to gain
All other hearts I knew.
?Tis true the drought is destitute
But, then, I had the dew!
The Caspian has its realms of sand,
Its other realm of sea.
Without this sterile perquisite
No Caspian could be.
IX.
No Comparison
A look is not the same
If I'm not looking at u
A touch is not a touch
Unless it's touching u
A hug can't be a hug
Unless I'm in your arms
A kiss won't be a kiss
Unless my lips are touching yours
A care can never be so tender
Unless those hands belong 2 u
Making love can't be so sweet
Unless it's between us.

Reluctance
by Robert Frost
Out through the fields and the woods
And over the walls I have wended;
I have climbed the hills of view
And looked at the world, and descended;
I have come by the highway home,
And lo, it is ended.
The leaves are all dead on the ground,
Save those that the oak is keeping
To ravel them one by one
And let them go scraping and creeping
Out over the crusted snow,
When others are sleeping.
And the dead leaves lie huddled and still,
No longer blown hither and thither;
The last lone aster is gone;
The flowers of the witch hazel wither;
The heart is still aching to seek,
But the feet question "Whither?"
Ah, when to the heart of man
Was it ever less than a treason
To go with the drift of things,
To yield with a grace to reason,
And bow and accept the end
Of a love or a season ?
