Reincarnation

Raised from the ashes
Example of a phoenix perhaps?
Into the world born again
Nonsense this isn't
Created to fulfill a purpose of past or
Arrived to live a life anew
Renewed purpose of living
Not everyone gets this chance
Again to live twice
To make past wrongs right
It has to be God behind this
Or who else could give us a second chance
Now you must believe in Him for may be that's the only purpose

Engagement

Engaged two souls held by promise of togetherness
New diamonds shine in testimony
Gem is the couple
Affection runs deep
Grateful hearts for finding 'the one'
Each feels the same warmth
My heart swells as he smiles, eyes twinkling
Engaging conversation keeps interest alive
Now I will spend my life with him and
Trust my mind, body, soul with him forever

Cremation

Carefully dispose
Reduce to ashes
Emerges no phoenix
Man this is
At one time he ruled the world
Today lies lifeless
Into the machine his body goes
On the count of three burn and char
Now wash it away for it just ashes and bones

Breaking The Mold

Baseless superstitions
Recurring rites
Enough blindness already
Arrogantly ignorant
Kick such blind notions
Into the deeps it seeps
Now uproot untouchability and never
Germinate this disease ever

They are humans too
Hearts beat in their chests
Eyes are mist but dreams

Man can't ill treat another man
Of what, but power, he lacks?
Love one and love all for
Doomed is the world with hatred

Recycling

Recycle all that isn't needed
Enough pollution already
Crap should be reused
You find a way to conserve more
Can't afford to burden the earth further
Lame excuses don't count no more
I take the initiative to recycle
Now is the time to save the environment for
Global warming has to be delayed if not stopped

Precious thing pledged

As guarantee against

Wisdom can't buy food but
Nothing else but money can
