Not without a woman

Woman

By Guy T Woods Sr December 18, 2011

Women brace yourself, - - - Hold on tight to what I employ,

Have you given yourself due compensation to who you really are?

Walk up right! - - - Take a poised position,

Do not assume prehistoric postures or the labels that have been thrust on you for so many years,

Your souls were not made for that, to bear that shame!

Such ignorance was not meant for you! But it was cast your way through jealousy;

But why?

You are pure beauty, you should stand strong, your mothers are made from the richness of this earth, they are daughters of kings in their own right and have given you a true sense of equilibrium,

They gave you a sweet balance of culture not to be squandered, and passion and heart.

Whisper in the ears of your sons and daughters; place this gene carefully in their instruments; so that within each society they may be seen as great contributors,

Your children are the seeds of great and your daughters harness the breath of your ancestry within their wombs.

And your daughter’s breast, will feed life to nations, and touch this world in many ways, with gentle compassion, innovation, with literature that touches the heart and humanitarian efforts that heal lives and bring peace and so much more;

“Woman” do not let the ugliness of this world tarnish your brilliance or make a mockery of the richness within you!

You are not the absence of color you define what it is, and have placed your name on it in many colors and shades,

Be now defined, but not in teaching mediocrity but the fullness of who you really are, queens to be lifted up and placed on the shoulders of Good men,

Not an enigma but a living fact! that should be placed on the lips of mankind and in their hearts.

You are a precious star on earth, placed hear because spiritually, you desired to be here, and God made it possible!

And men should be aware that your power has no end, but you use it with purpose and with responsibility, never to abuse.

I applaud you because I see your potential and know who you are, I am your sons and daughters, I am in love with you; the real “You”!

And I will always be bound to you, I feed richly from your bosoms, (your heart’s lair) so feed me well woman (wisdom).

I have much years to go and miles to walk, and only you can truly love me the way I need to be loved and nurtured for I am your.

I need you to be “Woman in your fullness”

“Woman”

When do good men cry?

When do good men cry? -

When do good men cry? A very interesting question, and the world will never know the answer. You look at the writings before in some sort of amazement, but why? It is pure and simple. God man hold their tears until they are alone and when they see that their tears will not hurt another person (why? Because he is good and cares for others more than he cares for himself) the whole thing is real simple as I have said, you may never even know or understand why he is even a good man. His code for life is higher than any other, and he is so very critical about what he does and how he does it that the world think of him and a little off beat, kind of strange and sometimes obsessed with truth and right and victory and success and all living things. He is a man driven to complete this grand calling to make things better somehow, he looks at his life as something to have great purpose, he builds you up not break you down, he invest into you and knows he should not look for a return; that is a pressure you do not need. He stands as and honor to know him, he does believe and walks in that belief, he takes no short cuts in doing things, he knows that life is fragile and makes the very best of every minute. He knows how to really love from the heart and spares no energy to show it, he is always looking in the mirror to find some spot or blemish to correct his mistakes. He moves swiftly and does not hesitate to help another person when in harm of lacking health. He speaks to His God for proper direction, and weather he gets answer or not he is a mover and a shaker in the life he lives, he is devoted to his craft (loving people no matter who) Now he may not agree with your life style but you would never know and you would not feel uncomfortable around him (he comforts you not condemns you) His heart is gentle even though you may feel his stern focus to the cause. But with all that has been said about him to raise him in exultation, he is humble not to applaud but quietly good his way. But yet he does cry! And he cries for mankind but inside, yes a good man cries!

The Big chill

Awoke to find my dream was not real …

and then to find only fragments left of last night's treasured memory …

lingering there in my mind.

I picked a rose …

the thorns pricked my finger, blood arose and yet I was glad to be alive;

I saw the sunrise then watched it to the point when it hurt my eyes …

I was yet still alive.

I walked today it could have been for awhile…

I think it was just a couple, few miles,

my bones ache and my shoes got torn but today I didn't cry!

My life was taken …

but at least I didn't die.

If memory serves me right …

things will happen that's the beauty of being alive…

but still life goes on, so tomorrow once again I will try;

hopes and dreams may be written in yet again someone else eyes.

Don't be surprised -

the big chill comes and in the spring the dead comes alive.

More Than just Words: This Father's Love

More Than just Words: This Father's Love: Father’s love their daughters too It is with great pride that I say I love my little darling girls; even now they are not little any...

This Father's Love

Father’s love their daughters too

It is with great pride that I say I love my little darling girls; even now they are not little anymore, but women.   In my heart they will always be my little dears,  I have not always been the best person that I know, as a matter of fact I could have been a better father in some ways.  And as I look back there are some things that all fathers wish they could have changed, and as your daughters choose their life mate; I think that we fathers, wish there was a law that gave us the right to choose the best man for our loving daughters ( I am working on that one J).  

Now please let me say that I am the one to judge me, and I do so harsh enough; some may say that I do it more harshly than I should.   I do not look to you for approval or disapproval; my daughters are the ones whose thoughts matter only, but I have invited you to this arena not for you to speak, but to listen.    I employ some latitude to voice this opinion of myself and shed light on my love for my daughters.    We, are truly fathers because deep within we would love to have given all the best to our little girls, and if given the opportunity, they would never be wrong and the world is ( I know that I speak as a person who needs therapy) but we know that we sometimes have to tell them no; but it so hard for us and good fathers find some way to do it.    I am so sorry of the things that I could have done better and missed the opportunity.   And girls I failed you because I was not able to give you everything that my heart desired.  Forgive me!

Now let you wondering eyes rest, because I speak not to the Handsome boys or young men that I also have; but to my beautiful girls and I now say that your brothers I have you in mind also but this is the day gage to your sisters, Dad has not forgotten you.  

 Daddy loves you (my girls) and wishes the world to know; and so here goes “I LOVE YOU”!    You are so special to me and if I could hug you each day and all day, I would! But I must let you try your wings and fly, as all fathers should.   But if you have never seem Daddy cry before,  then feel these words and know each day, that I can’t fight for you, or each hour that I can not hold your hand when you cross the busy highway of life and each time a tear falls from your eye and I can’t catch it before it drops.  I shed a tear and believe you me your Daddy cares and cries for you. 

So when the world gets a little cold remember that you Father’s heart is warm and my arms ache to hold you and protect you, because no matter what anyone says, this old man loves you.   My dears I do love you and if you ever feel no other does, this Daddy loves you and you will always be my little Girls.

Daddy loves you, 

Guy T Woods Sr

I hope that his poem, will stand through the test of time, everyday expressing my love for my daughters and for other fathers' love to their daughters for years to come.

 

Letter of this father’s Love

Get that cursed light out my eyes!

So that I may see, you all and tell this tale,

Of how, that I!

Stand here in love with my daughters both,

And only care that there eyes behold me!

As their father in good stead and in a precious way.

My walk is only for them and not for you;

If I fail them, then I fail me,

Then on this earth, I am finished, I am through!

Daughters, I will toil this life God has given and hold your faces high,

As the method to my madness, and forever do try,

Sleep my children; Daddy has gone to be back in just a little while,

I learn my best, to find my self approved;

But to none, other than my darling dears,

It is with you, that make me merry,

And you that make me care!

And I have no other desire but to you my two darlings fair,

This note is all about how much I really care!

So if I die within the night and before tomorrow’s light,

I hope that this would be,

An enlightening epigrammatic pause, to shed some light,

That while, your father lived his life, each breath did bear your name!

So now I hope you go your merry way, and also love your children well,

And say to them even though my father, whom I really did not know,

Had worn his heart on the outside his chest,

And shouted to the world he knew;

My Daughters, - - - I love them well!

More Than just Words: The American Fighting Man (If You care Read)

More Than just Words: The American Fighting Man (If You care Read): The American Fighting Man (do you even love him?) WOW this was a day and it all unfolded in a matter of minutes when I read ...

The American Fighting Man (If You care Read)

The American Fighting Man (do you even love him?)

WOW this was a day and it all unfolded in a matter of minutes when I read the comments on a post, then I had to re-post it and then add a little bit of my own guidance of thought to it. 

 I was floored to know that the mind of the average person is heartless and not very bright if I may add sadly.  Now I may not be fair to some people in saying this but please hear me out, I served in the Auxiliary Air Force (the civil Air Patrol all the way through high School) then I enlisted in the US Navy (enlisted) Then I went to the Officers Candidate in the US Army, then I still went to the US National Guard, I was a very dedicated and loyal military man who is proud of my time serving in this country.            I may have had questions on what I did, but if you don't know what it means to fight for a greater cause or to follow orders then you have to be excused at this time from this discussion right now.        

 This is a grown up conversation, my question is - should the man be condemned because he had followed orders even when he might have a question on the reasons of those orders?  Actually the answer of that could be debated for years and we still end up with two sides and no winners.      But when a man comes home from that kind of turmoil in his life, should he be welcomed home along with his friends who he served with and be welcomed with loving open arms?         Please be careful with your answer to that question you may have a family member who is serving and think that it has not touched you personally, so your answer should be well thought out and not careless; but I think that he should be given a feast and a heroes welcome and his friends that served with him also. 

Sad thing  we have not done that in this country for all of our sons and daughters and brothers and uncles and nephews and nieces and mothers who have served in the military even if they have seen battle of not. We have rejected the man and women of the military, if we reject the war that they participated in; and that my friend is the worst wrong that there could ever be.     

     I want those who read this post to stand up and spread this because what I am saying is the right and the thing to do.  Open your arms and fight for our Military men no matter if they did not even set foot in a war zone.  Just  because to serve is to change your way of thinking and life as you known it to be and go through some of the most life changing things just to be able to serve this country and also no one knows when your time will come as a soldier; at home or abroad your life is not your own and you do as you are told and unless you served you do not even know how to compare the life of a soldier with any other.

Re-Post this for me - Re-Post this because you are thankful for the comfort you enjoy - but please RE-POST because you have a heart for humans who have large shoulders like the American Fighting Man and all those who serve.
