Gwendolyn Carole Tipton presents a few poems by number.
#1. Give ThanksGive thanks for fond memories and a clear mind,for good friends who are there all the time.Give thanks for lasting loves that will never end,for unwanted loves, we chose not to mend.Give thanks for saddening days that did not last,for happiness that helped those days pass.Give thanks for family and children, who are dear,for this journey called life, year after year.
#182 AnxietyAnxiety comes with worry,uneasiness of the mind.Knowing it will not be the same,makes stomachs churn again, again.
# 232 OptimisticOptimism shows a tendency to lookforward to the more favorable side.Believing good, ultimately triumphsover evil, giving positive results.
#32 My Heart Aches for UnderstandingMy heart aches for understanding to fill lonely voids,deliberating alone, unavailable to others.Nourish my troubled soul and heart with infinite strength,then will come sustenance with love, as I watch and pray.Fill my longings with redemption, but don’t leave me alone.Take me to withdraw to your deserted place to pray.Be my unfailing companion. I want to be yours.
#11 Be True To YourselfThey say to thine own self be true.But what is truth for your own self?Is truth the real state of being?Is truth what we make for ourselves?Is truth simply dreams we repeat again?Making them true for thine own self,is it seeing into thyself?
#65 Planning Your Days Planning your days leads to flexibility with ease. Your schedule lists numerous tasks to keep you growing. Busy. No time to pop the corn or uncork the wine. You play at life with child-like ambition while doing and comprehending when you go and where you go to. Old age. Tired days. Winter years. Make you want to play house; cleaning, cooking, going out and about for errands, discovering new sights, looking forward to new days. Plan and prepare for next days with adjustments in time. Slow down, breathe, stretch, exercise, and enjoy life’s journey. It’s not only the scenery and the snacks you’ll miss by being too busy, going too fast, or too slow. You’ll miss senses for seeing and feeling when you go, along with the sense of hearing where you should go.

Quatrain Poems#236 PeacefulPeace denotes a state of harmonyand tranquility among people.Peaceful persons conduct themselves—free of commotion—almost serene-like.
#194 DeterminedDetermination sent me to settlethe dispute and decide who had control.Determined to conclude my purpose,and fix their positions with resolve.
#215 HopeHope expects that all wishes turn out well,feeling we can believe in what we want.Something hoped for helps me look-forward-towith desire and reasonable confidence. #159 Is Anybody Listening To Me Cry Is anybody listening to my cryknocking at the door of your heart?I’m asking if you would share my painand rejoice within my claim to joy.
Is anybody listening to my scream?Are you just phantom hosts in my dreams,all alone in the quiet of the moonlightwaiting for someone to come in?
A small voice from a world of mensings out to the traveler’s call.Answering my cry in the stillnessof the night, beneath the star-filled skyunder a world of it all.
Travelers join on the journey that’s going byand knock a second time. #62 Together As One We were together as one. We separated—everything gone. You said I ruined your life. I said when you left, you ruined mine. Many years passed, brought new days. I am reaching out to forgive you. Forgive me and take my hand. Let's be together as one again. #206. FearfulFear is such a distressing emotion,often aroused by impending danger.I worry about my being afraid,which proffers a propensity for fear? #208. FrightenedFright deplores such a sudden extreme fearbrought about by shockingly grotesque things.It scares and makes me extremely afraidof horribly frightful situations. #112. We Are Called to Measure Up We are called to measure up to Jesus,as we profess our faith.We try to imitate His presence so others recognizethe eloquence expressed in the fullness of His grace.His redeeming life and love triumphed over suffering andpresented us tenderness with promised fidelity.Enriched by His complimentary power of thesacramental element envisioning a rich new life,He directs us away in the midst of our defects to confirmthe Holy Spirit is pleased to dwell within us.As we look for Jesus to show His eminence in our lives,we are called to measure up.
