BIG, BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL
BIG, BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL ...that is ME!!!
ALWAYS PROUD FOR OTHERS TO SEE!!!
NO MATTER WHAT I DO OR SAY
SHARING BLESSINGS FROM GOD EACH NEW DAY
THROUGH LOVE AND HONOR IS ALL I KNOW
WEARING EMOTIONS THAT WILL ALWAYS SHOW
HURTS, ACHES OR EVEN DEEP PAIN
TRAVELING MY JOURNEY
FROM SUNSHINE TO RAIN
ALWAYS RUNNING NOT KNOWING WHERE TO TURN
KNOWING SO MANY LESSONS OF LIFE SHE MUST LEARN
SOMETIMES SCARED TO FINISH, SOMETIMES SCARED TO START
ESPECIALLY WITH LOVE AND HURTS OF THE HEART
KNOWNG MEN AND THINKING THIS IS LOVE
ONLY GOD KNOWS FROM ABOVE
AND WHEN HE SENDS THE TRLY REAL THING
SCARED TO BELIEVE IT COULD BE MORE THAN A FLING
HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN IT ALL COMES TO YOU?
IN A TOTAL PACKAGE SMILING SO SWEETLY SO TRUE
BEING VUNERABLE AND KNOWING YOU TRULY DO TRUST
BECAUSE OF GOD AND YOUR HEART YOU KNOW YOU MUST
WHEN IT ALL BOILS DOWN ALL THAT MATTERS
IS THE JOY YOU FEEL AS YOUR HEART CLATTERs
WITH NO REASONING OR RHYME AND GENTLE AS A DOVE
THIS MY DEAR IS CALLED REAL LOVE
NO MATTER HOW YOU SIZE IT , BIG OR SMALL
SHORT, TALL , LITLLE AND BEST OF ALL
DISTANCE AND TIME ARE THINGS TO LAUGH ABOUT
BECAUSE IT'S HERE AND YOU KNOW IT AND HAVE TO SHOUT
NO CARING ANYMORE IF THE WORLD HEARS YOU BACK
OR EVEN KNOWING IF YOU ARE TRAVELLING THE RIGHT TRACK
BECAUSE TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED AND YOU HAVE ONLY TODAY
TO ENJOY THE MOMENT AND AND YOUR SOUL WILL KNOW AND SAY
BECAUSE POSSESSIONS AND WEALTH MEANS NOTHING TO ME
BEING HAPPY AND DOING RIGHT CARRIES A CERTAIN GLEE
IS AS FAR AS MY EYES AND SIGHT WILL EVER SEE
RICHES WILL ALWAYS FOLLOW AS EVER I FLEE
ONLY PEOPLE DEAR THAT KNOWS MY HEART
WILL SEE AND FEEL NO MATTER HOW SMART
THE TRUE ESSENCE AND FULLNESS OF THEE
BIG, BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL
REFLECTS LITTLE OLE ME

ALBERT YOU ARE MY REAL MAN
Albert You are My Real Man
Albert You are My Real Man
You make everything perfect
As much as you can
With a smile, a gesture a touch of You
Melt away all troubles like sweet morning dew
It is your love, the flicker of a grin
That lets me know
We will always win
Loosing teeth,a leg or a arm
Your love overpowers any amount of harm
Just singing your songs warms my heart
Your intellect Baby, you are so smart
Your vision, your plight you've been there before
Oh Albert, You are my future
The man I truly adore
Whiles others say words and like all the rest
Your actions run deep
You sincerely know best
For we have both traveled the road up ahead
Never wondering about shelter or what we are fed
God guides YOU as YOU do ME
Oh Albert, I love you and others can see
A real true love in all that WE be
Like Romeo and Juliette is written on the wall
Our love will endure , it already stands tall
As we know others can not stand
The power of Me or YOU or of our land
For God has ordained us for all to see
As it is written
And it shall be
You and I shall always be free
To love as we must, to support one another
Like mother,father,sister and brother
Oh Albert my love there is no other
You Love me completely as best you can
You are my life,
YOU are my REAL MAN!!!

Good Morning my sweet husband, Albert!!!
"I'm so glad you stayed with me all through the night. I love how we lay inside each other arms and breath together and our hearts seem to beat to the rhythm of our souls.
Two hearts one beat!
Yes! This is real.
Gently caressing the love we both feel.
Oh Albert you have known me for a thousand years.
You make me melt and kiss away all my tears.
Two hearts one beat! Like a raging Fire.
My love you comfort my wildest desire.
In a far away distance, and yet so near…
Warm heart, soft hands there is no fear.
Two hearts one beat! Bringing our eyes to meet.
Committing to each other conquering every defeat.
Knowing our union was a Divine call.
To weather any storm, standing together tall.
Two hearts one beat! We pledge our love.
Giving all Thanks to God up above,
For he has brought us together for a reason.
Through sickness, and in health, and every season.
Two hearts one beat! So husband to me.
Come enter your manhood, and you will see
Your wife surrenders, and never flees.
A love made in heaven we both agreed.
Two hearts one beat! Oh you feel so good.
With eyes saying, wife do as you should.
You know I like how you please your woman
Oh husbands take me too as only you can.
Two hearts one beat! Singing sounds both in tune
In the stillness of the night.
In the light of the moon.
He lay, she lay together heads and feet.
Two hearts one beat!
one beat…
one beat...

MY ODE TO MEMPHIS
MY ODE TO MEMPHIS
BY TEMPIE
COPYRIGHT © 2007
Thank you my beloved for letting me go.
I'm coming back to visit,
You know I can not stay long.
I can see your smiles,
Over 6,000 miles.
You feel my beat,
As I pat my feet,
To our rhythm and our blues,
To our soul that Memphis grooves.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
Crossing our beautiful West Memphis Bridge,
Riding Proud Mary down the Mississippi River,
Taking our Trolley Downtown,
Dancing on Historic Beale Street.
Smelling all our Southern sweat and tears,
Of Our People through the years.
The Lorraine Motel where our brother
Dr. King, was shot and killed.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
All Nineteen floors of Baptist Hospital,
Torn down to dust.
Working in Pathology,
On the second floor.
Seeing Elvis come in,
On it's Helicopter Pad.
Hearing Rev. Al Green,
Preach in his Church.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
Sitting front row,
In our Mid-South Coliseum,
Watching the sweat of Luther, Teddy,
Earth, Wind & Fire, Gladys & her Pips,
The O’Jays, The Tempations, B.B.King.
And our Memphis own Bar’Kays.
Or at The Orpheum seeing Lou Rawls,
Lena Horne, The Wiz and more.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
Watching Michael Jackson & The Jackson Five,
Perform atop of Woolco Department Store.
Down Third street,
Pass the Post Office.
Close to LeMoyne-Owen College,
Around the block Stax Records.
Attending Central Academy of Music,
Then seeing our Issac Hayes.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
I’m coming back to visit,
And I won’t stay long.
Tipping In, Tipping Out,
As you always let me go.
Nashville to MeHarry, Fisk,
W.B.Dubois, Hank Aaron.
Or the Bluegrass Kentucky Derby,
The horses at Churchill Downs.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
To Windy City Chicago,
Taking My Memphis, My Soul,
My Rhythm and My Blues.
Cable TV, modelling close to Oprah,
Where she got her start.
Another black woman makes her mark.
Jessie Jackson, Mayor Washington,
Walter Peyton, Chicago Bulls.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
Twenty five years in My Memphis,
Twenty five years in Chicago.
Endorsing another Black Woman,
Being Democratic for President of USA.
Combining My Soul, My Rhythm, My Blues,
To make another Memphis Move,
Back to Mom and Dad,
To see their last smiles.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
Back in My Memphis with Family,
Seeing Whitehaven, Lakeview Gardens.
Friends, Geeter High School.
Passing the gates of Graceland on Highway 51,
Having foundations concrete,
To write my first Novel.
It was, Feelings that
Moved both my feet.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
To yet another great defeat,
Taking My Memphis and all within,
To find My Soulmate and My Best Friend.
Now My Home is 6,000 miles away.
Memphis, you know why I visit now
And I can not stay.
You let me take My Soul, My Rhythm, My Blues,
To mix it with My Reggae to make another Groove.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
To become a Brand New Me,
A New Soul Sister with A New Reggae Brother.
With the Roots of My Memphis,
And My Past all together,
Across the waters in a different weather.
Where people move faster,
Driving on different sides.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
Where Pigeons are everywhere,
Even in Queens’ Square.
Her face is on the purple money,
It’s not the same as your green.
But the essence of it’s loyalty is ever so true.
My Soulmate was born there in England 1962.
He loves both of us so dear,
So My beloved Memphis don’t you fear.
Many were then,
Now they are not.
I’ll bring him to visit across Our West Memphis Bridge,
Down Proud Mary on The Mississippi River.
With his guitar, his poems, years in Dominica to Beale Street too.
He’ll love My Memphis now his town!
As it now belong to both of Us!
He’ll just smile driving on opposite sides,
Spending green money looking for the Pigeons.
We Thank You Memphis for letting me go!
Many were then,
Now they are not.
