                         Sabiduria den nos alegria !!



                                                                              Skirbi pa Ruthy “Lady Ruth” Vrieswijk-Bergen




                                                                                 It’s not up to them to accept you and love you
                                                                                 It’s not up to them to tell you to be you
                                                                                 Still I express it democratically in my poem
                                                                                 When all you want is to be accepted and love by all
                                                                                 When the majority of people forget on who to call
                                                                                 The Creator God of all human kind

                                                                                 But the material things make us blind
                                                                                 You might think your spirit and soul is in the wrong body
                                                                                 And maybe it is so, it’s not up to me to dicide who’s right or wrong
                                                                                 When you put God first in your life, He will teach you His lessons,
                                                                                 his songs
                                                                                 But today’s youth don’t want to wait that long, they don’t get along
                                                                                 Today’s youth want things for free, they don’t want the hard work

                                                                                 They choose the easy way out, and sometimes make some moves in
                                                                                 the dark
                                                                                 Tonight’s theme did not want me to stay home because as Grandma
                                                                                 Poet
       AWEden nos relato semanal, nos ta comparti un poema prosa, cu             I always come with some sort of a message to inspire us all
       nos a inspira pa Poetry Night cu a wordo cancela e luna aki, cu un        If you are not sure of who you are in the soul
       tema hopi delicado, pero cu nos a scirbie manera e inspiracion a bin      You can not be happy in a strange body
       na curazon.                                                               If you are not sure of who’s body that is
       E tin un toke spiritual aden. Nos no ta perfecto, nos niun ta, y nos      You can not be happy in a strange soul
       no ta aki pa huzga niun hende tampoco. Como Poeta, mi ta comparti         Every person in this beautiful Universe has his or her own call

       esaki, asina mes cu podise mi lo bai haña un of mas critica y of          To be happy, to love God , love him or herself and to love others
       reaccion.  Dios sa, pakico mi a inspira e poema prosa aki na un           We all are sisters and brothers
       idioma cu no ta mi idioma materno, podise pa logra toca e curazon         We all are sinners and make mistakes everyday
       di hobennan cu ainda ta struggle y no sa ken nan ta of kico pa scoge.     Only God can keep us safe
       sea bo mes semper y sea feliz ta meta di nos tur.                         Only God knows our struggle

                                                                                 Only God knows how we feel
       Why Pride in the flesh ?                                                  We don’t see Him, but He’s real

       Being proud of yourself
       Of who you were                                                            He gave us choices, he gave us a free will
       Of who you are                                                            But we all fail Him and ourselves still
       Of who you will be                                                        You don’t have to agree with me, I’m already sixty three
       Is not up to me                                                           My most beautiful life experiences came after I invited Jesus into
       You see,                                                                  my heart
       Life might be busy with its ups and downs                                 My most wonderful lessons and feelings in life, unique and smart
       Life might be busy with a headache or a frown                             I am not perfect, neither are you, neither are they
       Life is beautiful filled with fun and laughter                            Just reflect on your talented life with wisdom, let them stay

       With Covid these days life is moving faster and faster                    In your heart, mind, soul and body, whisper a prayer
       The thing is, we all want more                                            Make talking to God a good habit daily and before going to sleep
       We don’t care where things come from                                      He can touch you with His forgiveness and love, so deep
       We are full of love for material shit                                     You will wake up with gratitude and understanding
       We are full of fear of being hurt                                         You will be blessed and less demanding
       We are not in this world only to fit in                                   Your life will be in the Light
       We are full of anxiety not to be complete                                 Just me, Grandma Poet, with some sort of insight

       We forget to be discreet                                                  Be the blessing you are meant to be in this life time
       We forget our roots, we forget the humbleness                             Be talented, be happy, be humble, be at peace with yourself first
       We forget to be proud of ourselves                                        Before allowing your flesh to hunger with thirst
       With the gender we were born                                              Why Pride in the flesh, when you can shine in flesh and in spirit.
       And we want to feel different from the inside out                         Why Pride in the mind, when you can be yourself at your best
       We want to climb the stairs and show off with our shouts                  In the body given by your Creator of life and love......
