You are.... who you are!

Who am I?
One for the girls!

Who am I?
Yes, who really? Am I good, am I bad, am I fine?
What is my status, what is my line?
Who is the person staring back at me, yes, that one in the mirror?
Do I see myself as an angel or a terror?
Fat or thin, sexy or gross?
Which feature impress other people most?

Let me answer these questions for you, simply and quickly,
The Good Lord made us, each perfectly and uniquely.
So my lady friend, be proud of who you are!
When next you look in the mirror, see a STAR!!
Cozz that’s what you really are!
Always dress to impress, dress to kill,
Even if you don’t have the looks, you’ll always have the skill!

Who are we?

WHO ARE WE?
WRITTEN BY COLIN IMMELMAN
Can you recall, who made this ball?
The one we live on, called earth?
For everyone of us, a berth?
Let me tell you my friend, the Good Lord made it,
In our opinion, lovely, spacious and big.

Temporary it may well be,
But it is plain to see,
We are all wonders at our Maker’s hand,
For each of us, He has a unique life planned.

Now, we don’t always listen to His voice,
And often we make our own choice.
If only we’d accept that He is our Father, simply the Best,
Who wants us to follow in his footstep.

We are His children, big or small,
Short or tall,
His wishes for us one day, by and by,
To meet with Him, up there in the big blue sky!
So let’s take hands and pray:
“Dear Lord, please accept us, healthy and strong, weak and frail,
Fetch us soon Dear Lord,
For to stay down here too long, we cannot afford.
Please don’t leave us down here too long!”
That is our song.
Amen.

Jacky

Jackie - Hangman
By Colin Immelman

I know you are watching me,
Up there in your tree.
Perched on your branch, oh so cool,
Paying attention every time I clean my pool.
Jackie-hangman, those tiny black eyes scanning so sharp,
Forever to find a bite to eat, oh life’s so hard.

Now you are not my favorite bird, no not in the least,
Cos you scare away some others as on them you feast.
But by day you sing so light, so sweet,
Guess it’s when you’ve had ample to eat.
Only sometimes your voice is heavy and terrible,
Guess that’s after a kill and you’re about to nibble.

No matter what your preference of food,
I too think you are cool.
You’ll be safe in your domain,
As I am fortunately not part of your food chain.
So sit there on your branch and keep me company,
What with your singing and my whistling we make quite a symphony.

Thank Thee.

WHY?
Written by Colin Immelman
Why do we not more often say, "Lord, Thank Thee?
For ears to hear and eyes to see?"
Maybe we are not enough on our bended knee.
Why, we ask, is life so cruel?
Hey, take a closer look at the people who think they rule!

Celebrities, who are mere human beings,
Are put on pedestals where they get worshipped like kings and queens.
Why are we not paying closer attention to what the Good Book say?
What happened to Ascension Day?
Why was it abolished by those who have the say?
Abortions, divorces, child molestation, rape and prostitution,
Why? Are those acts really against our constitution?

Why is it so easy for us to hurt our neighbor and his feeling?
But are we not so handy in the process of forgiving, forgetting and healing?

Why must the Good Lord be kind to us, or forgive our sin?
A nation that destroys all the good that’s bin.
A world that worships Satan and his kind,
And who is totally blind,
To the beauty and purity of his creation,
Lost to us, a thankless and ignorant combination.

Don’t you think the Good Lord secretly sheds a tear in sorrow and disgust,
Because in mankind He can put no trust,
Why? He wants to save us all, rich and poor, dumb and wise,
To walk with Him one day in Paradise.
So come all, let’s take hands and kneel down in front of His feet,
Bow your heads and just say, “forgive me Lord, and Thank Thee!’’

My happiest day!!

MY HAPPIEST DAY!!
Written by Colin Immelman

Three happy years today, married to you my beautiful bride,
Generally speaking it was an easy ride.
Life’s a pure bliss with you by my side.
With this poem I thank thee my lovely bride,
For being with me during this time.

I know at times I can be a royal pain,
And even though I know there is nothing to gain,
By being angry, grumpy or have a short temper,
I still had to be reminded from time to time in order to remember.

Every day I thank the Lord for you in my life,
As you brought with you only love, peace and a life free of strife.
Like yesterday I remember our wedding day,
You walking down the isle, how lovely you looked on your way.

Today we are blessed with a family close to Him,
And it is my prayer that it will remain so forever, until we meet,
In the hereafter, if it is in His plan for us to be,
But for that we’ll have to wait and see.

In the mean time, I love you with all my heart,
And hope to see your lovely smile until death do us part.
I love you and only you my sweetheart!

So sweet!

Tears in a Bottle
You gave me strength to carry on,
When my body was so torn.
And lifted me on wings of love,
When my spirit was so worn.

Through all the times when in despair,
When I hung my head in shame.
You came to me when I knelt down,
As I called upon Your name.

And when my heart was troubled,
With more heartache than I could bear.
You caught each and every tear I shed,
In a bottle You have up there.

And when I get to heaven,
I'll kneel before Your feet.
You'll wipe away all my tears,
For my soul is Yours to keep.
---------------------------------------------------------
Whatever your problems are, take them to the all Mighty
He will comfort you and help you through them .
