Manager Poet

Who hasn’t been called one?
Fact is, life can and should be fun.
However, real character does count.
Let’s liken it to a savings account.

Everyday is created for love.
Look inside and then above.
Each of us gives to one another.
We learned that from our mother.

She completed her doctorate with nothing to fear.
Teaching generations of managers was her gift.
Her students were never bored or left adrift.

These servants help people become productive again.
OT is a wonderful way to serve all now and then.
Many of us take for granted the simplest things in life.
Sometimes an accident or illness can cause us strife.
...

It’s a way to take the neck of grace and put it in the hangman’s rope.
Rules, rules, and more rules for the sake of rules gives you false hope.
Legalsim reduces the spirit of what has been given to a checklist.
Missing out on knowing that Jesus has always been in our midst.
...

Each day I recount what people, places, and
things I am grateful for.
Doing this has made my list grow more and more.
This little exercise the book 'The Secret' has taught.

We’ve heard the words used on “The Apprentice.”
Ah, but lessons can be learned so let’s reminisce.
Each week, we saw teams competing to win.
One loser will be fired much to their chagrin.

A few years ago I lost my way.
Christians call it “going astray”.
No shepherds went and looked for me.
To most, I was just more human debris.
...

Some of us fly through life with the greatest of ease.
Look at the amazing men and women on life's trapeze.
In this journey through life, do you require a safety net?
Some feel the need for a net to minimize a relationship regret.
...

His hair is ashen and gold,
To most, a pleasant surprise
His neckties are never old
He wears Vicki Davis’ ties

At the office, I needed to fill a position.
Finding the right fit is every manager's mission.
Someone from church wanted to apply.
My wife told me to give her a try.

A kind soul was born April 22,1958.
She lived life not relying on fate.
These words are about Patty Wessel.
On May 3,2008, she left her earthly vessel.

I’ve had numerous barbers and stylists while on this earth.
Yet, when I sit in her chair she gives me I feeling of worth.
I am not just another paying customer in for a hair cut.
Her chair is a safe haven and better than any old hut.
...

All who walk this earth needs a truly good friend.
When a man meets a woman they sometimes pretend.
For some of us, we seek a best friend who can be a mate.
We all know life is short yet I believe she is worth the wait.

He opens his tackle box and takes a look.
Carefully, he selects a bait with a treble hook.
A hook of three is not always better than one.
The odds of getting snagged increase my son.

As I write, I reflect upon my blessed life.
I use to be a husband and had a lovely wife.
No one is perfect in life or love, not even me.
As a couple, we were in the bourgeoisie.

Often there are circumstances that he cannot ignore.
Dadhood is a calling and it is not always by choice.
When you find yourself in a dad moment, just rejoice.

It’s Friday and I’m driving my 4Runner to work.
Travel mug in hand, I enjoy life’s simple perk.
I park my gas guzzling SUV and begin to walk.
My eyes focus on the top of my cup like a hawk.

Is the opposite of beast really a beauty?
I'll explain the word using poetry as my duty.

In fact, his behavior a woman might hold dear.
