ENTER JADE DESIRE



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



I`ve seen things I cannot describe

Seen places I dare not mention

Come face to face with Death and walked away with Life

Came face to face with Tragedy, Pain, and Agony

Met them in their own homes...

And still I`m here today

Because I`ve found love in the strangest of places

It`s like lifting a useless shell and finding a million $ pearl

and I`m glad I`ve found love, I`m glad I found you...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------





FIRST give thanks to GOD in heaven from which you came..

THEN....







MAKE YOURSELF KNOWN and MAKE SURE YOU SIGN MY GUEST BOOK!!!

WITH WINGS OF INSPIRATION

YOU DEPEND

Since I have included everything else on this page, I might as well include the specifics of what I look for in a man. Common goals, common interests, near my age, intelligence, compassion, nice skin, nice eyes, nice lips and nice smile never hurt anything :). I have to be somewhat attracted to him (that goes without saying). He has to be able to keep me on my toes... keep me laughing, keep me smiling. He should R-E-S-P-E-C-T me-- oh and- that`s a must! If you fit the script- drop me a line.. and if you don`t fit the WHOLE script- you can still drop me a line. I LOVE TO CONVERSATE!

POET`S CORNER



His Eye`s Were Watching God

A CHARMING GENTLEMAN HE WAS

STANDING TALL LIKE A TREE

-UNWAVERED BY THE WIND

HIS EYES WERE WATCHING GOD

AS HE MOVED THROUGH THE CLOUDS

AND HE COULDN`T EVEN SEE ME

THOUGH I WAS NOT HIDDEN IN THE MIDNIGHT`S OBSCURITY

FOR I WORE TIGHT SKIRTS

AND TRIED TO BE AS VISIBLE AS I COULD BE

DOING WHAT I THOUGHT I SHOULD TO PLEASE HIM

TO MAKE HIM DESIRE ME

BUT HIS EYES WERE ON GOD---

WATCHING HIM IN HIS HEAVENLY GLORY

AND HE COULDN`T SEE ME IN ALL MY WORDLY FURY

BUT MAYBE IF I WOULD WATCH GOD TOO

KEEP MY EYES STAYED ON HIM

OUR EYES WOULD SOMEHOW MEET AND WE COULD BE ONE

ONE IN GOD

ONE UNITED, ORDAINED BY HIS OWN COVENANT

ONE- WATCHING GOD



------------------------------------------------------------------------



AS IF?

As if caught in a lie

aint bad enough

you persist and insist that you`re truthful,

honest

As if gazing at her wasn`t bad enough you resist my

desire for a valid explaination andattempt to kiss my wounds

As if lustful thoughts weren`t bad enough

You prolong and transgress your apology to me

As if "this is your last chance"

didn`t sound real enough

You think another chance awaits...

Keep waiting...

****Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he who trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him.

-Psalm 32:10

Peace, Love, and Sophistication.



There comes a time in life when every man and every woman must make a choice- leave the

foolishness behind or be devoured by it.

`Poet`s Corner





An exerpt from:

The Art of "Black" Man-made Ecstasy



Such charm lies in your eyes

Your butter brown eyes

Glistening and Glowing

Inside your symmetric face

Your hair like the wool of a lamb

Colorfully designed to match the color of your face

Bronze, vanilla, mahogany,chocolate

Golden-almond sunrise , licorice night

And oh that chiseled frame-

It makes your strength apparent

I adore you in your shyness; am submissive as you anger

And that smile, that bright "soul-glows" smile, beneath beautiful full lips wet with dew

Tasty and as close to perfection as you seem- you are- You appear in my dreams

as vivid as any reality in life

The joys of all the better things

Your skin, your eyes, your frame, your touch:

Your lips that sweetly brisk mine

Those same lips on the nape of my neck could send tingles up my spine

oooh, you are SO fine,

My beautiful Black man.

This is deep-- for any skeptics out there---



[excerpt from Forgiven by Alanis Morissette]



I sang alleluia in the choir

I confessed my darkest deeds to an envious man...

I had one more stupid question... [and]

What I learned I rejected but I believe again

I will suffer the consequence of this inqui
