Poets For Peace

Humanity

Covering truth with propaganda
hidden behind false reassurances
that all will be fine with soldiers left behind
fighting for peace and their country.

Many villians wearing different hats
preaching the end of terrorism and torture
of prisoners humiliated by the lack of sensitivity
and getting immune to emotion.

The perils of war beating them down in morale
with slaps on the wrists of major crimes of humanity
taking away the negative attention from themselves.

How can they sleep at night when the world does not rest
from the sufferings of humanity!

Equality


Freedom in good faith sent around the world
in helping your fellow man in unity of spirit,
working towards universal goal for a positive solution
instead of revolution.

Traveling souls to far off lands searching for a peaceful resolve,
voicing their messages of wisdom.

Stand up for equality and rise above adversity
for the poor and the sick!

It could be you one day in that position so share
what little you have and your hearts will feel content,
and full of gladness in doing something worthwhile.

Calm a crying child who is left behind to fend for herself.

Homes are destroyed and parents are missing,
in the every day battle of life to stay alive and survive
just to get through another day.

No more eyes closed in denial!

It will not go away in the news and on television sets
in newspapers you read on mistakes and regret,
then deciding our fate with a push of a button.

It can all dissolve into human dust in a ghost town of haunts,
and then it will be too late.

Thoughts arise like a breeze upon the meadow.
Moments of time rush by,
not to be captured, only to be appreciated . . .
another opportunity to give thanks.
Carpe Dium,
Mimi

All Are One

All are One, and One is All.
My passion burns to heed the call!
To know that loving Spirit lives
and grows within us as we give.

Yet marching through the maze of time
opening the doors of mind,
I often see a gaping wall
(that never was a wall at all!)

Now, seeing life a different way
letting go of yesterday, separation fades away!
My soul sings out, “Hooray! Hooray!

The I in you, the you in me
expanding into all we be,
beyond the known, to liberty!
The oneness is what sets us free.

We play this holographic game
till we return from whence we came.
Where some will walk and some will run . . .
as notes within a song that’s sung!
. . . The glory of our Spirit plays
it’s music in so many ways!

I honor you, I honor me
and in God’s love we all are free
to choose for peace and harmony
in universal symphony.

Where All are One, and One is All,
compassion brings down all the walls
when WE step forth to heed the call!

********

One world! One people! God bless us all!

Melting Pot


Melting pot of cultures
Different races and beliefs
Wanting freedom and unity
Working together as a team
Of human beings
Wanting the same globally
Celebrating diversity
With positive goals in mind
Stirring and simmering the pot of emotions
On the right temperature of warmth

Solving problems and spreading it around the world
Doing it ourselves individually in making a difference
For justice and liberty for all
In the melting pot of universal hope and love
Shared and seasoned with the right ingredients
Around the world in peace

Soul Press & Self Spin

"I" have no self, no soul...
My essence is only the whole
The fluff and fur by my name
Roll on a loom in a cosmic game

The spindles that thread my genes
Are souls older than the Essenes
And they are only baby dieties
In hands that wove the Pleiades

We want a manual to build a Self
We can't just buy one off the shelf
We save up our pneumenoplasm
Scrimp to spirit and love by orgasm

Press this precious astral carbon
Into lifetimes of the here and gone
Or like me just lounge on the loom
And selflessly unfurl from the boom

Please take the time to read my story and check my site out

In the Bill For Children's Rights of Divorce under paragraph 3,13 and 17. It states the child(ren) have the right to reasonable and continued access and contact to the natural parent(s) and extended family,without the interferce of the other parent.In the case of child apprension,CPS/MCFD assumes the role of parent.

HIGHLIGHTS TYPED OUT FROM A RECENT PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT: PG 41 PARA 1: MS E HAS ONLY 3 HOUR VISITATION TWICE A MONTH - ONE CAN CONCLUDE THAT DISABLED OR,ANY SINGLE PARENT WOULD BE CHALLENGED WITH THIS ACCESS. MORE FREQUENT AND LONGER PERIODS OF ACCESS THAT PERMIT ROUTINES AND NORMAL. PARENT - CHILD INTERACTION WORK BEST FOR CHILDREN VISITING THEIR NONRESIDENTIAL PARENT, IF THAT PARENT IS RESPONSIBLE. PG 42 PARA

2: ATTACHMENT OF THE BOYS TO THEIR MOTHER IS CERTAIN, AND HER DESIRE TO BE A HANDS ON PARENT IS CLEAR, AS IS HER INTELLECTUAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL CAPACITY. PG 42 PARA 3: MS E HAS EXPERIENCED THE HELPLESSNESS AND FRUSTRATION OF BEING DEPENDANT UPON MCFD FOR SEEING HER CHILDREN, AND AT THE SAME TIME, HAVING NO COMMUNICATIONS OR CONNECTION WITH THE FOSTER PARENT, WHO WORKS MORE CLOSELY WITH MCFD THAN SHE DOES. LAURIE APPEARS TOBE RELATIVELY HEALTHY EMOTIONALLY, HER ANGER IS UNDERSTANDABLE AND SHE HAS FOCUSED IT IN CONSTRUCTIVE WAYS.

PG 110 (c) Psychological Report: Parenting Capacity of Laurie Edberg. (October 10,2000) (i) Ms. E's History. Dr. H. did very thorough history of Ms. E puts many of her behaviours into perspective, but as a survivor rather than a victim of her medical, family, and social struggles. Laurie, today (2005), must be seen as a successful person striving to have as full a life for herself and her children as possible. Neither neglect, physical/sexual/emotional abuse, nor physical disabilities predict inevitable psychological dysfunction. Studies of survivors show that individuals have a unique response to trauma "that is the complex interplay between life experiences and the developing self (McCann & Pearlman, 1990). Dr. H's Mental Status Exam of Ms. E indicated normal functioning.

PG 116 1) ASSUMED DIFFICULTIES DUE TO DISABILITY. 2) REASONING,ANALYTICAL SKILLS EXCELLENT. 5) COMMENT ON UNDUE STRESS L IS/HAS BEEN SUBJECT TO. 6) L IS A SURVIVOR - NORMAL FUNCTIONING. 7) NO DISORDERS OF DIFFICULTIES,PSYCHOLOGICAL. PG 120 2.6) LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY OF MCFD. 3.3) FOSTERPARENTS' DISDAINFUL ATTITUDE TOWARDS MS EDBERG. 3.4) L DESIRES MORE POSITIVE RESPECTFUL ARRANGEMENTS WITH OTHER CAREGIVERS. PG 122 5) ATTACHMENTS CONFIRMED. 5.5) BOYS PROUD OF THEIR MOTHER. PG 155 KEY PASSAGE 20.14) MOTHER NEEDS HELP, BOYS NEED THEIR MOTHER. PG 156 4) MCFD'S FOCUS ON BLAME,SHORTCOMINGS (REAL AND ASSUMED) RATHER THAN ON STRENGTHS. MORE MONEY SPENT ON KEEPING L SEPERATE FROM HER CHILDREN THAN ON PROVIDING APPROPRIATE ASSESSMENTS/SERVICES OF SUPPORT TEAM.//MY STORY IS AS FOLLOWED//

This is the A typical story of how MCFD/CAS treats special needs families. The first child was born May,1990. The twins were born Sept,1996.All 3 boys have ADHD and now after years of wasted time, one of the twins has been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome and possibly the oldest has as too. From June 1990 till this date the children have been repeatedly apprehended.The familie lives in Courtenay,BC,Canada.The only crime that has ever een commited is of having ataxia and a tracheotomy.There has never been any evidence of any type of abuse. There have been repeatedly labeled with neglect.For the simple fact that ability to run after the twins or project voice loud enough is limited. There have in the past succeeded in my court cases,until Febuary of 2002.The oldest child was placed in continuing care in Febuary 2002,because a couple years earlier it was basically forced on person to sign a voluntary care agreement.Person was told by the social worker at the time,that person either place him in voluntary care or she would apprehend all three boys.In Febuary of 2002,the twins were returned to the custody.Only to have them reapprehended a few months later.The twins were placed in continuing care in November of 2004. In November of 2002,Person was given a court order allowing for 4 hours once a week unsupervised with the oldest child.Since the twins were apprehended in June of 2002,There have been varied visits lasting from once a week to 4 days a week for a few hours at a time.Since the court case in November of 2004.The visits and access has been limited to once a month for 1.5 hours.Even though I was invited by the judge to apply for reasonable access.

I ALSO NEED TO MENTION,IN THIS COURT CASE THAT EVEN THE MCFD'S WITNESSES EVEN TESTIFIED THE MOTHER AND CHILDREN LOVE EACHOTHER AND THERE IS/WAS NO EVIDIDENCE OF ABUSE.

There is a appeal in the supreme court set for August 2005,now on March 5,08 for the appeal to be heard and the access order to be heard in family court in 2006,which was denied. On April 14,2005 in the social workers office.She had stated in front of myself and my 2 local advocates,that there was every intention of putting boys up for adoption and the appeal before the courts had no weight on their intentions.But then after a hour of discussion,she agreed to increase my access to 2 visits a month for 3 hours.Feb/06,. Now after appeal has been dismissed in Mar 3,08. Access has been further decreased to 1.5 hours once a month.The next court date is set for June 7/06. Eventhough s.15 and s.55 in the BC legislation and Children,Family Services Act discribes how there is a obligation by MCFD and other government agencies to put proper supports as needed into the home to keep the paramount family optics in place.This has never been properly done. It seems that to MCFD it is somehow prudent to place children in care,where it costs thousands of dollars a month. Than to keep the children in the home of a loving parent, where it would cost a fraction of that money to put proper supports in the home.

IF YOU ARE A ADVOCATE FOR DISABLED PARENTS,I COULD CERTAINLY
USE YOUR ASSISTANCE.YOUR ASSISTANCE WILL BE A ADDED BENEFIT TO THE ASSISTANCE I ALREADY HAVE.THIS DELAY IS NOT JUSTICE TO MY CHILDREN.

Universal Orchestra


Universal orchestra plays natural rhythm

Musical instrument of sound serenading the soul

Guiding spirit in harmony and peace

Heart strings sing melody of angel chorus

Dancing in heaven embracing life

Freedom in movement soars beyond the stars

Ballet in sky of renewed step

How many points upon a sphere
As angels on a pin head
One heart cries out
we turn
to walk towards the never-ending of tomorrow
As one we are united in her cause
As one we stand together like a heart beat
pulse around the world.
Surrender, forgive, release, let pass
We have a world to build together
Based on need and urgency, not greed and haste
Chasten now our ways dear mother
Lord of all we call to Thee
That friend might no longer fear another
but towards the truth in unfolding harmony
We rush towards infinity with a yearning Love.
