DESCRIPTION
This was written as a reminder that you should always think of "the other guy" when you have a problem. You need to look at issues from both sides. This is something that I am trying to really work on. [163 words]
ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
Writing poetry should come from the heart. The words should just flow out without hesitation, and without a process of thinking and re-thinking. Write exactly what you see and feel. That in my humble opinion, is true emotion. That is pure poetry. I have been writing for several years now, and I really enjoy it. I like to write what I feel. I believe that writing poetry is inside everyone. It is a very basic instinct to express your thoughts to others. Some like to talk, while others (like myself), prefer to remain quiet, and then put their emotions down on paper. [December 1999]
AUTHOR'S OTHER TITLES (2) Hidden Value (Poetry) I think if you take the time to read this, you will find that it needs no explanation. [340 words] One Chance (Poetry) This is a story about how it is up to us (mankind), to make this world work. Everyone has to do their share, to make it possible to live in a safe and healthy society.

Emotions Steve Barney
Emotions run real deep
In every living soul
That's what makes us human
That's what makes us whole
And everybody's got them
Yes everybody does
And I don't know why that is
I guess it's just because
From the guy who lives in Washington
Who makes the laws of the land
To the homeless person on the street
Just reaching for a hand
From the teacher in our classroom
Who gives us homework everynight
To the annoying guy at work
Who thinks he is always right
From the cop who walks his beat
Just trying to do his part
To our parents who have always loved us
Right from the very start
From our sisters and our brothers
And family everywhere
From the people who say they don't
But I know they really care
From the seniors who have taught us
How tho live and how to try
To the little baby child
Whose job it is to cry
So you see it doesn't matter
If your low or if your high
If you know the answer
Or if your asking why
Because everybody feels them
Yes everybody can
Whether they're a child
A woman or a man
