Emma Thompson

If you don't want women to do whatever they need to do then you must provide them with food, you must provide them with shelter and their basic human rights.

The basic needs

If you don’t have one
Wonder if you come
When you don’t come home,
It is a basic need.

If you don’t have one
Listen to the feelings
You want to share with,
It is a basic need.

If you don’t have one
Attend you away
In case you fall sick,
It is a basic need.

Food, clothes, shelter
Alone aren’t the basic needs.

The Majestic Tree

They bow to the winds that pass
The beautiful majestic trees,  
With arms up toward the skies
They laugh in the summer breeze. 
They provide shade and shelter for the bee,  
He plants history, who plants a tree.
They provide lumber for houses, and barns
For a roof to cover our heads,  
Lumber for aeroplanes, ships and cars
And for caskets, to bury our dead. 
This is only a few uses you see
He plants history, who plants a tree.

They provide rest for the weary man
Food and protection, for many wild things,  
Home and sanctuary, for millions of birds
And rock their babies to sleep in swings. 
Their magestic grace so wild and free
He plants history, who plants a tree.

The Forgotten Hungry And Homeless

The forgotten hungry and homeless nowadays to be found everywhere
There are millions of them close to a billion in the bigger World out there
The refugees of drought stricken Lands and of warlords and the homeless of Poverty Street
Basic human rights of them are denied shelter from the weather and enough for to eat
In a Human World where everyone is supposed to be equal after all we breathe in the same air
But the poor and the homeless and the hungry cannot feel that life is very fair
The minority those who are too wealthy people with too much of everything
Are people that many look up to though their praises I cannot sing,
In an egalatarian Human World everyone would have a home to live in
And nobody would be without food and well dressed and not ragged and thin
The poor by the day growing poorer and that does seem a sad thing to say
And the refugee camps of the World are all overcrowded today,
'Tis sad to think that from the poverty of many that a minority does stand to gain
And I with enough of food and shelter have no reason for to complain.

They Are But a Mirage of a Re-enactment Induced

'This is 'not' a recession.
This affect can be best described,
As a 'slowdown'.
A progressive retrieval,
From an accustomed forward process.
And that process
Is currently undergoing a deterence,
To enable a fortification of principles to be applied.

A recess that has decreased an increased movement,
Should not confuse the use of an installation
Of targeted limits that have been placed
To offset the appearance
Of a reflected weakened economy.

And a recession by definition...
Is not what we wish for any of our followers to conceive.
Since it is our belief,
Admitting to perceptions does not provide concrete evidence!
And under these circumstances...
No one has the balls to admit the obvious!

Are there any further questions? '

Yes!
When you say...
And I quote: 'No one has the balls to admit the obvious! '
Exactly,
What is meant by that?

'Let me see if I can provide more clarity!
That which was but isn't the way it use to be,
Should not be as much of a concern.
However...
If that which should be is given an added 'boost'
In perception...
That perception of what could be...
Can and will sustain a quality of life,
More than the reality of current conditions!
And supercedes and suspends them from their delusions.
This statement is what I meant by that.
And coming forth as I have done...
Only solidifies the great sacrifices I am willing to shoulder!

I see!
So in other words,
Not used in this press conference...
If millions are homeless because they have lost their jobs.
And can not provide food or shelter...
Or basic human comforts,
They are but a mirage of a re-enactment induced,
By bad diets and lack of exercise?
And those who view them...
Are focusing on their condition with a re-enforcement
They have inflicted upon themselves,
Because...
If improper nutrients are not daily digested...
Blood levels will affect one's belief system?

'Exactly!
I could not have said that better myself.
And 'that' is the point,
I have been trying to make for eight years!
You have a resumé?
Leave it with my staff.
You would make an excellent speechwriter!
I understood that perfectly.
Well done! '

Families are the tie that reminds us of yesterday, provide strength and support today, and give us hope for tomorrow. No government, no matter how well-intentioned, or well-managed, can provide what our families provide.

Harijan

If you utter the word harijan
You would be prosecuted.
How you dare to takeaway
Their lands, their houses
Their foods and clothings
It invites atrocities.
Provide them proper education
Provide them medical facilities
Provide them eyes and ears
Open their doors and windows
Let them assess the world
That it is theirs.

Child Labour

Social activists are going hoarse,
And forcing people to take off goods from stores
Made by child labour.
I wonder if they are doing any favour.

Has any body found answers?
Have you found a sponsor?
To help the poor who live below poverty line,
Crying foul is all very fine,

Who will provide them necessities?
So they can live in dignity,
Find a decent vocation,
Food, shelter, clothing and education.

It’s easy to cry foul,
And from rooftops howl
It’s against human rights,
Without a clue about their plight.

It’s a fundamental right,
Though that has been a oversight.
Ban child labour has become fashionable
Making the employers accountable
Yes we should check the exploitation,
But what to do till we find a practical solution?

For To Reclaim The Night

They march uptown for to reclaim the night
Carrying lighted candles and small battery hand lights
Their peaceful protest for basic human right
And in solidarity you will find much might.

They march for women house bound after dark
Who after sundown shun the street and park
Who bolt their doors a shield against their fear
The fear of danger to them ever near.

They march for women for a crime free life
For the rape victim and the battered wife
And for women wronged by men in every way
Such cases as we read of every day.

When Emily Pankhurst at Epsom race track died
Her sacrifice for women World wide
From there the fight for women's rights began
For all those suffering at the hands of man.

The anti women libbers well might say
That women nowadays have things their own way
But women still victims of rape and foul play
Such stories in newspapers every day.

And till women after sundown leave their home
And without fear walk unlit street alone
Then women must march to reclaim the night
And protest for a basic human right.

The World of Joy

This day I provide the world with joy,
My price for the company is brilliant,
I kept reasons too many for the toy.

Joyous occasions occur from the word to annoy,
My pencils are spun on something abhorrent,
This day I provide the world with joy.

What may cuddle or embrace is an alloy
From the heart, so hard and tough, inconsistent,
I kept reasons too many for the toy.

Then we wandered too far in the forest of a boy
Who through all his pride was obedient,
This day I provide the world with joy.

I have a ghost of martyrdom, a choirboy,
Who sang a tune to the nonviolent,
I kept reasons too many for the toy.

Inside I am happy, happier to employ,
Since our times of nourishment,
I kept reasons too many for the toy,
This day I provide the world with joy.

The Basic Rights (Of All People)

can we not learn
from our brothers and sisters
in Egypt....

how hard it is to take
freedom back once they take hold?
can we not see the value,

the right to vote and be counted,
the right to speak and be heard,
even at the cost of lives?

can we not see
that this battle is worldwide?
to restore freedom and dignity

to the human race!
the basic rights of all people
to work, to eat, and have shelter....

to breathe, and be human,
are at stake!

Being a Man

Provider
Is the man's role
Doing anything to provide
Protect
Puting their safety in front of his
Now.......
You can't provide without education
Without education you can't get a good job
Without a good job you can't provide
You can't protect correctly
Bullets
Knives
A man is a Provider
Protector
Father
Son
Brother
Leader of Worship
A living example of Christ

Take Time Off To Relax! !

Behind each and every human,
Who has to work dusk to dawn,
Dawn to dusk or dawn to dawn,
There are few mouths at home,
Hopefully waiting for them,
To keep the food on the table,
to provide cloth and shelter,
to educate and medicate,
to love, care and cherish,
Most labor goes for love,
Love that we have,
Upon our loved ones,
our friends, society,
and our dear nation,
That energizes us,
To work tirelessly.

Happy Labor's day! !

Education must provide the opportunities for self-fulfillment; it can at best provide a rich and challenging environment for the individual to explore, in his own way.

Shelter

Well, Here I Am This Is My Shelter
Here I'm At One With These Trees
And All These Birds Sing To My Rhythms
And These Waves They Comfort Me
Do What You Will While Your Able
Find What It Is That You Seek
Only I'll Fly, Fly, Fly Above The Ocean
I Will Fly So High Above The Sea
If It's Shelter You're Searching For
The One That I Cannot Provide,
Well, I Wish You Well On Your Journey
I Hope Your Dreams They Come Alive
I Hope Your Dreams Back Down And They,
Well They Thrive
Do, Do, Do
Do, Do, Do
Do, Do, Do
Well, I Filled My Cup With Your Answers
I Filled My Cup With Your Lies
You Topped It Up With Your Mysteries
And All Those Secrets I denied
Do What You Will While Your Able
Find What It Is That You Seek
Only I'll Fly, Fly, Fly Above The Ocean
I Will Fly So High Above The Sea
If It's Shelter You're Searching For
The One That I Cannot Provide,
Well, I Wish You Well On Your Journey
I Hope Your Dreams They Come Alive
I Hope Your Dreams Back Down And They,
Well They Thrive
I Hope Your Dreams They Come Alive
I Hope Your Dreams Back Down And Thrive
Do, Do, Do
Do, Do, Do
Do, Do, Do
