Richard King

Writing by Richard King

Introduction

Richard King has quite an interesting history. Richard King was Elvis Presley’s cousin. He sang with Elvis in his garage many times when Richard was only 5 years old. Richard also spent a couple of summers with Elvis.

Richard was a professional singer too. Singer Wayne Newton was a friend of his and Richard knew other entertainers as well.

Richard’s father was a lieutenant in the United States Navy and dated actress Marilyn Monroe. Richard and actor Lee Marvin went into a gold mining partnership.

He worked for a transportation company and obtained the contract to move the London Bridge to Lake Havasu, California.

Richard has been in three plane crashes—one fixed wing and two helicopters.

Richard sings for the Lord now and is a precious friend and brother. You will enjoy his poems and proverbs.

The person you can see in the background with the beard is Pastor Smokey Denna of the Assembly God Church in Westwood, California located in Northern California. Smokey is a blood relative of Sargent York, the famous war hero who was portrayed in a movie. Actor Gary Cooper played the part.

The Joy's of my Salvation's

FIRST I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THE TITLE IS A PLAY ON WORDS, BUT NOT TRUE. MANY JOY’S THIS HEART HAS FELT, WITNESSED AND HAVE BEEN A SPECTATOR TO HIS MIRACLES IN LIVES, SOME I KNEW NOT, SOME WERE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN THE LORD JESUS. MOST MIRACLES HAVE BEEN FOR MY BENEFIT AND I CARRY THEM WITH ME EACH AND EVERY DAY, EVERY DAY IS A BRAND NEW SALVATION, MY HEART AND SOUL STANDS TALL WITH LOVE FOR THE SPONSOR OF THESE MIRACLES. I CALL IT MY BADGE OF THANKSGIVING AND I PRAY THIS BANNER FOR ALL MANKIND. THE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW HIM!

IT WASN’T UNTIL LATER IN LIFE THAT I’VE COME TO KNOW WHAT, WHY, WHEN AND WHOM! IT’S ONLY FROM MY SOUL WANTING, SEARCHING AND REFLECTUTO ON THE VALUES OF THIS LIFE COMPARED TO THE NEXT. IT’S FROM MY SALVATIONS THAT I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GLEAM A MOMENT, A SMALL PART OF HIS TRUTH, WONDERMENT AND MERCY FOR ALL OF MANKIND!

STILL TODAY THE QUESTION, “WHY ME LORD” RIGHT OR WRONG, I’M CERTAIN I CAN’T BE THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS HAUNTING GHOST LIKE QUESTION FOR GOD? ALL I KNOW IS, MY HEART IS FULL AND WHEN I SING OR PRAY TO HIM, I FEEL HIS GOOD PLEASURE, I KNOW IN MY HEART, MY SOUL, HE IS LISTENING TO HIS SERVANT.

YOU WILL FIND POEMS, SONNETS, QUOTES, DITTIES AND ANTIDOTES TO HELP THOSE WITH WRINKLED OR LOST HEARTS, THESE ARE NOT CURES FROM THE CLERGY’S POINT OF VIEW BUT FROM A BORN AGAIN, HAPPY THEN, UNBELIEVING PAGAN, SAVED FROM NOWHERE TO A TRUTH FILLED HAPPY SOMEPLACE IN THIS LIFE! I’M PRAYING IT WILL BRING AN EAR TO THOSE LOST HEARTS AND SOULS.

“I AM BECOMING SOMEONE THAT MAKES ME HAPPY”

SHE FLEW THROUGH A RAINBOW

SHE FLEW THROUGH A RAINBOW,
INTO A HOUSE BOUGHT AND SOLD,
THROUGH HIS HEART, OUR CHILDRENS POT OF GOLD.
MY HEART IS GLADDENED FATHER,

SHE’S A FRIENSHIP ANGEL,
WITH LITTLE ROOM TO DISCUSS,
CARRYING A LOVING FRIENDSHIP,
BETWEEN HIM, YOU AND US.

HEAVENLY FATHER

HEAVENLY FATHER,
PLEASE TAKE THIS HEART OF NENE,
FILL ITS CHAMBERS WITH YOUR LOVE,
HAVE IT BEAT WITH YOUR PULSE,
SO YOU CAN CHECK IT FROM ABOVE,

TO WALK FROM LIFE TO ETERNAL LIFE

TO WALK FROM LIFE TO ETERNAL LIFE,
HIS PROMISE TO BE, A STROLL FOR HIM,
A JOURNEY FOR ME.

FOR HE HAS STROLLED THIS PATH,
OVER TWO THOUSAND YEARS,
PICKING UP THE PIECES OF LIFE,
STAINED BY OUR TEARS.

WHAT CLOSES OUR HEARTS AND FILLS THEM WITH SORROWS,
IT'S KNOWING HIS TRUTHS ABOUT OURSELVES,
AND THE LACK OF HIS TOMORROWS.

BUT WITHIN OUR TROUBLED HEARTS,
IS THAT PROMISE TO CALL,
A STROLL FOR HIM,
ETERNAL LIFE, FOR US ALL.

OFF THE LAKE THE MORNING SUN IS GLISTENING

OFF THE LAKE THE MORNING SUN IS GLISTENING.

AS I STAND HERE LISTENING,
FOR THE SLIGHTEST SOUNDS OF GOD.

A LONE FISHERMANS TROLL, LEAVING HIS GENTLE WAKE.
A BEE HOVERS ABOUT MY PEN,
ATTRACTED TO ITS COLOR,

ATTRACTED TO ITS SHAPE.

ABOVE THE CHATTER OF A CHIPMUNK,

THE TRILL OF A LOON

I KNOW GOD IS HERE ON THIS LAND,
I RECOGNIZE HIS TUNES.

FROM THE EAST, THE SUN TOPS HIS TOWERING PINES,
ALWAYS REMINDING ME.

I AM HIS AND HE STANDS
FOREVER, FOREVER MINE,
