The Class Reunion 9/26/2006
Every ten years, as summertime nears,
An announcement arrives in the mail,
A reunion is planned; it'll be really grand;
Make plans to attend without fail.
I'll never forget the first time we met;
We tried so hard to impress.
We drove fancy cars, smoked big cigars,
And wore our most elegant dress.
It was quite an affair; the whole class was there.
It was ...

The Simple Joys 9/26/2006
They miss so much who do not know
The simple joys of long ago
When life was lived with easy pace
And thankful hearts said table grace
When folks took time to be a friend
A helping hand, so quick to lend.
When houses had a front porch swing
Oh how we loved that creaky thing
On summer evenings friends would call
And they were welcome, one and all
And Mom would ...

My Own Awakening 9/24/2006
Open is my heart...Undone are my fears..Able to move forward
with raw passion toward the unknown.
My soul once burdened by despair...I have grown...unknowingly.
Welcoming tears that fall unannounced. Cleansing with
each drop.
Now free is my love to share... Gaining comfort while mirroring
like intricacies owned by another. In turn allowing admiration
off differences.
A desire to give ...

Ten Thousand Angels

Ten Thousand Angels
They bound the hands of Jesus in the garden where he pray,
They led him through the street in shame,
They spat upon the Saviour so pure and free from sin,
They said crucify him He's to blame.
He could have called ten thousand angels,
To destroy the world and set Him free,
He could have called ten thousand angels,

Starting Over 9/24/2006
Where will I go from here?
It seems I've come this way so many times before!
Of all the paths to take
It seems, somehow I choose the same one o'er and o'er!
Am I so blind that I can't see?
It seems that each and every landmark is brand new!
This time, I think it best,
If I just wait for you to tell me what to do!
I'm tired of going 'round in circles.

Train Of Life 9/24/2006
Some folks ride the train of life
Looking out the rear,
Watching miles of life roll by,
And marking every year.
They sit in sad remembrance,
Of wasted days gone by,
And curse their life for what it was,
And hang their head and cry.
But I don't concern myself with that,
I took a different vent,
I look forward to what life holds,

On My Knees 9/23/2006
Last night I took a journey
To a land across the seas.
I didn't go by ship or plane
I traveled on my knees.
I saw so many people there
In bondage to their sin,
And Jesus told me I should go,
That there were souls to win.
But I said "Jesus, I can't go
To lands across the seas."
He answered quickly, "Yes, you can
By traveling on your knees."
He said, "You pray, I'll ...

Who Am I Today? 9/23/2006
"Who am I today"? I ask.
And I wonder if I'll ever know;
I know the past has shaped me now,
Though the past was long ago.
The little moments form a blur,
The times both happy and sad,
All the people I once knew,
And the things I used to have.
They all helped me to become
Where, what, and who I am now,
And everything has influenced me

I'm really not an addict,
There is no need to shout;
But talking with my puter friends,

And make a bed or two;
But instead of staring at the television
I spend some time with you.
I go with friends or family,
To dinner or a show;

A moment in time, I shall not forget
A flicker, a pulse, my heart will not let.
A kiss on his cheek, for love, not goodbye-
A hug, for my sake, no questions to why.
No longer a baby, nothing shy of a man.
Whiskers for peach fuzz, and big warm hands.
My heart calls to mind, what seems instantly
Many moments gone by, just him and me.
It was he that ...

Are his eyes black or blue?

Love is never easy 9/11/2006
Love is not easy at any cost
Words alone can be so misunderstood
Love requires the hands the face and mouth to converse
The hurt rests easy when the joys feel so good
Lovers can't reach through the computer screen
To underscore a message is to use your arms
To say with touch exactly what it is that they mean
Or give light to caress that anger that needs to be calmed
Instead we must ...

He can view the pattern upon the upper side
While I can only view it on this the under side.
'Tis He who fills the shuttle
He knows just what is best
So, I will weave in earnest
And leave with him the rest.
Sometimes He weaveth sorrow
Which seemeth strange to me

There’s mathematics in every vibration
no mystery, just rhythm and rhyme.
