My Inspiration 4/23/2008
You give me inspiration Yet not a word you say. You are the light in my life That guides me on my way.
Our closeness is forever As I feel you in my heart. No matter where I am We are never far apart.
You are with me in the morning. You are with me every night. No matter where I am You are my shining light.
No matter where I go, You are in my heart each day. I feel your ...

Love Me Now 4/7/2008
If you are ever going to love me, Love me now, while I can know The sweet and tender feelings That from true affection flow.
Love me now While I am living. Do not wait until I'm gone And then have it chiseled in marble, Sweet words on ice-cold stone.
If you have tender thoughts of me, Please tell me now. If you wait until I am sleeping, Never to awaken,
There will be ...

My dogs live here, they're here to stay. you don't like pets, be on your way. they share my home, my food, my space this is their home, this is their place.
You will find hair on the floor, they will alert you're at the door. they may request a little pat, a simple 'no' will settle that.

Victory 3/24/2008
VICTORY I refused to be discouraged To be sad, or to cry; I refuse to be downhearted, and here's the reason why...

He is all wise and powerful, Jesus is His name; Though everything is changeable, My God remains the same. My God knows all that's happening; Beginning to the end, His presence is ...

In the heart of a woman mystery, abound Solomon in his wisdom answers could not be found. In the heart of a woman no man can reach it remains illusive no matter how hard he preaches.
In the heart of a woman feelings run deep Complex without logics where bitter is sometime sweet.

High on a shelf, I am kept; Forgotten there, I am left.
With respect, I do get lots of kiss, My main point is what they always miss!!! Neglecting the message inside ...

Friends 3/3/2008
Friends are born, not made. In the rhythm of life we sometime find ourselves out of tune. But as long as there are friends to provide the melody, the music plays on.
"Count your life by smiles not tears, count your age by friends not years" In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies but the silence of our friends.
Friendship improves happiness and abates ...

Dirty Old Shoes 2/29/2008
Shoes I showered and shaved I adjusted my tie. I got there and sat. In a pew just in time.
Bowing my head in prayer As I closed my eyes. I saw the shoe of the man next to me. Touching my own. I sighed.
With plenty of room on either side I thought, "Why must our soles touch?" It bothered me, his shoe touching mine. But it didn't bother him much.
A prayer began: "Our ...

If God Should Go On Strike 2/14/2008
How good it is that God above has never gone on strike because
He was not treated fair in things He didn't like. If
only once he'd given up and said, "That’s it,
I'm through, I've had enough of thee on earth,
so this is what I'll do.
I’ll give my orders to the sun, cut off the heat supply, and
to the moon give no more light and run the oceans dry. Then

Grandma's Apron: 2/12/2008
When I used to visit Grandma. I was very much impressed, by her all-purpose apron, and the power it possessed.
For Grandma, it was every day to choose one when she dressed. The strings were tied and freshly washed, and maybe even pressed.
The simple apron that it was, you would never think about; the things she used it for, that made it look worn out.
She used it for a ...

Could have been diiferent 2/11/2008
The tears fall from my eyes. Of course I'm not a bit surprised. Time stands still at the speed of light. Once again I've not got it right. Oh I know what to say. And when to smile. All the games to play. How to go the extra mile. I've deceived them all. I've deceived myself. For there's an invisible wall. And it holds an empty shelf. Hammer pulled back, trigger pulled down. Brains gone with an ...

No Beginning Or End 2/7/2008
Many people will walk in and out of your life, But only true friends leave footprints in your heart. To handle yourself, use your head; To handle others, use your heart. Anger is only one letter short of Danger. God gives every bird its food, But he doesn't throw it into its nest. He who loses money, loses much; He who loses friends, loses more; He who loses faith, loses all. Beautiful young ...

The Oak Tree 2/7/2008
A mighty wind Blew night and day It stole the oak tree's leaves away
Then snapped its boughs And pulled its bark Until the oak was tired and stark
But still the oak tree held its ground While other trees fell all around The weary wind gave up and spoke How can you still be standing Oak
The oak tree said, I know that you Can break each branch of mine in two Carry every ...

Dear God,
When I am lonely and, Perhaps I feel despair. Let not my ailing heart forget, That YOU hear every prayer.
Remind me that no matter what, I do or fail to do, There still is hope for as long As I have FAITH in YOU.
Let not my eyes be blinded by Some folly I commit. But help me to regret my wrong, And to make up for it.
Inspire me to put my fears, Upon a ...

Recipe for a Happy New Year: 12/27/2007
To leave the old with a burst of song, To recall the right and forgive the wrong; To forget the thing that binds you fast To the vain regrets of the year that's past; To have the strength to let go your hold Of the not worthwhile of the days grown old, To dare to go forth with a purpose true, To the unknown task of the year that's new; To help your brother along the road To do his work and lift ...

After Christmas 12/26/2007
'Twas the week after Christmas, and all through the
house Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse. The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste
At the holiday parties had gone to my waist.
When I got on the scales there arose such a number! When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber). I'd remember the marvelous meals I'd prepared;
The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared, ...

Christmas in The Dust: 12/25/2007
I had no Christmas spirit when I breathed a weary sigh, And looked across the table where the bills were piled too high.
The laundry wasn't finished and the car I had to fix, My stocks were down another point, the Dolphins lost by six.
And so with only minutes till my got home from school I gave up on the drudgery and grabbed a wooden stool.
The burdens that I carried ...

If that he say he cannot sing, Some other sport then let him bring, That it may please at this feasting.
If he say he naught can do, Then, for my love, tell him no But to the stocks then let him ...

The embers glowed softly, and in their dim light,
I gazed round the room and I cherished the sight.
My wife was asleep, her head on my chest,
My beside me, angelic in rest.
Outside the snow fell, a blanket of white,
Transforming the yard to a winter delight.
The sparkling lights in the tree I believe,
Completed the magic that was ...

The Computer Swallowed Grandma 12/16/2007
The computer swallowed grandma. Yes, honestly its true! She pressed 'control' and 'enter' And disappeared from view. It devoured her completely, The thought just makes me squirm. She must have caught a virus Or been eaten by a worm. I've searched through the recycle bin And files of every kind; I've even used the Internet, But nothing did I find. In desperation, I asked Jeeves My searches to ...
