Children

It happens to many,
We all hope it will,
When it does,


It's life changing,
Attitudes change,
Priorities change,


When it happens,
Other things lose appeal,
Kittens and puppies now rule,


The first time you see them,
They steal your heart,
In love you fall,


They even look like us,
Smiling so sweet and cute,
Children...

His Love

When we need him most,
In our time of need,
He's holding us,

He's there always,
Even when lost,
He uses us,

Right where we are,
In the depth of sin,
He still loves us,

He never let's go,
He tends his flock,
He never loses track,

His purpose is clear,
His glory is divine,
His love is ours,

Not just a little bit,
But completely,
A Whole Bunch...

Change Your World

I remember the good old days,
When neighbors knew your name,
When they knew are cared about you,


It was just yesterday,
A world when we all cared,
Knew each others names,


It's today now,
The neighbors still there,
Names still unknown,


It only takes a simple hello,
Or a simple smile to,
Change Your World...

Lessons Do

There are lessons in life,
Some easier than others,
Usually we suffer to grow,
We must lose to gain,
Usually through pain,
Those hurt the worst,
Usually best learned,
Lessons Do...

Thinking Of You

I keep forgetting to tell you,
I'm always thinking of you,
You're always on my mind,


I keep wanting to tell you,
How much I care,
How much you mean,


It's on my lips to tell you,
I'm in love with you,
I can't live without you,


That I always will be,
Thinking Of You...

Come To Me

I've always needed you, and I need you now,
I can't remember when it's been so true,
We all need love, I need your's now,
I feel so alone, I don't know what to do,
No day goes by when I don't sit and cry,
My heart screams, bleeds, wanting only you,
I hope you'll hear my plea,
Come To Me...

Character

It's usually clear,
Made obvious right away,
The way to see what's true is humor,
The things we laugh at show what's inside,
They show who and what we are,
They show true,
Character...


For Cliff , and all the other wonderfully funny men that don't curse you to death when they try to
make you laugh!

Remember Me

Lay here at night,
Can't sleep at all,
Thinking of you,


Taking a walk,
Look at the moon,
Sing a love tune,


Sitting here,
Making my plea,
You might just,
Remember Me...

In Your Heart

It's like heaven,
Being by your side,
But more in your eyes,


It's like heaven,
Kissing your lips,
More in your love,


It's like heaven,
For I know,
It's more,
In Your Heart...

Just Blue

Each night I sleep,
A lonely pillow,
Holds my tears,
My dreams all of,
Things once true,
I dream of you,
My hopes were,
All about you,
Now I see,
Just Blue...

An Open Heart

Sleep well my friend,
When you awaken,
'Twill be a new world,


Great it with a smile,
Great it with a prayer,
Thank God for it,


'Twill also bring,
New wonders,
New friends,


Embrace them,
With open arms,
And don't forget,
An Open Heart...

One Love

If anyone could,
We could,


If two can fall,
We can,


If hearts will,
Ours will,


If two will be happy,
We will,


Once together,
One Love...

It's Now

When I need you,
I need your all,


When I miss you,
I miss your all,


When I want your love,
I want it all,


So darling,
If I ever needed you,
It's now...

Long

Since you've gone,
My heart is too,

Since that day,
I've been lost,

The moon,
The stars,

My lips,
Long...

Some Live

There's a place,
Where some are lost,
Where hearts are broken,


Kisses and songs,
All gone now,
Just tears,


Soft words no more,
Hearts in pieces,
Love's all lost,


Goodbye's unsaid,
Farewells not spoken,
That's the place where,
Some Live...

Each Time

Each Time you make my heart melt I know,
Each Time I see you I get weak in the knees,
Each Time I see you my love grows,
Each Time we speak your glow in my heart deepens,
Each Time I think of you I long to be by your side,
Each Time I pray I thank him for sending you,
And my darliing, I will spend the rest of my life,
Showing you Each Time I look into your eyes,
Just how much I am in love with you...

Wind

Listen to the Wind,
Hear his longing,

Wonder what he's saying,
Everything's swaying,


You can hear him,
Feel his gentle breeze,


Wonder if he's lonely,
You can hear his sigh,


Wonder where he goes,
Nobody knows,
Wind...

Agape Love

He promises always love,
With a love that's sweet,
A love that's complete,

That means he might even,
Bring you to your knees,
Even to your defeat,

But his love is always,
Bright and warm,
Fresh and new,

Let him,
Work in you,
Then you'll see,

His love is,
A Perfect love,
Agape Love...

Always There

Words mean,
Different things,
At different times,
For different reasons,


That's the sign,
That should tell you,
To always listen well,
To always think,


You never know,
When those words,
Will mean the most,
You'll need the most,

But when you do,
They will hit home,
In different times,
In different ways,


They will,
Ring in your ears,
They will be,
Loud and clear,


So I pray,
You too will,
Listen, learn,
And read,


His words of love,
They're from above,
Just like him,
Always There...

Freedom

So many lives,
All before their time,


These brave men,
Americas best,


Too many met their fate,
Freedom is why,


For those oppressed,
Those in need,


It's what they stood for,
They gave their lives,


So we could have,
Freedom...


Originally know as Decoration day after the Civil War, Memorial Day is now for all who lost their lives in the US military service, Freedom!

This is the link to the photo below I imposed Freedom on, enjoy,

Just Like That

She'll remind you of someone,
The way she does things,
How she treats you,


Her ways will be kind,
The concern she shows,
The things she does,


Her love will change you,
It will also be very clear,
Her soft kisses,


A mothers love,
Is unconditional,
It's enduring,


So you see,
When you find her,
She will love you,
Just Like That...

He'll Never Let Go

His love is complete,
His words are truth,


He knows our path,
It’s in his plan,


He brings us to our knees,
So he can bring us home,


We can choose to follow,
Or choose to be lost,


Even when we're lost,
He never lets loose,


He’ll show the way,
He’ll Never Let Go...

What's Inside

We all see beautiful things and people,
They make us all take notice,
We might even be motivated,


The beautiful things we see,
Make us wonder in awe,
Of how it can be,


The beautiful people we see,
Can touch our hearts and minds,
Especially when we see,
What's Inside...

Is My Plea

Hearts full of love,
Souls filled with you,
A world full of dreams,
A world filled with needs,


So many prayers,
So many pleas,
The cries are loud,
In all their hours,


Be with them,
Is My Plea...


For all those in Oklahoma and every where else.

The photo of Is My Plea can be seen here:  https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwvECTILvXXcMjOHV_pNfg_xQoL5CiJKkAmSSXMZ2RFCzluHRoJdQIZwohBJNNGSU06elV7Y6AxS_2dR1OLRYOd1NnSjHeiePE82KbcU2QK_RaXANt8FfP9V-gseJElsL-gQx5zHiGQ2w/s760/Is+My+Plea.jpg. Enjoy!

Friends

They don't grow on trees,
You don't find very many,
When you do, hold on,
Keep in touch,
Keep them in your heart,


When you lose one it hurts,
The ones that leave early,
Are still right in your heart,
No matter how or why they leave,
They still live in you,
Remember...


For Scott, Jeff, Tad, Richard, Chris, Matt, Cliff, and Dean, just to name a few.

This is the link to the photo of Friends:  https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1dM7s3qH2qXVW96PmoTCVP-9RXoHw7iYrUYsUHdn6Mgtae-AtWwMbyEoj9K1T9N4oh40lNGEEkZz17fnhsG9EEu-6ayRvFxxmmNVf7rfaMGV5CgMy3DqrKpkqh7DvvFxqx_7Y2eRGmtc/s760/Friends.jpg

No Love

It's like a ship with no wind,
A tree without a breeze,
A rose with no dew,
No movement,
No Love,
It Hurts...

A Lost Love

True love starts,
A chance meeting is how,
It grows and blossoms,
With proper care and love,
What would that chance be,
What would love be,
Without love and care,
A missed chance,
A Lost Love...

His Spirit Saves

There was one once,
He was the only one,
He was here to love,
He gave his life,
His blood redeems,
His spirit saves...


It's just the truth, right?

Just Look

It's the only one in the sky,
It stands out all alone,
A single star shines,
She will also,
Just Look...

A Rose

How does a man treat A Rose,
He handles it with care,
He loves it even more,
He keeps it warm,
He keeps it safe,
He keeps it in his heart,
Right where it belongs...


The photo of A Rose can be seen by scrolling down or here: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS6XHc9TYvAVQbsijNFCrMSqFNPJvtyNWMgzBGPpcGpk8DjazqI-pSJ10ZywLfQnGdwKrUzwGvoDFNsAemTJQv67Ege1h0MM4Bci_PrmyiraxOSKU7XXJJSH5y7fNvJEhKMdTLHyBu-zY/s760/A+Rose+Complete.jpg , Enjoy!

Mans Best Friend

Love is love,
No matter who,
No matter what,


It's in our hearts,
Just like they are,
When they leave,


It just plain hurts,
They love us completely,
They love us with their all,


That's why they call them,
Mans best friend...


I got the idea for this poem when I read a friend of mines loss of her beloved pet Hailey, it made me think, I hope you like it Doris.

Watch, You'll See

His life changed so many,
His love transformed more,


He's in heaven now looking down,
Still changing lives by his example,


He was taken too soon,
But the good ones always are,


He was here to show us all,
How to treat one another,


His father is all about love,
Both of them to be sure,


His son has now learned,
His fathers love is complete,


Why things happen,
We may not understand,


When we get home,
All will be clear,
Watch, You'll See...


For Scott Mitchell, his Son, and his entire famly, all of us.

A Heart For Children

His spirit will soar,
His love already does,
He loves them all,


All as his own,
He always has,
He always will,


Innocence is rare,
They all have it,
That's why he has,
A Heart For Children...


For Ron, he's such a child.... Love you my friend! By the way, if you ever need to find Ron, just go to the nearest grocery store, he'll be in there, following some young mother around with her baby making faces.

The photo of A Heart For Children can be seen here:  https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtcn5ON16zKX14yfVYV2ew3O7cmpIMrU2PoMVGCtvzzgI2ZZxv0hn4XOefMJVDs4oSGSsKSnUfZed2mu3FcQmcDYBGQw7CmXuYv1055aSRX7cS7i6gtvIYN6G60mkPbSRRG8obGAOWl6Q/s760/A+Heart+For+Children.jpg. Enjoy!

Either Way

Which is more beautiful,
A rose with a blanket of dew,
Or a rose bud just opening,
Either Way,
A rose,


Which is more gorgeous,
The stars in the sky,
Or the stars in your eyes,
Either Way,
Stars,


Which is more lovely,
The love of him,
Or the love you hold
Either Way,
Love...

She Glows

With stars in her eyes,
Heaven in her heart,
Love on her mind,
She glows,


She is beauty defined,
Her radiance unbound,
Another like her not found,
She glows,


She'll steal your heart,
With just one look,
That's all it took,
I know,
She Glows...

All I Ask

Can we please,
Turn back time,
A last chance,
Is my hope,


One yesterday,
Is All I Ask,
All I want,
Is one chance,


Forgive me,
Love me again,
Just one chance,
I pray you will,


Remember us,
How we were,
I was true,
I love you,


Just one chance,
Is All I Ask...

Just So You Know

At the chosen time,
They must decide,
To live an eternity,
Or a lifetime,


The choice only comes once,
They must choose between,
Loving in his embrace,
Or the love of a man,


Their choice is of love,
Seems to me they all know,
No matter which it will be,
In heaven they will live,


If they choose him,
They look down with love,
If they choose a man,
They look up with praise,


If you get to see one,
You'll know right away,
Her ways will be clear,
Your heart will show,
Just So You Know...

The Dreamer

How many days,
How many nights,
Must a man dream,


How many ways,
How many times,
Must he dream alone,


How much time,
How much love,
Is lost in dreams,


When will it stop,
When will it cease,
Only The Dreamer knows...

A Fallen Star

There for all to see,
They fall all the time,

At night in the heavens,

I know where they go,
One fell into my arms,

With all her charms,

A Fallen Star,
Is what you are,

With all my dreams,

The twinkle I see,
The one for me,
A Fallen Star...

Let Go

Past mistakes haunt us all,
They can hold us captive,
They can even hold us back,


Forgive yourself,
Forgive them too,
Let Go of the past,


Take the step,
Look forward,
Look up too,


Live and love,
Love and live,
It's important,
Let go...

Pray

When times are worst,
When we need him most,
He send's his Angels,
He sends his love,
All from above,


He carries us,
Holds us close,
He always cares,
He's always there,
Just look to him,


In both bad times,
And good times too,
Just look to him,
He'll show love,
Pray...

Let It BE

When they leave,
The memories go on,
They'll never go away,
They lived in your heart,


It will go on, never stop,
Even when they're gone,
It knows how to love,
Not how to stop,


Forgiveness,
It's the answer,
That's all it takes,
Remember what was,
And Let It Be...


I was listening to the title song by The Beatles, had to write this one!

Don't Let Go

How do you find a diamond,
In a pile of shattered glass,


You search long and hard,
You pay attention to detail,
You look for a glow,
You look for rays,


When you find her,
Her ways will blind you,
She will have your heart,
You'll know from the start,


Hard to find she will be,
The look might even be long,
So when you find her,
Treat her right,
Don't let go...


By the way, rays come from the inside of both diamonds and glass so...

Thank God For Mother's

I pray for simple things,
All of them for you,
I pray your day will be,
Wonderful moments filled,
With family and friends,


I pray God may bless,
You in all you do,
On this your special day,


I pray he will keep you,
Close and hold you near,
As you hold so many dear,


I pray he'll keep you strong,
Keep your heart loving and kind,
As you face so much each day,


He gave you a special gift,
Your love is what it is,
Thank God for Mother's...


I had thought of writing this one for sometime, I was chatting with a very dear friend of mine and I said some of this poem to her, so it kind of wrote itself. Also, what would we be without mothers? Extinct...
The photo of Thank God For Mothers can be seen here:  https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY7iXiQ3QxjYcpWhJcYwOkgoJx86fKylzUMpO6NY20gO7eqg1AtI8xyOX05yH7GOyZhcOecpOpEnEvFc4uValk1HKp2Nge0516dvlsCtm1JHMFVmip-fagyDwSGq-WDRv-23WNUTTsA90/s760/Thank+God+For+Mothers.jpg.  Enjoy!

Simple Love

When you break it down,
It's not complicated,
It's really easy,


It's accepting them,
As an imperfect person,
In a perfect way,


All the good,
The bad,
All...

A Heart For God

How many saved,
How many loved,
He can't tell you,


How much,
Or how long,
He will tell you,


When in front of him,
He will say,
I've used all,


I have nothing left,
There he'll be,
With nothing but,
A Heart for God...


1 May 2013
For Ron, the poem says it all. The photo of A Heart For God can be seen below or here: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJtE4DpoyHhAam_0StJtNS0dlJRzuHZPh_yzPGI2aL1qbKQlFTZsi8kbjn8qYu0jjfN-u2hW9c-2H8QcCjB50XBHl6W57kac_N4h34-FPEMVDS2FSntD5Fb-MQ0S7boYBabmyzO4vKOuU/s760/Ron.jpg, also,
I kind of rewrote this one for both Ron and Arlis, it's called "Hearts for God" and can be found here, https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyTOIQnSLQ8Qtsf62331PyjXVKkPc-TjqsQJJakqwa7DiKvEmQS3BFWeBMcjOtyTjOnZcpB1vK0JRfYf2_eIMOLyoiWiK6JZsGQxDVt2GhBcmcgWN8nkLUvP0jAz9iLIVK9cyL9AbVIRw/s760/Hearts+For+God.jpg.  Enjoy!

Also, the mistake I made in spelling on the photo of A Heart For God was purely over looked by me, but it will remain as stands, I'm sure Ron understands.
