Would you like to make this site your homepage? It's fast and easy...
Yes, Please make this my home page!
A kind smile, thoughts
and a sympathetic ear...
a few little words is all we
can hear.
Reaching out but no one is there...
as we soon discover, ones we
love do not care.
Our hearts were shortly filled
with serenity and joy...
just to have it removed again
is our usual ploy.
Kind hearts, mind and words are
all we expect...
but soon and not forgotten we
have to reflect.
Some happiness and joy were brought
into our lives...
to be taken away unfairly now
seem broken ties.
It's only a fantasy to want to
be loved...
but in this condition, it's gained
from above.
Just one more round of a considerate
kind word...
would help us go on, please hear
this dear lord.
our lives are so empty, endless
and dim...
emotions were taken.......once
again on a limb.
People enter our lives in the
strangest fashion...
but they don't realize they hurt
our compassion.
Pleading for help is so demeaning...
we need our friends back with
a little more feeling.
Feelings of hurt is a sad situation...
as needing someone remains infatuation.
We only can dream of happier
days...
but the wait seems endless, don't
take this away.
We need someone special to handle
our grief...
we know they are there......please
rescue this lost leaf.

FUTURE
HOPE
Now it's our turn to live
The time finally has come
Oh........we should realize
Since time is drifting by swiftly
And we know it can't stand still
As we once again will discover.
There's a voice softly calling
To us clearly from above
And time can only tell how it
will be
And who will know the truth
Life should continue on its course
Only we shall find the way.
Don't look back
Keep on moving
No one cares about what you are
doing
So ride on through the traffic
of life
Yes....through the highway of
life....

"Trying for
Strength"
My heart was strong with joy
and laughter
The mind was filled with peace....
The heart is no longer strong
I fear
My hopes had to cease.
When will the ache in my soul
subside
and love returns once more...
For it's those who stay at bay
Are the ones who close the door.
Feelings of sadness drift through
our mind
We need a companion to fill the
void inside...
Almighty with your strength and
forgiveness
Are we not allowed some pleasures
and kindness.
We brave each day with another
battle to fight
We need our lives back before seeing the light
Give us some endurance and strength
to go on....
For we've challenged quite a
journey......
We can't be alone.
We only have some friendships
Which is a gift we cherish...
We are strong and humble most
of the time
But dear Lord......please allow
us more time.

"Flowing Tears"
Tears are flowing again...
Help me alleviate this pain.
Tears are dropping again...
Please make them subside.
Tears are increasing now...
Please listen and understand.
Tears cannot be controlled...
Your compassion is not there.
Tears will continue...
For now the pain is in my heart.

~~Firelight~~
Confronted with storm clouds
lightning, thunder and rain
Beat on my window
it continues to stain....
Drops are forming
they fall like small tears
they're only droplets of water
and nothing to fear....
I'm warm by the fire
with pen in my hand
let the words keep flowing
so they will all understand....
My shepherd named Callie
lays peacefully along side
what dream is she dreaming
what goes through her mind....
Alone by the fireside
not as pleasant for long
please give me endurance
and try to remain strong....
The fire now crackles
but there is nothing to fear
only remembering special moments
brings on a small tear....
Is this now my fate
to write words from my mind
let it be then....dear Lord
I thank you.......You're truly
too kind.

~~~THE LIGHT~~~
Why are these trees becoming
so dim...
am I dreaming of something, not
familiar, not grim?
Ahead a multicoloured field where
wildflowers grow...
amongst a mountain stream which
majestically does flow.
All wondrous forms of wildlife,
true nature combined...
where am I...please tell me...I
mustn't be blind.
Familiar faces are approaching
and angels glowing so bright...
oh could it be...yes, I do believe...I've
gone through the light.
My life has now ended and do
not know why...
peace and tranquillity surround
me...this time I won't cry.
