Family feeds the soul

Family” feeds
the soul of our being
It's the fuel
that ignites our hearts
It's the core
of our spiritual essence
Reflecting all that is,
~ who we are
We relate
to our own
personal reasons
Only we can explain why
Distinctive
in our own identities
A profound acceptance
Of you and I

Loves' language

Love speaks a language
That only two people understand
Where loves’ refuge is a trusting shelter
And honesty walks hand in hand
Love is a place of safety
Confiding in you and me
Love is where you can be yourself
Be open, honest and free
Love is knowing that you are
Exactly ~ where you are meant be
It’s where you put his feelings first
For she is the only one you see
Love means you will never hurt her
~ and will always lift his soul
Its’ continued appreciation
Love is kind ~ love is whole
Love is nurturing his heart
Taking care of her needs first
Love enhances each others lives
Caring so deeply you could burst
Love folds two hearts together
As you hold each other’s hand
It’s where the value of each others feelings
Means more than we understand
Love is a gift ~ it’s so very precious
Never takes for granted or betrays
Love is giving your all
Love is everything ~ God’s embrace

The Essence of your life

The Essence of your life,
Is measured by the heart of your soul
The kindness in your heart
Defines who you are ~ your mold
Tomorrow’s promise
Ignites our hopes and dreams
~ A sense of purpose
Influences all that life truly means

Weeping Willow

As the weeping willow drapes against the purple sky
Tiny drops of heaven twinkle in my eye
Her leaves droop to skim the waters’ edge
Creating ripples that float and dance against the ledge
Cascading like a fountain, it shadows the horizon’s frame
A silhouette of beauty, against the glow of the sun’s flame
Swaying in the breeze, such graceful motion
Such beauty on earth, God’s gifts touch my emotion
Nature’s wonders ~ treasures of so much worth
True gifts of God’s creations; right here on earth.
As the butterfly’s flutter, as wide as her wings will spread
Against the blue horizon reflected in the sun’s yellows and reds
An amazing array of splendor, true gifts from God to me
Each creation so taken for granted in all of it’s majesty
So flawless in purity, nature’s richness in full bloom
I give thanks to the heavens, as I smile to the silver moon

Rose bud dance

The rose bud dances to the color of her dignity
Each alluring petal, blossoms delicate purity
Gracefully she pirouettes in a swirl of calming motion
Exposing vulnerability, inside her sensitive emotion
Quietly, silently ~ she sings her lullaby
Encouraged by the wings of an elusive butterfly
A silhouette of splendor graces the setting of the sun
God’s gifts of nature ~ pure wonder; every one
The blossom of the rose ~ the butterfly seduce
God’s gifts of beauty ~ intense, so profuse

I loved you ~ Before you came

I have loved you since before you came
Before I gave you the gift of life
So many treasured memories
That I cherish every minute of life
Where have all the years gone to?
Since a baby in my arms you lay
You make my life so worthwhile
So many memories will always stay
You will always be my “babies"
You both live inside my heart
Thank you for blessing me ~
I love you - with all my heart

The first without her

Today ~ the first birthday without her
Will cloud and sadden you so
The memories will drench you deeper
And your heart ~ an empty hollow
Try to soak your mind in the good memories
Celebrate her day ~ with a rose in her honor
For she is smiling down on you from heaven
Painting the sky in her beautiful colors
