The softness of the mist
Illuminates the dew
Rainbows of color dance upon the rose
Butterflies and hummingbirds sing in tunes
As delicate as any cloud
Life renews itself with every morning’s gift
Fresh ideas and thoughts mingle with the breeze
Hopes not deterred give their promise of now
I sip my coffee within my world
Grateful for the beauty of life
And contentment with it’s joys.
Walking this Earth in all of it’s beauty
Seeing the miracles unfold everyday makes me grateful
The mama doe and her fawn with Daddy close by
Lionesses protecting her cubs from all enemies
Eagles in flight as they soar to great heights
Waterfalls and forest glens peacefully adding their voices
Daffodils, dandelions, and tulips heralding spring to feed the bees
Robins and doves gathering grass and twigs for their nest
Baby birds eventually flying free to repeat the cycle
Roses on fences display their magnificent beauty and scents
Oh! How wonderful it all is!
To be alive, to be loved, to be a Mom
To awesome kids and Grand-babies
To know the peace of a loving and merciful, Holy Father
To be able to enjoy the bounty He has bestowed on all of us
Yet the ugliest thing arises each day and that is hate
It takes all the joy away and puts contention at the forefront
I want to live in my world of blessings without harsh word and vulgarity
The way it used to be when we were young and innocent
I know not all was peaches and cream but we had hope
Time seems to be eroding everything away
The beauty of the morning is disappearing into the darkness of night
Only we can change it but first we must want too
Therein is the vast crevice of disconnected souls
Who chose to harden their hearts with unyielding thoughts
The light of wisdom and grace can dispel this
If kindness walks our path with us
Oh to see the beauty of peace in the world gone crazy
Turned upside down with hell winning in the polls of people’s
Disrespect for life and liberty
The pursuing of personal gain overshadowing the needs of others
What a world to pas down to our young ones
God help us to see it’s beauty and to respect it’s being
The Earth will be grateful and we can stop to smell the roses again.

When the time comes for me to go home
I won’t be here but you won’t be alone
I will walk with you in your forever dreams
I know you will miss me and be lonely it seems
Go on with your life and enjoy it
Don’t drag yourself down with sad regret
I was happy, and loved, and enjoyed life
I was mama, sister, daughter, aunt, friend, and wife
I filled my days here on this wonderful earth
With all my loved ones and friends of great worth
I never got to all the exciting things I wanted too
But in the end I did as much as I could possibly do
I kissed the face of each dear child of mime
Hugged grand-babies much of the time
The great grand-babies then came along
Of course none could do anything wrong
So dance today for you may never know
When it’s last dance and your time to go
Hang on to the cool memories
And smile, laugh, talk, and eat
As you remember me. I love you.
A misty mountain rain
Will make the meadows grow
The warmth of the sun
Will melt away the snow
Flowers in magnificent bloom
Smile in the morning glow
When all are nurtured
By God’s Heaven
Life puts on her show!
Above the world
I can see every tree
Across the lane
He is waiting for me
I am coming my love
I’ll soon be there
To touch your face
And that crown of white hair
You’ll hold me close
Then whispering low
Tell me you love me and
How you’ve missed me so
I can’t wait to see you
Feel the beat of your heart
Eternally grateful
We are no longer apart.
Fifty years have come and gone
Since you said your ‘I Do’s’
Confessing your love-becoming as one
Happy and blessed with love so true.
Joy came that precious day long ago
When God joined you as bride and groom
You have always been able to show
How smiles can light up a room.
Blessed by the Father to be Mom and Dad
Sheltering and caring with each new day
Giving all the love that you had
To guide, to teach, in your own special way.
Times were sometimes hard and tough
Others were sweet and good
Through everything your love was enough
You always did the best that you could.
Today as these sweet memories come back to you
With recollections of how your love stood the test
Have a ‘Happy Anniversary,’ and remember this too
God, along with all of us, do wish you only the best.
Words of love are spoken
When acts of love do meet
Hearts are fulfilled-not broken
When words and acts do meet
Cheerful cries float on the air
Made by children dark and fair
Hope abound and tarry there
Keep them from all worldly care
Time does have a plan for everything
All laid out very carefully
But alas not a soul can see
What the results are meant to be
So, hope abound and tarry here
Make us part of the plan
To take us up to that holy sphere
Where God will walk with His created man.
Wedding bells chime in your hearts today
You have said ‘I Do’ in the most precious way
Two hearts become one in sweet accord
Blessed of God and so much adored.
The trials of life are sure to come
But you will stand together to face each one
With laughter and joy, and thoughts so true
Hand in hand, you will see them through.
As days become years and time passes by
Let goodness and mercy stay by your side
Keeping you always in the Lord’s embrace
Kissed by the dew of His eternal grace.
We honor you now with hearts full of love
Praying down blessings from our Father above
With sincere wishes we would all like to say
May everyday be as wonderful as your wedding day.
She has touched my life with
God’s tender loving grace
Helped me through the pain that
Sometimes I can’t face
She has shown me the silent courage that
It always seems to take
To be a better person each morning
When I wake
She has been my beacon shining with
God’s great, loving Light
Giving me the strength to win
Each battle that I fight
With age-worn hands she has brushed
Away the tears
Circled me with loving arms
To chase away the fears
She has put me in her pocket
To keep me safe and sound
I only hope I’ll walk beside her
When she reaches, God’s holy ground.
Dedicated to Sister Eva Thorpe-1986-My prayer warrior!
Sunlight sparkles on morning dew
Robins sing sweet chords so true
Gentle breezes seem to say
Arise, Dear Child, it’s your wedding day.
Clouds are whispering-dancing free
This wonderous day is just for thee
Old hurts are gone, all is new
So, Arise Dear Child, this song’s for you.
Roses and orchids, their sweet smell send
Lilacs waving like a welcomed friend
Joined this day by a golden braid
Arise, Dear Child, be not afraid.
Glory sings in angelic praise
Your hearts as one to the Father you’ll raise
With holy hands from Heaven above
He will bless this union with eternal love.
So, Arise, Dear Child, take your place
With love and mercy, goodness and grace
Side by side you will step before His throne
Never again to walk alone.
