'Looking Back'


       'Looking Back'

I have time to sit and ponder

To let my mind just wander
Up the hills
And down the vales of life

I acknowledge every new event
Knowing all were heaven sent
Lessons needed
Bringing Joy or strife

Babies were my focus bright
I prayed for each one every night
And God blessed all with gifts untold
As days flew by, the memories hold

 No one knows how much we give
Just thankful for the life we live
My last wish before I rest
Is that God knows
I did my best.

'My Future'


'My Future'

A sad, sad train
Chugging through
The rain
Carrying all the pain
No more restrain
Shrinking my brain
Erasing the stain
Caused  by hurt and the chain
That's  hard to explain
Walk down memory lane
And try to stay sane.

ALONE


Alone

There was no time to say "Goodbye"
But he kept saying he loved me
So I think he knew.
My precious one.
God gave me 47 years with him
But I wanted more.
For he was my life
One moment here, the next gone
Yes, it happens that fast.
Treasure the seconds
For no one knows when God
Will call them home.
I will treasure the memories
Until I meet him  again on the other side.
(He said he will come to meet me
so I won't be afraid)
