'Locked out'

'Locked out'


God's outside the window

So look out and you can see

Him in every flower

Him in every tree

And pray inside your head

For then

No one else shall know

Pray that Guns

Are not in school

And Let His blessings flow..

Written after the school shootings

Which gave us one more thing to

worry about. Such sadness,


'Happy New Year'


'Happy New Year'


A New Year means

Another chance

To make things

Even better...

A special Kiss

A little hug

Or send that

past due letter

Keep in mind

Your blessings all

For each one

That was sent

Was just because

You gave A gift

Some time

or Love

Was spent...

Our world is

getting smaller

as we join hands

On the Net

But still it is

More wonderful

To give instead

Of get.

So know that I

With heart of love

Do wish you

All that's GREAT!

Happy New Year

Friends...

The best to you

in '98.

'Oprah Winfrey'


'Oprah Winfrey'


She is one of us

Who has lived with pain

When circumstances

Brought darkest rain

She has made us laugh

She has made us cry

She has opened our hearts

With that certain sigh

She has brought

A whole nation

To a better place

With a heart full of love

With her style

With her grace...

Most stand around

A few people try

But Oprah's the sparkle

Still there in God's eye....

'A Small Request'


'A Small Request'


They turned out my light

And now with corners

Dimly lit

Do they even "give a shit"?

I have no way of knowing

Nor do I care to find

Another judgement waiting

To hurt or tear and grind...

For I have kept Life's motion

To the best I have to give

And now I only ask

That I might live....

‘Life’

‘Life’


It oft time seems

the mighty waves

Just wash right over me

And leave me weak

and trembling....

A young sweet

waif at sea...

And I’ve not harmed

a single soul

I’ve smiled and

lent a hand

I’ve walked

a thousand miles

with some

And tried

to understand....

I look into

the mirror and see

A lovely maiden fair

Then another wave comes in

And I’m an old grey mare..

'The Bible'


'The Bible'


Carry your bible

Inside of your heart

So it will be there

Right from the start

The pages are thin

But the message

Is strong

No matter the problem

It won't take you long

To make the right choice

To lead , never follow

The lies that Satan

may tempt you

To swallow.

For God is your strength

You have nothing to fear

Your life will be blessed

Hold His hand

He is here.

'The Message'


'The Message'


A shining light

In this foul darkness

I shall be

For I love Him

Who bore the cross

For me

Some...I know

Must crucify Him still

For God hath given them

their own free will

But woe to evil demons

Who delight

In smothering the goodness

Of this night

For Satan plays the tune

To which they dance

And all seems fun

Obsessed

And in their trance

Until the moment

They shall see their fate

and find

It is...just then

A heart beat late.
