Make It Simple

Make it simple and you will 

Love it more ,

I hope you choose to be happy .

Always push yourself forward .

I see there is something

Special in your eyes almost everyday .

At the end of each day ,

I hope you choose to be just fine .

When you complain ,

You will remain ,

When you praise the Lord ,

He will show up

And he will raise you up .

Make your life simple

By thinking a rain as a blessing

And once a day always say

Son of a gun lets have some fun  .

Grandpa's Hands

You will always fit into grandpa's hands .

Grandpa will use his hands

To make his grandson into a man .

With your hair in a small way

You bring your great grandpa to life .

I can see him smiling .

As your grandpa ,

I will clutch you in an instant  .

I will show you and therefore

Teach you love and compassion .

You are a miracle to me .

You are priceless

Your value to me can not be told .

You are the most precious thing to me .

I will give you a heart of gold

And you are all boy .

Thank you Lord ,

For what you have given us

For now he is in our hands .

Everyone Is Special

Make someone feel special 

Just give them a touch like a hug

You would be surprised

The people who do not look like

They need a special hug or your touch

Really need that special touch .

We can not do enough  .

If you do not have 2 arms use one ,

If you have no arms use your legs

To rap around their legs !

If you have no arms or legs

Use your eyes and your heart

To give someone your special hug

Or your special touch

And they will never forget

Your special hug or touch .

Use your imagination

And the possibilities are unlimited .

Do what ever you can to make

Someone feel special each day ,

If its only to be with someone

For just a while  just to touch them

In a special way ,

You will make their day .

Time Is Time

Time runs on much more

Than batteries .

Time can not be seen

Especially when it flies by

A child will ask why .

I can sure get lost

With time as well.

With time I can be free .

One thing for sure time

Does not stand still at all .

At my age I am sensitive to time .

To do anything big or small

We need to use time wisely

For time is time .

                         By Brock

I Suppose Life

When ever I hear the lose of life

Because of a gun .

Its like pulling a scab

Off my heart all over again

My tears may flow for hours  .

Once in a while after hearing

The lose of life because of a gun .

I have to go and plow the road ahead .

There are to many of life's score boards

Closing to soon .

I wish , I could play the game

I suppose

Just one more time with them .

To Be Baptized

When he is baptized ,

He is cleaned

That is not easy

For me to say

For I have so many

Dirty rags around me .

I still will try

To keep him clean .

I want him to be

Better than I .

He is new and will be clean  .

I am old ,

But we will all be blessed ,

When he is baptized .

When Your Old

When your old ,

You are entitled to your opinion .

When your old ,

You will know

people who react out of fear not love .

When your old

You don't need

What you need

Until you need it .

When your old ,

Somethings become easy to say

Yet hard to hear .

When your old ,

You have all your needs in spades .

When your old

There are no rules just rights .

Your not that old

So listen to your elders

For you might learn something

Like remember the sun will never blow away !!

She made Time

Grandma taught me how to live .

She made time for me .

She said you can touch the sky .

You can dig yourself out of almost anything .

You need to believe in yourself

And never give up on your dream

And most of all take one day at a time .

I will try and teach my grandson the same .

                                               By Brock

What I Know For Sure

When you smile , I will smile again .

When you fall apart ,

I will hold you together .

When you cry , I will dry your tears  .

When you are cold , I will keep you warm .

When you have something important to say ,

I will listen .

When you are proud of yourself  ,

I will be more proud of you .

When you pray , We will pray together .

Your family will keep you strong

And happy and you will be a star

In our eyes forever for sure .

This is what I know for sure .

A Chosen One

Remember many are invited

But few are chosen .

You can not get any where

Without the Lord beside

You all the time .

He shields you from all wrong

The Lord will lift you up higher

Than the stars .

The lord will give you a pinch of heaven ,

If you give your love to the Lord ,

And you become baptized

You will be one of the chosen ones .

There Is Always Time

There is always a time

To look strong .

There are times

I just want to wash somethings away .

There are times

I just want to turn the page .

I know I can not fight myself .

I know I need to stay within myself ,

But I know I can cry at anytime

Because I am Irish in my eyes .

When I talked to you ,

Did you think I was strong ?

Outside

When you spend time outside

You will see more than you can believe .

You treat things differently

When you are outside .

Being outside you truly

Feel more alive .

Things outside are never the same as yesterday .

You can hear softer and quieter things

In all different sizes and yet they can be so beautiful  ,

When your outside .

More dreams come true

When your not inside .

                                                  By Brock

My love

My love for you will never die

Like the stars up in the sky .

My love for you is forever true

Like the guardian angel

That's just for me and you .

We will chase after moon beams

Just you and me .

We will never know

That we are getting old .

Because our love will never die .

A Plan

Do you  have a 10 year plan

And 10 years of hopes ?

Do you have a 5 year plan

And 5 years of hopes ?

Do you have a 3 year plan

And 3 years of hopes ?

Do you have a 1 year plan

And one year of hopes .

Do you have a day planed

And a day of hope  ?

What do you have ?

Remember the Lord

Has a plan and he has hopes

For you always .

Wildly Enthusiastic

I still get wildly enthusiastic

About little things ,

I play with leaves .

I do not skip down the street  .

I still run against the wind  .

When I run against the wind ,

The wind can sure suck

Some mornings .

When I run hard ,

I can solve some problems .

When I run with the wind ,

I run fast .

I can even grab a wild leave

Out of the cool air of a early morning

As it  blows by me .

Oh its just a little thing .

                            By Brock

A Real True Friend

A real true friend is someone

Who when you make a fool of yourself

He does not feel that you

Have done a permanent job in doing it .

Friendship is given by friendship .

The only way to have a friend

Is to be one .

My friend has a friend and his friend

Has a friend so be discreet

When you need to be .

A real true friend is made by many acts

But can be lost by only one

A real true friend knows that .

I hope we all have more than one true friend .

The Angels

Learn all you can about angels

It's a form of higher education .

Grandma said you always

Have an angel by your side .

Angels come to help and guide

Us in so many ways .

The guardian angel

Hovers protectively over us .

The essence of the angel

Is one who comes to us

With the ability to communicate

Perfectly with us .

I just do not want the angels

To play ball real well for 3 games !!!!
