Scars

Your scars make you who you are .
One day the scars
Will become memories .
You have always been in my heart
Since we have been apart .
Never forget that in the difficult 
Moments of life  ,
That is when God is closest .
                            I Love You All

Time Goes By

In a blink of an eye
Life will change 
In so many ways .
Years ago we were all a family .
Everyone looked out for everyone .
We played and drank together .
We need to get back together 
Like the good old days 
And take care of each other 
Instead of breaking each other down .
We all may be broken down .
Over time 
But we need each other more .
Remember we all are like broken 
Crayons ,
When a crayon brakes 
There is still color to share with everyone .

Life Is Ironic

At my age today 
I know it takes sadness
To know happiness.
Each day is a new blessing .
It takes noise to appreciate silence .
Oh the memories I have created 
Will always stay with me .
Oh how time flies by .
A lot of things in my life 
Will eventually fade away .
One day I may be just 
A memory to my grandson.
I hope he remembers me 
As someone who deeply loved him .
I sure know life is ironic, my boy .

My New Niece

You are so loved .
You are somebody's 
Reason to smile .
You take petty 
To a whole new level .
I may be lucky 
To see you 
For just a while .
When you go outside
And play 
And you go pick 
Some daffodils
For your mom one day.
No matter how old you are 
The flowers that you pick 
And all those daffodils 
Around you 
Will not glow 
Like my little niece
I will always call Smiley

A Child

When a child leaves me without saying goodby 
That ordinary day 
Becomes the day that changed everything for me .
I know I need to keep picking myself up .
I keep reaching for the phone to call 
Then I remember , he will no longer answer .
The world keeps moving ,
But part of my heart stays back 
To when you left .
Some pain never fades .
I simply learn to carry 
It with tears hidden 
Behind every smile I make .
I know missing you 
Is my reminder 
Your love will never end .
                                     I Love You All

Not a Judge

God wants to hear from us .
Our Creator loves us and wants 
The best for us .
And because God is so good ,
We should never give up or praying .
God is listening ,
And if we keep on praying 
And believing ,
We can trust God will answer .

To Allow

I try not to allow myself 
To become to busy 
With surviving that I forget 
How to truly live .
At my age today I do not see
To well ,
But I want to follow the Lord's 
Foot steps .
Life is not only about responsibilities 
And routines ,
I need to control my controlables .
It is also about finding reasons 
To laugh and smile 
And sharing moments
With loved ones 
And appreciating the beauty
Hidden in ordinary days .
                          I Love You All
