Accountable

Secrecy is suicide  .

Satan wants me to think

That I can fight 

This battle on my own .

He uses shame and fear to keep me 

Isolated and alone .

I have my days .

I may think that I

am the only I struggling 

With trouble and pain

I know that is not true. .

Seeking help and revealing 

My battles

May be the most difficult thing

I will ever find .

Yes I found hope  

Praying to God .

A Message

I am to believe 

I got a message saying it is from you .

I do not believe it .

You do not know anything 

About breaking a camel’s back .

You say you want a distance  from me .

You are near yet far away from me ‘

You are special and mean 

So much to me .

I am tracing our memories 

As I sit here and pray this Sunday .

I believe in Hope .

My Grandson

You have been mad at me

For a long long time 

And I still do not understand .

I do not see the love in your eyes .

My world will keep turning .

I well get along . 

I will be here if you need me some day .

I wish you would lay your body

Next to grandpa 

Just one more quiet night .

I am glad we had some good times

Together 

As the angels watch over us .

Do not forget your grandpa 

Because he loves you 

No matter what  .

Oh the memories 

Oh those good times 

With my Smiley grandson .

                 I Love You All

Wait Wait

What in the world 

Does it mean to wait

Is it to wait for the Lord 

In my time of need

With Pain in my heart 

Will it distract me from God 

Will the waiting point me to God 

Can I focus on God 

While I am waiting for God 

I believed I can receive God’s promise 

Of strength and hope 

While I am waiting for God. 

                             I Love You All

Classroom

Quietness is the classroom 

 Where you learn to hear .

That is what my dad said .

 May I  learn to love you more and more .

Jesus thanks for being for me

Not against me .

I know I will have trouble in my life 

But I need to take heart 

For You have overcome the world .

Being quiet when trouble comes 

And use the worry heads

Is one way to go .

Always remember the power 

Of God’s presence 

Can hold us steady in our dark times  .

I need to listen when God talks .

Trust

When you are struggling 

Like most of us 

Who do you trust  

Or what do you trust 

To get you through

Money , your friends ,

A best friend ?

If any of those things

Are what you count on 

And you are still experiencing 

Fear and unhappiness

Perhaps these are not the things 

To save you ?

God is the one  

We should put our trust in .

I Talked To The Lord

I talked to someone about you today .

Some how I knew you would understand .

Today I met a friend of mine today 

At our favorite place 

We talked for a while 

And we talked face to face .

He asked if there was anything on my mind ?

Yes I talked to someone  about you today .

I told him what you were going through .

After what I told him 

I felt like he already knew .

He said he loved you .

And he thinks about you all the time .

He knew your heart was broken .

He put his arms around me 

And told me everything will be Ok

As he and I walked away .

Roses And Violets

Roses are red violets are blue .

Oh how I want to be with you .

You may be sleeping soundly. .

You may not wake up happy 

I only hope you still love me  .

Oh I want to be near you .

I want your cheeks to be red  .

And I do not even want you to be blue  .

I love you and and I hope to see you soon ,

How about Sunday at 2:30   If not today ?

I hope you are having sweet dreams 

Not about roses or violets 

But about me .

I have dreams about you and me 

Day and night

And dreams do come true .

I have no roses or violets today 

But I have my love for you only .

                                  I Love You All

A Summer Morning

As I sit out back and the sun is up 

I sit in my chair and think of happy memories.

I can not smile loud this morning .

I see a family of ants craw by me

And my shoe laces

And think about my uncle 

Who would say just sit and watch them go .

I looked again down on the patio .

The South Dakota wind will dry 

My tears .

 The sun is so bright 

The sky is clear.

The beautiful memories 

Keep flowing 

My eyes are not dry just yet 

But I will always have the memories .
