70 Plus

When you are 70 plus 
And you lose children 
At any age or people your age and beyond .
And you will never get them back not really .
You no longer try to understand 
Because time is not on your side  .
You will always show feelings .
When you are happy 
Give into it when you can .
You do not worry about the future 
Because your future is today .
You do not feel guilty 
About the past .
Your mistakes , well you learn from them .
At 70 plus you can still achieve things 
Most people would laugh at you for even trying .
At 70 plus you are not alone .
You do not stop loving 
Nor even stop believing or praying 
Or even stop dreaming your dreams 
But you might sat why did I wait 
So long to even enjoy my life today .

No Other Person

A strong person is not someone 
Who never cries .
A strong person is someone 
Who lets the tears fall for a moment  .
A strong person who gets little hugs 
Can dry big tears .
Their little candles 
Can light the darkness  .
A strong person will always 
Have little memories 
That can last forever .
They know it is the little things 
In their life that brings 
The greatest happiness.
They know to smile once a day .

Getting Old

When you get old 
You do not let anyone 
Tell you how to tie your shoes 
For they have never walked in your shoes .
As you get old 
You really just want to be surrounded 
By only good people .
People that are good for you
And good for your soul..

No Home Land

My home is 572 SQ Feet
And I can hold only so much .
I have 2 windows 
And I can not see to far or to good .
There are no blue ribbons .
I will never reach the top
Of where I want to go right now 
But God is already there in my world .
God is not ready for me yet .
Yes I can go here or there
From where I am now .
I can pray at any time .
They say I live in the heart land 
But I do not see it .
Time does not say a word 
But I can not stay up to late no more .
The tv is always on to loud 
They say 
Or the radio as well  .
I sleep with nothing on 
Because I have no pjs for a reason .
I have nothing to hide no more .
I lock my door every night .
Some nights I sleep with the tv on
Or the radio
Because I ran out of time .
                                         I Love You All

If They Only Knew


When someone sees me 
And they say you should work out 
If they only knew .
True practice is done when no one 
Is watching you work out .
If they only knew 
How many exercises 
And years and roads I have done 
And keep doing even today .
My life has been like a shaky hour glass ,
If they only knew  .
At my age even today 
I do not let anyone tell me 
How to tie my shoes 
For they have not even 
Walked in my shoes once .
Life does not always 
Go the way I plan .
But I do know every 1 of my struggles 
Does help me understand 
To stay strong
Even when I feel tough inside .
I know one day my pain 
Will turn into strength .

When You Are Old

When you are old ,
Be kind to people 
Not because they are nice 
Butbecause you are nice .
When you are old ,
Sometimes you just 
Have to be done 
Not mad not upset 
Just done .
Growing old is a blessing 
That teaches patience  ,
Humility and the ability 
To find joy in simplicity 
Even when life no longer 
Moves as fast as  it once did .

I Need You Smiley

You say I am crazy  .
You get sunshine in your pocket .
I aee tour hands in my eyes .
My camera never blinks 
When I take a shot of you .
It must have been a moon glow 
That gave me you .
I will not sleep 
Until you stay .
If you want to cling 
To someone 
I want it to be me .
I need you to understand 
My ups and downs .
And you will let me sing 
Forever more .
I will never let you feel alone .
You make my life a little sweeter .
I need you Smiley .

Time

Spend time together ,
Do not waist any time .
Make time , share time  ,
There is a time to play .
Time is to short never lone .
Make time to laugh ,
A time to smile ,
A time to dream ,
A time to pray ,
A time to cry .
Always have the goodness
Of Gof
With you all the time .
Time is special .
Do things together as often 
As you can 
For your clock will stop sooner 
Than you think .

Dreams Never Lie

With dreams all things are possible  .
You can imagine 
All that you can imagine 
Any day or night .
Always set your dreams high .
Remember you can 
Never run from your past .
Sometimes a dream will wake you up 
And you will realize  what is right
For you to do with your life .
Dreams never lie .

Squeaky

We did not have you to long  .
We only borrowed you for a while .
You lived with the speed of joy .
You have the muscles to serve .
You were squeaky all the time .
We could get you to smile .
We will miss what we never had 
But we will always love you .
We did everything we could do 
Right or wrong just to be with you .
                              I Love You All

Mary

It is a street light morning .
Mary will you pray to Jesus for me 
That I may have a good day .
Sometimes I am in a dark place 
Way to alone Mary .
I do not see as many people 
And children as I once did .
Now the children must be old .
I am sure you can see .
I have a broken heart 
And I have pains only Jesus and I 
Know where .
I always thought I did the right thing 
So I could spend more time 
With my loved ones 
But it is not to be .
This is my daily confessional .
Mary , I stretch out my legs and work out every day 
So to walk with Jesus 
For I know I am not alone .
Mary , once again will you please pray to Jesus 
For me 
That I may have a good day 
And that I do not have to many 
Ups and down days I pray .
