Your Set Time

Your set time has come . 

She always pushed the darkness away 

She would stop what was stopping me .

She would in kindle in me 

With the fire of her love .

She would help everyone 

Strive for maturity .

If I fell 7 times ,

She would pick me up every time .

She tried to push everyone's dream .

With her journey there was always

Joy and faith and caring in her heart

For every one she met .

My Home

My home is one step closer to heaven .

When I am home ,

I can be still and nourish my soul

As I spend time with you in prayer .

When I am with you Lord ,

Help me pursue you

With all my heart and mind .

When I am afraid 

To make a decision ,

I think about why that might be 

So I pray .

Lord teach me to number my days

So that I may gain a heart of wisdom

After I pray in my home

For it is your home too.

Thank you Lord for what you have done

For me today I pray .

Grow Up Never

I am getting old

But I will never grow up .

When I play with my grandson

Down on my knees ,

I am down to our fun level

He will understand my love  .

Our celebration begins 

On the floor on our knees

All the things down here are good indeed .

We are both bigger than the cars we drive .

We both take time to take our naps together .I

I tell him we need to take naps and to be aware 

Of the angels who take care

Of us always 

No matter how old we are

And we will race the cars again 

When we get up from our naps 

And your grandpa will truly never

Grow up ever .

From A Baby To A Man

 From A Baby To A Man

I wish you were still a baby

And oh so small .

I often miss my little smiley

My little big guy .

His ears are squeaky 

And they will always be squeaky .

He filled my days 

With pure delight

Especially at our nap time .

You change and grow

As the seasons come

Then quickly go .

God has a plan I know

To shape you into a man .

I will love you till my days

Are all done .

I am so grateful your my

Grandson 

And now a man.

Keep Your Head High

When you need help

Always keep your head up .

You do not  need to be alone.

I will make the rough ways

Smooth for you  .

I will help to restore your fortunes .

I am confident in you 

So always keep your head held high .

When you need help

Just ask me for help at any time .

I'm always here for ya .

Oh To Dance

Oh when I was young 

And I wanted to just fit in

Some girls would not dance with me .

When the music was done 

The shadow that would come over my smile .

Oh to dance and for them to touch me .

We were strangers in many ways .

Who will dance with me these days ?

I long to be close and get to truly know

every one in every way .

My God Father

Your birthday is a milestone 

Birthday for me for I am your God Child ..

At 90 it is not a number it is just living .

You contribute to my life .

You will never be

A burden to me .

You always speak the truth

Not what others want to hear even at 90 .

You will always try to negotiate everything 

Even when you have gas on your mind !

You will listen and keep learning .

You will never be truly alone .

When I was young ,

You knew me better than I knew my self .

You never kept score .

You are my God Father until the end of time .

You will always have an open heart and mind

And soul to all possibilities at 90 and beyond .
