Our children are the guiding lights of our future,

Let them shine.

One day the smallest spark

Might be enough to light up the world.

We're all headed to the same destination.
Why not take the scenic route?
Short, simple, but still meaningful. I like this little thought a lot.

Pain in my heart too deep
Swallowing agony so steep
Eyes getting ready to weep
But nay will i be a sheep
For the lion to make me shriek

Take that chance, take the fall
because falling is the first step to flying,
It is the landing you have to worry about
You may fall but never land.
You never really know what you get
until you are sure you want it.
Be sure, and by what i can see,
you want your illuminating star,
no matter how much you push away,
the gravity of that star pulls you in.
So listen to me....take the fall,
because it might just be
the best **** ride you're given in this life.

You remind me of daffodils...
Oh, how silly life had been
T'was all so sweet, but I was left with your after taste

When Life Gives You Lemons...

We were*  together
We laughed we tried and we lived

We’ve been together 7 years
Blind Faith is all we know
So just like Ruth I speak this truth
Where you go I will go

When struggles made us face our fears
Firm to the winds that blow
That we still elevate our years
With what we reap we sow

I want to live where you live
In harmony and peace
Only you my love to give
Till my last breath will cease

You question love and life
My Dear, you say the bar is low
No need for taking flight
No need to wonder if I’ll go

Much of my past was full
Of change that struck like lightening
Frantic and tense the rule
Unpredictable and frightening

We’ll share more moments together
Even with some push and shove
This sheltering tree I treasure
Basking in our blooming love

I repeat it’s true
With a glad free heart once again
Just to be with you
Is the best place I’ve ever been
Sentimental, I realize, but that's who I am.  I write a special anniversary poem for Bill, and this is what came out for our 7th anniversary-no apologies.

Revealing a secret
That night turns

Just follow my wandering mind
my heart will be there.

If you've never burnt the candle
At both ends
You'll never know when to break
Or how far
You can bend
