Why art thou so sad, dear Daddy?
I makes me sad to see you this way, little laddie,
He writes about sad and gloom,
It makes me want to escape to my room.

It may not be so bad,
But still to see him writing about death makes me sad,
I write about light, sunshine, and sunrays;
While he writes about funreals, knells and lays.

Cheer up, dear Daddy,
There is still sunshine, little laddie,
There is sunshine for you;
Under skies of royal blue!

*~Marian~

Even saffron painted sunsets
Could not paint thy beauty, dear Lady Jane
Because you're my girl
Rosy colored flowers
Adorn thy soft, furry head
And you're still my girl
Rich orange sunrises that lace the horizon
As beautiful as they are, you're more beautiful still
Because you're my girl
Warm sunlight imbued with mist
Could not paint a better nature picture
But thy beauty surpasses that
For you're my girl
Bless your paws and bless your whiskers
And your twitchy tail
You're my girl
Soft cool sandy shores and greenish-blue waves
Foamy and frothy though they be
Couldn't be more beautiful
But surpasses even the beauty of the ocean
Is the beauty of thee
Lullabies from the fairies spreading pixie dust
As they fly above thy head
They whisper soft and sweet
"You're still our girl, and our princess
And surpassing even the beauty of nature
Is the beauty of thee
And the beauty of thy soft, sweet furry face"

*~Marian~

The mighty God, even the
Lord, hath spoken, and
called the earth from the rising
of the sun unto the going down
thereof.
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of
beauty, God hath shined.
3 Our God shall come, and
shall not keep silence: a fire shall
devour before him, and it shall be
very tempestuous round about
him.
4 He shall call to the heavens
from above, and to the earth, that
he may judge his people.
5 Gather my saints together
unto me; those that have made a
covenant with me by sacrifice.
6 And the heavens shall
declare his righteousness: for God
is judge himself. Selah.
7 Hear, O my people, and I will
speak, O Israel, and I will testify
against thee: I am God, even thy
God.
8 I will not reprove thee for
thy sacrifices or thy burnt
offerings, to have been continually
before me.
9 I will take no bullock out of
thy house, nor he goats out of thy
folds.
10 For every beast of the forest
is mine, and the cattle upon a
thousand hills.
11 I know all the fowls of the
mountains: and the wild beasts of
the field are mine.
12 If I were hungry, I would not
tell thee: for the world is mine,
and the fulness thereof.
13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or
drink the blood of goats?
14 Offer unto God thanksgiving;
and pay thy vows unto the
most High:
15 And call upon me in the day
of trouble: I will deliver thee, and
thou shalt glorify me.
16 But unto the wicked God saith,
What hast thou to do to declare my
statutes, or that thou shouldest
take my covenant in thy mouth?
17 Seeing thou hatest
instruction, and castest my words behind
thee.
18 When thou sawest a thief,
then thou consentedst with him,
and hast been partaker with
adulterers.
19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil,
and thy tongue frameth deceit.
20 Thou sittest and speakest
against thy brother; thou
slanderest thine own mother's son.
21 These things hast thou done,
and I kept silence; thou thoughtest
that I was altogether such an
one as thyself: but I will reprove
thee, and set them in order
before thine eyes.
22 Now consider this, ye that
forget God, lest I tear you in
pieces, and there be none to
deliver.
23 Whoso offereth praise
glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth
his conversation aright will I
shew the salvation of God.

I Hope She Heard
That Little Tiny Word
I Uttered On The Breeze
"I Love You"
Because I Know With All My Heart
That Is It Is Very True

I Can Only Hope
She Has A Goodnight
And Gets Even A Little Bit Of Rest
Oh, Mother Dear, If Only
There Was Something I Could Say...
Something I Could Do

*~Marian~

The owls doth roam and birds do sleep at night
Millions of stars twinkling in the dark sky
The moon in the starry night sky puts forth light
The morning is very soon drawing nigh!
All is so quiet, peaceful, and so cold
Night wears it's gown of pretty midnight blue
Wears colours dark by night, by day picks bold
I know this to be acurately true!
Cars silently driving by on the street
I snuggle underneath my warm comforter
The moon watches over people that sleep
Sometimes I hear at night a rain shower.
I sit here on my bed watching cars drive
When I'm asleep all my dolls come alive!

*~Marian~

I float out to sea like driftwood
Other times I find myself windswept
Higher and higher
In autumn gusts of wind
In summertime my beautiful green skin
Is a youthfully verdant hue
I cling to this told old tree
And provide a canopy
Until one day I find myself delicate
And easy to crumble in your hands
For I have withered
When winter comes
I will become invisible
And insignificant underneath
A blanket of sparkling white snow
My life goes unnoticed and I long to be loved
But no one loves a trivial leaf like me
Yet this is my life and I am content
With being who I am
Even though I am forgotten and alone

**~Marian~

Cheer up, my friend!
I am always here for you,
My Daddy is too!!

I was standing where the sweet daisies grow
And it was there I saw your pretty face
It belonged to a feline tuxedo
Who always smiled so bright and jumped with grace
I was sitting in the dark forest here
Where time doth always stand still and dreams grow
I saw your face so very crystal clear
It belonged to my darling Silvestro
On the island beside the ocean dear
I saw you wading in the deep-blue waves
Everywhere I look you're always near
I even saw you sitting by the graves
You are always on my bed at night
I'm glad to write this for such a fair wight

Part 5

From ferns to pebbles,
From creeks to rivers and lakes,
From mountains to moors.

From birds to tall trees,
Beauty in all animals,
From kitties to bears.

From mountains to fields,
Flowers very soft and sweet,
Grass tickles my feet!

Breezes soft that stir,
Cool, fan and caress my face,
Very beautiful!

Sunrays that shine through
Even the darkest of days,
Also light up trees!

Sunshine in your heart,
Dancing and smiling at you,
With a warm brightness!

Sing a song in your
Heart for nothing can go wrong,
With God by your side.

I am always here
For my dear and closest friends,
And my parents too.

God is here for you,
Always knocking at your heart,
Will you accept Him?

Jesus will always
Carry your burden for you,
If you ask Him to.

So sing a sweet song,
One so full of love and joy,
With God by your side!

*~Marian~

Like a red rose that blooms,
My Mamma doesn't need feather plumes,
All she needs is love;
The everlasting love from above!

She dearer than all Mothers,
Daughters, sisters, and brothers,
For my Mamma is innocent and pure;
She never does anything unless of it she is sure!

*~Marian~

My son, if thou wilt receive
my words, and hide my
commandments with thee:
2 So that thou incline thine ear
unto wisdom, and apply thine
heart to understanding;
3 Yea, if thou criest after
knowledge, and liftest up thy
voice for understanding;
4 If thou seekest her as silver,
and searchest for her as for hid
treasures;
5 Then shalt thou understand
the fear of the Lord, and find the
knowledge of God.
6 For the Lord giveth wisdom:
out of his mouth cometh
knowledge and understanding.
7 He layeth up sound wisdom
for the righteous: he is a buckler
to them that walk uprightly.
8 He keepeth the paths of
judgment, and preserveth the way of
his saints.
9 Then shalt thou understand
righteousness, and judgment, and
equity; yea, every good path.
10 When wisdom entereth into
thine heart, and knowledge is
pleasant unto thy soul;
11 Discretion shall preserve
thee, understanding shall keep
thee:
12 To deliver thee from the way
of the evil man, from the man that
speaketh froward things;
13 Who leave the paths of
uprightness to walk in the ways of
darkness;
14 Who rejoice to do evil, and
delight in the frowardness of the
wicked;
15 Whose ways are crooked,
and they froward in their paths:
16 To deliver thee from the
strange woman, even from the
stranger which flattereth with her
words;
17 Which forsaketh the guide
of her youth, and forgetteth the
covenant of her God.
18 For her house inclineth
unto death, and her paths unto the
dead.
19 None that go onto her return
again, neither take they hold of
the paths of life.
20 That thou mayest walk in the
way of good men, and keep the
paths of the righteous.
21 For the upright shall dwell in
the land, and the perfect shall
remain in it.
22 But the wicked shall be cut
off from the earth, and the
transgressors shall be rooted out
of it.

Summer has murdered the fairest of Springs
Green leaves have withered upon the tree boughs
Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds do not sing
Breezes no longer through the pine trees sough
Summer has torn out the heart of the dove
Sunshine no longer dapples on the path
Butterflies no longer dance up above
Summer is glad with the power it hath
Now the bluest of skies has bled to grey
Farewell, sweet sapphire skies no more to see
Now there is only one hour in a day
And withered flowers never waltz gladly
Spring is dead and Summer is here to stay
Now Time and Happiness have run away

*~Marian~

You are a sweet heart,
A sweet special twin sister,
I love you so much!

**~Marian~

Colours big and bright,
It will soon be night.
A day is dying,
Leaving me crying!

The sunset turns grey,
The end of a day,
Your colours so bright,
Are turning so dark!

Now the moon and stars,
Are shining at night,
The colours so bright;
Have so soon faded.

The colours faded,
It is now twilight,
Your colours so bright;
Have so soon faded!

*~Marian~

I found your printer ink, Dad
I stubbed my toe a few times
When I was trying to search for it
This is my surprise for you
Maybe this isn't such a good
Surprise after all?

*~Marian~

Mist of love,
Fills the forest sky,
Created only by God above;
And the morning is drawing nigh.

Swiftly the world awakes,
And the mist is fading away,
Mist stops filling the air around the far off lake;
And before we know it shortly, also fades like mist the day.

*~Marian~

The thunder rumbles in the distance
I cringe after every boom
The breezes pick up
And stir the tall evergreens
The light in the evening sky has faded
Black clouds line the sky
Where has the sunshine gone?
The familiar scent of rain
Perfumes the stifling summer air
Lightening flashes in the sky
My heart beat quickens
With every bolt of electricity
That brightens up the horizon
Like a display of fireworks
On the fourth of July

*~Marian~

Lanterns swing lonely
In bitter howling wind
The howl of a distant wolf
Flames flicker in the night
And she is lost—lost
Never to be found again

**~Marian~
