Sweet Clover
It is sweet clover blossoms,
That bring delight to the nose,
Their blooms are inexpensive,
For bouquets these blooms kids chose.

Even in the coldest months,
Their blossoms when in perfume,
Have a sweet, lovely fragrance,            
Like sweet clover when in bloom.

When the lawns are full of it,
In the summer bees swarm there,
To get their share of nectar,
That sweet clover blooms do bear.

God's guidance we should ask for,
Not just when troubles arise.              
God wants us truly happy,
This we ought to realize.

God doesn't want us to have,
The things that cause us to sin.
We are called to live holy,
In his grace He wants us in.

If in life we're to succeed ,
In a spiritual way,
God's ways we need as our guide,
And strength we get when we pray.

The Ten Commandments are the signs,
That we find on heaven's road,
Help we need to reach heaven,
Us, God's Commandments will goad.

Give us guidance, Lord, we need,
To find peace while we're on earth.
Our love for you and others,
Help us never have a dearth.

A Heavenly Pillow Fight
Duck down profuse fills the sky,
When with pillows angels fight.
It's the next best thing next to snow.
It can happen day or night.

Duck down ***** do not stick well,    
When hit with one they don't hurt.  
The ground is a white carpet,
When down lands on grass and dirt.

A pillow fight in heaven,
Fills the sky with beauty white;
As the duck down floats about,
It's a sight of much delight.

A pillow fight in heaven,
Ought to happen more often.

And the help of which I need.

Not approved by God above.

Better we'd like life to be.
For the good things that we have,
Let us thank God joyously.

He calls us all to love him,
And also our neighbors too.

Snow Drops
In the air each snowflake drops.  
Each flake is white and unique.
Coming down in a blizzard,
It then caps the mountain peak.

The snow looks very lovely.
Black ice, lovely, sure is not.
When there's a severe blizzard,
Snowflakes profuse are a lot.

When weather is bitter cold,
Comfort is not to be had,
When winter has frigid winds,
I won't be one who is glad.

I'll hibernate like a bear,
When the snow drops from the air.

More than emeralds that shine,
Brightness in your heart I find,  
Making its way into mine.          

Friend, when it comes to sweetness,
Your heart has very much of.
Your heart is kind and gentle,
Being one profuse with love.

Competing with heaven's stars,
I find your smiles that shine bright.

That's when your smiles, them, ignite.

Your smiles sure are outstanding,
Darkness, they can get rid of.
Darkness can not stay near them,.
Due to brightness of your love.

You are a special angel,
My angelic caring friend.
Your heart of golden sunshine,
Has a sparkling, brilliant blend.

Making Straw
When the wheat from fields are reaped,  
There's much work yet to be done.
Stalks are then cut and harrowed,
Then they're dried by wind and sun.

The work done by the bailer,
Compacts straw that's in furrows,
After twine tightens the straw,
Each bale off the baler goes.

Today lets forget the gym,    
It's the day that we make straw.
It's time to work our muscles.
From rest it's time to withdraw.

There'll be work on the trailer,  
And there'll be work on the field.
The work is more exhausting,        
Where the wheat had a good field.

Bales are brought to the trailer,    
Where they're thrown then stacked on it.
The work is sure exhausting,
But its not yet time to quit.

Byhe bale escalator, 
To the barn times bales are brought.
When there's no escalator,
We then work more than we ought.

Stacking bales inside the barn,  
Laborious it's there too;
When the bales are put away,
To the kitchen we head to.

On this St. Patrick's Day night,
Green light is seen in the sky.
Stars aren't the main attraction.
Do you know the reason why?

Big shamrocks are in the sky,          
Making stars appear real wee;
Light up like bright emeralds,           
What an awesome sight they be.

When your smiles ricochet there,
They bring gold forth from your heart.
The gold that surrounds shamrocks,
Is a piece of Irish art.

Shamrocks out on St, Pat's night,
Fill the sky with sheer delight.

We can carry life's crosses,
When we have help from the Lord.
We should live as God wants us,
God's help should not be ignored.

God wants us all to have peace.
And it,  He will help us find.
Life's crosses will get lighter,
And we'll find more peace of mind.

When we live as He wants us,
He will help us through each day.
Helping with the crosses weight,
Through the day with us He'll stay.
I found a cute teddy bear.
A home he was in need of.
Would you like to see my friend?
She has a heart full of love.

This talking bear said to me,
Buy me and to her take me.
When I gave the bear to her,
She smiled very happily.

You knew what I would ask for,
Tell me if you've ESP.
She asked me , what is his name?
UI said his name is ''Honey''.

I made a hit Saint Val's Day,
At my friend's house, now he'll stay.
