Mary Anne, you are a star.        
Your heart sure does understand.    
Your heart keeps getting bigger,      
As your love makes it expand.    

In your heart, sweetness I find,    
Profuse each and everyday.
When I'm in need of a friend,
I find you not far away.    

Your heart is a rare treasure,
Worth much more than a prized pearl.
I'm very blessed knowing you.
Your heart's beauty does unfurl.          

Unlike your warm gentle heart,
Heaven's stars are way  too hot.  
You are the star of my heart,
For you, friend, I care a lot.

Friend, I treasure your virtues,          
Your patience, hope, and your love.
Your heart brings to mine sunshine,  
Of you I think highly of.

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.

Loving Blessed Mother Mary,
Heaven's path, Mother, help us find.
Help us to stay close to Jesus,
Ask him to show us peace of mind.

In God help us to put our trust,
Lost, Mother help us not become.
Like you Mother help us to strive,        
To become part of God's kingdom.

On the path that leads to heaven,
To it dear Mother show the way.  
Help us stay close to Jesus Crist,                        
On heaven's path help us to stay.      

For our lives, Jesus paid the cost.      
Mother help us not become lost,

Life has it's share of problems,
They are found in everyday.  
At times we're lifted from life's pits
By kind things folks do and say.

Sometimes life's griefs seem too much,
That we seldom realize,
In some of life's dark moments,
Answers can be in disguise.

Wisdom, Lord, bestow on me,
Understanding, help me be:
Lord, help me to do your will,
How to please you help me see.

Help me to be courageous,
And stand for what is right:
How I'm able to serve you,
Give me the needed insight.

In clarity help me see
Gentle help my heart to be:
From me keep away evil,
And bestow on me mercy.

Dar Lord, help my heart be kind,
Give me things I'm in need of:
Needed strength give to me Lord,
And your never- ending love.

During sunrise this morning,
Clouds in bright colors were seen.
Some clouds were pink and peachy,
With a touch of orange  between.

This must have been quite a sight,
Of it my friend told me of.
She said the clouds were sailing,
As they traveled high above.

Through the clouds sunlight made way,
Making them much brighter glow.
This sunrise was sure awesome,
And across the sky did go.

Under a summer's rainbow,
A lovely sight does appear.
A lovely kaleidoscope,
To the gold *** does adhere.

Found around the *** of gold,
Leprechauns there dance a jig,
.Like a pass between mountains,
Their smiles too are also big.

On the arch of the rainbow,
Should a swing be stationed there,
Under a summer's rainbow,
Would one's weight the rainbow bear?

Under a summer's rainbow,
A delightful breeze does blow.

year year when I looked in the sky,
On March seventeenth ,then I could see,  
Many stars were do--ci -doing,
All throughout the whole galaxy.

Normally the stars above are,
Yellow, red, white, and blazing blue;
But it was on that St. Pat's night,
The green shamrocks were far from few.

It was a flabbergasting sight,
One that I will never forget;
So many stars spun like a top,
Each one beautiful, you bet!

A report has been cited,
On Bonito Avenue:
Of apple blossoms profuse,
Waltzing making quite a view.

From the heart of a good friend,
Sunlight travels from her heart:
Igniting every petal
Like a neon work of art.            

To see a sight such as this
Anchormen come here to view.
For sights like this they'll go far,
This one they long to pursue,

Lovely as this is a sight,
In my friend I take delight.

Though flowers don't have blood cells,
Some have intrinsic beauty:
Some when they are in full bloom
Are real delightful to see.      

Some birds pollinate flowers.
In the nectar some delight:              
I delight in the flowers,    
That release sweetness at night.
