| you are not alone... Posted: 12/7/2008 11:29:26 AM | I watched a hawk as on my way I did so start Wonder and amazement swept deep within my heart I stopped the vehicle and put respect in that birds way Didn't dare impose as surely I had done on previous days Its difficult to describe the joy that overtook me as I quietly sat in peaceful revelry Yet a bit sorrowful that I was not so free Its almost as if I wanted the hawk to notice me in the same fashion that I was beholden such magnifience Silly that such granduer I wanted also to be related to me And in hindsight I now see The hawk and I have both been created free | |

'Looking back', has he brought you through?
Yes...time and time again.
Success...May It Be.
Emotions turning a soul so yearning answers it cries out for guidance needed towards life's next open door a mind ever constant in bending no solidity of a decision this world is sending when quietly a spirit stops in wait ponder with great thought it does it's fate words of wisdom are sent from far away this battle you must take up this day completion of this you must comply drum up your courage; you shall not die "I believe in you" is spoken without words not said "follow this path in which you have been lead;" for to swallow defeat would be a bitter pill .....as your father, I stand beside you to do God's will
So with a heart full of hope reigning free believing that things in time will come to be set forth with trembling feet does this spirit ahead believing...so believing that she with an army of prayer is lead when all is over, in sunshine she will lovingly bask for when in that moment of challenge, she boldly set to task a belief in what she was doing gave motivation to endure love walking alongside each step aided in her being sure victory one day would be her's to hold up high a heart once again reunited, would evoke to heaven's above a triumphant cry! | |

| you are not alone... Posted: 12/8/2008 10:41:11 AM | Flipping through pictures trying to hold on to your smile I see such a spirit within your eyes to my own soul of your strength I put it to file your laughter echos in my memory softness of your forehead my lips did nightly touch to hold you to me once again my child of this I long for so very much patience I must hold for soon again you will be with me I fight this fight for love so that for once we can all be free..... | |

| My Little Man... Posted: 12/19/2008 9:16:47 AM | Always good and Domut! Thank you for those proverbial thoughts!
Another year has come and gone! Hard to believe its been that long The years they fly like wings of doves It's hard to show you all my love!
A little grinning Angels grown into the Man that I now know No longer chasing frogs or trains skipping rocks or building planes
His heart is full of love for one His honest soul outshines the sun He gleams a light where ere he goes To see his smile a goodheart knows!
This little Angel has earned his Wings To all he knows , goodness he brings To me he represents my heart ! My son , you did right from the start!
My son turned 21 yesterday! To be so Proud and Thankful for just one thing... It would be my Beautiful son! I Love you Joshua! :) | |

| My Little Man... Posted: 12/23/2008 1:55:02 PM | Blessed are we in this life to watch sweet children grow a heart is brought to utter completeness when this unconditional love we are made to know hold tight do we these shared childhood memories never to be forgotten always to keep us warm within for years to come a child's face reflected in our minds warms like a brilliant sun. | |

| Missing Stars Posted: 12/23/2008 2:46:06 PM | The shining diamond frosty wall that shones upon my glass The cardinal singing on the snow that says "This too shall ...pass" A Heaven sent dark blue Moon that shines on all thats white The snowflakes that fall gently down and touch my face so lightly Of all the Loved ones that I miss so much this time of year... Their presence is so deeply felt making all so very clear! When once these things they so enjoyed come rest within my sight; this tells me they have come again Their love is in Angelic Flight!
Always :) | |

| Infinite Memories Posted: 12/30/2008 12:49:25 PM | well here goes , this is about no person in particular but hey you can have it 4 u if you want it. thanks have a good read.
TIME FOR A RED ROSE When I look from my window out, I see the time passing me by, I see the rose shining red and true, And all I wanted was to really know you.
I sit here alone and wonder why, The fire is lit, and catches my eye, I start to think about it all, When a small tear, in my eye starts to fall.
I try to relax and always unwind, But always have things on my mind, I have a friend that is wise and true, Told me what I need to do.
I sit her now and wonder why, I had that tear in my eye, And now I know why this is true, It was because, all of you.
I thank you so much for your kind, I now know that I, had it on my mind, And when you came to my door, Time stood still forever more. | |

I sit here and wonder with a tear in my eye, Why it is i never said goodbye, I waited for you too call But i hear nothing, nothing at all, I wish i was there to hold you tight, And squeeze you, with all my might, I’ll hug you forever, forever more When you hear a knock on your door, Your time has come for you to say Hello and wow what a wonderfull day. | |

~OneRepublic~
~All Fall Down~
Step out the door and it feels like rain That's the sound (that's the sound) on your window pane Take to the streets but you can't ignore That's the sound (that's the sound) you're waiting for
You feel that your will starts crashing down Whenever you're will starts crashing down Whenver your will starts crashing down That's when you find me.
Yeah God love your soul and your aching bones Take a breath, take a step, maybe down below Everyone's the same My fingers to my toes We just can't get a ride But we're on the road
If ever your will starts crashing down Whenever your will starts crashing down Whenever your will starts crashing down That's when you find me.
Chorus:
(Yeah) Lost til you're found Swim til you drown
Know that we all fall down Love til you hate Jump til you break Know that we all fall down
If ever your will starts crashing down Whenever your will starts crashing down If ever your will starts crashing down That's when you'll find (find) me
Lost til you're found Swim til you drown Know that we all fall down Love til you hate Jump til you break Know that we all fall down
All fall down, we all fall down, all fall down We all fall down, all fall down, all fall down
Lost til you're found Swim til you drown Know that we all fall down Love til you hate Jump til you break Know that we all fall down
Good Stuff~! :) | |

| Infinite Memories Posted: 1/5/2009 5:12:39 PM | Old John
He’d smell faintly of peach brandy As he contemplated over a cob pipe. Blue, cherry smoke drifting downwind.
He’d look past you with cataract eyes And give you a pearly white grin. It’s a fine, fine day, he’d say.
His voice carried strong when he spoke. Grumblin' like a slant six Goin’ all out down a county road.
He played a ragged old 12 string Always said it was his Pappy’s Its tune seasoned with two lives lived hard.
He’d set aside his pipe and sing you a song Whether you asked him to or not. Stretching crooked fingers on rheumatoid hands
There was pain when he played But it was in your heart, and not his hand He’d sing truth and love and loss.
Some would walk away with tears. Some with smiles. But every one walked Away with a bit of Old John riding along.
-A highly embellished memory, I guess. Poetic license and all that. Work in progress, as the tempo feels a little off toward the end. I don't want to mess with it too much, though. I don't write too often, but the bug bites every now and then .
-I figured I'd make my first post count.  | |

"My Son"
He'll turn seven in about a month Missing a tooth and full of smiles Maybe he is my key to life For he has opened all sorts of doors
For with his birth I became a man For with his love I have gained strength For with his hugs and kisses I have gained a toughness For there is nothing that I wouldn't do for him
For I know I would give my life for him And I knew it from the moment of seeing his birth | |

| Infinite Memories Posted: 1/11/2009 11:42:47 PM | I know how to be strong Sometimes when I am weak I open my sister’s emails They always make me stronger
I only had to gaze at the latest calendar With copies all over my kitchen now There’s no amazon will power To toast with a diet water
…yes I asked for a diet water at the local …barman’s face…priceless!!! | |

Wolf Moon hid amid clouds last night leaving little room for visual swoon Yet my hands grew claws my dreams gnawed at me inside four walls My destiny called me unto nightmarish folly... while I devoured you in my naughty visual dreams Nothin's as it seems beneath the Wolf Moon!

Aspiration
I trace back slowly this life that I have lived so far thinking about those that stand out possess with their spirit that shining star
So few are there those that stand out make me say those are ones I aspire to be like one day through my memories of human encounters I sit to solemnly play
In reality only two come clearly to mind both of my grandmothers in my mind stand there by all who met them in this world angelic qualities they were believed to share
For in truth they gave to all in need never a wrong word did you hear from their lips no judgment, no cursing, no addictions, no selfishness to themselves or to others did they ever inflict
Their spirits so strong always I do recall even when others around them tried to make them feel small still with very little to call their own they always stood tall I conclude without doubt , to be like them is my wish most of all.
Within me I know that fragments of them I carry of their goodness in this world I strive to be for when others look back upon me one day I want them to remember me with sweet memory. | |

| Infinite Memories Posted: 1/13/2009 12:31:51 PM | yup I howled alittle! lol...well ...it was The Wolf Moon! :)
~Mirror~
I ocassionaly catch a glimpse while passing by the mirror Hair all undone , tied up in a knot no makeup The look on my face the way my face has changed lately It is a welcome picture reminds me of her so much so , sometimes I stop , I stare
My God how I remember her her facial expressions things she said, that I do too That worried look , deep in her eyes that look that nothing can disguise Words I say when I talk to my son the same ole very same old ones she said to me , long ago sometimes brings the tears to flow Seems I have become my Mom Somehow I knew it all along!

| Infinite Memories Posted: 1/14/2009 6:49:51 AM | Absolutely a beautiful write Hummingbird...made my heart go soft, and a sweet smile come across my face. How wonderful that you have sweet memories of your mom, and that she lives within you so strong, and most importantly you carry her life on through you.  | |
