Thieves of Joy...

No one can take away The smiles you give to me each and every day The comfort and security and most of all love Peace and instruments playing sweet as a dove Nothing alive or dead can steal such a friend Your spirit that stays with me until the end Beings below or above cannot rob what we share The blessing of your wisdom and how much you care Below the earth or in a galaxies far away In other worlds or winds that may stray Can capture your promises and dedication The joy in your arms healing amazing meditation Your hands holding mine as I bow weeping in prayer As you ask why are you weeping? I will never leave I am forever The moments I know you were there In sickness and loneliness when no one would care You were my friend, my comforter, and my staff Wiping my tears while making me laugh No more dancing to someone’s drum But knowing your love is all I need and then some Making impressions wanting someone to be close Thriving for someone to give me their heart as a rose I have the best possession in the universe and worlds to be It is you Jesus and nothing can take that from me…..
