Wishing U Were Here

Enjoying the sight of the big muddy Viewing nature’s beauty Looking at the barges at rest Wishing u were here by the red stick with me Talking about the meanders of our lives Staring in each other’s eyes Trying diligently Freeing myself from you and my evil daddy Wanting u to be here badly Asking God why He brought me here Getting sad by the minute Remembering all that happened this year and in the past Feeling the love for you that will forever last Wishing u were here with me physically Gazing at the flow of the mighty Mississippi Thanking the God almighty for whatever outcome Realizing no matter how bad you and my dad were to me, He deserves all of the love and He is where real love comes from. Wishing u were here to share the sights of some of God’s gifts, me The Red Stick and the mighty Mississippi. (@ SUBR at river bluff) 7-19-09

Beautiful description of the woman sitting alongside the Mississippi river trying to sort out her thoughts about how she was brougt to this place. Your faith that God will answer your questions and prayers is inspiring, Nicole. Wish I could have been sitting with you watching the muddy waters flow. Love, Carolyn
