We All Will Be Welcome In Paradise

Do you know what we all should do to meet our own expectations 

Embrace the world and our life without all of the hesitations 

See the things as we  once did with love in your heart 

Open our eyes to the world because it's a great way to start 

Shake the hand of the first person you come to regardless of who it may be 

Add a smile  and a sweet hello to make it all complete 

Who knows what you may start it may become a trend 

And you may find by doing so  you have made a new friend 

Offer a helping hand when it is desperately needed 

Who knows what can happen if you need help it may be unimpeded 

Take a look at all we  have done to help out this life of ours 

Are we  taking the steps we need to move our self through the doors 

It's ok if we are not sure but we  keep trying anyway 

Because if in our hearts we know we  tried and did our best today 

Then as long as we all know and we all  understand 

That through love and sharing we will be a part that has already been planned 

And as promised in the end as we have all been apprised 

We will be welcomed with open arms deep into paradise

Beauty In Everything

I see around me from my eyes 

The beauty in all things are in disquise 

Take a moment and just see 

Wonderous things for you and for me 

Watch  children at  play see how they smile

Hear them laugh all the while 

Watch the sun come up or the rain fall down

See the light up above or Hear the thunderous sounds 

See a small little bud turn into a rose 

Watch it blossom and bloom right under your nose

Keep your eyes open and soon You shall see 

Small as it may sometimes seem

There is beauty in everything

Now Here He Is At Peace

As I sit back and watch you sleep
In a quiet peaceful slumber
I wish that I could see inside your dreams
your thoughts they make me wonder
The corners of your mouth turn up a bit   
In a small but happy smile
Restful peace wraps you up
like an innocent little child
In this place that you are in
am I with you as well
Is this place a secret If so Ill never tell
Be at peace and sleep well  my love
let your problems disappear
for tonight here in my arms
you and your dreams are safe and secure

Have You Found Your Cloud Yet ?

Have you ever wondered to yourself or out loud 
What your life would be like living on a cloud
Looking down on the earth instead of looking up at the sky 
Use your imagination and take yourself up high
Would you swing on the moon or float around in midair 
Would you be alone or is someone else there 
Would your days be filled with exciting new finds 
Things to stir up and challenge your mind 
We have all been there at one time or another 
And we have all shared the dreams we discover 
I have finally found the thing to show me my cloud 
I am in love and want to scream it out loud 
The answer to all that I have posed on this day 
Is simply Yes it is love and it will show you the way

Time To Live

Life is a blur it goes by you so fast 
One minute you think how can this last 
Smiling and laughing all through the day 
Then the fun's over well what else can I say 
If you live today as  your last one ever 
No regrets no sorrows no pain to endeavor 
Then you can ask how long will I stay 
Will life always be as good as today 
Its time to live,laugh and love so it seems 
Live life to its fullest and dare to dream

Remember How It Used To Be

Wouldn't it be nice to live in a world 
Where poverty doesn't exist and hate no longer ruled 
Where our children could play side by side 
And not have to worry or try to run and hide 

A world where you and I could be friends 
Where all of us can easily make amends 
Go back to a time if you can or are able 
When you seen the world as a story or fable 

When you were small and in school 
Did you care who was green purple or blue 
Did you ever have a problem playing a child's game 
We all jumped rope and played catch the same 

Do you remember your first crush 
And when that person walked by how you would blush 
It's not that hard as you can see 
To make it better for you and for me 

What we all need to do at times it seems 
Is to remember that school yard and remember your dreams 
But most of  all I hope you all can try to  see 
Do your best to remember how it used to be

Trust Yourself Then Trust In Me

Before you go on you must see 
Trust in yourself then trust in me 
Keep your faith in your mind and heart 
Let it guide you forward out of the dark 
To a place where flowers bloom 
And the sun shines year round despite the gloom 
Fate has given us another glance 
To allow us just one more chance 
So put your trust in yourself then in me 
Then we can be together just you and me

For All Who Care For All of Us

For all who Care for all of us 
For all who fight for my right to be free 

For all who fight so I am allowed to be me 

For all who have paid the ultimate price 

when a simple thank you will not suffice 

For all who can see what it's like to have life taken away 

For all who make sure wer'e all here another day 

The courage and bravery that you have shown 

The love in your hearts for your country and home 

And all of you standing ready and willing to fight  

Doing your best to do what is right 

My words may not be much but they are all I have to give 

And that which you are fighting for is my life to live 

So no a simple thank you could never be enough 

But maybe one with a heartfelt kiss and a great big hug 

Fighting for America and what is tried and true 

Fighting for all of us for the Red White and Blue

Life Is An Adventure

When it starts out it goes slow 
But then things happen as you begin to grow 
You change and become someone new 
With each day you see it too 
Your body changes and so does your mind 
Things seem mean, cruel but at times  kind
We are all learning to cope day to day 
The things we are supposed to in our own way 
Some of us laugh no matter what it may be 
Others will fight and yell or scream 
And some of us lean on a friend or two 
We all have our own ways of getting through 
Life is an adventure you will see 
Your life is as exciting as you want  it out to be

This Is Passion

Passion and Romance seem so inviting 

When you find the one it can be truly exciting 

Watch his eyes as he looks in your face 

Do you feel you are lost in your minds own space 

When the first kiss passes your lips 

Do you feel as if reality has  slipped 

I can say that now I  know how this feels 

It is deeper then lust so I know it is real 

Its a feeling like none other around 

A tingling sensation when two hearts come unbound 

You cant think or breathe all you do is stare 

Deep into his mind and soul if you dare

Where have you been hiding you will finally ask 

I finally found you it was no easy task 

But now that I have I will do my best 

To accept what you give me forgoing  all the rest
