To ask about my fellow poets who I hardly know.

We didn't dress...

SNOW,SNOW,SNOW"

I'm stuck in the house again.
Blowing snow that freezes skin.

Burning wood to stay warm.
Covered with snow in the next morn.

The storm of the century will never been the same.

Everything is white and covered with snow.
When we get out...

My mother was my teacher she gave me her all.
So when I had troubles she's the one I'd call.

If I needed her help she was always there.
To help me through life and teach me to share.

I was the middle child four girls and three boys.
We...

They called my grandpa cowboy Pat.

HEY HANDSOME
JP 42
The man I love is holding me tight.
His soft touch to me feels so right.
His good looks caught my eye.
Saw him and said my-oh-my.
He'll be mine before the end of the night.

In the water is the mirrored image I see.
 The true beauty is a reflection of me.
 Thoughts that run through my mind are my beliefs that I cannot find. 
 Like the flowers that float in the water are my memories of Chloe my...

Mannings and Favre are the cream of the crop

Afraid to miss a single great play
Is this how a lady should spend her Sunday?

Purple and gold are winning this year

Look like dem Saints gonna 'Brees'...

Our little church is filled with the rich and poor.
We feel no one's better as you come through these doors.
Were a small church but we do our best.
Putting our congregation to the test.
The time has come for you to be a winner.
Give your life to...

THE LONG ROAD HOME

Our home in the country sit's deep in a valley.
Once a month our small town has a home town rally.

Country living and country folk is what we live for.
We all are willing to lend a hand or to open a door.

Tall trees...

My favorite things are to smell the fresh air in the spring.
To watch the flowers grow to hear a bird sing.

My favorite things are to have a family to love.
The color blue the beautiful sky above.

My favorite things are fried chicken and chocolate ice cream.

The Oklahoma Sooners are my favorite team.
  There school colors are crimson and cream.

  They can run a ball and score real high.
    Make the other team fumble and cry.
