Then There Were None

swirling ~ twirling
faster ~ faster
time promenades

No Love Greater Then God Love

to know its so
as you go
thur life you'll see the light
that am right
he the one to think of
NO LOVE GREATER 
THAN GODS LOVE

Confess Then Bless!

To each sin I must confess
My mind is quite a jumbled mess!
Ones life can then become depressed
But through it all - somehow - I'm blessed!
