My Guitar Just Called Out Your Name

My guitar just called out your name,
I wasn’t even thinking of you.
I went to pick it up, brushed the guitar strings…..
And my guitar just called out your name.
 
Maybe I’m going insane,
But I even heard your name in the rain,
I've heard it on the wind, and I heard it once again,
When my guitar just called out your name.
 
I know that I will never get over you,
I still can’t believe that were through.
Memories remain, and I sure felt the pain,
When my guitar just called out your name.
 
I miss you so much that I could die,
But life goes on so everyday I try
to live my life without you but I’ll never be the same
and my guitar just called out your name.
 
Yes my guitar just called out your name,
I wasn’t even thinking of you.
I went to pick it up, brushed the guitar strings..........
And my guitar just called out your name........

(Most female names are two syllables so pluck the
Open B string followed by the open G string
for the finish of the song)

The Heart

What is this thing we call a HEART? We spend our entire lives talking about it. When a child is born and you gaze upon its beauty you say, Be still my HEART, The first thing the nurse does with this bundle of joy is place the baby over your HEART. You take the baby home and the comments from family and frijends are very HEART warming. You look at your husband the man who won your HEART in the first place and you remember the day he gave you his HEART, and you gave him your HEART right back. 

Your first child is a beautiful baby girl and you know she has won your HEART. You nurture her and watch her grow until she grows into a beautiful teenage girl, and you know she will come home one day and tell you she gave her HEART to some young man and you place your hand over your HEART and hope she won't be HEART broken. Yes there is another side to this HEART thing they are not all the same. 
A HEART can be full of love but it can also be a HEART filled with hate. You can have a joyful HEART or a HEART filled with sadness, but you can also be HEART broken. You can have a good HEART, or be HEART less. You can have a warm HEART or a cold HEART or HEART disease.
You can have a happy HEART, or a sad HEART.  People can take your HEART, steal your HEART. Give you a HEART ache or a HEART burn. You can have a song in your HEART. 
Or sit in HEART felt silence. You can give your HEART to someone, or someone can take your HEART away.  Having said all of this your amazing HEART just keeps on beating. If your HEART hurts because somebody broke your HEART, the only one who can fix it is the person who broke your HEART in the first place. Of course there are other ways to heal your HEART. Close friends, family, your children, children in general will always warm your HEART. 
Everybody is given a HEART. 
You have to learn how to protect your HEART.  Funny even when your HEART is broken into a million pieces you can still love the person who broke it with whatever pieces of your HEART remains. 
I could continue talking about the HEART, it is such an amazing organ of our body. It pumps life's blood through our veins which lets us know that with all we put our HEART through it still is there doing what a HEART does best. 
it loves us and let's us love others with all our HEART and soul. Many things have been written about the HEART,
I hope this story has warmed your HEART, or at least made you smile. Please remember to warm your HEART but not your head. Listen to your HEART, Follow your HEART.  
Open your HEART, Trust your HEART, and when you love someone be sure you are always in way over your HEART.
Last but certainly not least, make sure you give your 
HEART to the Lord.

The Lady

So you want to get to know me,
you want me in your life.
Your friends have said that I'd be good for you,

But can you trust their judgement?
do you think they know me well?
Do they know that I will make demands of you?

You see I'm quite demanding, 
I'll use up all your time.
I'll make you spend it with me day and night.

And when you want to leave,
I'll be tugging at your sleeve,
And you know that I will make you stay the night.

Do you know that I'm expensive?
Do you think you can afford me?
I'm not as cheap as ladies in your past.

But I always will be there,
when you have the time to spare
and your love for me will last, and last, and last.

So come and spend an evening,
See how much you love me.
In the morning I can promise you'll be back.

I never will divorce you, 
I'll never let you go, 
I know you'll never ever be the same.

You'll never want to leave me.
You just have to believe me.
You see this ladies name is ....................
  
        (Crack Cocaine)

Love

LOVE"

Love is like a tickle
That starts within your heart. 
It has a need to move along
To someone else's heart. 
So don't be afraid to let it go,
It's something it has to do,
and as soon as it finds another heart.
It comes right back to you.

I Love Words

I love "WORDS" I love the way "WORDS" can change a mood, make you smile, make you laugh, and we all know "WORDS" can make you cry. What would this world be without "WORDS"? There would be no learning, there would be no language, you would not even have a name. That is why parents are so joyous when a child speaks their first "WORDS" because that is where the journey begins. 

Then school and you wouldn't go far without "WORDS" .
No history, no geography, no spelling, no stories and of course no teachers for they are the people who teach us to use "WORDS". We start slowly sometimes just learning the "WORDS"  to identify yourself (Your Name)

"WORDS"  exchanged with each other allow us to form our first friendships. 
How would we ever communicate if not for "WORDS". Soon you learn enough "WORDS" that you are on your own and completely responsible for the "WORDS" you use. You can choose "WORDS"  of kindness that you can exchange with friends and family or you can choose "WORDS" of anger 
that will hurt, offend, or even destroy the people around you. 

The "WORDS"  you choose will always be your choice. Nobody can choose your "WORDS" for you. So choose your "WORDS" wisely. Then there will be a time in your life when you realize it's time for you to choose words of love, and find someone who wants to share their "WORDS" of love with you. 

Then comes comes "WORDS" of marriage and the "WORDS" I love you, and I do. Then you learn "WORDS" that allow you to earn a living, buy a home, own a car, and raise a family. Soon you will be passing the torch to your newborn as you try to teach them their first "WORDS." Then as your children grow and move forward learning their own new "WORDS" you and your significant other move ahead and you begin to share "WORDS of Wisdom.
" You watch your children grow as you teach them the "WORDS" of God. 

So the final "WORDS" I leave you with is choose your "WORDS" carefully. Select only "WORDS" of kindness, happiness, love, and caring. "WORDS" are the foundation for your life. Don't choose "WORDS" that will give you a weak foundation, choose "WORDS" to strengthen your life. 

Yes I love "WORDS" they control every aspect of our lives from beginning to the end.  The journey will be as good or as bad as your choice of "WORDS." 

In the beginning was the "word." and the "WORD" was with God and the "WORD" was God.

Always choose "WORDS" that are sweet and tender, 
you never know when you may have to eat them. 

In closing I would like to say when people ask me what Do you do?
I tell them I am a "WORD" artist, I paint pictures with "WORDS."

My Best Friend

Let the flags all stop their waving,
Let the traffic lights turn red.
I was informed this morning,
That my best friend was dead. 

Let all the world be still,
Stop the sands of time.
Stop the presses, stop the show,
This man was a friend of mine. 

Let there be no laughter,
Not even to hide a tear.
You have taken my greatest treasure,
and decided to leave me here.

Life now has no meaning,
there's no project I want to start.
Stop all the things that I once loved,
then stop my beating heart.

The Autopsy

"The Autopsy"
They wheeled his body into the room. 
Covered with a clean white sheet.
The doctors were methodical, 
yet at the same time quite discreet. 
They studied it in sections, one area at a time.
and although their search was thorough, 
there were a few things they could not find.
They couldn't find the memory of the one he loved so dear,
and they couldn't find the passion that he felt when she was near.
They couldn't find his pride, or the bounce within his step.
Though the smile he had when he saw her hasn't left him yet.
And they couldn't find the pleasure that he felt year after year.
And if they searched his entire body they would never find it there.
Yes the body was being studied to try and find a clue.
Why his life had ended early, why his life on earth was through.
The doctors with all their training didn't know where to start.
For they couldn't have known she left him .........
and he died from a broken heart.

The Search For Happiness

What has happened to happiness?
I can’t find it anywhere.
I used to see it on my street,
But it seems to have disappeared.
 
I’ve looked for it at my place of work,
It doesn’t seem to be there.
It isn’t in my neighborhood,
I can’t find it anywhere.
 
So I asked my friends to look for it,
And tell me when they find it.
One of them got tired of looking,
So I told him never mind it.
 
He said that he’d been looking for it,
Year, after year, after year.
To make him keep on searching,
Simply wasn’t fair.
 
I was running out of patience,
This search was driving me wild.
I was just about to give it up,
When I spoke to a little child.
 
Happiness was all around,
With a smile from ear to ear.
Nothing but happiness could be found.
No sign of worry or fear.
 
So take a hint from this little child,
And your search will come to an end.
Love this life just the way it is,
And happiness will come from within.

 Note:

Happiness is something you can only give yourself. 
Don't expect others to give it to you. 
You need to start small like a child 
find simple things around you. A flower, clouds,
Rain, birds and so on. Once you are grateful 
for the simple things around you you will notice 
many other wonderful things that are happening in your life.
Then you will also find happiness all around you.
