To a Mother

a mothers gentle touch
calms hurt and fear 
a mothers loving hands 
wipes away the tears
a mother is always there
to lend a helping hand 
she is a source of strengh
to help us better stand
when all else has failed
and no one seems to care
you can depend on mother 
for she will always be there

A Hug To Say I Love You

A hug to say I need you
A hug to say I care
When the nights are cold and lonely.

I promise i'll be there,
Though the miles they separate us
My love for you still grows..
Though I can't be there to hold you,
You're always in my heart.

Just close your eyes a moment,
Just listen carefully...
You'll hear my voice calling,
In the whisper of the brezze
You'll know that I am with you.

As each new sunrise comes,
You'll know how much I love you.
As the moon softly sheds her light
As you lay there sweetly sleeping.

Feel the touch of my loving hands,
Ahug to say I love you..
Ti'll we're together again.

To My Husband,My Life,My Eternal Valentine

This is to thank you for being by my side,
For comforting and caring when I was
all confused inside.

This is for the phone calls you make everyday,
Just to tell me " I love you" every minute 
of the day.

The way you take my hand in yours
For all the world to see,
That this is the woman,
Who is most special to me.
You always seem to know 
When I need a hug, kiss or smile...
You never cease to amaze me
When you say "I'm here..let's talk for a while."

In decades past we've had our share
of ups and downs and problems galore,
But you are the one who remained at my side,
Never thinking of walking out the door.

Iadore the way youtell me, 
"you are my forever best friend"
Ilove the way I believe in you..
Thank you for listening as I ramble on..
When things become rather tough.

We are in the best years of our lives
Almost one year on our journey together,
Iwant to grow old with you..And you with me.
Iwant to love you "forever"..

My Best Friend, My Sister

Your my best friend and my sister,
there is nothing better than your love.

We been throught thick and thin,
We've had our ups and downs.
You know exacty what to say and
what I am thinking of.

And everytime I need you in my,
time of need your were there
no questions asked.
When you go astray, I will lead
you down the right path.
Your my best friend when I need an ear,
and need someone to talk to.
And also my sister when I need
a shoulder to cry on when I am feeling blue.

Our love will never die
There is no better friend,
Than a sister.
And there is no better,
sister than you.
                 Love You Sis

A Gentle Touch

A gentle brush of his fingers,
sending shiver down my spine.
In the love that equal mine.

He greets me with a smile,
and leaves me with a kiss.
If he were to ever leave me,
i couldn't imagine what i'd miss.

Or maybe it's his touch,
or the way he makes me feel.
But whatever it is,
I'm head over heels.

My Little Angels

My five little angels,
Every time I look in your eyes
I see that spark of hope.

When I see you smile and hear you,
laugh it makes me think you are so special
to be in my life.
When I am around my little angels,
It makes it everything worth wild.

I makes me know for sure that I would do ,
anything to keep my little angels around me.

I love my little angels,
I would not give them up for the world.
They make my life worth living.

I woludn't change a thing,
My little angels are precious to me
I love my little angels.

My White Kight

You are my kight in shining armor
My twinkle in the sky
You are my passage from the darkness,
You always light my sky 

You don't see what you mean to me
Althought it's very clear 
Your everything I ever dreamed
Ever hope or even wished.

You are my knight in shining armor
Your my whisper in the dark
The man who says he loves me
With all his heart

Don't ever let the darkness
Fill your days or nights
I am always here beside you
Right where I belong

I will walk with you hand and hand
To guide you throught the darkest times
To show you where I am

You are my best friend
My lover and My man
Please always be here with me my love
My white knight ,My husband.

Nearness

the lord is never nearer than when he seems to be away 
in times when we are tempted and apt to go astray
in times of hurt and sadnessheis right there by our side 
with his love surrounds us when we in him abide
when problems loom above us  too big for us to bear 
we " turn them over to jesus"who resuces from despair
we can know his presence trust his word that he is near 
that to him we are precious he will protect us from all fear
we must trust him in our weakness lean on him from day to day 
 for he is never nearer than when he seems to be away

Love To My Husband

I am drawn to you like
The stars to the midnight skies,
The earth to th burning sun..
Water to thirsting flowers.

I am comfortable with you like
An old pair of boots,
A faded pair of jeans,
My favorite sweater and scarf.

I am at peace with you like
Sitting in a boat in the middle of a lake,
Taking a walk in the wide open spaces in the country,
Listening to rain drops fall in the dark of night.


I am alive with you like,
The laughter that is uncontrollable..
The heart that gose "thump"  "thump" "thump"
Running throught wildflowers in the wilderness.

Every ounce of my being..
Mind, body and soul are riveted by you,
I am alive with you, free with you,
Comfortabel with you.
I Love You..

Growing Old

I want to be the oneyou turn to
in your time of need,

I want to be the one you 
can't live without,

You are the one I want,
The one I turn to in my every
moment of life,

The one I could nenver be without,
The one I need more than anything,
The one that I love more than anyone,
The one who holds the key to my heart,
The one that owns my heart,
I can't wait to be beside you,
Being beside you for the rest of
my life,

I can't wait to spend the rest of
my life with you,
Growing old with you would be a 
dream come true.
