Finding Me

A rough road traveled,
but one I must.
Along this road I find the love of my children.
Strong and steady,
fragile and free.
You I see,
a light shining just for me.
You are here I can not believe.
Smiles and laughter from all of you to me.
A journey filled with fright,
just wait and see I have just begun to fight.
For you see there is a future for them,
for you,
and for me together as a family.
So don't give up on me,
just stay with me on this road to finding me.


This I write for my children for I would not be me without them. For my husband 
for giving me strength when I feel I can bear no more. Thank you for loving me so.

            Love Me!

Graduation Day

On this your graduation day, let it be said that pride is

just one of many things felt

This day is set aside to acknowledge all the many

Accomplshments you have achieved

As you walk across the stage, look back and smile.

Look ahead, knowing that whatever path you take,

You are never alone.

For you take a piece of those left behind with you.

So smile, laugh, and cry knowing where ever you go

And whatever you do, we are always with you

A Hertfelt Cry

He raises his  voice louder and louder it goes

I beg him stop, stop ,please stop

He grabs me, he pushes me

The more I beg him to stop, the angrier he becomes

I slap him thinking it will stop him

Oh so wrong I am, his anger deepens

He hits me again and again

The pain  oh so strong I tell only one, his sister

Soon too be mine if  this, this pain  I can endure

I cry often for I love him so

I cry often for I can't  take his pain away

Oh Lord place your heeling hands on the one I love so

 Ease  his pain, give him strength to let go of his past 

Show him your love so he can truly love again

Our Love Song

On this day, the first day of  the rest of our life together I pledge  my eternal love to 
only you
On this day  I gaze into your eyes and see that you are the half  that makes me 
hole
On this day I see that  trough love is really worth waiting for
On this day, the first day of the rest of our life together I pledge my eternal love to 
only you
On this day we will cry for we have found the one we are ment for
On this day we will smile for what is felt is pure joy
On this day, the first day of the rest  of our life together I pledge my eternal love to 
only you
On this day as we dance to our song we here a melody no other can here
On this day and through eternity we will dance as one
On this day, the first day of the rest of our life together I pledge my eternal love to 
only you

My Baby Blue Eyed Angel

Close your eyes my baby blue eyed angel
Close your eyes my baby blue eyed girl
Close your eyes and take a little nap
When you awake my little blue eyed angel
I'll be right here by your side my love

His Name Was Mike

Amazing to me this man would be.
On September 4th 2007 he would be sent to me 
and my children to comfort us.
Sitting along the side of the highway after an auto
accident my children and I were quite shaken.
Countless vehicles passed  us by as if nothing had happened.
Then all of a sudden this pickup truck pulled over.
A some what tall, slender man got out, it was Mike.
So kind and caring he seemed.
Staying with my children and I long after my husband, the officer,
and the tow truck arrived.
Talking to us, reassuring us that things would be fine.
Thank you God for sending my family an angel named  Mike!

One of Gods Little Angels

On this the first anniversary of your birth

Loved ones gather around to share this blessed

                                    day

    Mya Lee Ann you are truly a gift from above

        A gift that fills many hearts and lives

  A ray of sunshine to be shared among many

Thankful we are to God every day for sending us

                        Our little angel

                         Mya Lee Ann

My Dearest Friend

To my dearest friend on this your graduation night.
 Let me say there are no words that can truly express what you mean to me. 
It seems not long ago we just met.
 Now look at you with your cap and gown.
 How proud of you I am this very night.
 Tears of joy I will cry for you as this is just a stepping stone on the road of life for you.

Loving you always on this road shared, yet not. Your friend in Christ

Come Little Children

Little children come today
Little children come and play
Little children one and all
Littl children big and small
Little children come one, come all
See the things I have for you
Toys, games, and lots of other things
Shimmering, shining, glittering too
Come share with me and I'll share with you
Little children come today, sit with me and we'll
play

A Faded Rose

Once there was a strapping young man that gave a beautiful red rose to a 
charming young woman. She loved him so much that she would have given her 
every breath for him.
  One day he came to her and said,"I don't love you anymore. I am so sorry but 
this I say is true. I can no longer live this lie. I say this for it is not fair to you that I 
stay. It will only prolong your pain ad I will not be responsible for that. You are  a 
young and beautiful woman and some day you will find someone that is worthy of 
you and your love, but that one is not I. This you must understand." As he turned 
and walked out the door the tears began to fall like ice dripping off a roof top. She 
cried for days and finally the tears no longer came.
  The day all her loved ones knew would come. She had finally got past the pain. 
She was gone, never to feel the pain of his loss again for she had given her every 
breath just as she vowed to do. When they found her deceased body, she was 
holding a faded red rose from days gone by.
