Elenore Sprague Poem
The snow fell down.
It covered the ground,
in a blanket of white.
What a beautiful sight.
Children grinned from ear to ear.
As they saw the heavenly snow appear.
There were thoughts of playing in the snow.
Building a snowman, with eyes of coal.
The snow is enjoyed by young and old.
Everyone bundles up for the cold.
The sleds come out.
The children shout.
"I love the snow, I love the snow."
It's fun to watch the families,
having fun with their kiddies.
Have you ever made an angel in the snow?
Then watch it disappear when the wind did blow.
Were you ever in a snowball fight
that lasted all day until the night?
There is sking and ice skating to name a few,
of the winter sports people like to do.
There are hazards too.
When roads are bad.
Accidents, many or few ,
could be had.
Enjoy the snow and have some fun.
Don't drive your car, like a Son of a Gun.
Drive careful and take your time.
You'll reach your destination, in due time.
The snow comes falling down
In every country, city, and town.
It won't last forever. It'll melt away.
The sun will come out, and shine all day.
Go out and enjoy it while you can.
Go out and make a big snowman.

Elenore Sprague Poem
EXTRA TIME
Oh! How I wonder what a person would say,
Should the Lord decide to take that person away.
Would he or she say “I really don’t want to go I bet,
There is someone else you can get?”
I have so much money I haven’t spent.
No matter where I go I’m not content.
What’s that Lord? Have I helped anyone?
Lord no one asked, no one under the sun.
Lord if you will grant me some extra time,
I’ll share my love and give away every dime.
Dear Lord if you will listen to my prayer
I’ll show you how much I really do care.
With your help Lord, I’ll be able to repair,
All the heartache and misery, I caused others to bear.
Lord if you grant me some extra time
I will share your love along with mine.
Dear Lord, if you don’t grant me some extra time,
To share our love and give away every dime,
Then grant me forgiveness for all the wrong I have done.
Yes Lord, forgiveness from you and Jesus your Son.
By receiving your forgiveness before I die,
I know we will meet somewhere above the sky.
I’ll ask St. Peter to let me pass through the gate,
As I’ve an appointment with you and I can’t be late.
I will meet with you Lord and try to explain
How your forgiveness helped to ease my pain.
I pray that you will accept my deepest apology,
I pray I will live with you for eternity.

Elenore Sprague Poem
I believe we are created by the Lord.
From the earth the Lord created man.
From this man He removed a rib.
From this rib He created a woman.
For this reason, I do believe,
when a man takes on a wife,
they two become as one,
for the rest of their life.
I also do believe,
the good Lord up above,
sent down to us his Son,
and His everlasting love.
I believe the Son, was born of a virgin.
While on earth He taught men to pray.
He gave up His life, for us, on the cross.
To free us, from sin, what a price to pay.
I believe in the resurrection.
I believe Jesus will come again.
You will see Him coming in the clouds.
When? Only God the Father knows when.
