As I Lay Down to Sleep
As I lay down and pray
I think of all the good things that happened today
Not a day goes by that I try to do my best
I want to please the lord above all the rest
Wonder if this is my last night
Morning comes and I will not see the morning light
Could only hope that I did all the right things
Left my family in order before I see my KING
We never know the place or the time
Before our saviour calls us home, could be the last rhyme
Guess its only human to think about death
But oh well have to get some sleep, take a deep breath

My Cousin's Wedding
Weddings happen here by the dozen
All are fun, especially if a cousin
Get a new outfit, have to look good in the croud
Make the best of the time that is allowed
The bride and groom get set for the night
Alot of time and money go into making sure all goes right
The ceremony is over, the bride and groom set out
The pastor calls them back , marriage license not signed, he shouts (hehe)
The right combination of people, music make a good reception
Where is the beer, head in that direction
Written on the cozie "I'm here for the free beer"
Laughing so much, has us in tears
So many relatives, which kid is for who
Can't remember names, faces will do
The dance floor is open, get out there and shake your booty
Go ahead, get a little fruity
Uncle Johnny does the alligator on the dance floor
Down on the floor, joined by more
It doesn't stop there, the bride leads the pirogue
Like a train behind her, a long line unfolds
Family, friends, togetherness like no other
Before nights end, you will know many others

Debra Falgout Poem
Circle of Life
A baby is born, there is so much happiness
A day to rejoice, so much joyfullness
A tear is shed for receiving this blessedness
Thank you lord for a gift of lovelines
There is a day of sorrow and pain
The last breath of a loved one passed on again
A tear is shed falling down like rain
Finding comfort in the afterlife, hope remains
A father, a mother, brother and sister
Generations lived on from one to another
I am in you and you in me
Forever bonded till eternity
Life is a gift not to be taken for granted
Sow love, hugs, and kisses, firmly planted
A circle of unity we are joined as one
The beginning, the end, a new life has begun

Naked As A Chicken
Clock on wall, Tic Tock Tic Tock
Excitement in the air
Where is my makeup
Giggling, Laughing, Who are you
Music Loud, Dancing, Swaying
Just want a good beer buzz
Ouch! Loud alarm goes off
Bed Soft, wrapped in blanket
Where are my clothes

Debra Falgout Poem
No farting allowed
Let me see
Will I come out in tries one, two or three
She sits on the bowl, straining, oh lord
I won't come out, its so hard
Constipation, its a mess
Come out, come out, I won't settle for less
Finally feeling the poop, I'm almost out
Ha Ha tricked you, a fart, she shouts
Ok, ok, i will settle your stress
Ploop in the bowl, time to swim I guess

Home Is Where The Heart Is
Oh my goodness
"Lets Party, Family Reunion"
Family of 10
Its all good, we stay close knit
Look forward to cookouts
Mardi Gras here is a big hit
Our seafood is the best, fresh from the bayou
My moms the best cook
Shrimp boulettes, jambalaya, just to name a few
Born on the bayou, its in my blood
Could never leave here
Louisiana is where I spent my girlhood

Debra Falgout Poem
My Endless Love
We were kids when we first met
A love that we would never forget
We knew our love would grow as time went by
Time was on our side, the limit was the sky
The love we share so strong and free
God has given this gift to me
My true love stands by my side
Together we stand, no one can divide
So much love we had to share
Two daughters greated by us, nothing compares
Still oh, how this loves grows
My heart overwhelmes, only he knows
Our children look at us and desire this same love
Marriage and children, given from above
So the lord answers, and gives my daughters these gifts
Husband and grandchildren , my heart uplifts
Thirty-one years later, our love is like gold
We see each other grow as we grow old
My endless love, my husband, my friend
The Lord will keep us together until the end
The end meaning everything past this life
You will forever be my husband and I your wife

Debra Falgout Poem
Space
A woman knows when she needs her space
Now and then, she has to embrace
The space where the mind has to go
The place where your spirit can just flow
Could be a night to put on them dancing shoes
Dance the night away, let it all loose
Could be a night for some peaceful escape
Relax to your own personal dreamscape
Whatever your space, feel the ease
Good for the soul, tension release

Autumn Air
Dry and cool all in one
Morning freshness, felt like none
Gives me a boost, ready for the day
The autumn air, come out and play
So here I go, take me away
Take it all in before you stray

Debra Falgout Poem
Letting Your Hair Down
Looking to sit back and enjoy the day
Aiming for the patio table, our little get away
Kick off the shoes and sit with the family
Share todays news and laughing happily
And you know we have to have that ice cold beer
Best way to chill out over here
The neighbors wave and sometimes sit to chat
Our home is like a big welcome mat
Before you know it, here comes out the barbecue pit
The more the better, I must admit
Home is where you can just relax and do nothing
Its when best memories are made and lots of good loving
Doesn't cost nothing to just enjoy and rest
This is when we are the happiest
Let your hair down and take a little time
Do this often and learn to unwind
