A Child Is a Blossoming Flower

A child is a flower blossoming from a bud
They need to be nurtured, and given plenty love.
They need food and shelter to sustain
They need comfort from their pain when
It rains.
They need words of encouragement every day
They need support and guidance along the way.
They need hugs, and kisses, and discipline too
They are a special gift, I thought you knew?
Just like a flower needs water, and sun
So do our precious dear little ones.

A Kind Word Can Make a Difference

A kind word spoken each day
can help the lost find their way
back to the fold of love and peace
back to the joy that God unleashed.
A kind word spoken once or twice
can make the difference in one's life
It can guide them through their troubled times
It can heal their wounds and confused mind.
A kind word spoken to those whom are sad
can change their outlook and make them glad
It can turn their frown into a smile
It can help them through any trial.
A kind word spoken from the heart
can help one make a brand new start
It can help them see things more clearly
It will help them believe God loves them dearly.
A kind word is sent from me to you
This is what God wants us to do.

It Is a Test

When you are feeling down and low
it appears there is nowhere to go
do not worry or fret, you are just going
through a test.
When your dark clouds arise, and it
appears no one is by your side, do not 
give up or give in; remember this is a
test, you can win. Jesus is your friend.
He is a friend who is always there, and 
He is a friend that really cares.
When your children stress you out, and
you just want to holler, scream. In addition, shout; 
do not you have not one single doubt, it is 
just a test, you will make it no doubt.
Keep your chin and head up high
God is there, he will be your guide.
Remember this is just a test
Trust in God he will do the rest.

A Word of Thanks To Mom

Thanks mom for all you've done
Thanks for my sibling we still have fun
Thanks to all who shared their load
In helping get me down this rough bumpy road.

Mom, I feel there were times you want to 
quit; but God made you special,that's why
you didn't... 
When dad got sick we didn't know what to 
do; You call on God, and he brought us 
on through.

Charish your MOM those of you who still
can, She'll always there to give you a hand
you'll stand tall, and strong in all you do....
a word of thanks to MOM is said so few.

Thanks be to god for a MOM like mine
They're so hard to find in these days and time.
MOM I LOVE YOU

Little Ones See and Hear All

Our dear little ones, so meek and humble,
Their world around them, they watch crumble.
They only see and hear
Wrestle mania rumble.

The things they see and hear each day,
Dark cloud and skies full of grey.

There's killing and robbing in every neighborhood.
Their little minds begin wonder 
How to stop it; I sure wish I could.

Be careful what we do and say,
Stand tall, and for 
Goodness' sake, don't take a hard fall, 
For our little ones see and hear all.

The Man I Love

The man I love is dear to me
He keeps his arms rapped around me; 
He never leaves me all alone, He is
always with me when I roam.
The man I love love is kind and true
He makes me happy, when Imp blue. He
always there to comfort you, the man
I love is true.
I guess your mind is wondering why
I have this man in my life. We can 
share him if you would like, this man is
not the jealous type.
He is there for everyone to share
you can cast your burdens there.
He will be your sword, strength and shield, 
He will give you peace, and peace be still.
Therefore, if you are lonely, and full of fright
he will be your comforter both day and 
night. His name is JESUS; he is the one
whom gave his only begotten son.
