Poem I wrote while in Florida Disney World


(Christ on Bended Knees)


Pardoned

On Vacation three weeks We were,
Still work Needed to be Done-
Mom on the computer, Dad hurried Her…
Grandma and the Kids just along for Fun.

Bills can’t Wait, She was the Dutiful one,
And most the Morning it did Take-
Dad impatient, saying hurry Hon…
Agitated exasperated Wife, HE did Make.

Oh, Grandma sure did see it Coming,
Foolish Son, He might just ruin the day-
Wife beaten down, too late for Calming…
Distraught, She left, bills HE can Pay!

Hurt and offended, She finally Withdrew,
Accepting of his Folly, asked Her Pardon-
Grandma waited and waited, She knew…
He’d gone too far, Repent now Son!

Humiliated and Embarrassed She might be,
How would He Mend and Comfort,
Senseless, Would forgiveness set Him free…
Undertanding, Lovingly, He shows support.

Finally, with Humor, He Came,
She Serene, Graceful and at Ease-
Esteemed-Glowing with Love, No Shame…
As He followed Her, On Bended Knees!

AWAKE

Awake ‘tis Morn-
Romance in the Air…
Serene still Sleepy,
Entwined we Share.

Our Patio Chairs-
We rock and rock…
Listening to birds,
Talk, Talk, Talk.

Life simpler Now-
Time to Reflect…
Love is Effortless,
Our Spirits Connect.

This Our Final Chapter,
Gray is in our Hair…
Wouldn’t Change a Thing,
Great Memories we Share.

My Friendly Heron at Province

HERON AT PROVINCE


Heart is Heavy,
So Often in Life-
In Nature We See...
Peace from all Strife.


Heron has Hope,
He Sits Majestically-
Humans Trying to Cope...
God Sets Us Free!

NEW YEARS WITH STARKEYS 2009









IN CORBAN'S EYES

In Corban’s Eyes

They came from Texas
What a mix that six…
Four Girls and Two Boys,
New Years came to visit Us!

When Corban came in-
He commented to Makayla…
Grandpa and Grandma’s House is
Beautiful-You know that feelin?

Kelsie made friends with Pearl…
Our shy little Chihuahua ,
Emma was a princess-
Dressed in gowns to Twirl.

Aden pulled over our tree,
Christmas was over anyway-
Sadie just ate and ate and ate…
Makayla coming back you see!

For when they turn Nine,
On an airplane they fly…
For one on one time,
With Us they will Shine!

FOR A 3 AND 1/2 YEAR OLD BOY)
