Postscript

You will notice four posts per month,
As I am saving many verse to add into
My future book, along with a few photos
From my past and present.

Someday down the road the book will be
Yours and mine to treasure and I hope
To distribute it to nations in every corner
Of this wonderful and magnificent world.

Thinking about the title will be a difficult
One; as I want it to be perfect!

Yours truly,

Head-On

Something occurred today that
Made me very distraught and sad.
Many tears flowed down my face.

Sometimes life throws you one like a
Head-on collision---that you don’t know
Whether you’ll survive it or not.

My First Year at Blogging

I hope that I have touched your heart
I hope that I have brightened your life
I hope that I have given you direction
I hope that I have given you happiness
I hope that I have opened your future
I hope that I have given you  ideas
I hope that I have helped in any way
I hope that I have counseled you
I hope that I have shown you kindness
I hope that I have given you faith
I hope that I have lifted your pain
I hope that I have shown you courage
I hope that I have lifted your spirits
I hope that I have encouraged your day
I hope that I have defined real love
I hope that I have reached out to you
I hope that I have voiced your concerns
I hope that I have delivered a message
I hope that I have connected with you
I hope that I have strengthened you

A Cup of Coffee or Tea?

It sure is chilly this morning—
What would you like to drink?
I want to share that cup with you!

We can talk about the weather
Or what’s happening in the news.
How is your career going for you?
Or how is your family doing?

We can talk about the schools
Or what’s happening to youth.
How is your health been for you?
Or how is life treating you?

It sure was a pleasant morning--
What would you have thought?
I’m glad to share that cup with you!

A New Year, 2012

Off to begin another new year
We will be happy, my dear!
Going full speed, without fear
To witness history soon near.

Chances are we’ll have to hear
Or see some news that brings a tear.
But courage and strength will sear
Any difficulty that happens to appear.

What is really important to our ear
If we had heard it from our peer-
Is that no matter what is in the gear,
We made it the best of any one year!
