I wish I were a birthday cake on this special day
So I could say how glad I am You have passed my way
It seems awhile since You and I have been such good friends
I’m praying this continues and perhaps never ends !
EVERLASTING ( 2016 ) 2016/07/18
The raindrops fall upon the sill
The clouds are now at overfill
And moving in their passive way
The rains await another day.
The sky is full of sweet surprise
Beginning with each new sunrise
The stars all twinkle through the night
Some to be hidden from our sight.
The wind that powers every breeze
Silent ripples midst natures frieze
While sounds of life are vibrant still
They carry on and always will !
“THE EARTH ABIDETH FOREVER”
VANISHED ( 2014 ) 2014/12/04
No flower sweet by any name
Shall diminish the roses’ fame
Her nest of petals circled round
Wherein the heart of love is found.
While velvet touch upon the cheeks
Doth wilt away when silence speaks
These precious words that do not last
Are gone as blooms must fade and pass,
The joy of early rosebuds’s blush
Will vanish with our breath’s last rush !
