We’ll miss you love, when you have gone
And seek God’s strength to carry on
Twill be so strange as in this case
We’ll ne’er again meet face to face.
Nor shall we ever ” tete a tete ”
As soon we may tend to forget
How much we pray for one last kiss
Too late we all have been remiss !
Sometimes I dream ’bout long ago
And all the joys we used to know,
I miss that world so very much
Too sad we couldn’t keep in touch.
Seems now as though I’m in the past
Perhaps one that’s surviving last
Oh how I wish that I might spend
A day or two among my friends.
Well I’m no fool, that is a fact
We cannot bring the old times back
And need to bargain for much less,
Let’s settle for a huge God bless !
Oh foul device and evil intent
Of those whose motive to harm was meant
With all of our tears that have been spent
God with purpose our lives reinvent !
My heart got lost so long ago
How that occured I cannot know
It was that war, I often think
That took our values to the brink
The young, the old, the in-between
Not one of us escaped the scene
It hollowed out each living thing
And in our lives did chaos bring
We took the test and some did win
Although too many were done in
And there were those, ones that I saw
Who ne’er returned forever more
Oh Lord I wish I could forget,
I haven’t mastered that trick yet !

*( MEMORIES OF WORLD WAR II )
Why can’t I remember or recall
All those precious times when I was small
When I sat upon my daddy’s knee
As he held me tight and talked to me ?
These memories are melting away
Just like my life, drip by drip each day
Oh what I’d give to capture it all
Sweet memories from when I was small !
The air is sweet with salted breath
It rises from the ocean’s depth
The summer storms have blown away
And left us this vacation day
The wind has slipt among the trees
Suggesting life is well at ease.
Some days are perfect, some are not
Some days remembered, some forgot
I hope one day to chance recall
That moment summer morphed to fall !
We live in dark and dangerous days
Beware of those preaching foreign ways
Remain steadfast to God’s own commands
Avoid the teaching of new demands.
The day expected is soon to come
Keep hold of your faith with its wisdom
God speaks to us and we must adhere
For His judgement day is too soon near !
