“Try to live a simple life. It is often in the simplest of things where we find the greatest happiness.”

PREVIEW 

A LITTLE CLOUD

A little tear, a little crying,

For not all of life is smiling;

A little cloud, a little rain,

though the sun is always shining.

A little pain, a little aching,

So our hearts can keep on growing;

A little cross to see the right,

A little night before the light!

Will You Still Love Me Even If I’m Not Perfect?

Will you still love me even if I’m not perfect? Will you still love me even if I’m not the kind of person you wished I were? Will you still look into my eyes with warmth even if you saw my shadows? Will you still hold my hand even if you knew there will be times I’d let you down?

For though I yearn to take care of you as I should, though I desire to love you with a love that never falters and fades, my knees tremble this very moment that you hold me in your arms.

Poem of one grieving…

where would you go
that i cannot follow?
for how long must i wait
until we meet again?
what would i do
in times that i miss you?
where would i go
in times when i long to see you again?
how must i spend
the nights without you?
how do i bear
each morning that you’re not there?
shall i ever smile again?
will i ever laugh again?
will i ever face the world again
knowing that im not alone?
why must you leave me?
why must i cry these tears
when you’re not here
to wipe them all away?
why must i suffer
the empty days without my beloved?
why must i dream
without you by my side?
the days shall never be the same again
i will never be the same again
without you
the life of my soul,
the joy of my heart,
the light in my eyes,
the hope of my dreams,
the comfort of my lonely nights,
without you my beloved,
i grieve and cry,
i grope and stumble in the dark,
i weep with all my soul
i desire with all my heart
i let go of all of me that you took away with you
i keep all of you that is in me,
and will always remain in me
wherever i may go
i wait and pray and hope
i will look forward to each brand new day
thankful for all that i’ve had and will always have
thankful for the sun that shines again
believing and hanging on
believing that life will go on
it can’t help but go on
it shall go on
and in so going
there really is no end
only mornings and evenings
and life that never ever ends.

MEANWHILE

The rain is pouring

The sky is dark

There’ll be no hills to climb today

There’ll be no seas to cross

But I’ll sip my coffee

and I will be cozy

and enjoy the cool wind

blowing by

meanwhile.

The land is plowed

The seeds are planted

Yet harvest time has not arrived

But I’ll watch the sunset

and my fields of gold

and I’ll take

a sweet little nap

meanwhile.

Yea for those who wait

for their tomorrows

let none then waste

of their todays

For all is well

and all is fine

for those who pray

and smile

meanwhile

At the End of the Day

At the end of the day,
after all the work is done;
At the end of the day,
as we watch the setting sun;

After all the trials,
and after all the pain;
After all the struggles,
to make it through the day;

I thank God for peace and rest,
and for little smiles from you;
I thank God for rising stars,
and for little hugs from you;

For there is no blessing,
such as this I found so true:
It’s such a pleasure just walking home
at the end of the day with you!

FRIEND

I may not always be by your side,
but my prayers will be with you.
I may not always help you,
but deep inside you know I want to.
I may not always do what you like,
but I will do the best I can.
I may not always understand,
but we can still walk hand in hand.
I may not be the perfect friend,
I may not be the best out there,
but in spite and despite all these,
you can be sure somebody cares!
