LIFE

The blooming of the flowers,
The growing of the trees.
The color changing, in the grass,
The feeling, of, the gentle breeze.

A bird that's breaking through an egg.
A child, that's being born.
The tide, coming in at night.
And night, turning into morn.

People changing, from day to day,
And there's not always love, but strife.
I ask myself, "How can this be?"
Then I realize, that this is life.

Life puts color in this world
And all the beauty, that i see.
So I must enjoy it , to the fullness,
Before death, takes it all from me.

I know, that on the other side.
There's more beauty, than can compare.
But, I want to love, lifes beauty here,
Before I can cross over there.

 

 

HI MOMMA

Well, I did it again momma,
I tried to call you today.
I tried to call you twice yesterday,
with just my usual, to say.
Although we just called, and shot the breeze,
it meant a lot to me.
We really grew, to be such friends,
and that's the way, it was meant to be.
In the hospital, you said, you wanted
us to run around in the sun.
Well momma, we're going to do just that
when God's work with me is done.
It meant so very much to me,
when you said, "I love you".
And when you said, you loved the Lord,
and you were ready, for him too.
I know your with Him now,
beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Now i can sing, and praise the Lord,
and raise my hands and shout.
I pray that, when my time comes,
if I too, must go by grave.
That at my bedside, I will see,
my loved ones, to me , He gave.
Momma to have been able to hold your hand,
till your last breath, you drew.
Was an answer, from the Lord,
for my heart, He really knew.
Just remember our memories, will always
be with me, every day.
No one can ever take our past year,
or destroy it, in any way.
As a daughter and a mother,
it wasn't as it should be.
But we got to be such good friends,
and God's love was there to see.

Spring Is In The Air

When the flowers, are all in bloom,
You know, spring is in the air.
You get the fishing poles all ready
And hope, your fishing day's are fair.
You might even pack your suitcase,
To go somewhere, afar.
You may take a train, or a plane,
or even, take a car.
Then, summer's just around the corner.
And there's so many things to do.
Going to fairs, and to museums,
And visit, all your loved ones too.
In all the thing's you wanted to do,
You never even, made a dent.
And, it's really getting colder,
You wonder, where the nice day's went.
The farmer's finishing, in their fields,
You know, that it is fall.
The leaves, they all start turning,
And soon, there's none at all.
Then the winter month's, bring in the air,
That is cold, with lots's of snow.
Which you can build, your snowman with,
As you have, no where, to go.
As you are sitting, in front of your fireplace,
You say, "I dont really care.
Because, I know, just around the corner,
Spring, is in the air."

By Doretta


Yet

Do you ever feel lonely?
Yet, you know, your not alone.
Everything is alway's just so quiet,
Yet, you know, you hear a song.
You never speak a work out loud,
Yet, your mind, speaks to you, all day.
The people do come, and speak to you,
Yet, they never listen, to what you say.

You wish your family, would spend time with you.
Yet, you feel, they don't care.
You know there's one, to comfort you.
Yet, your fleshly loneliness, is there.
The flesh, is really hard to overcome.
Yet, you know, it can be done.
I know, some day, soon, I won't be here.
Yet, right now, this flesh, needs someone.

 

THE CHILD WITHIN

I ask myself, so many times, "Why did i come out of my shell.
As long as I stayed in it, it was my safety place to dwell.
No one could ever hurt me,and I could hurt no one.
I felt, I was alway' rejected, in every thing, I done.

I have alway' felt, I had a child, living deep in me.
That child has cried, for many years, "I need love, please can't you see?"
Then I heard the voice of God, speak to me, and say,

That little child, belongs to me, and she's going to be with me, some day.
He said, "all these chastiment's you go through is My way, I show you love.
And I will never leave you. and l'll watch you, from above."
It's just so hard for me to handle, these feeling's I have today.
They cause me to hurt and cry, I never knew love could hurt that way.
In Him, I know, I do have rest, and He is , my dwelling place.
Greater is He within me. with His love, mercy and grace.

I'm just so glad , I'm not of this world, and I'm just a passing through.
For I have failed, so many times, in thing's I've tried to do.
I know, I do not need that shell, for He'll take good care of me.
I pray, when others look my way, Let it be Jesus, that they see.

I just want others to remember, that I'm in the body of flesh,today.
But i have a glorified one, awaiting for me, when He takes me home, His way.

 


Thank you and come again soon!
