WHAT I LOVE THE MOST

Cream in my coffee, butter on my toast and eggs over easy, and you as my wife.

It took a long time to find you, as I look from coast to coast. But now that I have found you, it’s you I love the most.

When days are dark and gloomy, and I stumble out of bed, and I look around and I can’t find you. Because you already went ahead,

To put cream in my coffee, butter on my toast, and eggs over easy. That’s why it’s you – I love the most.

A MOTHER’S PRAYER

When I close my eyes at night, I pray through the tears of pure delight.

Knowing I taught my children to stand up right, and to walk with pride and never look back.

While staying on the right track and staying within the walls of their faith. This is why they will never walk alone.

When they stop and listen – to a mother that cares, while holding on – to a mother’s prayer.

Spring is singing

Crescent Moon shining in the sky, winter saying it’s last goodbyes.
Shadows dancing on Frozen ponds, spring is singing I’m coming home.
Rain starts falling from the sky, winter is saying its last goodbyes.
Spring is singing I’m coming home. Flowers are pushing from beneath the snow.
Spring is still singing, I’m coming home. Rain is falling from up above to wash away the fallen snow.
But yet, spring is still singing I’m coming home. Look for me it won’t be long – spring is singing, I’m coming home, look for me it won’t be long.

THROUGH THE DAY

Have you ever had a day that was full of disappointments,
Have you ever had a day that just didn’t go your way.
This is when you should reach out for understanding.
And throw your hands up for mercy and guidance that will get you through the day.
Because every day is a journey, and some may get lost along the way.
So, raise your hands up to the heavens and say – God help me make it through the day.
I may be lost without your wisdom, but can you show me the way to a brighter day.
I know I shouldn’t be thinking about tomorrow, because I have so much to do today.
If I can just lean to your understanding, I know I can make it – through the day

IN MY HEART

You brought me home; you tuck me in. You said this is the beginning, this is where life begins.
You promised me we would never part. But here I am alone in the dark, tears on my pillow pain in my heart; just remember we would never part.
But now you’re gone and I don’t know why, Daddy said you were up in the sky.
I don’t know why you had to go, after you promised you would never let go.
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart – knowing you told me we would never part.
Now you’re gone and I’m all alone – just remember one thing mama I’m going to be strong. Because in my heart, that’s where you belong.
So, the journey is not over, and we will never be apart. Because we’ll always be together – here in my heart.
