A VALENTINE’S WISH

If I had only one wish and it came true,

I wish I could spend eternity with you.

In a world with glitter and fame and long walks in the pouring rain.

Just a chance to see that smile on your face and not a hair out of place.

Oh, if I could have one wish and it came true,

I know in my heart it would be me and you.

BE MY VALENTINE

BY LENNY JAYNES

When you turn the pages in your mind,
and look back over the years,
and remember how good it was.

When Mommy and Daddy were here.
with Daddy playing Santa Claus and
Mama pulling on his beard.

Oh yes, we had a rock and roll Christmas,
one that would last throughout the year.
yes, I still remember that rock and roll Christmas,
and that happy New Year.

THE REMNANTS OF YOUR SCENT

Yesterday you were just a flower growing from the Earth.

It’s not all about your beauty, but the remnants of your scent.

It’s that sweet intoxicating aroma you left to linger in the air.

As the rain and winds surround us, your fragrance still lingers there.

It’s not about the beauty of the flower that I want to see,

It’s all about your sweet aroma that intoxicates me.

Still Free

As we stand in the Vet’s cemetery on this Veterans Day,

and watch the flag dance in the breeze

as if to watch over all the men and women who have given their lives in such an honorable way,

So that we may all be free.

In a world with so much turmoil,

But yet,

We are still free.

Today is the day that we give thanks to all the veterans who have paved the way and thank them

Each and every morning because

Today we are free.

Still Free
