      FOR LOVE....


For Love....
I'd scale the highest mountain
I'd swim the deepest sea
I'd walk on burning coals
I'd climb the tallest tree

For Love....
I'd give my life to save them
I'd cut off my right arm
I'd face a pack of angry wolves
I'd protect them from all harm

For Love....
In the fiery pits of hell
I'd face the devil himself
I'd knock this evil beast
Right of his self-righteous shelf

For Love....
I'd starve myself to death
To make sure they were fed
I would do all that I could do
To wipe away the tears they shed

Who do I love this much you ask?
Who could have this worth?
Lachen, Liberty and Storm, my children
The three that I gave birth.
REST IN PEACE

Many tears were shed the day
That accident took your life
Leaving in this world, your family
Four young children and your wife

They buried you on a cold wet day
Placing you in the ground
When they lowered you casket into the earth
Not one person made a sound

We stood around with tear stained faces
With your memory running through our head
Not wanting to forget a thing about you
Not quite believing you were dead

You are now with God, my cousin dear
But your memory will never cease
We will never forget you Kenny,
God bless you and rest in peace.
      MOTHER

Mother's are the greatest creatures
God put upon this earth

Only a Mother is able
To give a child birth

Though it is not easy
To bring her child up right

Her caring loving ways
Somehow gets her through the fight

Every day of her life
She teaches them right from wrong

Rest is due this special woman
For she has worked far too long
THE DAY MY LIFE CHANGED

As the wind softly whispers
Across the crisp autumn leaves

I walk alone quietly
Through this forest of trees

Thinking of the sunshine
And the happy day

The day my life changed forever
The day you came my way

You brought hapiness and love
Forever into my life

I've never been so happy
As the day you made me your wife
                       MISTAKES

Mistakes are made every day
By many people along the way
It started out with Adam and Eve
The Garden of Eden, they had to leave
I've made many mistakes in my life
I know sometimes they caused you strife
I pray every day with all my heart
That you will see, I will make a new start
Someday I will restore your faith in me
I'll somehow become what you want me to be
The Riches Of My World

Have you ever dreamed of being rich?
Of having diamonds and pearls
To adorn your fingers and kneck?

Have you ever dreamed
Of having fur coats to keep you warm?
Of driving a Merceded Bends
Or a Lincold Town Car?

Have you ever dreamed of
Having money to spend
On anything your heart desires?
To buy a famous painting
Just because you could?

Who doesn't dream of being rich?
Of having everything
They ever wanted.

I have everything
That I could ever want
It may not be money and jewels
Or all the "riches" of the world

But I have the best riches
That anyone could want
My family, my friends
A roof over my head
Food on my table
And clothes on my back

And my most precious jewels
That I have
Are my three wonderful children
Who are happy and healthy

What more can anyone ask for?

   MAY I HAVE THIS DANCE?

I LOOKED ACROSS THE SMOKE FILLED ROOM
MY EYES LOCKED WITH THE SEXIEST PAIR OF EYES
MY HEART STARTED TO FLUTTER
LIKE A SWARM OF MONARCHE BUTTERFLIES

HIS SMILE SHINED LIKE A NEWLY FORMED PEARL
AMOUNG THE OYSTERS ON THE OCEAN FLOOR
MY LIPS TREMBLED AS HE SAUNTERED MY WAY
CHILLS RAN THROUGH ME, STRAIGHT TO THE CORE

MY HEART STOPPED AND SKIPPED A BEAT
WITH THE VERY FIRST WORD HE SAID
"MAY I HAVE THIS DANCE?", HE ASKED
AS TO THE DANCE FLOOR, ME HE LED

I FELT AS I WERE DANCING ON AIR
AS WE FLOOTED ACROSS THE ROOM
THE FIRST OF MANY STEPS
THAT POLINATED OUR LOVE FOR BLOOM

                    DESTINY (Dedicated to the new love of my life, John.)

DRIVEN TOGETHER BY FORCES UNKNOWN
TWO SOULS MEET, AS IF FOREVER, EACH OTHER THEY HAVE KNOWN

AN EVERLASTING BOND THEY WILL CREATE
AS IF RIGHT FROM THE START, THEIR MEETING WAS FATE

SOMETHING ABOUT THE CONNECTION THEY FEEL
LIKE TWO HALVES OF THE SAME WHOLE, COULD THIS BE FOR REAL?

TOGETHER THEY DISCOVER WHAT LIFE HAS IN STORE
WHILE THEIR PASSION FOR EACH OTHER BEGINS TO SOAR

INEVITABLY THEY BUILD AN EVER LASTING LOVE
AS IF IT WERE WRITTEN IN THE STARS ABOVE

NOTHING AT ALL CAN SEVERE THEIR BOND
THE GODDESS OF DESTINY HAS WAVED HER MAGIC WAND

YOU SEE,
DESTINY IS SOMETHING THAT IS MEANT TO BE
THAT IS WHY I BELIEVE IN YOU AND ME
RECIPES
   LET ME HELP YOU

I see the pain you sufer
I feel the pain you feel
I know that depression
Can make life seem unreal

I know that you are sad
For all the things you lost
But I will wait for you
Forever, at all cost

I know that life seems bleak
At this moment in time
But things will get better
As the ladder of life you climb

Please let me help you
Get through your days so blue
All I want is to be at your side
To lend a hand to you

Don't try to do it on your own
Don't try to do it yourself
Don't shut me out of your world
Don't put me on a shelf

I love you with all of my heart
And will do what ever it takes
To cure all of your sadness
To take away your heart aches

I know that I can't replace
Anything that is gone
But I know one thing that I can do
Is love you on and on

I will give you the space that you need
To get your peace of mind
Just don't let our love dwindle
Don't leave our love behind

NEVER ENDING FEELING

You are my one and only
My every dream come true
You are in my every thought
Can't keep my mind off you

The sweet words that you whisper
The softness of your kiss
The gentle way you touch me
Sends me into loves abyss

This feeling to be never ending
Is my only desire
The feeling of your love
That has set my heart of fire
IN MY DREAMS

In my dreams I see us
Just you and I alone
Holding each other tightly
Our love for each other known

I look into your eyes
And you look into mine
We share a passionate kiss
Under that Aspine Pine

The fireworks begin to thunder
Heating up the night
Our kiss became much deeper
Our passion taking flight

This is the dream I dream
Of what our life will be
Our life to share together
For all eternity
A GIRL NAMED LACHEN

There once was a girl named Lachen
Who love to eat nothing but bacon
She ate it for breakfast, she ate it for lunch
All she could do was munch, munch, munch
Her mother would say, "You'll get as big as a pig"
Lachen replied, "How so, I am as thin as a twig."
Then one day, she awoke with a start
She decided to wake up and get smart
It was a dream that had brought her to this conclusion
A dream to real to be just an illusion
In this dream she was big and stout
But worst of all she had grown a snout
So now, Miss Lachen eats nothing but greens
She decided she'd rather look like string beens
                      I LOOKED

I looked high and low
I looked near and far
I looked at passerby's
I looked in passing cars

I looked to the heavens
I looked in the clouds
I looked in the stars
I looked in the crowds

I looked in church
I looked in stores
I looked in the desert
I looked on ocean shores

I looked in the trees
I looked in the shrubs
I looked in the bars
I looked in night clubs

I looked around every corner
I looked around every pole
I looked in every ditch
I looked in every hole

What was I looking for you ask?
What was so hard to find?
A special man of course
A man who is one of a kind

Now my search is over
Now my search can end
I have found my one and only
I have found you, my friend
    I'LL PAINT A PICTURE

I'll paint the sky in shades of blue
I'll paint a picture of me and you
I'll paint your lips touching mine
I'll paint our love to entwine

I'll paint your strong arms around my waist
I'll paint an everlasting embrace
I'll paint the rustleing leaves beneath our feet
I'll paint us walking down the street

I'll paint a picture without tears
I'll paint a love without fears
I'll paint a never ending light
I'll paint a love bird taking flight

I'll paint a sun to keep you warm
I'll paint a special bond to form
I'll paint a star in the evening sky
I'll paint a twinkle in your eye

I'll paint our destiny still to be
I'll paint your hand holding the key
I'll paint a dream come true
I'll paint me holding you
        ONCE A HEART          

Once a heart of gold
As pure as drifted snow
Now a heart of stone
That has lost its golden glow

Once a heart full of love
Full of dreams to be born
Now a heart so lost
So old, tattered and torn

Once a heart of joy
Full of dreams of hope
Now a heart of pain
That don't know how to cope

Once a heart full of life
More than all the rest
Now this heart is dead
A cold lump in my chest
A Special Angel

When we were all still spirits
Awaiting to be given birth
Awaiting for God to grant us
Our special place on Earth

He came to us to tell
Of a glorious gift to me and you
A gift of a special angel
To guide us through all we do

To laugh with us when we are happy
To comfort us when we are sad
To dry the tears we shed
To calm us when we are mad

To guide us through the bad times
To share the accomplishments we make
To take care of us in illness
To help correct, when we make a mistake

We all had the same question
One we needed to ask
What should we call this angel?
Who will take on such a task?

He gave a simple answer
With a voice so calm
This special angel
You will all call Mom.
Mother Of The Year

When I was just a little girl, around the age of two or three
I remember her taking gentle care, when I got a boo boo on my knee

Though she sometimes got angry, when I took a childish fit
She may have scolded me then, but loving me she didn’t quit

A few years went by, then I was seven or eight
I was such a handful, but she somehow kept me straight

Teaching me right from wrong, was sometimes quite a task
No matter what a challenge I was, her love for me she could not mask

Along came the toughest part, those terrible teenage years
But she was always there for me, to wipe away my adolescent tears

With all the rebellion that I showed, I don’t know how she made it through
Through all the trials and tribulations, she did it, as only a mother can do

Now I am a grown woman, with children of my own
But still she is there for me, her love as bright as ever known

She is my anchor strong, No matter when or where
No matter what time, day or night, you can bet she will always be there

I can never repay her, for all the things she did
All the time she spent molding, that spoiled rotten kid

My mother is the greatest, no other could come near
I would like to nominate her, mother of the year!

I LOVE YOU MOM!!
A BEAUTIFUL DAY

A beautiful day outside
The sun shining bright
A red-breasted robin
Taking its first flight

Children at play
On a backyard swing
Enjoying the sunshine
Of this day in spring

An elderly man
Strolls on past
One of God's creatures
Nibbling fresh green grass

A fluttering butterfly
A humming bee
Are only a few
Of the things that I see

Wat a beautiful day
To be out taking in the sun
To enjoy your family
And simply having fun
A Brand New Start

I lay awake throughout the night
His image running through my head
My eyes all red and swollen
From the million tears that I've shed

Crying for the love I lost
The love that went away
I pray that he'll comb back to me
In my arms forever to stay

I gave him all I had to give
All the love I had to share
He didn't seem to notice
How much I really care

He says he'll never forget
And will always be my friend
But I know in my heart
That someday that too will end

Now I am left with remnants
Of a shattered heart
My only other choice
Is to make a brand new start
