| The Rose Some say love it is the river that drowns the tender reed. Some say love it is the razor that leaves your soul to bleed. Some say love it is a hunger an aching endless need. I say love it is a flower and you, it's only seed. It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to Dance. It's the dream afraid of waking that never takes a chance. It's the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give, and the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live. When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long, and you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong, just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows lies the seed that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the Rose (written by Amanda MCBride) |
| Tear's of Love You were the friend I always longed to find, The shoulder I always thought would be there.... You are my mother.... one of a kind. No one could ever replace you, No time will ever take you from me.... Your love lives within me.... its true. I miss the things we use to do, Things that cross my path today... reminds me of you. Some spoken word from a passer by, Triggers a memory.... then I cry. But are they sad tears.... or tears of love? So many condensed years..... so many shattered cares..... I long to see you in heaven above, to take the walks that I only dream of.... To share the time that is not ours now... To tell you "I love you" and oh just how! To sit at Jesus' feet as He wipes the tears away.... Together, forever! That will be a great day! So hold on tight and we will pray for you.... Just relax in Jesus' arms.... and we will hold to His promises so true. And we will be Home soon! I love you mom! Copyright (c) 2001 Debi Gentry |

As our eyes meet...... I take your hand in mine...... I rub your face so gently..... Wipe the tears.....oh what thoughts could I find? Of memories today? Or of things that use to be? Will the thoughts be so mingled within..... Will the tears that flow...... Find much meaning then? How will you tell us the things you need us to know? Your little hands are so cold..... But your heart is very warm.... The little child-like looks.... Oh how my heart feels so torn! I love you so...... And I miss the mom I use to talk too.... I know you are in there mom.... Somewhere... I just pray that you hear my heart talking to you.... I love you mom!! I miss you mom!! I will never leave you mom!!! Don't worry mom.... I will be your eyes when it is dark.... I will be your mouth when the words need to be spoken... I will pray for safety as long as I live... for you mom..... For protections when I am not there to see... the things that are going on.... I will speak up for YOU. I will pray for many angels to surround you... and take good care of you. You are presious in the eyes of Jesus mom.... He WILL take care of you! One day soon mom, Jesus will make all these tears fade away... He will wrap His arms around us-- And we WILL see His tears that He has shed for us. We must trust Him mom..... He knows how bad we hurt right now... One day there will be no more sorrow or pain... One day mom, we will be together with Jesus! FOREVER! Copyright (c) Aug. 2001 Debi Gentry |

| "Petals of a Rose" (Copyright March 2002 Debi Gentry) Each one is of its own value, taking form of the beauty of God. Love within shines through me and you, Shall we search for the love of God? Will others..... all around us, See the joy, trust, and the compassion? Will the scent of our love penetrate as it must, And will they see the trials to be won? Or will the destruction come...as the petals fall, Only to feel the sorrow of life? Only to wipe the tears that are so heavy as we call, Please God hear my prayer---this cuts like a knife! I look to the sky, The beauty of your love... fills and shines so high, Oh Jesus....I know your above. I feel your arms reaching out to me, As the bridegroom reaches for the rose. Your love I am now desiring to see, The pain in this heart....its only you who really knows! Jesus...I ask you to take my heart, Form it as you have the rose. So beautiful from the very start, Make my life like the petals of the Rose. Beautiful in your sight, Strong with your strength lifting me. Powerful with your might, Help me to be...what YOU want me to be! Like the petals of the Rose! The love that you gave for me. Hold on to me and never let me go! I am yours! You will never hurt me, You will never run away. You will always love me, Unconditional every day! I am yours! Unconditionally! |
| "Sea of Feeling" Copyright (c) March 2002 Debi Gentry Feelings are like the water of the sea, drifting from shore to shore. One minute-they are happy, Before long they are no more. As life moves on-how do you control the emotions, the broken heart that never mends? New love-that goes through the motions, The promises of love that will never end. Affection wraps around my thoughts..... holding them tight, The feelings are so very strong.... Oh Lord....help me make it through one more night? Dreams once dreamed, oh how I long. Weariness haunts me every day, It greets me as I awake. The nights pierce my soul with the words you say, Can these feelings be fake? As the shore has no end, As feelings find no remorse.... Think of me as that "life time" friend, As these feelings in life runs its course. The pathways that we may need to take, May be leading in different directions now. But always remember---for "feelings" sake, I truly loved you and how! In my heart and prayers you will always be, Like the sea that is full of power. Each and every moment I will think of thee, And remember the love that filled many a hour! I will try to be the calm of the sea, Trusting in our higher power above. Allowing Him to re-form me, And to teach me the real meaning of love! Pieces of my heart-I will pull in with the net, Together we will rebuild the ship that failed. In trusting God.... I will have no regrets, In the palm of His hands..I will feel the nails! Does this hurt? Oh yes and how! As I wipe the tears I will see..... The love....the compassion.....the tears.... now, That Jesus has for ME! |
