A LITTLE WHILE

Its only for a little while,

You can take care of me,

I can take care of you.

We do not have forever,

We only have a little while.

The years fly by and so the day’s

Yet only in a little while,

You will be called away,

This life is not forever.

It is only for a little while.

Then lonely days, and restless nights,

Time goes on but in my heart,

Time stands still, my love has left,

You went away, now where apart,

I was only for a little while.

Empty heart a lonely life,

No one to hold, no one to care,

I was yours and You where mine,

Now I’m alone---------------

It all was such a little while.

The Promise of the Artist

By

Thea van Doorn

Give me a pencil and some oils,

Give me a canvas and a brush,

I’ll use my soul and my mind,

I’ll use my hands and my eyes,

You will get beauty, you will get heart,

You will get peace You will get art.
