Mother’s Day 2017
Happy Mother's Day!!! I have said it many, many times; a Mother's role or job, is the most important job on the planet. I am fortunate to have been blessed so abundantly.

Twice the Love
The Standard is Falling, but He Answered His Calling
I know I'm not the first, nor the last, to have a parent in a nursing home. Still, it's a first for me. Dad is in a nursing home.

What Did You Do Today?
It was you I came to see, I chose this to do with my day In tears, I left, just how much do these troubles weigh Tone, I can handle some, but I tripped over the string, The slim grasp of matter from where the words you sling Love is hard sometimes, but it's always better than the dark Where the evil dwell, taking aim to hit their mark I can't put myself in your skin, in kindness I visit each Continue Reading...
My Love, My Wife
Hair of gold runs away from that perfect smile Don’t mind me if I just grin and stare awhile Lips so soft and full, they call out to me Those are taken, we vowed, don’t you see Cool to the touch, your shoulders I touch Close to you, time spent, never too much Your hands reach for nobody else, just to yours That, I am, your touch the greatest of all cures Oh save that smile Continue Reading...
