Nicely done!!

Tears and despair,
She wore on her face.
Softly she whispered
In a tone of lost hope.
She gave to me
Her broken heart
Dropping the pieces
Gently in my hands.
Asking me,
"Heart Mender,
Your my last chance,
In all my dispair.
I've tried, Heart Mender.
This heart is so broken,
All these little pieces,
Just won't stay together anymore.
Please, Heart mender,
Work your magic for me
If not, I will no longer be.
Oh Heart Mender,
My time is drawing near.
Mend my heart,
And make it new".
I looked at these pieces,
And broken they were.
All cracked and worn
From crushed hopes and dreams.
It saddened me
To see this woman cry.
I imagined
All the hurt she survived.
I said to her,
"Broken hearts are meant to be;
It makes the heart grow strong.
They may be burdened
With breaks and cracks,
Which teach the soul
Compassion and love.
So don't be weary.
I'll grace them with my own tears,
Which will mend them together
And last you for years".
As her heart sealed,
And started to glow,
The woman’s worries
Were there no more.
I handed to her
A new shiny heart that gleamed
For it was filled
With new hopes and dreams.
She smiled.
"Oh, how long it has been
To have love once again."

There's more to me the the "redneck side" of me that I normally show!!

With a tip of my hat I say "THANK YOU"

AWWWWWWWE!! Thanks!!!

Reread what you have and try again my friend, I know you can DOOOOOOOOOOO IT!!!
And thank you..

(This one I wrote long before I meet my Lady Wench)


I know you’re out there;
Patiently awaiting my arrival,
As I search for you in the eyes of every stranger.
I dream of you,
Holding me in the night,
And you long for my Touch;
Our patience keeps us content
In simply knowing
We are fated to cross paths
Love to finally find us.
In the chaos of the day,
I find myself thinking of you,
Whoever and wherever you are;
Such childishness I could never reveal.
We know with every step, we are closer.
You long to find me
Praying in your silence,
Loneliness,
Which no one sees,
For love to come to you.
I pray for your very likeness to enter my life,
Become part of me,
To merge lives & grow old together.
Perhaps, in our next breath,
Our hearts will stumble and find each other.
I’m grateful to have loved though lost;
And yet disenchanted that
I’m now without it,
Craving its taste once again.
The desire to love & be loved
Grows stronger with each passing day.
Where are you my love?
When will you find me?
Can you not hear me calling out your name
Into the void & darkness?
Surely I’m not destined to mere echoes of my own cries.
I know you’re there,
Feeling as I do,
Gazing at the same moon
wishing on stars in the same great heavenly sky.
One day, we shall share this joy.
Just you and I..

How'd I know you where like that in high school!!!

: thanks all..

Thanks Mirror!!!

When a cowboy’s crossin’ over
Does he sit in a rockin’ chair
Thinking of the mistakes he made
And times he lost?
Not this breed of man,
He’s thinking of cattle
And old saddles
And all the good ol’ days.
Words of comfort aren’t needed
No grief gets a hold.
No tears blur his vision
‘Cause his destination is known.
His heart is at peace,
His body’s now strong
His youth is renewed.
With no more pain in his back,
He can ride and rope
and gather strays all day.
He’ll be workin’ with
The best rounders.
They’re there waitin’
For him in the thereafter.
He’s a young man once more
Ridin’ with a grin.
His old horse is saddled.
With a jingle of spurs
A slap of the reins
He heads down the trail
Towards Heaven's plains.

On a warm summer's night,
As the sun is dipping low,
I ride up to the rim
To catch the nighttime show.
The shadows grow long
And darkness soon will be.
I close my eyes and listen
To the sounds I cannot see.
The eagle screams
As he prepares to settle down.
The coyote howls a different tune,
A crooning lament for his prey.
The nighthawks are coming to life
After sleeping through the day.
Down by the creek,
Bullfrogs and crickets
Chirp their lullaby to the sun.
I don’t know much about this old world
But when the day is done
I can promise you this,
If you close your eyes,
Open your ears,
And listen to the world,
As the sun goes down.

May His light continue to shine on you, bless you and continue to heal you.
Great write mom!!!

What a great CARPENTER you are...

Nicely done Mrs. T...
