My mind is sharp, So young at heart. My body aging, falling apart. The days so long, Time ticking by. I sit and wait, I wonder why. Left forgotten, no time for me. I've been there too, Too busy to see. One day soon, I'll be called home. You'll then be, left free to roam.

Their purpose here fulfilled, it's time to … Continue reading God’s Gifts

Blind Full of Light
So much we take for granted, as we go from day to day. To see, to hear, to smell, as wonders come our way. A dear friend today is blind, darkness fills his life. His legs no longer hold him, dependant on his wife. His hands are losing feeling, a little more each day. A … Continue reading Blind Full of Light
