and the weight of the world was on my shoulders. and you lifted it right off of me. and you lit up my faith in my life when the world was so dark i could not see... as i was giving up all hope around me and their didnt seem to be a way .. you redirected my path and helped put my feet on the ground. and showed me i could be saved... a miracle in my day. and now i thank you Jesus for the faith and light in my life. thank you for giving me hope and a way. thank you jesus for saving me. its a miracle in my day.M.A.
The Neatly Made Bed
Only here will you find left-over popcorn
from days gone by, colorful, crispy
wrappers from all sorts of secretly stolen-
in-the night midnight snacks,
wrinkled, smelly clothes lost ages ago,
balled up papers with never-meant-to-be-read
messages claiming true love which lasted
only three days, books read who have lost
their way home to the bookshelf,
a lonely orphaned crayon missing it's family,
one bowl full of mold, what was it?
I wonder. Oh it can't be! but, yes it was a
peach. The ever-famous missing sock,
now where could the other one be?
yes, the life of a nine year old can be
found here in a bedroom full of discoveries
something to be pondered in amazement and at
the same time disgust! unless, of course,
you never, never, never ever look
under the neatly made bed.

i had chosen a very unique name to list a copyright poem on poetry.com which no longer exists and makes me really angry since i had several posted on their website for many years and they were all easy to find with the "writer" name i had chosen. did manage to save a few from my old emails and notes.
True Beauty
beauty and grace fade with the years
vanity is lost to the passing of time
if you look closely
only then will you see
the true beauty of me
for i am on the inside
only the luckiest will truly survive
wrinkles of pain endured
laughter lines of a thousand smiles
rivers of tears gone by
with everything gone yet so much to gain
true beauty is not lost in vain.
theres flat land all around me
far as the eye can see
looking up to the mountains
so far ahead of me..
gonna head up to the mountains
need a change of scenery
high up in the mountains
see how far we can see
lets head up to the mountains
come on get high with me
see how high we can be
theres flat land all around me
far as the eye can see
high up in the mountains
we'll have a change of scenery
come on head up to the mountains with me
… leave the flat lands all around me..far as the eye can see..
i had fun singing it and making it up while driving along through iowa cornfields with nothing else to do....and no one else could hear me! this song in no way refers to anything negative in life -is merely a way of comparison of one making it to the top and the greater view you have from there compared to staying in one place at one level in your life without striving to reach high for your goals...and no i didnt memorize it, the words change every time..lol...catchy tune but guess you had to be there... hmmm.... yeah we will leave the songwriting to the professionals!!!
