The Promised Land

I'm no farther than a prayer away

He speaks to me, I hear Him say, "Follow me, My child, I'll lead the way. Keep My commands in all you do, Love your fellow man, As I love you. Just speak to Me, That's all it takes, To ease the pain, When your heart aches. I'm no farther than a prayer away, Anytime, Night or day. And when it's your time, Just take My Hand, And We'll walk together into The Promised Land."

Though you cannot hold me, I'm with you anyway; God had special plans for me, I got my wings today.   I did not want to leave you, but no longer could I stay; My time on Earth was over and I had to go away.   I'll be watching over you, do not be dismayed; I'm safely up in Heaven, I got my wings today.   I love you very dearly, in so very many ways; We'll be reunited when you get your wings someday.  

I love you, Mom, don't shed a tear, Please know that I am always near.   I'm never farther than a thought away, I'm with you every night and day.   I am the kiss of the morning dew, I am God's creature that watches you.   I am the flicker of the lightning bug, And the evening breeze? That is my hug.   I am the twinkle of every star, To remind you that I'm never far.   So when you feel you can't make it through, Just look...

Back To Me

If you love something set it free

You caught my attention right from the start;It wasn't long before you captured my heart;Years later, we've been through so very much;We've not had it easy, we've had it quite rough;We've both been stubborn; there's no doubt;Until recently it seemed we could work it out;No matter the depth of my feelings for you,If you don't feel as deeply, there's not much I can do;There's a distance between us like never before;No matte...

I Shall Not Know

Letting go when love goes wrong

We had a connection from the start; You stirred the embers in my heart;The longing I'd buried deep inside,I no longer felt the need to hide;But alas, we were not meant to be;so I gave you up and set you free;We both moved on and went our way;Tho' I've thought of you since that day;I've sat and pondered now and then,what would happen if we met again;The answer to this I shall not know;For I closed my heart when I let you g...

You were the sun that burned my skin because I trusted once again;Your words were like stars that fell from the sky, Only you know how often you uttered a lie;With your smooth talk and promises, you had me believing;Though I realized too late you were only deceiving;But I can't really blame you; I should have seen from the start,You were only an actor, playing a part;When you spoke of the future, I did not readily see;Tha...

A Final Poem For Mommie

Katy's heartbreaking inner thoughts

What is dying Mommie?Will all of me cease to be?Of all that I am and all that I've been,Is there nothing left of me?I believe in Heaven Mommie and think that's where I'll be.When you come Mommie, please try, oh try and find me.  I am not sure exactly when Katy wrote this heartbreaking poem and only found out about it today, (6/27/17). My mother discovered it in Katy's room about a week after Katy passed and felt it would...

I feel you moving with me; In my arms you slowly kiss me; In my ear, you softly tell me, How much you really miss me; Then I reach for you, my sweet, And find that you're not with me; It's just another dream of how it ought to be.

A Birthday Tribute For My Angel Face

The birth of an angel; A kiss from Heaven

32 years ago today at exactly 5:16 pm God blessed me with a beautiful, healthy 6lb. 9oz, 19" long angel. I named my angel Katherine Elizabeth.She was called Katy from the beginning unless she was in trouble, (which wasn't often), then it was her full name. The look on her sweet face when she heard this was comical in the fact that she couldn't believe what she was hearing and would smile innocently and begin batting her e...

Now and Forever

"Damn you," I spat out, "You promised me forever. What happened to our forever?"

I sat leaning against the stone pillar of the decades-old bridge, watching as the sun began to rise over the horizon, my legs dangling over the edge, my hand resting on the recently installed railing.No traffic would cross the bridge coming into the quiet backwater town that had been our home all our lives, and I concealed myself well enough not to be seen by any motorists leaving for their big city job. When the school y...

When it's late, and you fall asleep,Know in your heart the thoughts I keep; What I feel is strong and true,and my heart beats a rhythm just for you; No matter what our future has in store,My love will be yours for evermore.      

My Heart's True Love

Written for and dedicated in loving memory to my beautiful Angel Face, Katy

Kind and caring, sweet and fair;With gorgeous blue eyes and long flowing hair;A heart of gold, through and through;Loving to all, pure and true;My gift from God sent on angels' wings;Never questioned the unfairness of so many things;Always so hopeful, come what may;She held onto that hope 'til her dying day;Now she's in Heaven with God above;My daughter, My Angel Face,My heart's true love.           

Until We Meet Again

Written for and dedicated in loving memory to my beautiful Angel Face, Katy

Another years gone by since God called you home;It's never gotten easier, but still, we carry on;We take each day as it comes, a moment at a time;And bask in cherished memories, that always cross our minds;You were a precious gift, sent from Heaven up above;My special Angel Face, filled with boundless love;You're loved and missed by many; that will never change;You'll always be in our hearts until we meet again.

Heartbreak

When my first love broke my heart

I lie in bed at night, softly crying out your name;Because you touched my heart, I'll never be the same; You held me very gently, with much tenderness and care,But you gave me only a moment of your love and life to share;Now that you are gone, forever from my life;I have no other choice, but to endure the pain and strife;I don't want any other; you are all I'd ever need;I wish that I could reach you, make you hear my hear...
