A New Day Nears

"Someone say something nice to me" One fine day while mingleling through time I came upon a Friend Who I found to be in gloom She says, "Someone say something nice to me" And I say to her:

To the east the day anews For all there is to see, for all there is to be That one find what is right for them Nothing is more special than sharing time With your Love, watching the sun bring dark to light The fresh smell of a new day, brings the spirit to life The sun's rays dance though the gentle blown leaves Making the spears of grass, the petals of flowers come to life The song of birds, you do hear The bubbly brook nearby You walk hand in hand along the meadow trail Taking in all the grander that nature doth display As the deer frolic along, only stopping for water at the bubbly brook The majestic eagle, soars aloft in his domain, the blue skies Along the trail the wild rose grows, the beauty of the meadow Whose petals spread sweet aroma in the air But not as beautiful or not as sweet as, "You" The pines so tall offer shade from the heat of day You stop, take refuge among the graceful pines Spread the blanket, share a picnic lunch packed just specially for two The two who share as one, for now, and all their dreams of tomorrow And as the sun sets towards the west They lay upon the blanket held in each others embrace Watching the light turn to dark as the moon makes shadows across the meadow As the stars fill the night with twinkles of light The two wish upon a star that the night never ends

Over the last few months I have met many friends, and this is what your friendship means to me. : - )

The Diamond Sparkled Web

One day while wandering the forest of life To see all the beauty around

The trees, mountains, valleys, birds, animals and all God's creatures of life

Many trails lie ahead, low and high

One beckon's me, "Follow me, and I will show you beauty"

I trudge along over hill and though the streams of the valley

Passing by the sentinels of the forest, the tall whispering pines

My legs grow weary, body aches as it has been a long trail

In the distance afar, I see blinding glitter

Like sun rays dancing off diamonds

Blinded by this, I not see where I am going

And before I knew what took place I was trapped

I try to fight free, but to avail

I am trapped in a web this I see

The diamonds I had seen from afar, are dew drops of the morning

I take solace in the quietness

And ask, "What I have done wrong?"

The sun begins to set, brings a chill to my spine

I feel the web begin to tremble, and call out , "Who is there?"

Behold a spider, before is there

I recognize as the deadly Black Widow, who with one bite, I be gone

I cry out, "Have no fear, I mean no harm, I am kind"

"I only come to find the Beauty I was told was here"

The Black Widow responds, "Yes, I will show you the beauty you seek"

"As your kind, respectful, trustful, and take pleasure"

"In knowing all of natures beautifulness"

And later in the night, just past midnight a metamorphosis did occur

I waited anxiously, as the minutes passed, till all was done

And before my very eyes the Beauty I did see

She is as beautiful as the flower she holds

A lovely "smile" to go with a very lovely face

One could not be blessed with more beauty than I have seen

And free from the Diamond Sparkled Web to continue with life's journeys

I go forward with the pleasure of knowing the Beautiful Black Widow

I Search The Unknown

The car is full, the open road ahead The road not smooth, As I journey outward To find all, to find one But most of all to find myself The unknown will be my compass The beauty of all will be my comfort I travel to and fro Not knowing where I go Not knowing where I have been Will pass the time of day, with any who share an ear Will share a cup of tea, under the graceful elm tree As clouds of fluffy white pass overheard Will learn from what is said, of all the toils of life And of all what is unsaid, but there, never being said Will grow a little more To share with all who care to listen As the road opens again before I am searching once more far and wide For around the next corner may be the place, I want to be May hang the sign, "Home Sweet Home" And rest my deary soul

My last Farewell

To my dear departed friend
