words

We each have a gift. Some can do any sort of math they encounter, some can paint with watercolors, some can always say the right things, some can use words to bring thier life alive. Here is where I keep the paintings of life through words.

I put my hand in yours...
...and together we can do what
we never could alone!
No longer is there a sense of
                         hoplessness, no longer must
we depend upon our own
                               unsteady will power.

We are all together now.

                             Reaching out our hands for
                          power and strength greater than
                             ours as we join hands, we
find love, and understanding
                             beyond our wildest dreams.

Marriage prayer Lord, help us to remember when we first met and the strong love that grew between us. To work that love into practical things so that nothing can divide us We ask for words both kind and loving and hearts always ready to ask forgiveness as well as to forgive. Dear Lord, we put our marriage into your hands.

Sadow in the Moonlight Sometimes In the middle of the night I hear you call out my name Rolling over to hold you I see your face in the moonlight As I go to put my arm around your waist I realize there is nothing there We are alone again But for one brief moment We were together again In the shadows of the moonlight By Bridgett Leigh ~~Top~~

Spring Air Through so many winters nights. I sat withering Too tired to Love Too afraid to speak Too fed up to pray I was dieing! Snow covered me. I was bound for the ground. You sent me a buoy Light that directed me I was still afraid I stayed blind I stayed lost Still bound for the ground You called for me once again This time I listened This time I forgave This time I cried This time I cared! Now I sit in your spring air! The green grass tickles my legs The clouds wisp past My dreamy eyes watching My hair sparkling in sunlight My love growing each day My praise shouting your name!! It is time You have told me Lord That I become a buoy of Light To share Your wonderful Spring and Might! To save others from the cold ground! by eve ~~Top~~

Ages Ago Eternity Miles away Ages ago I said something. They were not just syllables They were not just scratches on paper. Because sounds can be forgotten paper can be burned I etched you in my heart I took my place next to your son Those things I said Lord They meant forever Lasting forever Starting forever I really do love you Only because of you Only for you Miles away Ages ago Forever in eternity by eve ~~Top~~

Butterfly Kisses There's two things I know for sure. She was sent here from heaven, and she's daddy's little girl. As I drop to my knees by her bed at night, she talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes. And I thank God for all the joy in my life, But most of all, for... Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer. Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair. "Walk beside the pony, daddy, it's my first ride." "I know the cake looks funny, daddy, but I sure tried." Oh, with all that I've done wrong, I must have done something right To deserve a hug every morning, And butterfly kisses at night. Sweet sixteen today, She's looking like her momma a little more every day. One part woman, the other part girl. To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls. Trying her wings out in a great big world. But I remember... Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer. Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair. "You know how much I love you, daddy, But if you don't mind, I'm only going to kiss you on the cheek this time." With all that I've done wrong I must have done something right. To deserve her love every morning, And butterfuly kisses at night. All the precious time Like the wind, the years go by Precious butterfly Spread your wings and fly She'll change her name today. She'll make a promise, and I'll give her away. Standing in the bride room just staring at her, she asked me what I'm thinking, and I said "I'm not sure, I just feel like I'm losing my baby girl." Then she leaned over... and gave me... Butterfly kisses, with her mama there Sticking little flowers all up in her hair "Walk me down the aisle, daddy, it's just about time" "Does my wedding gown look pretty, daddy?" "Daddy, don't cry." With all that I've done wrong, I must have done something right To deserve her love every morning, And butterfly kisses I couldn't ask God for more, man, this is what love is I know I've gotta let her go, but I'll always remember Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses... -- Bob Carlisle ~~Top~~
