A world of color

Especially for us all

Created by God

It has rained all week

Keeping all under shelter

Yet, the birds still sing

A new day is here

A clean slate for you to fill

Walk through it with God

Simple things in life

Can give you the greatest joy

If you will let them

Hidden little notes

Help keep the romance alive

As the years go by.

A group of people

Walking among the tombstones

Honoring the dead

Mothers and Daughters

Though their ways and thoughts differ

Still a special bond

Sweet new grandbabies

Special gifts from God above

Pray they live in peace
