Laughter

When I laugh

I am

Invincible

Indestructible

Incorrigible

When I laugh

I am

Unconquerable

Uncatchable

Unafraid

I sparkle

and shine

Radiating

the life
within

As it
breaks out

Almost uncontrollably

Creating a shaft

of light

in the room

That forces you

to smile

But when you
smile

I catch my
breath

It pierces me

I wait

And then.....

You'll laugh

And the stars
shine

Brighter

The flowers
Bloom

The wind
sings

All becomes
right
and good

and
perfect

In this World

So I try
to induce you
to laugh

Again
&
again

So that
I may laugh

and the
World
Shines

Without even
knowing

Hand in Hand

We are created
equal
But different
Our jobs
strengths
weaknesses
vastly apart

But made
so we may
compliment each other

And make a happy
balanced home

But it takes
two
a plus
and a minus

So different
but always together

Salt & Pepper

North & South

Hand
in
Hand

Wind &
Waves

You & I

Male &
Female

Made
to
be
together

So we
will not be

Alone

Mentally
Spiritually
Physically

You
and
I

Hand
in
Hand

My Beloved Is.....

My Beloved is....
A paragon of beauty
Something that you rarely see

My Beloved is....
Perfect generosity
Full of true humility

My Beloved is....
Everything I want to be
Everything I cannot see

My Beloved is....
Human, unbelievably
Still so very dear to me

My Beloved is....
Strong in Christianity
Quick to run & bend the knee

Everything I cannot be
Everything I will not see
Everything in humility
Everything in generosity
Everything annoying me
Still so very dear to me

And in all of this, I can see

God gave to US eternity!

If Only...

What difference would it have made
If I only had been better?
If you had tried to be honourable?
If we had worked harder?

How would it have been
if only we'd ween Him?
If you had heard His voice?
If I had felt is touch?

What does it feel that we'd have worked
If you had only been worthwhile?
If I had been a princess from the start?
If we'd tried to grow?

Where will it go
If only I let go?
If only you learn?
If only He leads?
