Poem - Christmas time is upon us

Christmas time is upon us once again.
And although we may be apart
You are always within me; in my heart.

So be of good cheer, whether far or near,
For HE gave his Son to us
And we celebrate His birth each year.

Poem - My son, My dear

My heart aches for you when you are sad; I am sad.
I wish you knew.

You talk of death to end your pain, but my pain would hurt even more.
My heart would be forever sore.

I know you don't understand why you are this way.
God made you this way, is all that I can say.

There is a purpose for you & I wish you knew.
The special way you see the world.
How you remember things most people never know.

And no matter each day I love you all the more.
You are my son, I gave you life.

You grew within me & you are God's miracle to see.

I live life each day, thinking of you.
I don't care if you are far or near.

I will forever love you, my son, my dear.

Poem - Sleep Does not Come

Sleep does not come.
I lay here tired & worn.

I am not sad or forlorne.
I am content just to be.

I know soon, sleep will come to me.

Poem - Give HIM Thanks

There are days when we gorget to give praise
To the One who helps us through.

Some days we forget to let go,
For he does know what we need.

There are times we don't give thanks to the One who grants the miracles that we see.

So, today, let us give thanks to He who gives us all we see.

Poem - Thoughts of you

The thoughts I keep having of the past;
Will they stay, will they last?

Are they of days gone by?
Or just a lie?

Is it jealously or regret?
Is is temporary or is it set?

Perhaps the're thoughts of what I wish were true;
Thoughts of how I think of you.

Poem - God gave me a Gift

There is a child God gave me as a gift.
He blessed me & gave my sould a lift.

This child was created by His hands.
No other like him in all the lands.

A child wired in a special way
to remind me every day
That He has a special purpose that I may not know,
But he will discover it as he begins to grow.

I hope he knows that God walks with him through all of the trials
And loves him, even through his denials.

You are a Special young man
And I love you will all of my heart.
You are growing into a good man & are always a part of me

And although there may be days that you don't see
Never forget God has a plan for you & me.

Poem - The Heart Chooses....

The heart chooses who you love.
Maybe it's a nightmare of from heaven above.

Your head may tell you, "No, no",
but your heart says, "Just let go."

You may have gone through hell,
but humans tend to dwell.

Remember instead, how you felt, when they held you close.
When they were next to you in bed.

The heart chooses who you love.

You can't argue because it doesn't use your brain.
Trying to understand can drvie you insane!

Remember when they walked into the room & it was all new?
Recall how you'd smile & couldn't stop?

Know that you can't be together & that is okay, but all I am trying to say is that your heart chooses who you love & only God knows why he made it like that.

Remember the connection you felt when they took your hand?
How your heart thumped like it was a drum in a band?

The things you liked & the differences you'd accept.
How you felt warm when they'd hold you tight & though you might try to fight
your heart decides who you love.

And you can dwell in the sad & the bad or you can remember with a smile how you just knew it was going to be them & you.
How you pulled through the good & the tough.
And how you each changed for the steps you had to take next in life.

And maybe you don't understand & have to leave it to above...
Because your heart chooses who you love.
