A poem

"Thinking of You"
by: myself

I think of you in the darkness of night
When all has fallen silent and I am left alone
I imagine your arms around me
And can almost feel the warmth of your breath on my cheek

I think of you in the brightness of day
When life is busy and the world is rushing me along
I imagine you pulling me aside
Just to smile and tell me of your love

I think of you when I pray
When God bends His ear to me
I ask for His blessings in your life
And for His angels to protect you

Wherever I am, whatever I am doing
You are not far from my thoughts
And I just wanted to let you know
That I'm thinking of you.

Hi Ciera, Michele did not send me - but I do believe she started the introductions a while back....

I love your poem - it's sweet and kind and wrapped in the sentiments most of us don't share often enough.

Have a great weekend!

thanks everyone.

I've found that the best poems I write come from the heart...although I've never been able to write one from joy. Go fig.

I take it back...I have since learned to write from a place of joy. [going by the latest poem I posted] :)

Types of Friends

The other night, the friend that I watch tv and movies with was sharing something she had learned from a MOPS meeting. About the two different types of friends. Since that discussion, I've realized that there are at least 2 more types of friends and goofball that I am, I thought I'd share it all with you! Don't you feel lucky and special? :) 1. Mushroom Friends : These friends spring up over night and are in our lives just for a season. Kind of like the friends I made in school. The season is way over as I didn't even get Christmas cards from them this year [yes, I sent them cards]. 2. Oak Tree Friends : These friendships develop slowly, starting out small and laying down deep root systems. They last forever no matter how far apart the friends grow; time, distance, oceans and death cannot break the bond of friendship. They are the kind that years after being out of communication, if they heard you were in trouble {death in family, illness, etc...} they would drop stuff

My Happy Face

There is something wrong in this world when they steal the magnetic smiley face off the back of your car. Which someone has done. But, I only rolled my eyes heavenward and said, "Whatever!" Must be the neighborhood kids were bored or something.

A Situation

Ok. I need to think out loud here for a bit while I wait on email. I have a situation going on that could become tough. A bit of background: About 2 years ago, a single man started coming to my church and showed an interest in me. It lasted about a month and a half, with him giving me mixed signals all the time...since I have been praying for a husband for a while now, at the time, it seemed like my prayers were being answered despite the confusion. It all came down one night about midnight in his parking lot and I haven't talked to him since. He only stayed around for another 7-8 months, and those were very hard months. He lied to me and mislead me, often. Like it was second nature for him. It was made even more traumatic by a discovery of mine on a website shortly after he left the area. In September 2005, I had a blind date that was far from fruitful. My singleness and desire to be married is known to all in church, and so... To the present: Yes, another single man has walked in
