I Have A Brand New Acquisition.

I have a brand new acquisition,
And I got it just today,
It is priceless and it's beautiful,
And it will not go away.
It's here for the duration,
And it pleases me to say,
I hadn't known of it before,
But I'm glad it came my way.
I have a brand new acquisition,
And if you look at me, you'll see,
I am different, and I'm happy,
I'm now definately " me ".
My brand new acquisition,
Means for me a brand new start,
I acquired a new contentment...
I found peace, within my heart.

Paradise

Touched by visions of another place,
No wars, no death, just filled with grace.
Walking through meadows of forest green
Faces noticed, so long unseen.
Full of trust and caring love,
A place as peaceful as the dove..
who flutters softly overhead,
And flies the very path I tread.
A hand outstretched takes hold of mine
There are no tears, no sense of time.
And walking slowly onwards we..
Take in the vision which we see.
Birdsong softly fills the air,
Breeze blows gently through my hair.
People seen are strong and kind,
No anger, hate or tears I find.
And here within this special place,
There is no hatred for a race.
It matters not what faith you are
Each is an equal shining star.
Casting sideways I can see,
The pets which once belonged to me..
Here too are they within this place
And each is well, and has his space.
And all my folks who went before
I see each one who I adore..
The way they all are happy too,
Within this place of love so true.
I feel the grass between my toes
And know this place is my repose,
My visit there is short, but sweet,
It soothes my soul, this calm retreat.
An angel takes me by the hand
And walks with me around this land,
And shows me things I always knew
But needed just to see, it's true.
He talks to me in whispered tone,
Of other life as yet unknown...
That we shall come here when we die,
And of the spirit world on high.
He taught me lessons as we walked,
His knowledge shared, to me He talked...
And I was not to reason why,
There came a time to say goodbye.
I learned so much in that short day
To much to 'ere begin to say,
I saw so much, and share, it's true...
This Paradise awaiting you.
When time will come to move along...
And we shall sing our dying song,
Dont be afraid of what's to be
For better things are there to see.
Just take my word, fine things await...
Us all, within the Heavens' Gate
I saw it all with my own eyes
The Heaven that is Paradise.

Thank God.

The spirits of who've gone before,
Each night caress my soul,
Giving me the faith I have,
Making me feel whole.

It matters not the road ahead,
What perils might befall,
The love within the universe,
Is making me walk tall.

I breathe in what is good for me,
The hope, the love, the song,
And every breath that I breathe out,
Expunges what is wrong.

I feel the beauty and the joy,
Of being just alive,
And every day presents to me,
Great reasons to survive.

I try to keep to my beliefs,
My faith has made me strong,
With randon acts of kindness too..
I know I can't go wrong.

Lifes simple pleasures please me now,
It's like I'm born anew,
I've found what rocks my universe,
And I'm here to see it through.

My life is filled with joy untold,
It's washed my spirit clean,
Like waking from eternal sleep-
Encased within a dream.

My purpose now - to sieze the day,
My arms now open wide,
Embracinbg all life offers me,
With joy I cannot hide.

And each day as the sun does set,
I'll know it's meant to be,
That God saw fit to bless my life,
And set my spirit free.

With gentle understanding..
It's very plain to see,
I am blessed right now, and always,
And I thank God for making me.

Our Journey

Each of us are searching, through the canyons of our mind,
For eternal recognition, and a peace that's undefined.
Reaching out to others to help them on their way,
Helping them through traumas they are facing every day.
Befriending who we can, with a smile or kindly word,
Knowing we are helping, we will not be deterred.
Searching for the spirit which we know just hides inside,
Hoping for some guidance from a very willing guide.
All of different faiths, all existing just the same,
Sharing tears and laughter, the problems and the pain.
This journey is our solace, we need never feel alone..
At last the door is opened, we can truly say we're home

To Make Our Spirits Grow

There is a journey we all take, there are decisions we all make,
Which make our spirits grow anew, and give a point to all we do.
The very reason we are here, is not to shed a selfish tear,
But to be kind to all we know, and this will help our spirits grow.
If we can try a bit each day, to make folks happy in some way,
And ease a little lonely pain, Our journey wont have been in vain.
So never think of personal need, and cast away material greed,
Give kindness out before you're old, it will come back, and manifold.

I wont be here forever.

I wont be here forever,
My time on earth is brief..
But while I'm here I've things to do
For this is my belief.

I want to spread some kindness,
Alleviate a fear,
I want to spread some sunshine,
And dry a tiny tear.

I'd like to help the lonely,
Be here for those who need,
I want to plant a forest..
Of love, from one small seed.

To pray for those who need it,
To show I truly care,
To show the world the kindness way,
And make them all aware.

I want to be the perfect friend,
As folks have been to me,
I want to open up their eyes
So they can truly see...

I want to build some bridges,
To try and heal some hate,
To find some very common ground
To which we all relate.

I wont be here forever,
To share my peaceful views,
But I wont waste a minute
While I have it here to use.

And when I enter heaven,
For my final blessed rest,
I know that I can truly say,
For sure I did my best.

The Learning Curve.

Life is a series of lessons,
We learn something new every day,
Things dont always seem, the way that we dream,
And the colours of life can seem grey.

Sometimes life sneaks up behind you,
When you do not expect it at all,
And all that seemed good, is now misunderstood,
As life trips you an untimely fall.

The only way onwards is upwards,
To dust off and start off anew,
With God as a part, of your delicate heart,
I am sure you'll see anything through.

Wondering

I often gaze in pensive mood
Up to the stars above,
And wonder if they glance at me,
The ones who've passed, we love.

I wonder if they look at us
And watch the things we do,
And think of us on quiet days
Or when we're feeling blue.

I often gaze out to the sea,
At waves which hit the shore,
And wonder if they watch them too,
All those who've gone before.

I wonder too if they recall
The things that we remember,
The summer days with sun so strong
The firelight in December.

I know their life is fuller now,
One time I got to see..
But often I sit wondering..
Do they remember me?

Special Place ( For Prayer )

There is a tiny seat, near a stream, I know not where
And I visit it in silence when I need some quiet prayer..
A tiny bridge across it, I can close my eyes and see
Grass so fresh and green, and an overhanging tree.
The birds will come to drink, in the silence of my place,
It is mine and mine alone, when I need some quiet space.
No one else will visit, it is somewhere that's so calm,
But its beauty is always with me, soothing like a balm.
I can sit there on the seat, in the quiet of the day,
And pray in deep reflection, with the world so far away.
Sometimes I see a rainbow, or a gentle butterfly,
Sometimes I hear the breeze, ruffle leaves just like a sigh.
Often I can leave there, with joy and peace inside,
And faith renewed inside me, which I know I cannot hide.
Myself akin to nature, and feeling gently free,
You too can share my special place...just close your eyes and see.

Stairway To Paradise

When I was so much younger, very many years ago,
I had a true experience, which made my spirit grow.
During time of childbirth, I left this earthly plain,
And wandered with the angels, life was never quite the same..
A glimpse of heaven showed itself, and life that goes beyond,
Paradise within my hands, waved like a magic wand.
Embraced by higher powers, and love so sweet and true,
And feelings to accompany me, all of my lifetime through.
A knowledge was imparted, a vision I can share,
Of how to live in harmony, of how to love and care.
A spirit of true kindness, was showered down on me,
From the hand of my Creator, for all eternity.
A blessing from my Saviour, a chance to start again,
To care for my dear children, this was no precious bane.
Returned into this body, in the twinkling of an eye,
Having glimpsed a Paradise, and knowing now just why.
My task was just beginning, I didnt know it then..
I was given yet another chance before the last Amen.
I had a glimpse of heaven, in the twinkiling of an eye,
No longer will I be afraid, when my time comes for goodbye.
I know what does await me, on that far off final shore,
Eternal rest, eternal faith, which lasts forevermore.

My Angel of the Night.

In whispy clouds of grey she'll come,
And all my fears are overcome,
In shafts of glory, swirling bright,
My angel of the night.

When lonliness enfolds my soul,
She always makes me feel so whole,
She whispers, " things will be alright",
My angel of the night.

There are no fears I cant embrace,
Whene're I look into her face,
She even helps finds words to write,
My angel of the night.

She leaves me not, from dusk to dawn,
'Til I am past that final yawn,
She makes the darkness feel so light,
My angel of the night.

She guides me every waking day,
There are no words that I can say,
To thank her...for she feels so right...
My angel of the night.

Close The Book

In the manuscript of life we are all living,
As we go about our business day to day,
We have all learned of the pleasure in the giving,
Also learning how to live, the "kindness way".
We offer up to others all our pages,
That they may read the kindness in our heart,
And carry with them through the distant ages,
A tiny piece of us, the smallest part.
Each chapter and each verse is our lifes treasure,
Each line and every page, from this we learn,
To care for fellow beings without measure,
In the winding lane of life from which we turn.
And as our book shall end, there's no exemption,
We turn to life, to take our final look,
We realise that life holds no redemption,
The time has come, at last, to close the book.
