IF YOU SHOULD SEE MY SON
If you should see my son out there,
Smile at him, show him you care.
If he is sad, please stay around,
Don't do like me, don't let him down.
Will he forgive me for I was afraid?
To admit mistakes that I have made.
I wonder if he knows I cry,
Miss him so as each day goes by.
If you see his face amongst the crowd,
Pass on this message, say it aloud.
I love him so since he was born,
And in his absence, I truly morn.
My heart is filled with so much sorrow,
But eagerly, I await for each tomorrow.
And should he walk right in the door,
I'll say I'm sorry and so much more.
The sun shined bright that special day,
God placed him in my heart to stay.
Despite my faults and my mistakes,
Without him, my heart forever aches.

OCTOBER GLORY SCENE
The road to work is beautiful, along the river's edge
Majestic trees with lush green leaves
Tower high and mighty, peeking down the ledge
The flowering trees pollinated by bees
The robins and the sparrows are no longer alone
Cause those Canadian geese are finally back home.
The water looks like diamonds were jumping in the air
The ferns below those big huge trees have sunlight in their hair!
Though life's a hustle bustle...somethings just draw you in
Inviting you to slow down too and listen to the whisper of the wind!
Now Fall is here in all her splendor - October Glory Scene
A palette only Mother Nature holds - the painters only dream
The leaves they change their colors right there before your eyes
The flutter of the birch leaves in shades of sparkling yellows
They huddle close together...you'd swear they were real fellows!
The Maples put on such a show...they're far from being dead
They turn dramatic shades of yellow and then to crimson red
Some leaves sail slowly to the ground and some just fly away
The ones that cling on to the branches plead just for one more day.
This last fling for attention can bring you to your knee
The little leaf clung on to life but now I cannot see
Its words to me still stay with me as I pass on my way
I'll miss you so..don't want to go...on this October day!

Check me out!
SILLY IS MY FRIEND
The first snowflake that will fall,
I will catch it after all.
It may settle in my hair,
Or the mitten that I wear.
It may catch me by surprise,
Make a splash in my blue eyes.
Where it lands nobody knows,
Perhaps it will slide down my nose.
If I go and take a peek,
It will kiss me on the cheek.
If I'm still...don't move an inch,
Then my face it'll gently pinch.
If I'm lucky...it'll linger,
On the tip of pinky finger.
If its course says what the heck,
Like a pearl drop on my neck.
If it dives and takes a dip,
It will tickle my upper lip.
Mommy hurry...see my FRIEND,
He's for real and not pretend.
Lemonade she poured for two,
"One for SILLY and one for you".

OUR PATHS DID CROSS
Our paths did cross the other day,
Meeting by chance or destiny.
She looked at me and looked away,
He looked at you and then at me.
As we walked on, we didn't speak,
Were we afraid the truth to seek?
Haunting memories of you and me,
Would they continue or set me free?
I thought of all the years with you,
But now I too found someone new.
His love for me is so sincere,
Her love for you, an open mirror.
Our paths did cross, I wonder why?
So that our hearts could say GOOD-BYE.
