Extraordinary thing called love

Tears

Our tears are what happens when it rains deep inside our hearts and we cannot hold the rain any longer.

Where Did You Come From

WHERE DID YOU COME from, baby dear?
Out of the everywhere into the here.

Where did you get those eyes so blue?
Out of the sky as I came through.

What makes the light in them sparkle and spin?
Some of the starry spikes left in.

Where did you get that little tear?
I found it waiting when I got here.

What makes your forehead so smooth and high?
A soft hand strok’d it as I went by.

What makes your cheek like a warm white rose?
I saw something better than any one knows.

Whence that three-corner’d smile of bliss?
Three angels gave me at once a kiss.

Where did you get this pearly ear?
God spoke, and it came out to hear.
Where did you get those arms and hands?
Love made itself into bonds and bands.

Feet, whence did you come, you darling things?
From the same box as the cherubs’ wings.

How did they all just come to be you?
God thought about me, and so I grew.

But how did you come to us, you dear?
God thought about you, and so I am here.

Star to wish upon

I picked a star to wish upon
From all the stars above...
And closed my eyes and made a wish
To send you all my love.
So look up in the sky tonight
And find one special star...
The one that holds my wish to you
No matter where you are.
When you see that special star
My wish will come to you...
For stars were made to wish upon
And wishes do come true!

I ASKED GOD

I asked for a flower,
He gave me a garden.

I asked for a tree,
He gave me a forest.

I asked for a river,
He gave me an ocean.

I asked for my life,
He gave me "YOU."

I love you my everything

What You Are To Me
A quick glance, a tender smile
I am caught in a spell
A gentle touch, a warm embrace
I know that all to well
A soft voice, an unspoken love
Across the way I see
A kind face, an inner beauty
That's what you are to me.

..Beauty Thing..

Beauty is a thing seldom seen
No one sees it because no one looks
Or at least not in the right place
Beauty is held by all
Within the soul it lies
Waiting to come out to the surface
Only it can't
Beauty is suppressed by the evils of the world
Only love can bring beauty out
Once seen
Beauty never hides again
Not even hatred can deny beauty
Of it's true design
Beauty although possessed by all
Will only ever be truly seen by few
And fewer yet will ever see
One of the most beautiful sights
The beauty held by you.

GOD SPEAK TO ME...

The man whispered,

"God, speak to me."

And a meadowlark sang.

But, the man did not hear.

Then the man yelled

"God, speak to me."

Thunder rolled across the sky.

But, the man did not listen

The man looked around and said,

"God, let me see you."

And the stars shined brightly.

But the man did not notice

And, the man shouted,
"God, show me a miracle."
And, a life was born.
But the man did not know.


So, the man cried out in despair,
"Touch me God, and let me know you are here."
Whereupon, God reached down and touched the man.
But, the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on.

So remember,
don't miss out on a blessing
because it isn't packaged the way
that you expect.
Take notice of the blessings around you.
