In the thing we call love there is fun

It is the reality of life
Sleep is creeping up (hour 15)

Pushing forward until the end

I refuse to hold back Lord,
I won’t go back Jesus,

The Road Not Taken (hour 13)
Two roads in life,
I am not able to travel on both,
I had a chance to stood before both,
one was straight and wide,
The other was narrow and had alot of obstacles,
it was over grown with alot of bushes,
I now had to make a choice,
should I take the straight and wide ,
or the narrow and full of obstacles,
My heart skipped a beat, it was in my throat;
As i thought about what my choice will be,
I was tired and confused from looking and trying to decide,
I chose to go on the narrow path
Because it was less trodden and Heaven.
will be my grand reward for pressing on!
Faith chose me, i did not chose faith,
so i pushed forward and never looked back.
I am proud to say this, with out a doubt
somewhere down the road in the future:
Two roads one to life and the other to destruction, and I—
I chose the one no one chose to travel on,
That is what made me who I am today.
The courage I have found,
has made me turn around,
Only one road I am walking,
In my life time,
Only one Road that leads to life.
The Move (hour 12)
After weeks of pondering
the moment finally came
we had to move and leave our
family and friends behind.
Furniture and boxes packed
as we get ready for the long travel ahead
we did not know what lies behind the horizon
but faith brought us through.
Moments of estacy
moments of long cherished memories
they will live on in our minds
we will never forget them
no matter the distance apart that we are.
Fame and fortune awaits.
Pitbull (hour 11)
Husky and bringled are you
your colors reminds me of the rainbow
sensitive to touch you are
your behavior is that of a human
trained you are
unchained you must remain
as you freely grace your home with your presence

You do not play with strangers
you are very aware of your master who he or she is.

Cooking and writing (hour 9)
Time has come to make dinner
pots rolling, the flames growling
Water boiling
meat prepped
time to get the dinner going
Words need to flow
before the hour go
need to settle in
to get in the groove to get the 10th hour going
Children screaming
Husband call
Dogs Barking
The neighbor call for some assistance
My hands are full
now what do I do
there is so much to do
music playing
breaking my concentration to sort my word
Jolted , bumped, pissed
and all why not just
throw in the towel
call it a day
roll over in my bed
cover my head
and go to sleep , oh sleep so sweet and beautiful
A Prayer (hour 8)
We need you Jesus Every day
We Need you Jesus every step of the way

We need to pray more often
Thank you Lord for keeping us
Thank you Lord for everything.
We need Jesus more than ever
as we go through our stormy weathers
