About the Pome Don't Say Good Bye (Short Story) - 12/24/2011 1:26:45 PM
yes...all beings, all situations on our lives as they come and go are for every reason, His reason!

the story behind the Pome for Garth Brooks (Short Story) - 12/2/2007 3:08:51 AM
Garth is a driving force behind your poem; and you captured that well. He is an entertainer's entertainer; but I can't handle the loud guitars, the fireworks, the rock show feel to his concerts. It hurts my ears, bothers my eyes. So I just don't go to see him anymore. I'd much rather see someone like Loretta Lynn or Alan Jackson, people who can still entertain, but do it in a way that doesn't drive the older country music fans away. I am more of a traditioanl country music fan; Garth is country, but he's also too "rock" for my traditioanalist taste buds. (I DO like a lot of his music though, particularly his early stuff, when he first started.) (((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :)

I Wear A Mask (Poetry) - 8/25/2021 9:31:24 AM
I wear a mask every time I go in public. I have a mission to protect myself and others. I wear it because I respect others, knowing that they, too, will have a family to go back to, and they, too, will have to keep their families safe. Sandie

I Wear A Mask (Poetry) - 8/25/2021 8:49:26 AM
Indeed, so many reasons for people to wear a mask during this pandemic, especially now with increased rates of sickness; yet many still there are those who refuse in the name of freedom - freedom of the one over freedom (and health) for the many.

Dream Big (Poetry) - 8/25/2020 9:31:43 AM
Capitalizing every word does not make the word better, just wrong in English syntax. And dreaming big is not make the dream better. No evidence that it requires God for a dream to come true. Ron

Words From The Wise (Poetry) - 8/4/2020 7:22:54 AM
Indeed, I fully agree, we need more words "that are wise, not words that are negative." Wise advice.

A Man In The Mirror (Poetry) - 8/1/2020 12:33:34 PM
It's interesting whenever we would look into the mirror and wonder "How did I get to this stage in my life?" - Then you would realize it hasn't all been that easy and remember how many times you have been saved by God and Jesus, simply because you had faith in them. You would begin to think of the many struggles and achievements in your life and you can't help it but be proud of yourself, the person in the mirror! Sandie

So sweet! I have a small train set surrounding a tiny village that I love to spend time with. A double decker table so the tiny train can huff and puff its way up and down.... Be safe, Karen

When I gave my heart away (Poetry) - 12/18/2007 4:42:06 PM
Richard, It is only when we give our heart that we feel what true love is my friend. The only answer to why you gave your heart away is so that you could reap the rewards of doing so, and I hope that you have. All the best, *Glen*

Hey Richard: It's nice of you to have posted this. I know you meant the real Jesus Christ! But some people might just take this poem and think it's their own, and think themselves are Jesus Christ. There are a lot of this type of people in this world. They think they are the God of everyone and everything. Anyway...A nice poem in praise of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Sandie May :o)
