A Prayer For My Mom (Poetry) - 2/25/2016 12:33:16 PM
Cindy I'm so sorry for your loss. This is such a tender and beautiful tribute to your Dear Mother.
A Prayer For My Mom (Poetry) - 2/14/2016 3:03:51 AM
CINDY, SO SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR MOM, BUT SO GLAD TO KNOW IT WAS ALL WELL WITH HER SOUL AND THAT YOU ARE STRENGTHENED BY YOUR FAITH AND 'HIS' LOVE. GREAT POEM AND THANKS FOR SHARING. HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO YOU! LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
A Prayer For My Mom (Poetry) - 2/13/2016 12:42:54 PM
So wonderfully heartfelt for your mother. Fortunately, my 91-year-old mother still calls me every Monday at 4 pm so that she can read me on her TTY. We haven't been in the same room together since 2011, so she cherishes those calls to me.

A Christmas Prayer (Poetry) - 12/25/2015 8:04:17 AM
Wouldn't it be nice if everyone lived like him? At least we have a day where we can try to be like him.

Colors of Love (Poetry) - 12/11/2015 11:31:03 AM
You sure know your colors better than I! Let us hope that everyone gets the colors they want.

Seed of Love (Poetry) - 12/9/2015 8:13:20 AM
The reason there are so many seeds is not so that all of these seeds will flourish, flower and have long life. So many seeds are required because only a very few survive long enough to provide for continuation of the next generation.

Thank You Mom (Poetry) - 11/22/2015 9:25:24 AM
And I say, Thank you, to you, for taking care of your mom today. So many can, but don't.

JJoining in the Dance of Life! (Poetry) - 11/7/2015 7:53:12 AM
I love autumn. I love the colors and I love to write about the beauty surrounding us. Yes, I agree, songs are all around us.

JJoining in the Dance of Life! (Poetry) - 11/6/2015 8:09:07 AM
Sometimes on a warm autumn afternoon while sitting alone on a wooded hilltop, one can hear the distant drums and smell the campfires cooking the bounty of the land for eons before progress came and changed everything to what it is now.
That's the life I miss when I venture out in fall to those now silent, ancient hilltops. But the leaves still rustle in the wind and the birds still sing. It's a happy time to be alive.
Ron
Jesus, I Give You My All (Poetry) - 10/30/2015 4:17:12 PM
Right from your honest heart comes this little prayer. Jesus wants us to be as little children, trusting and honest before Him. You've done the best when you offered Him your all.

Happy Halloween (Poetry) - 10/28/2015 4:25:19 PM
All Hallows Eve is very important to alot of people
hug
Kathy
Happy Halloween (Poetry) - 10/27/2015 9:04:10 AM
I believe this stems from All Saints Eve, combined with fall solstice celebrations, so that Halloween has become a mixture of pagan and Christian tradition like Christmas and Easter. No matter how hard religion tries to stamp our pagan roots out, it never seems to work. I love paganism because it is so close to the natural world.

Inspiration (Poetry) - 10/19/2015 9:08:48 AM
I am sure we all can relate, Cindy. I wait for inspiration; sometimes it pours and sometimes, it is a drought. Love and blessings,

Inspiration (Poetry) - 10/14/2015 8:02:51 AM
The Muse is a mysterious being. It can crop up at the wrong time when it can't be satisfied, or the Muse may string you out for a very long time before bursting out with beautiful song.
Ron
Gift of Life (Poetry) - 10/13/2015 8:11:50 AM
Love, what could we do without it.
Gift of Life (Poetry) - 10/13/2015 7:08:34 AM
And it's very important that we don't just, "Go through the motions." If we are given the gift of life, we should all strive to make life better for everyone. That is not easy. It is hard. Sometimes, when we think we are giving, we are actually taking away. So, it is very important that we sow the right seeds because we have only this gift of life for a very short time in the scheme of things and we must not waste our gift on simple pleasures.

My Birthday (Poetry) - 10/11/2015 3:18:27 AM
Happy Birthday to one of God's angels here on AD. You are a beacon of hope in a world that is losing it. And by the way old age starts at somewhere in your nineties. You have a long way to go and are still at a very productive age. May God lighten your load and bless you with good health that you may continue to be one of His apostles.
My Birthday (Poetry) - 10/11/2015 1:09:31 AM
Happy Birthday Cindy. You have been an inspiration and a shinning light for all. May your reflections bring about Gods' glorious plans for you as we enter into a beautiful season this Fall. Christ love and blessings. Amen!

I would like to thank you for your kind words.Tried to figure out how I could send a note to all of you at once- but have to laugh- I'm not very computer savvy. Guess thats how you spell the word. Anyway-thank you so much!

Where Does the Love Come (Poetry) - 10/7/2015 5:28:41 AM
Cindy,
A beautiful poem. You have a compassionate and caring heart to care for your Mother. I miss my Mother so much. She was killed by a hit run driver as she crossed the road. She left eight kids behind, the youngest only 7. I know you cherish every minute with her. Love to you both.
Love and blessings,
Linda

Prayer Reflecting on the Visit of Pope Francis (Poetry) - 9/25/2015 11:05:52 AM
I really like how Pope Francis gave the U.S. Congress a lesson in humility and understanding. I hope that his message will bring our representatives together so they can solve the very real problems that Francis so eloquently spoke of without bitter bickering over old, tired, ideas repeated over and over but never solving anything.

Hands (Poetry) - 9/18/2015 7:15:22 AM
Like so many things taken for granted. Hands that keep us fed to carry on and type good poetry and thoughts. Good inspirational poem. Ashiff
Hands (Poetry) - 9/14/2015 9:02:19 AM
My hands have been paralyzed for 52 years. But I still use them every day and I'm grateful that they still do what they do even though I lose more function every year.

Wonderful idea, nicely executed. I have written also about hands elsewhere.
Jesus's Prayer Tonight (Poetry) - 9/10/2015 12:29:02 PM
Indeed, being held in His everlasting arms.
Prayer Tonight (Poetry) - 9/4/2015 4:38:26 AM
A noble sentiment that you have done well thru poetry to remind us of. One of the verses of the Quran reads as follows: Why do you say what you do not do? This is a challenge that we must all meet. Thanks for reminding us.
Prayer Tonight (Poetry) - 9/1/2015 10:03:46 PM
Thanks again for a nice prayer.

Cindy,
Beautiful poetry. I believe Jesus does hold our hand every day. He guides us and leads us where He wants us and shows us the right paths to take. Without Jesus with me I'd be nothing. Thank you for this amazing poem in tribute to our Lord.
Love and blessings,

Little Light Shine (Poetry) - 8/21/2015 7:42:14 AM
Simple and sweet. While reading I kept thinking about one of my all-time favorites… "Shine your ever loving' light on me."
Ron
The Song of Peace (Poetry) - 8/19/2015 5:43:47 AM
The songs of the Beatles have been credited to help bring down the wall between the Communist East and the Christian West. But in his, perhaps, greatest song of peace, Imagine, John Lennon described how we should do it ourselves without relying on God.
"Imagine no heaven above us… Below us, no hell."
Ron
Prayer of a Caregiver (Poetry) - 8/18/2015 6:26:10 AM
I'm amazed that you are still able to take care of her. It's wonderful that she has you close by at this time in her life. So many give up and leave their elderly parents under the care of others.

River of Love (Poetry) - 7/26/2015 8:07:46 AM
Your poem is very uplifting and reminds me of the river of life.
I listened to your song and it is very well orchestrated and sung by you. I certainly do hope that someone will pick it up for you and make CDs or play it on the air. Very enjoyable.
All of you here on AD who are not commenting. Please check out Cindy's song by copying the link and pasting it into your browser. You won't be disappointed.

Where to Find Peace During Hard Times (Poetry) - 7/17/2015 7:19:46 AM
Contemplation goes a long way in times of turmoil and stress. Your poem reflects that very well.
Ron
Where to Find Peace During Hard Times (Poetry) - 7/17/2015 5:25:53 AM
In the spiritual tradition I take part in, the soul is the "ground" of the individual, the place where a person stands, identifies him/herself, and takes root to grow. Everything refers back to the soul which is the accumulation and summary of who we are. Your poem reflects that nicely. Thank you. John
Let The Light of Jesus Shine (Poetry) - 7/14/2015 1:16:53 PM
Hi, Cindy, I really like your prayer1 It is encouraging and uplifting.

God's Music of Creation! (Poetry) - 7/8/2015 6:37:11 AM
I love music too… And dancing. Why is that some churches, like mine, a Presbyterian church, banned dancing? And some churches declare some kinds of music, "devils music?"
Who are they to judge? Music is music and it fills my soul. I don't need to have someone interpreting something to determine whether my music is good or not.
Ron
The Light of Jesus (Poetry) - 7/7/2015 1:23:11 AM
