Art Display...........

If God should spread across the sky
For all man to behold
Each moment of our year gone by
In pictures bright and bold
And if we stood to gaze upon
This cosmic gallery
To witness all the things we’ve done
I wonder what we’d see…….

Such a Night......

It was such a night tonight
Crisp, serene and still
The moonlight shed her cloak of white
On every slope and hill
Each barren limb, was clearly sketched
Upon the pristine snow
The world, a charcoal drawing etched
Within the moonlight’s glow

As I stood in this silent hour
It seemed that I could hear
The message of an angel choir
Upon a midnight clear
Peace and hope and love shone down
In grand and silent glory
As I recalled the angel’s song
And Love’s amazing story

It was such a night tonight
Within its tranquil glow
It seemed that I could glimpse a sight
Of one night long ago
As angels to the shepherds came
With glad tidings unfurled
A child is born in Bethlehem
A Savior for the world

Janet Martin~

It came upon the midnight clear
The glorious song of old.....

Cure for Tumbled Thoughts

You tumble…..
Tumble….
Tumble…………
Like clothes in a dryer,
Over each other…
Over….
And over…….
Wish I could smother
The ones that seek to
Make a liar
Liar.
Liar…………….
Out of me….
Set me free
Free…..
.free
From this dizzying cycle…..
As they tumble……..
Tumble….
Tumble…………..
Bright and muted colors
Swirling.
Twirling……………..
Round and round…
I think I’ve found
The answer…..
Peace at last!!!!!!!!!!!
M-m-m-m—m!!
Coffee, you never let me down!!!!
Cheers!!

My Want List

I want to encourage others in all the words I say,
I want to spread a little bit of happiness each day,
I want to lift the heavy load
Of those I meet upon life’s road,
And never walk a wasted mile,
Forgetting how to pray or smile

I want to think a little less
Of selfish goals or wants,
I want a failing memory
When evil gossip taunts
I want a thought-life, good and pure,
A faith in God that will endure,
Should time of fear or testing be
I want to stand, my God, for Thee

I want to learn to seal my lips
To words that hurt or hinder,
And should some words unbidden slip
I want them to be kinder,
I want to stand on that glad day,
Not drooping low in sad dismay,
But hear these words ring loud and fervent,
Well done, thou good and faithful servant

Me and my Thoughts

Just me and my thoughts
Nobody will know
Where they will take me
Or where they will go
It’s nobody’s business
What’s inside of me
Just me and my thoughts
Oh, what will they be?

Just me and my thoughts
A private affair
It shouldn’t matter
What goes on in there
And it should not matter
What I choose to think
Just me and my thoughts
Unwritten in ink

Just me and my thoughts
A constant warfare
Yes, Someone knows
And yes, Someone cares
For in this old world
No deed has been wrought
That did not first begin
With one little thought
