REMEMBERING!

Today is sunny,

today is quiet and still,

as I look over the hill;

The hill’s road,

leads to the place,

a place quiet and still,

a place I used to go,

go and sit and meditate,

on God’s words,

words I love so;

I loved walking,

walking past the beaver ponds,

and sit and sing,

in the place,

where the red pine trees grow.

In the last three years,

this body has grown old,

my feet now move,

in a different gear,

the gear called slow,

no longer can they go,

to my favorite place,

where the red pine trees grow.

So now I dream and remember,

that great old spot,

where the red pine trees grow.

Surrounded by Angels

SURROUNDED BY ANGELS As sometimes we feel alone Remember we are surrounded by angels, like those around God’s throne. When we feel helpless, We are surrounded by angels, God has sent to bless. When we need a message from a gospel tune, We are surrounded by angels in our room, and when we need encouragement remember, we are surrounded by angels, Glorious Angels God has sent. Yes, when we feel gloom, Don’t forget, We are surrounded by angels, surrounded by angels in our room. ~WINSTON STAPLES

CLOUDS!

 THE CLOUDS Our lives are like the clouds, little vapors in the sky, we hang around awhile, then we say goodbye. Our lives are like the clouds, sometimes all fluffy and white, some times we have our trials, like the black clouds at night. Our lives are like the clouds, being driven by the wind, sometimes we are tossed to and fro, as we fall into sin. Our lives are like the clouds, that are controlled by God’s hand, when we put our trust in Him, He will guide us across this land. Our lives are like the clouds, all beautiful and bright, floating around the sun, as it sets at night. Our lives are like the clouds, little vapors in the sky, we hang around awhile, then we say goodbye. ~ Winston Staples

Poem

DAY BREAK What a beautiful morning, the sun is shining bright, it makes my heart sing, as it removes the darkness, and reveals it’s marvelous light. The bright reflection on the water, shines so brightly in my eyes, and in the pines, a lonesome dove, makes it’s lonely cry, but off to the right, I hear a robin sing, cheer up, cheer up, it is spring! ~ Winston Staples
