Lord, from You, all good things flow, we praise your name, for all your gifts; protect us in the hour of need, from all external hurts and rifts. Shelter us from wayward leanings, that crop up from time to time; keep us safe from earthly charms, from the pettiness of crime. Build in us a sense of pl...

Reminds me of when the reflection of the hillsides appear on the waters of a lake, a painting twice loved! Nice writing.

Thanks for the comment.

What are these candidates about? they use foul language and they shout; what has happened to our courtesy? (did it start with you or me!?) All persons running have great flaws, they ignore their own great laws; boasting of what they do not know, it's entertainment, a minstrel show. I pray for this s...

Stella,
Thanks for the comment. Your are so right. Pessimism is a worthless road to follow.

drllrd74

Thanks Seema. Same goes for you.

Never see tomorrow with misgivings, never see the past with sad regret; have no qualms about the present, because your expectations are not met. Be content with treasures that you have, faith in God, your family and your friends; good health, life's simple pleasures, undying love you know will never...

Father,You know me better than I know myself, You know my heart and can see inside my soul; You are there for me whichever way I go, You know the things I love that make me whole. There is Your peace that no carnal mind can see, that flesh and blood, they cannot comprehend; only the Spirit reaches t...

Nice write Cindy.

drllrd74

Sounds like an excellent plan to me!

drllrd74

I'm waiting for, tomorrow's world, when peace will be the key; when every ear will hear, and every eye will see. When lust and greed and envy, will no more hold their sway; when lies that once were spoken, will all be put away. When every knee shall bow to Him, in obedience and truth; and God will w...

drllrd74

Amen to those words Seema.

The blush of morning gives us pause to wonder. Nice writing Stella.

drllrd74

You remind me of an iceberg, exposing little, hiding quite a lot; you keep your secrets underwater, with what you've learned, what you've been taught. You've an independent mode of living, that answers not, to any man; but drifts along in deep seclusion, lost in the darkness of your plan. A hermit i...

Wonderful write Tom. You captured a rare summer day in a special way.

drllrd74

Wishing you were here again, so nights are not too long; so I could feel your warmth, as we sang our old love song. Wishing you were close again, to take in your embrace; to hold you... oh so tight, plant kisses on your face. Wishing you were mine again, so my days were not so short; so I could touc...

Good advice on living. nice write.

drllrd74

There must be days of darkness, to appreciate the sun; there must be fields of green grass, in which young colts can run. There must be worried minds, before happiness can reign; there must be fallow ground, that anticipates the rain. There must be paths to trouble, in our life... along the way; the...

Too long at the mirror, choosing clothes of fashion; with things of little matter, is wealth your greatest passion? Have you not the urge to give? to those with simpler needs? have you become obsessed, to what your ego feeds? Have you set aside your soul, to follow after lust? shrugged aside relatio...

Nice musings on autumn and the unusual arrival of winter.

drllrd74

Thanks Cindy!

drllrd74

I know that love can lose its luster, by some things we say or do; by indifference to all others, by things that aren't thought through. I know that hope can fall to pieces, by the obstacles we face; by roadblocks on our journey, by life's strong, endless pace. And I know that dreams can die, by the...

I will never leave you or forsake you, I will always be around; once you were disturbed and lost, it's only now that you've been found. I will lift your heavy burden, give you peace, within your soul; get rid of all the ugly fragments, make your mind and body, whole. When you feel you can't go on, l...

drllrd74

Thank you Cindy.

drllrd74

Thank you Cindy.

drllrd74

This morning's surprise was... the first snow of the year; falling sweet from heaven with my creator near. The gift of varied seasons, each wrought with its own charm; sprinkled from Your hand, from Your upraised arm. You give us only good things, not like Your adversary; Your love is there for all,...

drllrd74

Nice musings here Fay.

drllrd74

Tom,
Having to write about the loss of one's life, the one you loved, is most difficult. Sometimes it seems as if it always will be. I can feel the hurt.

drllrd74

Thank you Fay and Joseph

Take me back to childhood, when the love was all around; when friends and families gathered, when there was pleasant sound. When relatives were friendly, there were hugs that did abound; when we sang carols after dinner, when cheerfulness was found. Take me back to my hometown, when all our love was...

drllrd74

Amen to all those stanzas.

drllrd74

Thanks Cindy.

drllrd74

Thanks Cindy, The time was better because families were close-by, not scattered all over the country. My father's family was in New Hampshire, my mother's, in Vermont, a scant twenty miles apart. I moved to Prescott as my sister lived in Prescott Valley (7 miles) as did my brother. (Also a cousin, m...

Something called Pearl Harbor jarred my mind, when Japan dropped bombs and started war; life back then was different and more kind, except for the fighting we all abhor. I 've photos of my dad from those days, a Marine that they called the old man; he was only 26, and very far away, from the New Eng...

Great tribute to our Lord.

drllrd74

I love you, just as you are, from up close or from afar; you're the person meant for me, all the others, I'll let be. Your eyes and smile are mine, we're lovers of a special kind; in your arms and warm embrace, I find the sunshine of your face. I love you, just because you're you, the love I sought,...

drllrd74

Thanks Seema!

drllrd74

Thanks Seema- Happy Thanks Giving to you!

drllrd74

I give thanks, on this Thanksgiving; for love that's spread, for joy of living; for happiness that lurks nearby, for sweet whispers, and longing sighs; for peace that comes, in little pieces; for love that's kind, and never ceases; for sun and shadow, wind and rain; for songs and laughter, that keep...

drllrd74

Very nice Cindy.

drllrd74

Thanks Cindy.

drllrd74

I'm a stranger on this earth, waiting for the dawn of day; when war, hate and anger, will no longer have a sway. When the curses and the hurt, will be tokens of the past; when love will be fulfilled, and peace and joy will last. I'm a pilgrim on this soil, a soul that longs for God; that patiently a...

I pray for France and all the nations, that one day our peace will be; existing in all lands and people, and war will be but memory. That forgiveness will be given, put away the acts of anger; put away, the deadly force, that puts us all in mortal danger. That love will reign supreme, no matter what...

In the days of stark November, half the day is dark as night; yet the somber shade of shadows, is surpassed by Your great light. In the patterns of Your weather, fall the rain and snow and hail; yet for a day or for a season, the beauty of Your grace prevails. Leaves will die but for the winter, the...

Thanks Cindy

Nice thoughts to live by.

Thanks Seema.

The winter days are drawing closer, when half the day, is dark as night; but for yet for somber shadows, all's surpassed by Your great light. In the patterns of Your weather, comes the snow, the rain and hail; yet for the day and for the season, the glory of Your grace prevails. Leaves will die, but...

drllrd74

Here's the hands of cold November, fading fast are Autumn's charms; I'm reaching out for you, and melting in your arms You envelop me in the night, give my passion back to me; the troubled mind's at rest, things are as they should be. The touch of skin is pleasant, like a balm, it rescues me; we rel...
