Anniversary 1
May your Special Day
Be a celebration
Of where you've been,
Where you are, and
How you are growing
Together in the Lord.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY !!!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
I can't imagine my life without you.
To you I want to forever be true.
You pick me up whenever I am down,
Lifting my spirit (removing the frown).
You pull me away from my many chores,
Making sure my life is more than a bore ...
Supporting me and encouraging, too,
Making tasks easy in all that I do.
I miss you greatly when you are away.
It's you by my side - a comforting stay.
I'm looking forward, as we grow old ...
May we forever our hands still to hold.
Joyce C. Lock
ANNIVERSARY 2
Thank you Lord, for our marriage
Like a Wedding band, our love encircles
but does not bind. Like our vows,
our love is words but sustains because
of what they mean. In your grace, our
love has the permanence of rock, not of
walls, but of a bridge to moments ahead as
special and bright as when we first met.
I Appreciate You!
I may not say, "Thank you," often enough
for all the Thoughtful Things you do,
But I Hope you Know
I really Appreciate You!
Joyce C. Lock

Easter
We are celebrating today, O God, a mixture of bunnies hiding colored
eggs and angels rolling away stones. Join us as we gather to share the
enjoyment of one and giving thanks for the other. Remind us Lord, as
we're caught up in well-worn traditions, and during this season of
spring and rebirth, that we understand what this day is really about.
FALL
Leaves fall gently to the ground
and make a forest bed,
while geese are forming perfect V's
as they fly overhead.
The nights are growing colder,
but days are sunny-bright,
and soon the winter snows will fall
to youngster's sheer delight!

Cowboy's Heart
Ther's a feeling deep in a cowboy's heart,
No matter how times may change,
That binds him fast to a world apart,
The world of the western range!
Snowfalls Snow falls over the trees,
Still and calm is the sea,
There is a hush o'er the land,
Christmas is almost at hand,
Peace alone reigns supreme,
Like in some wondrous dream,
You feel like newborn so grand,
Christmas is almost at hand, The Arrival
Little fingers curl up tight to make a tiny fist,
As fairy lips purse out as if to make a gentle kiss. . .
Eyes, wide as a kitten's, and little button nose,
You look like someone's angel--down to your pudgy toes. . .
Although you are so wrinkled and your face is still so pale,
And the only song you seem to know sounds like a shrilling wail,
When you are here before me, finally, I feel complete.
I've waited so long, sweetheart. . . at last, we finally meet.

Freedom
Let Freedom Ring from rooftops,
and o'er the mighty land,
and never take for granted
the life of any man,
who fought and gave his future,
for the likes of you and me,
to save his homeland's honor,
and the right of liberty.
Written by Tamara Hillman

Halloween
It's big, it's broad...
It's broad, it's bright...
It fills the sky of All Hallows' Night...
The strangest sight you've ever seen.
The Monster Tree on Halloween.
Irish Blessing Near a misty stream in Ireland in the hollow of
a tree
Live mystical, magical leprechauns
who are clever as can be
With their pointed ears, and turned up toes and little coats of green
The leprechauns busily make their shoes and try hard not to be seen.
Only those who really believe have seen these little elves
And if we are all believers
We can surely see for ourselves.
(Irish Blessing)
Enjoy Life If we are ever to enjoy life,
now is the time. Today should
always be our most wonderful
day.
Slow down and enjoy life. It's
not only the scenery you miss
by going too fast - you also
miss the sense of where you are
going and why.
It is not how much we have, but
how much we enjoy, that makes
happiness.
Life Is Yours Life is Yours
Believe in yourself,
Take the Power to choose
what you want to do,
and do it well.
Recipe
" I have a little recipe that isn't hard to make
But you must always start as soon as you awake.
Take a great big mixing bowl and fill it with a smile
Mix half a cup of sunshine with good deeds to last a while.
Add a pinch of work and play, a pinch of thoughtfulness and care
But don't bake it in the oven, just spread it around everywhere."
Someone Cares
When someone cares
It is easier to speak
It is easier to listen
It is easier to play
It is easier to work,
When someone cares
It is easier to laugh.
Toast for You
May you never lose a stirrup,
May you never waste a loop;
May your can stay full of syrup,
An' your gizzard full of whoop!
Father One night a father overheard his son pray: Dear God,
Make me the kind of man my Daddy is. Later that night, the Father
prayed, Dear God, Make me the kind of man my son wants me to be.

Long Ago
Winds through the olive trees softly did blow...
Round little Bethlehem long, long ago...
Sheep on the hillside lay, whiter than snow;
Shepherds were watching them, long, long ago...
Then from the happy sky, Angels bent low,
Singing their songs of joy, long, long ago...
For in a manger bed, cradled we know,
Christ came to Bethlehem, long, long ago...
LoveI want you to be happy.
I want to fill your heart
with feelings of wonder.
I want you to be full of
courage and hope.
I want you to have the type
of friendship that is a
treasure. To find the
kind of love that is
beautiful forever. I wish
you contentment: the sweet,
quiet, inner kind that
comes around and never
goes away.
Of all the things I'll be
wishing for, wherever I am
and whatever I do. There will
never be a day in my life
when I won't be wishing I were
with you.
Love Is Love is for Always
Candy is Gone with Eating.
Flowers are Replaced with New.
But, Love is for Always ...
Like Me and You!
by Joyce C. Lock
If I Love You
If I love you with a love that won't die,
Will you love me in the sweet by and by?
If I love you with all of my life,
Will you love me in spite of the strife?
If I love you be it poor or with riches,
Will you love me enough to do the dishes?
If I love you come rain or come shine,
Will you love me and always be mine?
by Joyce C. Lock
Mother God made a wonderful mother,
A mother who never grows old;
He made her smile of the sunshine,
And He molded her heart of pure gold;
In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks fair roses you see;
God made a wonderful mother,
And He gave that dear mother to me.
A Mother
When you're a child she walks before you,
To set an example.
When you're a teenager she walks behind you
To be there should you need her.
When you're an adult she walks beside you
So that as two friends you can enjoy life together..
You're My Friend
You're
My friend
My companion.
Through good times and bad
My friend
My buddy
Through happy and sad
Beside me you stand
Beside me you walk
You're there to listen
You're there to talk
With happiness
with smiles
With pain and tears
I know you'll be there, throughout the years!.. Cowboy Rules
For them ol' tie-fast cowboys,
Here is a rule that fits:
Whatever you get your rope on,
It's yours---or else you're it's!
Soul Mate
A Soul Mate is someone to whom we
feel profoundly connected, as though the
communicating that takes place between us
were not the product of intentional efforts,
but rather a divine grace. This kind
of relationship is so important to the soul
that many have said there is nothing more,
precious in life. Two Gifts
I must tell you something
God placed within my view -
Were it not for Jesus,
I would not have met you.
I've been given two gifts;
A Special blessing, true.
First God gave me Jesus
And then He gave me you.
