I have seen faded eyes
I've touched the lifeless hand
Of a precious passing love one
It was hard to understand

But the only thought that cheered me
and helped to see me through
is
We'll shake hands in that land
where all things are new
Where the withered flowers bloom again
In the garden of God
We'll walk together hand in hand
Where feet have never trod

I have a precious father
he's been a great man
Time has dimmed his vision
and put a trembling in his hand
When his foot steps falter
I keep this thought in view
That we'll shake hands in that land
Where all things are New


~Inspired by Tiff's  "I Hold Your hand"~

This Is Not Here

How do I know where to go when I don't know which way I'm facing

Well done here moe.....I really enjoyed this, and yes....it's always an honor to inspire somebody, so tiff should get some credit on this one..hehe.
Well done though.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
