I won! 'They also cast lots, just as their brothers the descendants of Aaron did, in the presence of King David and of Zadok, Ahimelech, and the heads of families of the priests and of the Levites. The families of the oldest brother were treated the same as those of the youngest." NIV 1 Chronicles 24:31 Come friend along my merry, merry way As I sing a little sweet song for you today? Send you a shining glow of my rainbow Glowing sweet rays of brightness in my sky, at play, I won a ton in my grandson, God's way He is the biggest pot I ever got, I say! He's my biggest doll, always makes me smile Sweetest confection in my collection, any day. To think that loving gambling is all bad Is losing one sweet joy I never had, no way! Come friend along my merry, merry way As I sing a little sweet song for you today? I bet on his grandfather. I won! He's the one who gave me my grandson.

Newell,I can tell you been reading about me.My grandson and son are the greatest joys of my life.I have about a 100 dolls.I think that is because when I was young we were too poor for me to get dolls.I do love to gamble I have to say.We go to Cherokee every 3 months to gamble.We save our money up just to go to the mountains.I did so much enjoy this poem.Thank you my dear sweet friend!

Newell...this is fantastic. Juanita is a very dear friend of mine, and I can see that this poem reaches right into her soul. Her son Stevie (Sodpossum) and her grandson, Chase (Stevie's son) are her greatest prizes. The poem is also very well written! copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

Thank you, Madame, for you informative response. There are so very many beautiful people on this site, I kind of believe it may be strategically located somewhere in the Kingdom of God space on the internet. Notice that I did not say Christian. Of course I love Christians, but Christ did not call anyone a Christian. It was man who invented that label. I simply love all of God's work. People, animals, plants, and all other life, too. And all of life's spirit residue. (mass) It all has a purpose. And I believe that spirit play is a wonderful gift from God. Shall we play? I want to go fishing.
