The warmth of the sunshine.
Listening to the windchimes

The moon shining so bright.
On a beautiful star filled night.

Seeing a seed grow into a flower.
Being outside during a rain shower.

Being married thirty four years to the same man.
Remembering the day I got my wedding band.

Holding my son for the first time.
So thankful to God he was mine.

Watching my son become grown.
Now married with a son of his own.

Looking at my parents now married over fifty years.
Thinking of their love and all their tears.

Seeing my brother pass away.
Too soon God took him to heaven to stay.

Loving my friends that I hold so dear.
Knowing if I need them they will be here.

Thinking of my life in the past and today.
I have cried some tears along the way.

Some problems that had to be worked out.
But my life has been blessed there is`nt any doubt.
