Sweet Rock-A-Bye
~*Marge Tindal*~


Rock-a-bye
Sweet tears are falling
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye~

Rock-a-bye
Heartbreak is calling
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye~

Letting go seems so hard
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye
Give it up to the Lord
Rock-a-bye ... sweet rock-a-bye~

No more teardrops can I shed
Rock-a-bye ... rock-a-bye
I must hand it to Him instead
Rock-a-bye ... sweet rock-a-bye~

His hand keeps me steady
Rock-a-bye ... oh, rock-a-bye
Ever there, He stands the ready
to rock-a-bye me home
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye
Rock-a-bye me home~



~On this day, I have a full plate of sorrow~
This one is poetically sung for my longtime, dearest friend, Bonnie Smiley Durham,
who lost her dear mother last evening and for my longtime dearest friend, Patricia Barr, who was placed in an Alzheimer's care unit yesterday~

~*No matter what I search for ...
let me know when it is LOVE that I find*~ <))><

Marge/sis

A beautiful and comforting song you sing.  I'm sorry about your friends...sometimes life is so hard.

Sometimes when it seems life is just too much to bear,
the best thing is to give it up to Him.
Sending comforting hugs your way Marge.

Although this is filled with sorrow, it comforts me to know that in times of sadness your poetic spirit blazes forth. *HuGS dear lady.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Dear Marge:  So sorry to hear about the new sorrows in your life. We couldn't get through these difficult times, without God in our lives! May you be comforted!

I am so sorry to hear of these sad tidings.
May the Lord lift your spirit & give you strength at this time.

Seeing the sadness of others is often sadder than our own.  Well written.  Ken

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

Awwww Marge, I am so sorry for your sorrow. You know, where I work, I work in the alzheimers unit. To me, they are very special people. Wish I was there, I would take care of your friend with great compassionate care.
