Long ago and far away
I gave my heart
to love and hope
I still believe though grown
that wondrous things
will come to me!
I feel that if I live with love and hope
and try to do my very best
that a great force
whom I call God
will put his touch
on all the rest!
There have been losses
then came countlees ways
to love and give
affections of so many kinds
inspire every day I live!
I still believe
as I did in my early youth
that living is all growing
and in this I've found
my deepest truth!
I often seek for help in mediation and prayer
for me to know what's best
and my heart overflows with thanks
each night when I come to rest!
I'm glad that you decided to stay and this makes me happy :)
ReplyDeleteLove this one... so true.
living is all growing
and in this I've found
my deepest truth!
I wasnt upset with your post, i was worried that you were upset. I wasnt online much during the weekend and when i checked blogs yesterday, You, DD and Keshi were all sounding stressed out.
You are a sweet and a kind hearted person and this quality reflects in your poetry. Dont let anyone get you down. You rock Margie!.
Take care

I am glad you were not upset with my post, as I thought it seemed you were by what you said on Keshi's blog.... Sorry I misunderstood!

And, I could never be upset if you do not have time to come to my blog!
Just come whenever you can!

I am off work today... and I am so looking forward to a hike in Garden of the Gods! ( It is the most amazing, beautiful place!
You would love it!

Too talented. ..."to love and give affections of so many kinds" ....That has so much depth to it. To me, it says, a love for a family member, a love for a friend, and a love for a significant other. There are so many aspects of love---it's wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI especially enjoyed reading this one.
Thanks!
ah, margie, this is lovely!
ReplyDeleteM... I always wanted to go there (Garden of the Gods). Heard so many wonderful things about it. Never seemed to have time when I would make the trek to Co Spgs for a Sunday sing at Unity. Someday I suppose. Have a fabulous time!
