You & Me

IF there ever would be an us just take a chance.

Without saying goodbye

You said hello, easily and effortlessly You ended it expressionlessly

KEEP

YOU ARE THE ONE...
I GIVE MY HEART TO KEEP
TO NEVER LET OUT OF SIGHT
TO HOLD ON VERY TIGHT!

MY BED

As I labor over 

assembling my bed

my hand caresses that

600 count thread
I remember and I miss you 

and with that being said

I wish I could kiss you
on this heavenly bed!

"My Bed" RS2012

THANK YOU

That day

I was going to work

my weather was gray

my boss

being a jerk!

I get a phone call

Micheline

who is that?

Some mystical being,

I am sure

you can bet!

and then.....

Books here

and binders there

our backs hurt from sitting

I swear!

Information overload

and

teaching us a bunch of stuff

when does that woman realize

enough is enough!

These last weeks have been

really hard

away from our kids

and loved ones

being apart

Michelene,

what an 

amazing journey 

this has been!

We thank you

from the bottom

of our heart

without you

   really

we would not be

this smart!

You brought us together

and this bond we have formed

will last forever!

           "Thank you" RS2012

Always

With tears in your eyes 

knowing, your heart quietly cries

I stand by and solemnly watch 

as you place him with a gentle touch

and say good bye this final time.

With tears in my eyes 

my heart quietly cries 

for you my son 

and how hard it must be

to loose your best friend 

thinking your heart will never mend

thinking your life came to an end.

I love you 

son of mine

and know over time

your heart will mend

and you will remember your friend 

always!

"Mister" RS 2012

After posting this I realized I had to clarify this. Thomas's cat of 7 years passed away last night. His name was Mister, he was an American longhair.  We, a bunch of animal lovers had found him at Smith's in Glendale. After a great debate we decided that  I was to take his to the Humane society on my way home. Needless to say he never made it there. He was a curious, loving cat and everyone, even non cat lovers were drawn to him. He was one of our family. He is greatly missed!

For granted

You

once were enchanted

now why

do you take me for granted?

Once

we almost dated

now why

do I feel almost hated? 

Once

I felt blessed

now why

do I feel distressed?

Once

isn't it pathetic

my heart was attracted to

you almost magnetic.
