Bloom where you are planted
Where no one else can shine
You might ease the troubles that
Are on someone's stressed mind.

Book, Bloom Where You Are
by Carolyn Huffman



I sit and wonder -
Don't have much time
Want to give my all but
Your love is not mine
Love is lost in the blink of an eye.

Master of the hunt, he slyly thinks,
Of doe or buck, he cannot say.
The prey spies him, it quietly slinks,
Game won't be his, no trophy day.

Book, Master Of The Game
by Sidyney Sheldon



One is a lonely number,
Day makes the sun shine bright.
At home where the we burn our lumber on
A cold night when the sky is dark and
Time goes faster than light.

Song, One Day At A Time



The sunken eyes of tortured souls
Grapes gathered by trembling hands,
Of those left behind who missed the dole;
Wrath of God be our command.

A time in life
Walk through the flowers
To take a little break
Remember where you came from

Movie, A Walk To Remember



Night falls slowly
At the end of day
The world is an attraction
Museum of life’s game

Movie, Night At The Museum



Faith is my stronghold
Of this I am sure
A day at a time
Child of the Saviour.

Song, Faith Of A Child
by Bill Miller



Awaken to a sunny day

Walk outside and lets go play
A bouncing ball
Laughing Kids
Kicking footballs and playing on swings

Tip-toeing through the meadows
Our imaginations running wild

Running around and having fun
Excitement starts when the ice-cream man comes
Mates playing games together
Everyone together oh its fun!
Memories made on a summers day
Best friends laughing, secrets told
Everyone parting late to get home
Remember the day as they sleep the night away.

Movie, A Walk To Remember



Seeing Beauty Everywhere
Without Missing Anything
Oh The Crisp Fall Air
Really Being Warm Against The Zing
Nestled Down Close To The Fire

The Crackle Of The Wood
Oh Cedar Smells So Good

Sipping Hot Chocolate Reading A Good Book
In Every Way I Get A Good Look
Liking The Story Of The Amish
Eventhough To This Day I Am Still Astonished
Nevertheless It Was Just A Story
Changing My Mind In Their True Glory
Even The Amish Are People Who Need To Be Treated As Equal
