Clouds burst with swirling soft crevices
sunrise blending gliding lingering with oak trees
\I feel tomorrow's reality
pure desire lured with perception
peeking through silence craving vision I wake
\Harmony in the soul guards the lost mind into submersion
Yet, sight found will quench deep gnarled wind
Taunted I dance free my joy and laugh
I live in me

softly as children's breathing
unborn stars float seductively
deeper through dusk to darkness
gently from underlying night decends love
from within soft eyes delicately piercing
burning flames hissing crimson blue violet
shining feverishly under a mist
dawns darkness

A year ago I sat beside your bed
I asked if I could brush your hair
Or get a pillow for your head
I had to lean in close to hear
What it was you said
You were tired and in so much pain
Yet you were worried about me
I had so much to learn from you
I was blind I did not see
We were sisters you and I
Different from the start
I always think of how we fought
And it really breaks my heart
I know that your ok now
No more pain and tears
I only wish that we had not
wasted all those years

I commend the strength
you are showing
In time when your hurting
so much
you can't shut out ones who love you
lean on them they are your crutch
being silent is not always the answer sometimes you need to let go
understand this for all that its meaning
speak they will listen I know
sometimes its harder to say nothing
to the one's who love you the most
they are hurting as you are
they share your pain your greif and your ghosts
take time together to heal and to mend
let love guide you through the steps
nothing is closer then family who has laughed and loved and yes wept

I can not find the word goodbye
It's not ment to be said aloud
Another from my family
God wants among the clouds
I'm sure he knows the pain we have
When things like this take part
If only I could find a way to
Stop the aching in my heart
I have tried in many ways
To tell you that I care
And wish that you could forgive me
For when I wasn't there
I can not say I'm sorry for
All our troubled times
That would be unfair of me
you would know that I was lying
I do how ever love you
for all that it is worth
Maybe God will forgive me
and leave you here on earth

You are a mother now yourself
The bond can not be lost
You now know what it means to protect
No matter what the cost
I hoped that someday you would bring
A child into this world
To love with every ounce of breath
As if it were your last
Enjoy her while she is so small
For she will soon grow up
And no matter how hard you pray
She will move on out in the world
She will not always need you
Much to your dismay
But she will call upon you
When things are in disaray
Be there when she is crying
And laughing somedays too
Just let her know you love her
That's all a mother can do

snow flakes fell from up above
landing on the earth
to cover up what was left from fall
the leaves, the grass,and dirt
they played upon the angels breath and
danced on their way down
some even seemed to disappear
before they touched the ground
i know that you were watching
from somewhere up above
this was your way of blanketing us
with your undying love
and as we watch the snow flakes dance
and look up towards the sky
its just another way for us to know
you haven't said good bye
one more way to keep you close
and safe with in our hearts
as we know all Gods creations
return to him from earth

The cries of help
have now all stopped
all that remains is ash
no one knows what the furture holds
how we all long for the past
\ We watch and listen
for things that aren't right
staying constantly on our guard
there are many of us
who won't travel far
our children we keep to our yards
\ This is America
we are supposed to be free
to travel and live as we choose
This is America
the home of the brave
in a war that we will not lose

This day will not be forgotten
nor will the lives that were lost
as americans we will stick together

I can still see grass grow
play with bird's here in the sky
I can turn the star's on at night
when the sunshine wave's goodbye
I also bring the raindrops that
make the flowers bloom
The shadows and the songs you hear
is love left in the rooms
You hear me walk along with you
so you never are alone
I say to you don't cry for me
see God has brought me home
