Daughter Returns



DAUGHTER RETURNS

In the depths of my heart
a murmur took up the beat
as a glow of love began to heat,
and fill my being with anticipation
that once again I would see
the sight of her so pleasing to me.
A void existing so deep
within the recesses of my soul
filled quickly, and once again I felt whole.
My Darling Daughter came in focus
and tears of joy cleared my sight
as her aura began to light
around her for all to see.
I love you sweetheart, you are everything to me.
Though I know the inevitable will come true,
I'll cherish this time my Darling Daughter with you

LOVE DAD

Lonnie D Chevrie Sr

So, you want to know about me huh? Okay, just remember you asked for it. I love life, people, and animals, and oh yes plants-they help us breath you know. Me, I am fun loving, amicable to most, and love to tell jokes, drink, eat, laugh, share, care, feel, emote, relate, and try not to judge. I hate phonies, braggarts, blowhards, know-it-Alls, mean spirited people, liars, thieves of material, or hearts, and bigots. When I was young I loved to fish,and hunt, but now in my Autumn years I love to look, and enjoy nature. I love to smell, taste, and listen, as well as touch, and see the wonders of our planet in harmony with itself. I am a simple person with no agenda, and only want to get along with my fellow human beings. I love music, movies, good wines, fine dining, family. I enjoy interacting with the INTERNET, and have a Web Site. I love pig whimsy, and tried to share it with visitors along with some writings that reflect real life experiences. You can see my "Site" by going to: http://d21c.com/pygman/​Pigs-and-Poets.html I am a retired USAF MSGT of 20 years, and was fortunate enough to experience other cultures from east to west. I thank my lucky stars that my life has been blessed with these experiences and only wish that others could be a fortunate. It is remarkable to look back on my Military experience and to realize that there are some of us out there that never leave our home town, city, State, etc; So that is me in brief, no different than most of y'all. My favorite saying is: You can judge a persons character by the way they treat people that they don't need. How true, and I do believe in the "Golden Rule". more…
