The End of Summertime

There is a nostalgia feeling when it 

comes to the end of summer.

The end of walking barefoot

and lemonade.

The green grass isn't green anymore.

Time to go back to school and

thinking about the holidays.

An end to a season and the hope

of another year and the beginning

of dreaming of a new summertime.

Communication

I get lonely for the people I love.
I get sad thinking of them sometimes.
I long to communicate with them.
And I do. I do reach out,
I just wish they reach out to me more.

Nature Dreaming

Trees are majestic when they blow in the wind.

Their branches paint the sky. Breathes makes

trees sway back and forth.  I walk among the trees

and I dream of far off places where 

fantasies become real. I long to be out in nature 

where I am free. It's great to talk to God in nature, 

to tell Him how I'm feeling, of my love for Him. 

I'd love to hike in nature with good friends and just

be ourselves, laughing and not a care in the world.

To be honest, I'm not out in nature that much at all and

that makes me sad.

Oh My Heart

How do I stop my heart from missing this one?

I have moved on, but my heart still ache.

I still think of them every day.

I find ways to stop thinking of them,

but it's never for long.

Why are they so deep in my heart?

I wish my feelings would go away,

so it wouldn't hurt so much.

Shock of Death

The shock of death never gets old.

It always leave a fresh feeling that's not good.

I wander about in a daze when I hear

about the loss of someone I know.

The hardest shock of death, I've already

been through. It lasted for months with 

no let up.

I only can say that God saw me through 

every second of that one.

It still brings me to tears when I think of it.

But even so, death is not a total end. And

this is my faith and my belief. I will not

always feel the shock of death, but I 

will in time live on with my God forever.
