Time Wasted

So many times we hurry

and don't take the time to care,

When others feel so lonely,

and just need a simple prayer,

It's easy to say "I LOVE YOU"

and hope you have a nice day.

is there something I can do for you,

I'll be glad to stop and pray"

Love of Heart

The greatest treasure on this earth

That God has willed to be

Is just the gift of love of heart

He gave to you and me

For, in this gift, He sowed the seeds

To harvest goals in Life

That will fulfill us with content

And give us strength, in strife.

It is a treasure, meant to be

A bond of sacred tie

To bless upon us joys of life

Until the day we die

And by his Grace to light the way

To peace of heart and mind

That is the goal of every soul,

Above all other kind.

A Smile and Prayer

A Smile and Prayer

Like the brightness of the flowers

At the opening of day,

Let a smile erase the showers

That at times may come our way.

Like the nodding of the flowers

When the twilight shadows fall,

Let prayer touch evening hours,

Bringing perfect peace to all.
