Looking up toward the mountain there,
And in the valley deep down below,
Sheaths of Diamonds glimmering everywhere,
From the night of freezing, sleet and snow.
T"was truly a winter wonderland,
As the sun shone upon the scene,
The beauty held me captive, as a prisoner in hand,
For such a wondrous sight I'd never seen.
It warmed the heart inside of me,
Even after the sunlight, slowly began to fall,
For in the brightness of the moonlight, I could see,
The glimmering, winter garden, wasn't gone at all.
I laughed once again in remembering the time
Of better days and joy that was mine
The breeze had brought softly a sweet memory
When happiness belonged to just you and me.
Your youth had carried me on in my years
Your smile had lifted me out of my tears
In words are not the meaning I say
So hard to find what I think of that day.
And as the flower of my age starts to pass
The wind of memory forever will last
These days I know were so good to me
And in these winds I will always see.
If nothing in life can bring me a smile
I can feel the breeze of this wind for awhile
It comes at even times I don't choose
Bound softly in my heart I can't loose.
So now I thank the Lord up above
He blessed me with the touch of your love
I knew what no one else now can't know
A wind of love that forever will blow.
I am trying to write this poem today,
and it's very hard.
Brothers and friends of mine,
have gone to meet the Lord.
They always enjoyed life, and never
wore a frown.
The families that loved them, say
they were fun to be around.
Today the Gates of Heaven opened.
for them to go inside.
Knowing they was standing there,
with hearts full of pride.
They left us in the Early Fall,
now in Heaven they abide.
But someday there in Heaven,
We'll be standing at their side.
We cried so hard the day they left.
Our hearts were full of hate.
But God asked us to please forgive,
"He" will avenge their fate.
God bless us all!
Our flag is the symbol of this favored land
Its colors are red white and blue
It represents courage of those who would stand
And would die to protect me and you.
The bars of the flag that are beautifully white
Stands for innocence and purity.
While red is for valor against those we fight
And the blue is for Justice we see.
The stars are assembled on background of blue
They represent stars in the sky
Together these symbols remind me and you
That divine goals are why we should try.
When counted these stars number fifty you know
They represent states in our land
And "In God we Trust" is our motto we show
While together we always will stand.
