Four Seasons 

The creator of the Four Seasons I would like to thank
Each one has a different reverence for the way we think

Spring gives us energy with the flurry in the air
Birds building their nests scurrying here and there

Summer is a wonderful time of year
A time to embrace the heat and work with cheer

Fall is a time of transition into winter
Enjoying all the fall colors in their splendor 

Winter is a perfect time for a new start
The glistening snow that  cleans our hearts

So what more perfect life should we desire
Then the Four Seasons that lift our hopes even higher

I Learned about  Living 

I learned to read the Bible
I learned who I was

I learned a little about JESUS and a lot about LOVE

The more I read the more I learned
If I followed HIM I wouldn’t have to burn

I kept my eye on him in the dim light
The closer I got it became so bright

I learned I don’t have to fight anymore
Living for GOD is no real chore

I have complete Happiness within somehow
When I turned and faced HIM here and now

I learned more about JESUS and more about Love
When I read HIS Holy Word sent from Above

Standup 

Stand up all the children of this world
You are being called to carry GOD’S Flag unfurled 

His Celestial  Army is on the move
To Show His Great Love for all to approve 

It’s Now or Never there’s no time to kill
Joining not you will see the gates of Hell

 Grandma

When you were growing up
Did no one seem to care 
Was there just one person, your burdens you could share

Was that person your Grandma, taking time for you
Always being concerned about what you were going to do

Grandma’s are overflowing with love from above 
That’s their calling in life, sharing GOD’S LOVE

 I Lost an Old Friend today

I Lost My Best Friend Today
I had to take just a moment to Pray

They wanted to be with me all the time
I never understood how They could read my mind

They seemed to know when I was sad
They wanted to play when I was glad

Tears I’ve shed out of love
For my Pet that was sent from above

GOD made every Creature here on earth
We couldn’t realize their Real Worth

Since they All came from Heaven Above
That’s where They have returned
To wait our love

Going to Church Somewhere 

Going to church, not sure where it will be
I know wherever I go, GOD is with me

It matters not where you go or where you’ll sing
The HOLY SPIRIT will be there  making your Heart Ring

Going to Church I may know not where,
Just Worshiping my Loving GOD in prayer

Wherever you are when he draws you near
Take time for Church and HIS WORD to hear

The Old Home Place 

Painting by Spike O’Dell W4WGN Brentwood Tennessee
The Old Homeplace
Brings back Memories 
Of yesteryear gone by

Children laughing and playing
Grandma’s cooking
And the warm breezes blowing by

Good Memories are cherished forever
How they make time fly
The Old Home Place sheds  a tear in my eye

The old hound dog that slept on the porch
The squirrels up in the trees
The colorful leaves rustling in the breeze

Good times are never meant to be forgotten 
Only cherished with time gone by

That’s why I’ll always remember
The Old Home Place
Of times gone by
