You don’t capture a snarling dog with a whip and rocks We need to realize that the old dog has had many hard knocks You lure him in, with something he likes. He may take the bate even if he wants to bite Trust will come after many many days It has to do with forgetting the old ways When Love shows up after trust is gained He will never again, have to be restrained.

Free as a bird that’s how I feel today Oh the freedom I feel can’t be explained away Freedom to Worship Freedom to pray Freedom to do all good things today True Freedom comes from GOD above That’s the only place to find true love Worldly love only lasts for a short span of time That’s why we should rely on GODS LOVE all the time June 22, 2022 Mark Waldrop
The Painted Bunting is such a beautiful bird His colors are of the rainbow mark my word His colors are bright red, yellow, and blue Shimmering in sunlight their brilliance shines through He sings such a harmonious happy song Howdy-do, Howdy-do, Howdy-do all day long GOD’S Creation no more Glorious than he Knowing GOD sent him for just you and me July 18, 2022 Mark Waldrop Written especially for Grandma “Diane” Waldrop Moncks Corner, South Carolina
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 July 12, 2022 Mark Waldrop
I had an old boxer named Joy I loved to feed her And watch her play with her toy We would run and play And be exhausted At the end of the day She loved to sleep beside my bed I felt protected From toe to head We both grew older She could no longer stand I had to let her go To be in God’s hand June 11, 2022 Mark Waldrop
Mama died We all cried Daddy said Don’t worry I will be by your side I will take care of you every day We will swim have fun and play When you’re tired You can rest on my back I will protect you night and day Until you are grown and paddle away
I’m just a Bunny in the snow It’s very cold out you know I can’t wait for Easter to get here I know it comes every Year It’s much warmer then I can deliver Candy again The little Kids can’t wait for me They shout and are full of glee I’ll come hopping down the Bunny Trail With lots of Candy in my pail All the Children dressed in their Easter Best Will so Surely be Blessed
I’m just a little Turtle I’m a funny-looking thing I’m looking for my Mama I have lost her again I’m not worried It’s happened before She might even be up on shore She won’t let me get too far away Even when I wonder and play She loves me very much God made Mothers that way Always protecting their Children Night and Day
Where is LOVE found Maybe it’s at the Animal Shelter just outside Town They have Dogs, Cats, and all kinds of Critters there Just waiting to share your Love just because you Care
I saw a bird sitting in a tree Chirping and praising God with glee It flew off I know not where One thing for sure I know it’s still singing and praising God there July 17, 2021
