It’s all been out there through the Ages
If only when We Believe in HIM and Trust
It’s all been out there for the Healing
If Only Our Faith We Trust
GOD’S Love is out there through the Ages
If in HIS SON We will only Trust and Obey
GOD’S Wisdom and Glory will be with us
If only We Ask and Believe
HE will walk with Us through Eternity
If only we ask and receive
GOD is So Great and So Good
HE will Never be Understood
Sometimes my Nose just itches deep inside
I have to go in there and pull a bugger aside
It’s not very pleasant for you to see
That’s why I try to hide
That’s just between you and me
Once in a while, I see a little blood
That does turn my stomach
It looks much like red mud
I was told not to when I was a little boy
But it brought me such great joy
So today when I Pick
I just bow my head
And try not to flick

Written Specially for My Friend
Stephen Mark Daniluk K8SMD
The embalming room is a strange topic of conversation.
Many hours of toil will bring much perspiration.
Proficiency in training is required to accomplish such a task.
How do l make them look so lifelike? The family would ask.
There is a skill to everything I’ve been told.
The compliments of the family are worth more than gold.
With all the bad things that can come the embalmer's way,
a whole lot of patience and a little water go a long way.
The embalmer is a combination
surgeon and artist, I must say.
I am working extremely hard while keeping my emotions at bay.
It takes a particular person with a Devine calling to succeed in this field.
After many hours of service, numerous rewards I will yield.
I am satisfied with the accomplishments that I cannot measure.
I can only feel it in my heart, which brings great pleasure.
