| LOVE LOST The love I wanted was not meant to be My heart so filled with love it failed to see I could hear his heart beating so close to mine He's eyes so blue, but mine were blind I remember his kisses, his soft gentle touch and when he smiled, the sky opened up My heart still yearns for him so very much Time marches on and the years have passed Yet, my heart still beats for him til the very last I only have memories, that's all I have left And it is the memories that will remain until death I often wonder, do I ever cross his mind, or have the memories marched on, as did with time Does he ever see my face in a crowd, and want to shout my name aloud I don't know all of the answers, I only know me and this love will last to eternity |

I Walk a Gentler Walk I walk a gentler walk On a road of many miles I traveled down paths of flowers with seed Traveled down paths grown up in weeds They signify the good times and the bad That this journey through life isn�t all that bad I�ve memories of gentle breezes that brushed across my face Of laughter and tears and of God�s wonderful grace I�ve walked upon gravel, stone, and sand Only to find, he never let go of my hand He carried me when I was too weak to breathe He held me close and said he would never leave We traveled down those paths of flowers and weeds He held my hand, he touched my face He saved me with his wonderful grace No, life isn�t all that bad He brings me joy when I am sad He lightens my load of burdens and woe He brings me peace, he�s within my soul Peace that lasts throughout time Peace to travel through this life of mine Until that day when I look upon his face I know life was given to me by his wonderful grace Copyright � Patricia Crosby |
| Faith of Our Father
If I could take back all of the heartache If I could take back all of the pain Would your life be fulfilling or would it be in vain I died upon the cross for you Your soul I wanted to save To give you eternal life, in a place I now remain Can you give me one second in time Can you raise your voice in praise Can you give thanks to the Father, the Son, and Holy Ghost Or will you stand there feeling empty and unafraid to boast Someday I'll return to you upon a cloud of white I'll shout the praises of Zion and fight the devil�s fight And when the battle is over and the saints have victory I'll stand at the gates of Heaven My arms outstretched to thee When our Father speaks to our heart it is always a blessing. But is our heart ready to receive those blessings or are we ashamed. |
| All of us have had at least one true wish. This poem represents all of the wishes in my heart for the one I love. One Wish If I could have but one wish it would be To be in your arms until eternity To lie beside you and rest in your arms knowing I�m safe and where I belong I would wish for happiness each and every day For laughter and joy along the way I would wish for strength in the good times and bad Make sure we were strong and gave it all we had I would wish for contentment throughout our lives And a deep, true love strong enough to survive I would wish for peace and harmony and for an everlasting love for eternity I would pray for blessings from above and always give thanks for our love I would wish to be with you forever more To love you and protect you until we reached that final shore Copyright � Patricia Crosby |
