DEVILS WIND
Rain falls softly on the window sill
Flashes of lightning down empty streets
Sound of thunder in the distance
Water dripping slowly down
Wind picking up howling through the night
Storm moving behind brilliant flashes of light
Breaking branches that fall to the ground
Mother natures provincial frown
Sound of terror upon the wind
Perfect tornado begins downward spin
Trash clutttered landscapes where houses had been
Dreams destroyed forever by the downward spin
Reaperless scythe at work in the land
People without shelter coldness of the wind
Loved ones never to live again
So we prepare to say good bye to friends
WHat we lost to a evil wind
Pick up the pieces and move on again
Rebuilding lives under blue skies
Remembering the southern winds
That spawned the devils wind

REASON FOR THE SEASON
Glimmering distances beyond cold wet snow
Fills the valleys and elevations below
Cascades of snow upon the winds
Dim reminder of cold days ahead
In the city of David a child was born
Two thousand years ago without sin
For the salvation of all who come after
This child in beggars rags in a stable
Three wise men followed the brightest star
To a manger only fit for animals
But yet the son of man was born
Whos devotion would stand
Till the end of time
Three wise men presented gifts
And knelt to pray
Not fully knowing the future
This child would play
Into the hearts of multitudes
Even unto this day
But only a child in this manger
Does he lay
So I say to each and everyone of you
May the love of that child shine through
Lift up your hearts and your prayers
Bless all of you this holiday season
Love is the reason we worship Jesus
During this holiday season
For the life he did give
So eternally we shall all live
So the brotherhood of man may endure
Trials and tribulations we must go through
We celebrate the birth of our lord
All the year through AMEN

LAURA
(Dedicated to Laura Bush)
So far it becomes from lifes intended paths
Slowly we become what we are destined to be
Unassuming smile from a librarian from the deep south
Stole a mans heart away
What visions of the future did she see
Quiet life under Texas trees
Where birds sing quietly in the breeze
Rolling meadows of flowers sweet fragrance
Laura your life was meant for greater things
First lady of texas
A grace few have seen
You now take center stage
Thrust into national spotlight of politics
Soon your husband becomes president
The day now comes
where your causes will be justified
Speak your convictions of education for all
This day is like no other we have known
Who could have imagined
The lengths the terrorists would go
Twin towers lie in ruin,Pentagon smoking and on fire
The heroics of an american jet
who willingly gave their lives
In a Pennsylvania field
Capitol dome might have felled
And destroyed all within
Remember you as america does
Standing firm and proud
With determination in your eyes
Comforting the millions watching on
Pain and anguish clear upon your face
On that dark and terrible September day
I saw something much more
Love for all your fellows americans just been slain
Rememberance in your heart
Of what families must bear
Grief of Terrible loss that seemed to be everywhere
At that moment I knew you were different
Love for country and all who dwell by gods will
A noble first lady to be proud of
Who brought back class to Pennsylvania Avenue
As americans we can only love her for that
