TO BELIEVE

To Believe

I awaken suddenly
To this fresh smell of tweed
It's how I would picture you going to read,
And teach all the students so knowledgeably

Your friendship- has blessed my life by God's word
So much that you push me to feel self assured
Although we've only met one dreary morn
Your spirit touched my life which was torn

You are smart in so many ways
But you go far beyond what's in your days
You are loyal, gifted and faithful. I say
So here is my gift to you this day.

I'm sure the lives you touch
With your knowledge, faith- so much
How can I help the way I feel?
When I know that God made you real

And my heart can feel as it does
For I know what I see because
Of hours of time just chatting ever
I met a friend I hope forever

Life has blessed me- yes it did
Thank you God...for this friend I cannot rid
Thank you so, you've touched my life
You taught me that I need not strife

That God does not make junk, tell me more
Can I ever forget that you taught me to soar
Now and forever, my friend, can't you see
Each day brings me memories of what you've taught me.

DAYBREAK

In the stillness of the morning I think about my day Put my thoughts and words together And to Jesus I do pray Before I turn the lights on Put the coffee on to brew I ask the Lord to guide me, What he’d like to see me do To make this world a better place To help my fellow man He put me here to do these things I know this is His plan As the sun begins to rise I feel joy within my heart Having Jesus there to light my way He can show me where to start.

Can It Change??

Can It Change? I gotta ask you what’s going on And wonder why this split has upon Come to our world~unrest and war Did all this start a long time before? In1776 a contract wrote Would give us all the right to vote And stand a nation so delighted But, if that’s so, why are we not UNITED? Our leader some decisions make May sometimes be a sad mistake But as a nation, can we be UNITED in our LIBERTY? We lose our job, our house, we strife Can’t we be thankful we have LIFE? Is greed consuming heart and mind That people have become unkind? A Pollyanna I am not If you think I care about what I’ve got ‘Cause life is more than money or things We’re materialistic marionettes on strings My friends cannot come home from this war Because more battles they’re needed there for But we complain about our fancy cars While war has someone’s child behind bars Can we UNITE as this country planned? Can we do what’s right and take a stand? Can we share

Oh, Gentle Heart

Oh, Gentle Heart When I looked into your eyes That Monday back in May I saw the stars that light your soul That very special day. I saw each chance as special Each chance you took me to That place where I could be myself And feel so peaceful next to you. As days passed by my heart would flutter At the thought I’d see your face I longed to see those stars again To journey to that place. Your gentle nature touched my heart It left me wanting more To open up your soul to me Was something to adore. I consider myself so lucky That you’ve touched my heart so deep I will treasure you in the palm of my hand Even when I sleep! Vickie Skowronski ~Copyright 1998
