"Facebook Friends"

"Facebook Friends"

I look at your status come over my screen
Each update has meaning to me, I have seen
My life has somehow been touched by each post
From those I just met, to the ones I love most

I know that each person has followed a path
That some are so blessed, and some are in wrath
But knowing what’s happening now in your space
Has made my life fuller by seeing your face

A comment, a post, or a joke you do share
And because you include me, it shows me you care
Some of you touched my life so long ago
And others I am blessed as I get better to know

This way of connecting with people and friends
This Facebook thing is not just a trend
It’s a way of maintaining a level of sharing
And reminds me I know that these people I’m caring

I thank you each friend that has stopped by to say
“So what are you going to do with your day?”
I know I am happy to share in your posts
That knowing you’re out there ~no matter which coast

So, I send out my blessings to each FB friend
And hope that our lives can connect till they end
‘Cuz life is a mystery~ to cherish with care
And I want you to know I will always be there!

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
