I love you, you know I do

I will listen to you cry,
While thinking of what to say,
Wracking my heart for a piece,
To take your pain away.
I don't understand at all,
What you're going through,
I know that God has a plan,
But I can't tell this to you.
I think it will make you mad,
Even though that truth you know.
You want another answer.
Your anger at Him shows.
How could He be the God of love,
When He let her die?
I don't know the answer to that,
But I know it's ok to cry.

I am a Snowflake Hidden

Inside a glittering drop of rain.
I am a vessel of God's love,
Trapped in a casket of pain.
I am out-going and noisy,
When I am all alone.
I'll talk for hours on end,
When no one else is home.
I am truly blessed to be,
And grateful for each step I take,
And wish my lips would smile,
When you see me, for your sake.
If you look a little deeper,
Maybe, maybe you will see,
That my heart is filled with joy,
And my eyes know how to see.
I am multi-faceted,
With a smooth outside shell
That's clear, and if you look through it,
All this you'll be able to tell.

An Explanation for my Lonliness

I refuse to choose between you
so instead I sit alone.
We will see if you love to fight
more that sitting with me.
That's how you're acting
childish and petty.
I miss you.
I really do, but you
mean no more to me
than she does.
You need to know
that I will not make the choice.
I will not give you my approval
for hating my friend.

nothing fancy please

I want a white dress
to twirl in
one that will let me spin around
it doesn't need to be silky
it need not have lace
nothing expensive is necessary
nothing fancy and rich
simple cotton will do
very nicely in fact
light weight preferred
it can have sleeves
or not,
but please not in between
or maybe two would be nice
one of each
one for the warm days
to twirl barefoot
in soft green grass
or in a field of flowers
and one for the cold days
with white boots, (or skates)
mittens, and a hat to match
I want a white dress
to twirl in

Winter is my favorite season

I love how the cold
draws people together,
inside, around a fire.
I love how the snow
is so clean and the air
is so fresh and crisp.
I look forward to bundling up
in fluffy, furry winter coats.
I giggle at the hats
that make it hard to hear,
but it is better to not hear
for now than for forever.
I love snow angels and snow men.
I love sledding and skiing.
I love the smell of the cookies
waiting inside, the pie
baking in the oven, the warm
something cooking for supper.
I love the snow flakes,
unique, every one. I savor
the sting they leave on my tongue.
I love the excuse to bring
out knitting needles and
wool yarn, blankets and slippers.
But my favorite thing about winter,
is that very rare occasion
when a few snow flakes gingerly
land on my eye lashes.

God is my keeper

God is my keeper,
when shall I die?
He sees me hurting,
and hears me cry.

God is my keeper ,
I want to know,
when this'll be over,
I want to go home.

I want to be in His presence,
and see the golden roads.
I'm tired of waiting,
in this world sorrowed.

If I must stay here,
in this world of gloom,
please make him better,
and let him smile soon.

It hurts to see him,
so bitter and cold.
He's angry and lonely,
is what I've been told.

I love him dearly.
Please heal him fast.
He needs Your touch Lord.
He's so downcast.

Oh God my keeper
please hear my cry
I want to stay here
but I want him alright.
