Have you ever stopped to wonder?
Why people come into your life
How you can give back to them
When they give so much to you
The words Thank you seem so small
When others have lifted you from lonliness
Shown you that there is so
much more to you then you knew
You feel like I have known this person before
Many have walked with you
before in another time and place
Life is a never ending journey
Changing forms as we go, changing places
Our loves remain by us
Have you ever just met someone
And known right away so much about them
From a single look, a single touch of gentle fingers
A voice so familar bringing back memories of family
Of the warmth of home
Never wonder why
Know it is meant to be
People come into your life and are always there
They never leave it, but are
in your heart always and forever
There is a silver thread that joins us
By being near and reaching out
You give back so much
Even with the simple words Thank you
These words say more then you know
Their gift of self has been accepted
When they look into your shinning eyes
They know that you feel whole again
Have you ever thought that
they feel the same about you
Wondering how to thank you for being you
So many colours of the rainbow
I see in each one's face
Each one reaching out and joining hands
Reaching out in many ways
Hearts reaching out, touching souls,
Wounded hearts feeling gentle caring fingers
Each night as I close my eyes
I think of each one I hold dear
I say a prayer for them
I say good night and send my heart to them
Know that as each one comes into your life
They take with them the good you give, the love you give
And hold it close, so they can take another step
Face another day, knowing somewhere out there
Is someone else who cares

A view of love.
I have seen the morning sun rise upon my window panes.
I have seen the glory of the sun as sets at end of day.
I have seen rebirth in the beginnings of each new day.
I have heard the sounds cast in my mind of words unsaid.
On a clear day, I can see forever in the skies above me.
I have seen the love as soft eyes gazed gently into mine,
I have known love on four legs, more so than ever I have two.
I have had the pleasure of time that stands still in my mind.
I have shared the silver of the teardrops as they fell,
I have heard the words of others in much pain.
There have been things I know left unsaid as time heals,
But I have sensed those teardrops fall like rain.
It is known the pain of words written for this heart that hurts,
And words fill the gap that time has not yet felt the need to erase,
You too have words that you too have yet to speak or write,
About the great hurt of the tears that you wet upon your face.
So let we who care share your pain with you my friends,
Let not ever the glory of the rainbows shine be for naught.
One day more shall we rise to smell the beauty of the rose.
And once more in the web of great love shall we be caught.
Yes you have known the glory of the sunrise as it burst upon the land,
And seen it slowly drift across the meadow gently kissed with dew.
You have felt its warming rays spread and warm your very soul,
And you have known the love of four legs, just as you have two.
You know this life as it stands is not without its grief,
So Live on this life that you know you must fulfill,
Until that day that you are called upon to go,
And you will see the sunlight shine again upon your sill.
