Blessed with Love
Siusan O'Rourke 10-02-09
My Life began with No Parade
But a map of Love was Laid
To help me if a Stumbled on the Way
Playground Bullies, Kiss and Tell
were there really fires in Hell,
Were the topics of the Prayers I prayed
Christmas Pageants, Halloween
Fairies, Monsters all unseen
were the waft and Weave of Childhood days
I grew away from it so Fast
The Innocence just could not last
But that was where the Heart and Soul was made
Reprise
And on the Day I close these eyes
My Soul will Warm the winter Skys
And I'll not mourn the Days gone by
For I was Raised with Love
Around my Table wars were fought
Coffee Cups were filled with Thought
Common Ground was found with Talk and Pie
Scrabble games late in the night
Seven Letter words spelled right
Play to win as though its live or die
Friendships of the Treasured kind
Finely honed and worn with time
Have kept me safe and sane as years go by
Babies born and wedding days
Weathered Friends who've passed away
Countless are the Tears that I have cried
And on the Day I close these eyes
My soul will warm the winter skys
And I'll not mourn the days gone by
Im Traveling with Their Love
My Children they were sent to me
To test my Sheer Tenactity
and try my Faith in Everything on High
As babies they were sweet and Dear
Growing up they showed no fear
Learning they must Fall to learn to Fly
Mornings came and Mornings went
Off the school and back again
Fast to share the Stories of their Days
Sticky Kisses, tiny hands,
Hearts with Dreams and Giant plans
Carry my Hopes too along their way
And on the day I close my eyes
My soul will warm the winter Skys
And I'll not mourn the Days gone by
They've taught me How to love
Nights too short and Days too long
Ive shared a life thats set in song
with a man that thinks in Note and Rhyme
And we speak without a word
Love is Felt it is not heard
Strings of Moments Hang like pearls in Time
Content and Happy holding hands
Ive never known a stronger man
Who wore my weakness like it was his own
and in the Darkness of the pain
He fell on me like Cooling Rain
Washing all the weary from the Bone
And on the Day I close these eyes
My Soul will warm the winter skys
And I'll not mourn the Days gone by
For I've been Blessed with Love
