Poem for Memorial Day: "We Remember"


a poem for the Memorial Day Weekend



"We Remember"

On Memorial day, we remember those that we have loved.
Family, friends and those who have fought in war.
All of those who have gone and walked through God's door.

Their memories stay in our heart,
each memory, playing every part.

While truly, they really aren't that far,
Just a heart beat away,
Because they are looking over us
each and every day.

Poem: Weekend Dreams




Weekend Dreams. 

The weekend has come and went,
and we will dream about the memories
of the time we spent.

Now it's time for another week,
Working hard to earn our keep.

Until another weekend approaches us once again,
We will have to live on those memories
and all of the wonderful places
that we have been.

Poem: The Gift of Life

(I might have posted this before, but it is a reminder for people to appreciate the life that they have... Life is precious, short and should be enjoyed. With God as a part of your life, you can conquer anything....)



THE GIFT OF LIFE

Life will kick you down,
but then you kick it right back.

Sometimes you felt that it wasn't worth all of the pain,
But there is so much more in life worth to gain.
Don't let life get you down,
God didn't create us to wear a frown.

Why so serious?
Laugh!
God gave us the gift of joyous laughter.
That is definitely one reason to smile.

Sometimes, you have to take a chance.
Roll the dice... and pass go!

Don't get stuck in the mud,
just take off your shoes, and keep on going.
That's why God gave you feet!

It's time to smile, laugh and pick up the pace.
Look up to the sun, and let the light shine on your face.
Bask in God's glorious warmth.

And always remember the simple things...
Without all of those small reminders, life would just be too difficult.

You only live once in this life-time.
Make it worth your while,

Life is the one gift that you can never take back.

A Beautiful Zentangle Necklace

A "Beautiful" Zentangle Necklace
A great thing about Zentangle, is that you can use it to embellish items. Use it to create jewelry, embellish scrapbook pages or even make greeting cards with it. Above is an example of what I have done with one of my designs and turned it into a necklace. 

If you like this necklace, you can purchase it at the Tangled Art Gifts Store.
