Through our many walks we had long talks, Of family, loves, and life’s ticking clock! Things we’ve done and things we wanted to do. She never said anything that wasn’t true. She worried her walking...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Carlas_poems/575369With a life full of songs, What could go wrong? While singing every note, There is no time to mope. To feel the vibration, Is a wonderful sensation! It's a great pleasure, That has no measure! When you sing a song, Weather it's short or long! A life full of singing, Touches the soul of your being!...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Carlas_poems/571579A Prayer For My Brother Dear Lord it's me again and y our ear I need to bend! You know my brother is a loner and h e doesn't like much fuss. He doesn't like people in his space and he often gets in your face! He always complains about many things and h e doesn't really see the beauty that life...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Carlas_poems/567922We walk and hike a long long way. We find a spot in half a day. We set up camp along the shore, At a raging river, we dig and pour. We shake and dip and grab for more. Black pan in hand and filled with mud. We toss some rocks that make a thud. Around and around the water twirls, In the pan the...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Carlas_poems/555825Waking up from a sound sleep, Wishing for your dreams to keep. You suddenly feel out of breath, Heart racing, scaring you to death! Lightheadedness now comes your way, You pray and pray that it won't stay. Cool cloth upon your head you place, Pray to God for His grace, Your terrified and shaking...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Carlas_poems/551596Why do some demand your love? They want it now and start to shove, all their reasons why you should, Love just them as if you could! We are family so love me now, It doesn't matter when, where, and how! Total strangers we were days ago, But now were family, so your love must show! Friendship...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Carlas_poems/549200Marriage M-is for meeting of the minds where two become one. A-is for the affection and attraction shared between the two. R-is for the rings that bind a neverending circle of love. R-is for the romance they share. I-is for the intimacy of true love. A-is for allowing each other to grow. G-is for...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Carlas_poems/547224Coconuts When life throws you lemons, You are to make lemonade. That is what they all say! But what are you suppose to do, when life throws coconuts at you! Do you chop them up or shred them thin? Do you paint on a smile and just pretend? What are you to do with those very hard shells? How do you...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Carlas_poems/522122My life started over today, The life I knew was pushed away, Yesterday! I was normal and now I'm not, The dice were rolled, And this is my lot! Diabetes! So I started a new life today. I still will laugh, love, and play! I will pray for strength along the way. I said goodbye to my old friends,...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Carlas_poems/517689My Soul Song I sing for you Lord, from my soul. For all the beauty on this earth I behold. You formed each view with your breath. Your love never ends, e very day life begins. Without you life does not exist. What marvels you have done! What peace you have brought! You made everything, you own...
