All winter long I've been so cold.
My feet nearly freeze since I got old.
I get bundled up and jump into bed.
But the sheets are so cold, it's something I dread.
My heating pad quit, so what . . .

Forty-Eight years ago today,
Dr. Reeves sent me on my way
To St. Vincents Infirmary in Little Rock,
Where they put me in a hospital frock.
We'd had our Christmas the night before,
Anticipating . . .

36 years ago today, I knew my baby was on the way.
As I attended my baby shower, Melissa was being born that hour.
Got all these presents in the nick of time, and all the gifts were really prime.
Excitment . . .

Remember when we first went out together on the lake?
You were so shy and I was coy and my leg I tried to break!
And then remember the occasion when I fixed the picnic lunch?
And all the fried chicken . . .

The days grow long and I am weary.
Why does my life always seem so dreary?
As I sit here in the glooom each day
I wonder what would Jesus say.
I'm sure He would tell me to just get up,
Be glad . . .

As a child living in the hills of Arkansas, I always got carsick. Therefore, I did not like traveling much farther than the next town. Back then there were just two lane roads, some not paved, . . .

THE YOUNG MAID GROWS LIKE A GANGLING SPROUT
'TILL SHE LEARNS WHAT LOVE IS ALL ABOUT.
THEN WITH EYES AGLOW THEIR ARMS ENTWINE
LIKE THE STEMS OF THE BEAUTIFUL IVY VINE.

You came along when I was low. Showed me a new path I could go.
You made me laugh and have some fun. And so a new life had begun.
Dining, dancing, concerts too, plays and opera to go with . . .

Free at last!
My wings unfurl and I am off,
Seeking a new life, a new adventure.
I will soar to heights unknown,
Exploring life to the fullest.
Thank you, God, for showing me the way,
For being there . . .

When times are hard and you're feeling low,
Remember God loves you. And don't you know
You're lucky to be in a place where love
Is given so freely. Thank the saints above.

The years have come and the years have gone.
You've just gotten better. And what's so wrong
With a little grey? It's sophisticated.
Color and age aren't really related.

I venture forth with trepidation into the unknown.
Where will it lead me? Only God knows.
I'm too old for this adventure. Help me, Lord.
But I can't stay where I am. It is . . .

My how time flies when you're having fun! In the past 36 years I have watched my only child go from a toddler to a beautiful grown woman. Some of the most memorable . . .

Mirtie and Dee and Tony made three,
And they were happy as they could be.
Or so they thought till the stork had brought....

Simple words cannot express the feeling in my heart,
At your devoted kindness when we're so far apart.
Your loving thoughts, your actual deeds go far beyond the realm
Of just remembering the day. . . .

A simple "Thank you" is not enough to express the way I feel. Our visit meant much more to me than bed and another meal. A trip "back home" is not complete unless I see . . .

Long ago and far away there came a time when she didst say,
"I'd like to have a child or two." He said, "T'would be my pleasure too."
And so their love did form a bond. . . .

Nine long years I've lived with you,
Some days happy, some days blue.
Never have I spent this long
In the same old house. So what is wrong?
Guess I've gotten in a rut,
Can't break . . .

Time really goes by when you're having fun.
Even seems to fly 'neath the summer sun.
Thinking about the days gone by
You come to mind with a twinkle in your eye.
Yesterday's memories are . . .
