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 . . .

My Darling, I love you.
You're all that I desire.
Without you I'm nothing.
You set my heart on fire
If ever you leave me
My heart would break in two.
I'll love you forever,
Until my . . .

It seems like only yesterday that you were going out to play.
You'd climb your slide and look around, but not one playmate could be found.
The sand would squish between your toes. What you . . .

I tried to not look down to my right but keep my eyes looking straight ahead. One false move I was sure could lead to certain death. I prayed that the mare I was riding was very sure footed . . .

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.
POLLINATION TAKES PLACE FROM . . .

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.

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 . . .

The morning dawns on the mountaintop, the air is crisp and clean.
Through the mist below the old clock tower barely can be seen.
The song of birds is the only sound that breaks the peace and quiet.

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

The brothers Wright, took their first flight
On Nag's . . .

In the glow of the campfire God was there,
As we each lit a candle and said a prayer.
Reflecting on life in the still night air,
We all came together for which to share.
We told of our problems, laid . . .

Out of the blue, the enemy strikes, with no regard for human life.
What could they be thinking of? Certainly not peace, only strife.
Into our memories, forevermore, the scene will be emblazed. . . .

Thirty years ago today
We were up Wyoming way,
Both of us about to say...
I do.
That was many years ago
And we loved each other so.
Who could have forseen the woe
'Twas due.
Still the memories . . .

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 . . .

For you to be happy is my constant prayer.
For if this is so, I know that I'll share.
Why should we quarrel when our goals are the same?
Achieving them jointly is the name of the game.
If each . . .

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 . . .
