True Wisdom Of A Dear Friend
I Thank The Dear Lord Above For Giving You To Me
Oh How I Cherish And Marvel You
For Without That Of Our Friendship
I Do Not Know Where I Would Be
I Will Not Question As To Why He Brought Us Together
All I Know Is Without You I Would Be Lost Forever
I Have Traveled A Very Long And Lonely Path
But With That Of Your Angelic Guidance
I Am Now Rescued From All The Heartache And Wrath
To You My Dearest Friend I Say Are The Sister I Never Had
But The Good Lord Stepped In And Changed Things
In Fulfilling My Long Awaited Wish
For The Sister I Have Found In You I Am So Very Glad

I Remember Those Years
The Year is 1976
June, My High School Graduation, My 1st. NEW Car
My Nursing Profession Going Well
I Remember long Drives thinking
I NEVER could have Dreamed I'd go this far
But this was just the Beginning of My Life
For in June of 1979 I became a Wife, soon thereafter
April 1st.1980 the Birth of My Daughter took place
Not knowing I'd Soon be a Widow, the Year Dec.1982
My Destiny Alone; I now knew I Must face
The Years went by, Blessing Me with 3 more Children
Thee Most Grandest Times of ALL
I could NEVER have Imagined; My Duties, This Call
The Children are now Grown, I'm Still ALL Alone
But Fate Intervened, For 2004 I Entered God's Home
Here on Earth as A Bishop to Simplistically Endure
To Guide My Brethen, Hand In Hand Religiously
To A Better World feeling Unduly Secure
My Mission So Solid, As Hard as a Rock
My Heart is The Foundation to which I Will NOT Part
