A Perfect Night
A Perfect Night
by Joeysguy
Outside is a cold and dark night
The clouds drifting and releasing some moonlight
Walking into a dark room I look down at the bed
My wife laying still but turns her head
A crack in the drapes let's in some moonlight
Onto her milky white skin and it shines in the night
Her naked body gives off a radiant shine
I think I'm lucky, she's mine
She extends out her hand
The room darkens and I see a shine from her wedding band
I get into the bed next to her...

Mirror Mirror On The Wall
Mirror Mirror On The Wall
By Joeysguy
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who is the loneliest person of all
This mirror that hangs on my wall
For a long time and never did fall
I use to lift my kids when they were small
To look in the mirror on the wall
After a few years the kids grew tall
They no longer needed my help to look in the mirror on the wall
Looking in the mirror for many years
With smiles and even some tears
In that mirror I would see my life
Standing with me, my kids and my wife ...

Imagination
Imagination
by Joeysguy
It was many years ago
I happened to be at a casino
After awhile I sat in a card game
The casino dealer never said his name
The dealer said these cards were of my future life
He dealt me a jack, and a queen that represented a wife
He dealt three more cards from the pack
They were two more queens and a second jack
I've dealt you a good hand, the dealer said
That's what you'll have after your wed
The five cards totaled to a full house
The three kids...

Believing in Santa
Believing in Santa
By Joeysguy
At home it was just my mother and me
When I was a child we had a Christmas tree
That tree was about two feet tall
It was on top of the fridge against the wall
Mom would say, you have to be a good boy
And Santa would leave you a new toy
Christmas Eve he would come but then disappear
And he wouldn’t come again till the following year
I found out why there was only one toy for me
Because my mom didn’t have much money
As a child there were things I never knew
I found out about...

Holding Back A Tear
Holding Back A Tear
By Joeysguy
At the bereavement group that I attend
It’s a place we don’t have to pretend
We hear stories of emotion and pain
Pretending here has nothing to gain
People come here in a sad way
Because of a life that had slipped away
Some people sit here with tears in their eyes
We all know that pain of when a love dies
With the stories that we hear
It’s hard to hold back a tear
Everyone here has lost a love
Taken from us to the heaven above
It’s always hard to keep a dry eye ...

Helen’s Daughter
Helen’s Daughter
By Joeysguy
Helen, Since your daughter is back with you
This writing is long overdue
When your daughter became my wife
I also became her protector in life
She developed heart problems like you
And died because of it too
I feel I failed to keep her alive
I’m sorry that she didn’t survive
Lots of my memories bring out my tears
But I wouldn’t trade away any of those years ...

All I’m Worth
All I’m Worth
By Joeysguy
Way back when on the day of my birth
I was born to parents of no worth
Over the years my worth had grown
It wasn’t anything that I did own
It was my greatest of value and it’s worth
That was my wife and her giving birth
Being pregnant made my wife glow
With each pregnancy my worth did grow
My wife gave birth to two daughters and a son
After those three she was done
I’ll never lose any of my worth
In the future my grandchildren giving birth

Closed Eyes
Closed Eyes
By Joeysguy
I close my eyes when I sleep
I open them in my dreams
Sleep for me is never deep
We close our eyes when we kiss
We open them with joy
And feel the bliss
We close our eyes when we die
We open them to see the way
Somebody will close their eyes to cry

Angels Around Us
Angels Around Us
By Joeysguy
My first Angel was small and bright
She did glow with her very own light
She stood on the top of our Christmas tree
Placed up there by my wife or me
My wife gave birth to our little three
Like little Angels they looked to me
Those little Angels they mean so much
Just holding them and feeling their touch
I feel an Angel is watching over my life
I believe it to be the spirit of my wife
She watches over me when I’m a sleep in bed
I have felt her hand on my back or my head ...

So Close, So Far
So Close, So Far
By Joeysguy
So close is a husband and wife
Closer than most things in life
I gave the rest of my heart away
Given to her on our wedding day
From the day she became my bride
All the years we were side by side
The beauty that I had in my life
It was in the face of my wife
She’s in my heart and in my head
But no longer shares my bed
In those times when I would cry
Thoughts of her is the reason why
She’s always been the strength in my life
So much love I have for my wife

The Kiss
The Kiss
By Joeysguy
Meeting for the first time under the moonlight
I leaned over and kissed her on that summer night
That kiss was in a loving way
It led to us seeing each other every day
That was how our feelings were started
I went into the relationship wholehearted
Skipping past the years that have gone by
To a time of now that brings a tear from my eye
I saw her when I looked through the door
She was passed out on the bathroom floor
I grabbed the phone and called nine one one
The operator told me what...

A Special Flight
A Special Flight
By joeys guy
This small and special hot air balloon
It will be leaving sometime soon
When the flight is full a bell will ring
That will be when you hear an Angel sing
Everyone enters into the basket
Heaven will be the exit
We take small groups of one hundred and eleven
We only go to Heaven
This flight has no age limit
For this trip any age can get on it
To take this trip you must have past away
Something happened that you died this very day
I’m sorry that you are on this flight...
