Times Change
Times Change
I was born in the year 1940
Growing up I was a little naughty
I was a little scared
To really be bad
We started to see many strangers
People reacted to different dangers
My mother and her friends stopped the late night talks
People were being more careful during walks
My mother and friends started locking doors
We seen protective gates going up on the local stores
My family and I lived in New York City
Things became worse and not to pretty
Garbage thrown in...

Trigger
Trigger
What is the meaning for the word trigger
To me the meaning is some what bigger
Many things I could share
It’s a meaning that can bring on a tear
To some of us it could be a word
For some it might be a bird
Maybe a dog or a cat
Or maybe just a place we are at
Something that reminds me of my wife
I may cry or be mad or just hate my life

Message to God
Message to God
Something I would like to ask
For you this would be a small task
My wife is in heaven with you
That’s something you already knew
Years ago when I met my wife
She’s been the everything in my life
And now that where apart
I wish to say something from my heart
Would you let her know
That we all miss her so
Would you give her all my love
Till you take me up above

Christmas Lights
Christmas Lights
My son lives in Florida with his spouse
I was visiting them at their house
On my last day in the warm sunlight
He was outside hanging a Christmas light
I walked outside and my eyes started to tear
Because my wife is no longer hear
I always disliked hanging Christmas lights
Early comes the winter days and nights
My wife would always give me directions
On how to hang the decorations
I now miss hearing my wife say
No don’t do it that way
I didn’t always take her advice

Christmas Past
Christmas past
We always had a Christmas tree
My wife would decorate it without me
So many gifts by the tree
No empty space could you see
Our little ones would crawl all around
They would try climbing the gift mound
Year after year on Christmas morning
Kids tearing open gifts and I’m yawning
The kids woke early on Christmas day
We told the kids your older so go away
With the years going by
We could sleep longer my wife and I
Now since its just me
No more do I need a Christmas tree
My...

Children
Children
I can only write this from a male side
As a husband and father with pride.
After a man and a woman say the words I do
You may be thinking of children to.
After your wife gets pregnant thinking of a girl or boy
At the end of the term you will have a bundle of joy.
Children need love and care so does your wife
Whatever the cost from your own life.
Take care of your wife, and your children also
With a great deal of love and support they will grow.
A good way to write...

Angel of Mine
Angel of mine
I had written a poem called “Deaths Door”
My sleeping problem my wife did endure
From when I lost my spouse
It’s only the dog and I at the house
Before I go to bed I shut the light
Something happened to me one night
I felt a hand on my back waking me
Nobody but the dog here with and me
It could have been a night I lost my breath
An angel may have kept me from death
That angel must be my wife
Still watching over my life
She watched over me when she was alive
She must still be helping...

Peter Pan Envy
Peter Pan Envy
I envy Peter Pan
He never get’s old as a man
He can fly back and forth to never-never land
To his lost boys a merry band
If I had Tinkerbelle’s fairy dust and could fly
I would go up and up into the sky
I would fly up to my wife who’s in heaven
And take her back to nineteen fifty-seven
The fifties were a great time in life
It was when I met my future wife
I envy Peter Pan
He never get’s old as a man
He can fly back and forth to never-never land
To his lost boys a merry band
If I had Tinkerbelle’s fairy dust and could fly
I would go up and up into the sky
I would fly up to my wife who’s in heaven
And take her back to nineteen fifty-seven
The fifties were a great time in life
It was when I met my future wife

Message in Flight
Message in Flight
A fellow from my group had told me
It was something that touched me
He told me about something for his wife
About releasing a balloon honoring her life
I thought I would do it for my wife
Write messages how she’s missed from my life
I love you Joey I wrote on the balloon
I kissed it and let it go up towards the moon
It went up and up into the sky
I did my best not to cry
I watched it take flight
I watched it go out of sight
The balloon went up to my wife
I will be with her at the end...

God For A Day
God for a day
If I could be God for just a day
To do things my way
I would eliminate disease from the earth
So children would not be sick at birth
When children are healthy
Parents feel wealthy
Children should have protection
Also learn the right direction
Women have inner beauty and love
They need attention from above
I would also save the past
So some memories and things could last
I probably won’t be God for a day
But I wish these would come true anyway
...

Dance On A Cloud
Dance on a cloud
My wife and I met in the city of New York
With touching of hands a kiss and some talk
After years of marriage and children she died
With no goodbyes I broke down and cried
Our wedding bands are no longer apart
Joined together they hang near my heart
My wife in heaven waits for me
I don’t know how long it will be
For as long as I’m earthly bound
I hope my wife’s spirit is around
Looking at the white clouds up above
I think of my wife who I love
Clouds look like spirits in the sky...

Americans
Americans
Our founding fathers are probably turning over in their grave
From the way our present leaders behave
Our leaders are giving our country away
They upset the American people most everyday
With the new healthcare some people were offered a deal
While some Americans can’t even pay for their next meal
This administration is giving away our country
Foreigners sneak over our borders and could get amnesty
Our leaders seem to favor foreign people
Possibly more than the American people
The Government is failing at protecting our...
