For My Brother, Marvin, At The Interment Of His Beloved Wife, Cherri-Ann


I Remember, Well
When You Found My Heart!
And, Yet
Here, Today
In This Trying Hour
Your Flesh ... From This Vale Of Tears
Shall Forever Depart!

I Have Lost You From My Life And Time
But Memory, Memories
Beautiful Memories Of You
Of Us
Our Love
Our Life Together
From Me 
Shall Never Depart!

You Trusted Me With Your Heart!
I Trusted You With Mine
And Though We Shall Never Meet Again
In This Life
We Have Two Beautiful Daughters
Who Show To All The World
That Our Hearts, Lovingly
Did Entwine!

Of Knowing You, I Have No Regret!
Of Loving You, I Have No Pain!
Of Releasing You
That For Me Is Another Matter
But I Trust The Glorious Lord
Who Already Bore For Us Pain
And Great Shame!

Our Father Is In Heaven!
We Belong For A Short Time On The Earth
But Through The Shed Blood Of 
The Lord Jesus Christ
By Faith
We Have Promise Of The New Birth!

Whatever Is For Our Good
Is Ever For God's Glory
And
The Lord Christ Knows That
That Is For Our Peace
And, So, Beloved
You, From Mortal Strife
Gained Your Release!

I Was Not Ready To Let You Go!
I Am Not Ready ... Yet
But
The Eternal God Runs The Life Of Man Show
And, So
And, So, Cherri-Ann, Beloved
Bone Of My Bone
Flesh Of My Flesh
Till Death Was The Vow!
You Kept Your Word!
I Love You!
And Only God Knows How!
I Shall, With Love, Always
Remember You!

Rest Easy ... Until The Resurrection!

The Canvas of Life



The Canvas of Life

A new day is a sign to me
To let go of the past
It’s like a new piece of canvas
With no memories of what I did last!



With this my new-day canvas
I’m free to paint at will
I can choose a brand new medium
And paint it to my fill!


I look upon my canvas
Top to bottom, up and down, all around
Until the Inspiration calls out to me
 And master strokes abound!

And when my canvas is all complete
I take my rest and reflect
Upon the picture I drew through today
And know that it's my best yet! **BJC**
