August 25

My mom’s day of birth.
She is no longer here on earth.
Heaven celebrates
Her presence within its gates.
I remember her and give thanks.

In remembrance of my Mom who was born August 25, 1915 and passed into heaven October 10, 2001

Happiness

Posted on by Leonas Lines

Another day of life
A new opportunity
My daily happiness
Given by the grace of God
I choose to rejoice and be glad
