2011???

2011
???

What once was just a friendship has now blossomed
Into something far greater than one can imagine.
I wonder at time why I drive past your work,
Just to see if I can just get a quick glimpse of you.
Than I find myself wonder should I stop and go in.

What once started as just a fling now has become,
Wonders of when the next time I’ll see you again.
What started off as just a day now into weeks, and even months!
I say to my self we are just friends but,
Deep within I know you have become way more.

I once was broken and confused and lost to the world.
But you brought me back with your tender words and many late nights.
I was a good girl never to have been drunk, but now
I think I’m starting to enjoy this bottle of RUM!!!
I start to wonder when my next drink will be and I wait for you.

I’ve fallen for you I know that now,
In the way I have hope when my phone goes off
That it might be you on the other end.
Oh how I’m blue when we go days without a word
I’ve fallen for you I know for I have many sleepless nights when your

Thousands of miles away and,
I can’t help but worry about you.
I know you’re a soldier and are not alone.
But you made a way into my heart and
I’m starting to like the worrying part.

You’re my soldier
And you’re keeping this world safe
You’re doing your part in this world
And I think that’s what made it so easy
To Fall In LOVE with YOU!

So Long Ago

2/3/10
                                            So Long Ago


We meet so long ago.
Though the halls in schools
We became friends
We were told to stay apart
But we broke every rule they made

We were never apart.
We love one another more than people know
We have always been there for one another
We had our differences and our fights
But we always came back

You are the sister I always wanted.
You were the friend I always needed
And if I never told you what you are to me
I want you to know
You give me hope when its gone

You pick me up
And help me though.
Even when you know that I can do it alone
Your there to walk though with me.
As I am for you.

Everyday gets better and better
Knowing your only a call away
Knowing you will be there in every way
You give me that special love
Everyone needs in a friend

And I know no matter what I do
You will always be there
To pick up the pieces when
I’m spread out over every corner
Shattered over a guy.

Goodbye!! Marie Edwards

2/3/10 Another one I was asked to write....  I meet Maria in Jr High and it wasn't long before she became one of my biggest fans. Someone I could run to and confide in.  She was the second grandma I never had for moms mother died when she learned she was pregnant with me. 

Goodbye Marie Edwards

You were the Grandmother that I never had.
You were the friend I could always count on.
You encouraged me to do many great things
And some you may not have been proud.
But you stood by me though everything.

Though we may not have been blood.
I felt that was only an excuse.
You were my family
And I know I was yours.
Forever accepted never to part

My heart shattered at the call
That you have now departed.
I hope the Skies open up for you
With golden gates and angels waiting
You deserve that. For everything you did

You were always there even when
Nobody asked
Though many never said thanks
Or giving back
We always wanted too

Everyone could talk to you about anything
You were so wise
You knew everything and what you didn’t
You found out.
I’m sorry we never told you what you were to us.

You were the mother that everyone wanted
The one who sat at a bar and had a beer
Would talk of anything from God and the most
Holy of holy things
So blessed with knowledge

To the things that I can’t say
The most unholiest of things
I remember you calling and talking of things
That made my friends ears go pink when they
Knew we were talking to our Grandmother

I’ll leave it at that for you know what conversations.
The many times we called to check on you
And your most stubborn states of not answering the phone
For days, weeks, sometimes even months.
The many late nights sitting watching movies

My Dearest

2/3/10  I was asked to write this for a Good friends Grandmother.

                                             My Dearest

My dearest Paula
How I hold you dear
The joy of my life
The light of my world
You are the reason I wake….

My loving Ted is gone.
And I see him when I sleep waiting.
But then I see you,
And you have his eyes,
You are his world, and now your mine.

You are like the sunflower
Soaking the sun rays light
Growing bigger and stronger
With each passing day
You are the reason that I wake…..

So many years we share.
You, me, and your father
Though you lost him young.
He was there in your eye.
You are his princess.

You are as broad as you are tall
You have so much love to give.
And so many who wish to return it
You are beauty in a shell
Just needing to blossom

Though we had are moments.
We were always there
You took me in
And you were forever mine.
You are the reason that I wake.

Why Are You Here

2/3/10


                                     Why Are You Here!

Why are you still here?
Here in my heart and soul
I thought we parted so long ago
Though there isn’t a day that goes by
That you’re not in my mind

Your memories
Your touch
The many moments we shared
The laughter
The kisses

If being friends is for the best
Why are you still in every thought?
We never did anything to cause this
But love isn’t something you can control
It happiness at its own pace, its own time.

So many miles apart.
Only calls and letters
Kisses and hugs
Never anything more
Never given a real chance

So many sorrows
So many losses
So much love
Love has many tricks
When we are ready it will blossom even bigger

Growing with each day apart
Never given a chance to glimmer in the light
Kept on a back burner on simmer
Someday we will burn the house down

How Do I feel when I think of you.

2.3/10 unsure on the title

                          How Do I feel When I think of You

How do I feel when I think of you.
My chest will explode with memories
The many visits from you
Over fill my heart with joy
So much love in one small shell.

So many nights alone spent
Of thoughts of you
So many miles apart
So much keeping us apart
Yet our hearts have always been one.

So many sights that made us jealous
Yet we never spoke of this feeling
I never told you that when I saw you
All I wanted was to be in your embrace
Forever loved, forever safe in your arms.

So large and so rough around the edges
Yet you were so tender when you touched me
Making me feeling things for my whole life
You have always been my best friend
I’ve known you my whole life.

So many nights spent with you on my mind
When it was all wrong,
You weren’t the one who was supposed to be on it.
Nobody knows you were the one I dreamed of.
You’re the reason I got though every day.

So many hurts and misunderstandings
So many dreams broken,
On large Pandora box open now
And I don’t know if I can close it again.
I don’t know if I want too…..

Everyday

Befor March 2006 But after January 2006


                                            Everyday


Every day that goes by & your always there.
Not in shape or form,
But in Spirit and Soul.

Every night that Goes by,
I know I'm in your arms,
In your Dreams, in your heart.

Every Breath I take your the reason
I take it... You may never realize
it of act on it But you know
Deep Down that all this is true.

You have my heart my soul, my everything
As you and I both know its the same with you.
You see me cry & it tears your heart.
It slowly kills you inside.
When people tell you whats in
Front of You.

Ripples

                                                Ripples

I have regrets,
that have consequences
which is like a rock making ripples in the creek down back.
and as I watch the ripples get bigger and bigger.
I realize that they grow with each feeling I have for you.

I know I've done wrong
I know we have regrets
I know I need to be like the rock that breaks into the surface
and form ripples between us.
and hope that these ripples will bring forgiveness and hope with them.

I made mistakes
which have consequences with them.
But I know I'm not alone on them.
For I do beleave that you have made one or two in your lifetime too.
So let me be the rock that brings ripples into our relationship.

Let us together watch and learn just how big a ripple can be.
Let us see what ripples can bring.
Let me be the rock to stir the water. (Let me be the rock which stirs the water)
Let me show you my regrets and sorrows. and
Let us see if we can mend each other words together forever.

Forget 2007


How many times do we wish to forget memories, people, things that happened that haunt us in life and sleep?
Let me know what you think



                                                 Forget

I long to forget,
forget those memories that I hold dear.
Forget the things we shared. (so long ago)
I long for that.

That which I can not have.
I long to forget,
Forget your touch,
your hand on my back, your lips on my skin. (forehead)
Your place you made beside me.

I long to forget,
Forget the hopes, and dreams
which you gave me.
My life with you
I long to forget.

The things I'll never have.
I long to forget,
Forget the things you showed me,
Love, Joy, Happiness, fulfillment.
Which means nothing without you.

So I long to forget,
Forget all the things of you and me.
To erase the pain of you leaving.
For which I miss you everyday.
Every heart beat that my heart gives.

Is a cry of pain.
When you walked out the door.
Hoping that someday you might,
Walk though it again.
So I long to forget.

Time


                                                       Time

I held you hand
and you my heart
and we loved like no one ever did.
A love like this comes once every century.
A love like this is not easily forgotten.

There is just to much time
Time will not erase.
You use to drive me crazy.
Now your diving me insane.
I've try to tell my self that your gone.

But your still here in my heart.
I can't get you out of my head.
There is just to much time to erase.
I can't erase it all.
I don't want to erase it.

I don't want to forget.

But these wounds wont seem to heal.
When I cried you would whip all of my tears.
And I held your hand though all these years.
And I still Hold you.

I Love You 2007


                                               I love you

I love the way you touch my skin.
I love the way you drive me wild.
I love the way you make me feel.

I love you, I love you, I love you....

What you going to do

True Love Lessions From Youth Group 2003 in my Words

True Love is known when your heart wants to pertect and nourish the other person no matter what.  When you put them first.  That is when you are in true love.....
There are three types of love.  In the world today.
1.  If Love - I love you if..........
2.  I Love - I love you becasue.........
3.  I Love you - I love you Period.  (no acceptions, Doesn't look at past faults)  This is the type god has for us too.
True love is in giving not in reciving.  Though reciving love in return is always great.  How does one know if they are in true love many ask the question.  But only few are able to answer it.  In Ephesians 5:28-29(scroll to bottom of blog for scriptures) gives us a great example of true love.  According to the scriptures a wife is like your own body.  So to be loved and to love think of them as you would yourself.  In doing so you will take better care of your lover than you could ever imagin.
Love is different when it comes to men and women.  They both look at it differently and they never really know why the girl is hurt more in a break up than the guy.  Here is an example
Guys                                         /                                     Girls
worry about What people think   /            Emotional Attraction to the guy.
Want to be a stud                      /            Wants to be loved
On a mutral aspect though they both are worried about not being liked, or loved by the other. And they worry about what the future has in stalled for them.
But to truely love someone you have to be able to love yourself first.  True love thinks of the other person becasue they are healthy in there selfes.  So because you are in love you worry about them and try to keep them safe.  Becasue you are health in your life and how things are going.  And you want to share it with them in there life.  If you love someone you would Do whats best for them and not yourself.  You will put them first and formost in your life.  You would rather go without than watch them go without.
Love- Type of love
Nourish- To meet the needs in there life just like you do in yourself.
Cherish- Pretect from harm
When you are dating someone and you ask yourself Is this true love.  Think of these quiestions:
Does he/she drive safly with me in the vehicle?
Dose he/she try to presher me to do things I don't want to?
Do they make me feel good about myself?
Are they always on my mind?
Is he/she my best freind? (can I tell them things I wont tell others?)
One of the biggest quiestions asked by many people is
How far can I Go?
I have to say the answer to that is.  How far would you go if your parents are right there with at that moment.  That is how far you should go.
True Love will give you pleasures but will not lead to sex.  For sex is to be shared with your Wife/Husband and nobody else.  So if you are in true love they will wait for love is far greater than any bodly pleasure.  It will also pertect you from hurt and pain because they will be there to take it away.  Because they love you and they don't want to see you suffer.  When you find the one you truely love you should insist on an isclusive relationship. (100% of there time.  Can't date other people while with you)  But just becasue you are dating does not mean they can't be with there friends.  For its good to keep your individual self and have your unity at the same time.  Do not lose your self completly.  Being in love is something to make you grow but your freinds help you grow in other ways.
Another way to know when your in love-
With other people your feelings become like brothers/sisters or just freinds.  With the one your dating it does not change.  They do not become like brothers they are at a different level and that is how you can tell Friend from Lover.



Scriptures:
Ephesians 5:28-29
In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies.  For a man is actually loving himself when he loves his wife.  No one hates his own body but lovingly cares for it, just as Christ cares for his body, which is the chruch.

You Will Never Know


The things that people will never know that we wished we had told them.  But now we never will.  And in some weird way its probable for the best that we never tell them.

                                         You Will Never Know

You Will Never Know
My heart Longs to forgive you.
But how can I find it in my soul.
To forgive the betrayal and Heart ache
you caused me so much.

I loved and gave with all I had.
All you could do was take away.
My life, my heart, and soul.
It belonged to you and you knew it.
You took the life out of me.

When I heard your name
I couldn't help but smile
and let my heart skip a beat.
Now it crys out....
How could you Hurt me so!!!

You moved on.
Or so you claim Yet,
you call me and visit like befor.
And I find my self saying Don't,
Forgive, Forget, Fall again.

I can't afford to fall again...
I long to but I wont allow it.
I couldn't bear another betrayal again.
I Love you so, But NO! I wont say,
I wont fall, I wont Love you again...

You came into my life long ago
when we were young.
I always forgive and forget but i'll not forget again.
I forgive you but you'll never know!!

Lifes Lessons Learned

Just something I came across wanted to share wrote Jan 07

As I look back at my life. I see that I've learned many of lives lessons. Some good and some that brought pain. I learned how to love and be loved. And I learned the greatest of them all. Losing the one dream that meant the world to you. But then you realize that life does go on even though you lost what you once thought was the world. We move on and see that things can get better if we allow ourselves the time to heal the wounds. There are many of lives lessons that need to be learned. And there are rewards to each one that we do.

The first one that we learn is a parents love. From day one they held us though think and thin. We caused them 9months of joy and one rewarding day of great pain. Which ends in a night of Bliss and great Love. Our parents held us that day and as we looked up into there eyes that first moment we knew we belonged right there in there arms. As long as we were there we know we are safe. Those are the days to remember. The days when child and parent bond forever in each other arms. When the you first reached out and grasped there hand/finger to the first time you spoke Daddy/Mommy.

The bond between mother and child is one that is a never breaking bond. One that last an eternity. Though child may despise there mother, maybe even hate them (so they claim.) Deep down they know that they love her every so deeply. As much denial as one may have to there mother. They know they are in great debt to them. For they were the ones to hold us for 9months, they were the ones we hurt the most, and they were the ones who dealt our greatest pain. They taught how to do many things walk, talk, and love.

The bond between father and child is not as great as the one of a mother and her child. But it is still there. The father most protect there child. A child must make there father proud of them. And if all else fails the child muse listen wisely to there father for he has many years upon him and is wise. Though they may not act it at times they are wise to the world and they try to share it with there children. The father is the one who gives there child away into another family, they are the ones to approve of the bond between to kids that will last there life time and allow these life lessons to deepen and to expand and be taught over again. So listen to your father when he produces your spouse to be for he is wise and will chose wisely.

Though a love of a parent is great. The love of a lover is even greater. You had the taste of first love on your finger tips. Now its time to get the eternal flame of love lit for eternity. You will know instantly when you meet your lighter that they are your flame and they are the ones who will show you your eternal love. The Gods have bound you with someone on this planet. You are destined to be with. It is only a matter of time before that person comes into your life and its your responsibility to realize that they are the one you are destined to be with.

This love will be so great that the universe will disappear before your eyes at your touch. Everything will become none void when you are together. Not a care in the world. For love is the greatest joy, weapon, and killer of all human feelings. Love will kill you along with making you the happiest person in the world (as far as you are concerned). There are some who venture astray from this type of love. The love that is given to you from the divine. But with time you will realize it and no matter what happiness you realize that you can't keep fighting it and you will find away to one another. Love is like time, you can fight it, try and hide from it, but it will find you no matter where you are what you dress yourself as, it will find you, just as time catches up to you.

You are bound to your first love. You can never forget them. For you gave them your heart first without a thought of being hurt. With no care in the world for you are happy and could care little about the things around you. It built over a time and some you will never tell. But you secretly know that your first love has your heart. But once you part you know that love is your biggest enemy. For those that you love will hurt you the worst. In all the years to come. The pain is everlasting, and the memories are joyous ones. The usually do not know that they hurt you so. And its not our place to tell them that they have because we love them and we want them to be happy. So we let them walk out the door and never look back. For you realize that it was better to have loved them with all your heart then not at all. You secretly keep an eye out for them hoping dreaming of them and there return. But know they will never come back. Hence they became your first true love. And the biggest part of your memory will be the days you spent together and those lonely nights that they were there with you to keep you company. For those are the days that we cherries the most.

A love between a brother and a sister, is indescribable. It is such a bond that no one will truly understand it. They may try to but unless you are a brother or a sister you will never know. That brother wither older or younger takes up the responsibility of protecting there sister no matter what the cost. They will fight any boy/man that tries to harm there sister. Even when they know they have no chance of winning. it's the thought that there sister was hurt and now they must pay. They bond and fight like everyone else. And no matter what is done they will always be there to defend them. A sister takes up the responsibility to make sure that no girl/woman is unworthy of there brother affection. They run these girls that come into play though tests. That they do not tell there brother and secretly approve. Hence formed the brotherly/sisterly bond between two siblings.

The love between two sisters is indescribable. How they survive growing up one will never know. They fight like cats over everything. They take one another things and ruin it by chance. They love each other and yet at the same time they hate one another. But don't let the sisterly hate fool you. Though they may act as if they want nothing to do with one another they will be there for each other if one shall cross them and try to do the other harm. For in there eyes they are the only ones who can do the other harm. Behind closed doors when no one is around they are the sweetest thing to one another.

The ultimate thing I learned was that the bond of a friendship you can never understand. Why people like each other and will do anything for them and ask for nothing in return. No matter what they do, or how many times they hurt you. The bond only grows stronger. As it grows with time it only gets better. Kinda like wine is better with age as a friendship that is as old as time. To have a friend that you knew as a child and to watch each other grow and still last the tributes of life is unbelievable. To be able to withhold all the trials and pain that this world unleashes against us. It amazes me to see how a friendship can last though something that in most cases would make you sick to your stomach. A true friendship at times can be stronger than family. Family is blood but Friends are something you bring into your heart that is not already there. They say blood is thinker than dirty but I would have to say yes that is true but I think a true honest Friendship can be just as think. I have witnessed friends stilling others lovers and being mad at one another but still staying friends and becoming closer than ever. After realizing that a lover is not worth losing a friend over.

Forget

How many times do we wish to forget memories, people, things that happened that haunt us in life and sleep?
Let me know what you think

                                 Forget



I long to forget,
forget those memories
that I hold dear.
Forget the things we shared. (so long ago)
I long for that.

That which I can not have.
I long to forget,
Forget your touch,
your hand on my back, your lips on my skin. (forehead)
Your place you made beside me.

I long to forget,
Forget the hopes, and dreams
which you gave me.
My life with you
I long to forget.

The things I'll never have.
I long to forget,
Forget the things you showed me,
Love, Joy, Happiness, fulfillment.
Which means nothing without you.

So I long to forget,
Forget all the things of you and me.
To erase the pain of you leaving.
For which I miss you everyday.
Every heart beat that my heart gives.

Is a cry of pain.
When you walked out the door.
Hoping that someday you might,
Walk though it again.
So I long to forget.

You Asked Me Once

When you love someone so. You must first know how to let go for if you do not know how to let go you will never truly know how to love. Tell you give and not take that is the first sign of Love.  When you close your eyes where do you Drift too?  What do you see, who do you think off?  That is where your Heart truly lies. So is it love that we have/share. What is it that we share. (Just something I told a good friend of mine when they asked me to give some advice)

A friend of mine (male) asked me one day what women wanted and I'm like Ummmm. I don't know I couldn't tell him. I went home and a few days latter wrote this and gave it to him. Its the best one can give not being the whole female body. I could only answer for one and in the long run I beleave we all want the same thing.


                                            You Asked Me Once





You asked me once what women want!
That's a hard one there all different.
I know what I want and am sure it's the
same with the rest

I want a man:
That's not afraid to hold me when I cry.
Or laugh at me when I fall.
To care for me when I'm sick or hurt.
To want what I want.

That is just the beginning you asked
so your getting the list...

A man that:
Chases me down when I run.
Shows that he cares,
Knows what he wants,
Flirts as if we just meet, even months to pass...
Not afraid to take what he wants.

I need a man:
To hold me at night,
to keep me Safe, and Warm.
To be there for me in every thing.
That needs me just as much....

I have only my heart and soul to offer.
I have only my body to give.
I have only my mind to control it all.
These aren't all of what women want,
But it'll get you started...

Never Forget

 Sometimes in our lives we have memories that we wise we didn't have. Or that we could erase with time.  Good and bad but mostly with thous we love that we can not have.  As much as I may tell myself to forget and that I'm better off. I truly deep down wise that I don't forget. Because they were good years. It may not have turned out the way I hoped or planed for it too.  But I wouldn't change these experiences for anything in the World.

9/20/2006. I'm at a Bar Wednesday night with a friend playing pool. And all of a sudden I was compelled to write. Was hanging out with a friend one last time....  It was a goodbye for good yet he will never know he we wont part paths again.  Its amazing how someone can affect us so much as a friend in our lives.  Best friends though all your school years then become nothing but a fragment of our past time.  And this is what I wrote.....  





                                              Never Forget!



Every time I'm around you,
I get a fuzzy feeling inside.
I know we are over. But,
Secretly I want you to know,
I will always Love You.
Still to this Day and always will tell I Die.



I'm glad we are Friends.
Every time I hear our songs,
Of your favorite song
I think of you.
And remember all that we had together.

Then your gone and reality seeks in
and I'm alone once again.
With nothing but memories to go with.
I wish for one more memory with you
A kiss, hug anything
to know you still care at least a little.

Do you think of me?
Do you remember moments we shared?
Your in my Heart,
and Always will be
Never Forget.....

Remember our Mothers

2011  Mothers have always be the essence of a child's growing.  For nine months they alone are the care providers and protectors.  They are the ones that stand by us though our whole lives.  All the way back to Biblical times Mary, Jesus mother was at his birth, at his trial, and at the Crucifixion of Jesus her son.  Its written in books though the years that Mothers play a great role in our life's.  I know my mother is one of my Best Friends, I can tell her anything and I know she will always listen. 


                                                     Remember our Mothers






Remember our mothers.
In this hour.
How they were there
in Sickness and in Health.
The many nights spent so late.....

In there arms.
Feeding, Rocking, Loving us
The many "mom, I don't feel so ......."
Not saying a word they got up.
And cared for us in our hour!

How we never say Thank-you.
Or try to help when we should.
The many late nights.
The friend that was there when no one else cared.
The stick ups against the dads on disciplines.

The many hugs and Thank yous' we owe.
How we will drive through anything
To see them with family for a funeral.
How we call them when nobody to talk too.
How we call them our Best Friend.....

You Showed Me

Everyone has these times in life. Where we give up, on love, hope, desire, and dreams of being happy.  But it only takes one person to make you realize that hope is never gone.  One friend to stand by you to reshow you that all things are possible. And for you not to lose faith in the dream of finding that one true happiness you deserve.

                                         You Showed Me



I keep telling myself, I'll never Love again.
For reasons I can't explain!
I keep telling myself, It hurts to bad to Love.
In ways one should never be hurt!
I tell myself, It's not worth the fight.
The fight every Heart Longs to WIN!

Then you came!
And I told myself, Not to fall again.
You showed me kindness, compassion!
I thought in my heart, Maybe its worth a shot.
Then you took me in your arms & lifted me up!
And I knew, The world had then disappeared.

I was falling, falling for you.
In ways I couldn't explain!
You showed me I can Love Again.
In ways You'll never know!
And I Long to show you how far I've Fallen,
How much Love I now have Left.

I Long to share with you.
How you taught me to Love.
You showed me its worth Fighting for.
You taught me when you think you've been hurt the worst.
That it can only get Better From Here.
AND
I prey I'll have every day left in my Life
To show you. Just how much you did for me!
Thank You!!!!

Remeber our Fathers

2011 Many of us usually don't express how we feel to our fathers. It is possible for many of reasons. The fact that they disciple us more, are harder on us than our mothers.  But in reality was it wrong? Because if it wasn't part of our Fathers we wouldn't be who we are today. Many of our fathers have been apart in our lives for many reasons. Travel for work, being in the ARMY, or just because they are not there.  We sometimes hold this against them and lose our faith in them. But what many of us do remember is how they were always there when we needed them the most.

                                                       Remember out Fathers
 

Remember our Fathers.
In this hour.
How they were there
In Sickness and in Health
The many nights spent so late....

In there arms
Feeding, Rocking, Loving us.
The many, "Daddy, There is something under the bed."
Taking us in there big arms. They got up.
And showed us nothing was there.

How we never said thank-you.
Only "Will you stay with me?"
The many late nights of rebellion....
The many firm hands of discipline...
The many nights they stayed up worried.....

The many hugs and kisses we owe.
How we do anything to make them proud.
They are there when were in trouble.
Just a look, Not a word they come.
The many tears they shed in secret....

How things stand still for them.
We are never grown...
But there little girl, or little boy.
How they remember us...
Tell that one day, We are all Grown up....

Joplin Missouri May 22, 2011 520pm

I was at work in Branson, MO at the time the Southern part of Missouri went under the Tornado Warning. We had tornado touch downs all over.  The warning had people freaking out everywhere. My work turned the radios' on, and the Manager on Duty was constantly on his Cell checking where they were at and where they were heading. The Doors were being blown open by the amount of rain falling and the wind. It was so Dark that it was hard to just see our cars outside.  Than it happened, over the radio it blared "Hospital in Joplin MO destroyed by Tornado."  Everyone was talking about it and when it came to my attention. My first thought was, "Were is my cousin she works in one of the Joplin Hospitals."  I told the manager I needed to make a call. So I tried to call and all circuits were down. I was only able to call my Grandparents. Not exactly the people you want to tell that a Tornado hit and destroyed part of the town one of there Grand Children and Great Grand kids live in.  Took two days but they were okay house and all.

Joplin, MO
Everyone comes out for the Class of 2011 Graduation on May 22 a Day many will never forget. A event that changes one life. A way of passage many would say after many long years of school 13 to be exact for many. Was a Beautiful day to begin with. Than it got cloudy, dark and everyone parted to rush home before the rain came. To enjoy the rest of the day in celebration. Unknowing to many that the Tornado Watch would soon change to a Warning. Which in many times does but nothing every happens. Living in Tornado Alley its a normal day to have at least one Watch in the books. But this day was soon to change the views of Tornado for everyone.  Many were still driving home when this storm hit.  One of the many stories that has been shared is the one of Will Norton.

Will Norton Story reminds me a lot of the movie Twister. The part at the end as there driving and the twister is coming at them and the father is holding onto the son to prevent him from being pulled out the back of the vehicle.
                                 This is Will Nortons' Story


Will Norton was a Graduate of Joplin by only 30min before his life was taken. This is his story; They were rushing home before the rain hit. His mother and sister in the vehicle in front of them. Had pulled into the garage and was opening the door. While his sister called her father in the passenger sit of the Hummer Will was driving.  The Tornado now on the ground heading right for them. She ran into the house still on the phone with her father. When she heard him yell to Will "Pull Over NOW!!!!" as the Tornado came barreling though the town right at them. No were to run in sight of there home. The wind so strong that even with Will father holding him. He was unable to prevent Will from being pulled out though the sun roof. At this point all cell service was cut off. The last words Will said as he was being pulled away from his father was Biblical Verses his faith was strong and he was a great guy.  It took a week and Hundreds of people searching to find him.  He was found on the other side of the street from where the hummer was found next to a pound.  This is just one of many stories Joplin now has.

It was classified as a  EF5 multiple-vortex tornado with winds reaching over 200mph, its maximum width was a mile wide going though Joplin. It has also been the third tornado to actually hit Joplin MO.  The out come of this storm was over 150 Lost Souls ranging from Infants to Grandparents and Great Grandparents.  Over 1000people being injured, and hundreds of pets uprooted and many lost among the Human Death Totals. The Joplin tornado is the deadliest since modern record keeping began in 1950 and is ranked 8th among the deadliest tornadoes in U.S. history.

           RIP LOST LIVES OF JOPLIN MO MAY 22, 2011

Facebook was one of the only ways the people of Joplin were able to contact family and friends that they were okay and alive. It took over one-two weeks for cellphones and land lines to be back up. Cell phone towers were down everywhere. But they were able to access the internet portion of the Cell Phone.  There were many groups started for Joplin Missouri. Tribute sites, sites for animals that were lost, for missing people, and those that were lost. Before even 24hrs was over there was a count of 52people that had lost there lives.  By 3days the count had climbed to over 102 Dead.  People were sent to hospitals all over the country.  There were people found in Hospitals all the way down to Florida, Kansas City, Springfield, Arkansas. By the first week marker the count had reached a high of 152 Lost Souls.  There were some that were not found for a week because the Town was damaged that much.  Months passed and I beleave the last count I heard was 162 People had passed.  For injuries suffered and not strong enough to pull though.  Some from a Bactria Infection that came about during this tragic Ordeal.  NO one really knows how it happened but that we lost Loved Ones to it.
                  During the Storm and the After Math of it all.

The outcome of Joplins' Tragedy had prompted me to be more active in my dreams in expressing myself not only in writings but also in videos that I make.  I have a channel on YOUTUBE under Geer Creations and lmgeer either way it can be found. I have composed several movies for Joplin. Videos that express the towns devastation by looking at the damage of the town hrs after it hit.  I have complied a video with Pictures of the Lost Lives with there names.  Putting Names to Faces is what I was able to do for Joplin. The highest count I have is 132 Lost Lives. Some were Parents, Children, Heroes, Teenagers.  These videos have been viewed all the way across the world.  I know this because a group in Sweedin reached out to me to come to Joplin and do a documentary for there youth over in Sweedin.  They came and compiled a story with the teenagers of Joplin on how they are coping with the lost of loved ones and how they are recovering with the town. To show to there children the out come of a National Disaster and how people pull together.  Over 69*** Views on Youtube, go check it out.

After the devastation of the storm. Hundreds of people started traveling there from everywhere.  Kansas City came, Oklahoma City came, Springfield, St Louis, Arkansas, Houston Missouri all coming to help.  A cop from Kansas City lost his live during the search and rescue. He was coincidentally struck by lighting.  Go figure Tornado one day Lighting Strick the next.  Thousands of people have volunteered over the last year in helping rebuild Joplin. May 22, 2011 is a marker for the world like 9/11 is for the world.  Though this was just one town and not known everywhere. It has become and inspiration to us all.  The way here in Missouri everyone came together so fast to help find people, and clean the town up.

It was such an inspiration that Extreme Home Makeover came to Joplin and built 7homes in 7days, a new City park, A memorial site for the Lost lives and the Volunteers.  This was such a huge turn out that the rumor of it is. It was the Largest turnout for building.  It unfortunately will be the ending of the show.   Air Date is Jan 13, 2012 the last episode will be 2hrs long and will be the Shows Finally. Talk about going out with a BANG!!!!!!

Become a part of the world that has been Inspired with May 22, and the next time you hear that date you will think of JOPLIN MISSOURI......  The Same way when you hear 9/11 you think of New York and the Trade Centers, you think of Iraq and Afghan, and WAR.

A Parents Joy

One Doesn't have to be a parent to know the Joys' of a Parenting. They come in many forms. The birth of your child, there first cry, the words they say as they grow. When they start to mimic you in the things they do. They are the ones that will hurt you the worst, but will also be the ones that make you the proudest.  Secretly everyone Dreams of that day they become a parent.  Its in the back of our minds growing up. That one day we too will get to experience the Parents Joy.





                                          A Parents Joy





A mother going into labor
Is such a joyous moment
So much pain and joy wrapped up as one.
One man One woman joined forever in this bond.
A union that once took place.

The sound of a Childs first cry
Brings tears to a mothers eye
For she knows her child is safe
And alive and well
The tears of joy and pain are bless at the moment.

A father holding his child is a wonderful sight
Admitting that they are there's' by holding them tight
In his arms looking down at the bundle of joy
When the child reaches out for the first time
Secretly saying: Daddy I'm here now. And I know you are here for me.
And bring tears to daddy's eyes.

Holding that child that was just blessed upon you in your arms.
It reaching out and grasping your finger squeezing it as hard as a new born baby can
You realize how much life it has in the small bundle that you hold.
And you realize that it is full of life and it will being you great joy.
As you smile at the knowledge that your child squeezed your finger with acknowledgement.

In the first tears that are shed so many emotions flow with them.
The mothers thoughts of what her child will become,
A fathers fear of not being there for there child
The fear from both in not being a good parent
But the biggest of all is that there child will have a better life full of happiness.

Forbidden Love

Forbidden Love is a love that is normally considered Taboo. There are so many different ways to define a Forbidden Love.  In many ways its something you can't have. Weather it be simple they do not love you, or there simple with someone else.  I'd like to say there are three forms of Forbidden Love For example:
1.  Is the type that your in love with them but they will never truly love you the same way. This type of love is usually easy to recover from. Or your just simply better as friends than lovers.
2.  Is the type of love Romeo and Juliette had. The one where everyone you know Forbids it. We love each other but we can never be together.
3.  You both love each other deeply. Yet the distance between you is to great and you never get to see one another. This usually happens with Military Families. Example of it not being forbidden:  (My Parents are proof that even with distance you can still love and have a long life together. They meet for 30day than spent nearly a year apart and only had letters, and phone calls to fill there time. This past Dec 2011 was 30years for them in a Happy Marriage and 3kids.)




                                          Forbidden Love

I was hurting and so were you.
We came together with such a bond,
knowing that all was wrong,
knowing it would stop the hurting.
The pain is gone.

The time we share.
Is our time, our joy.
The many hours of Bliss we Share.
The memories are just a phase.
The pain is almost gone.

And though we may never be.
And though it may have been wrong.
I know we don't regret....
And we wont forget....
The lose we share and pain we had.

You showed me things I forgotten.
You made made me happy again.
And yet I know it can never be.
I want you to know I wish.....
All these hopes and Dreams were yours and mine.

Yin Yang

What exactly is the Yin-Yang well to put it simply its the simple belief in the balance and harmony of life. The philosophy of it is quite complicated but that is a good summary of what it means. It originates from China with the Tai-Chi symbol of White and Black in a Circle. But it became popular in the 1960's in the USA as the Yin-Yang during the Hippie Movement.  The Yin-Yang are not opposing forces, yet complementary opposites. They interact with one another for a greater whole, as part of a dynamic system.  Everything in life has a yin and yang aspects, For example Night can't exist without Day,  Light can't exist without Darkness and vice-versa.


                                            Rebel Love




You were my yin
And I was your yang
I was your beauty
And you were my beast.
Never to be tamed…
But I saw though

I was the calm winds over seas,
And you were the wild wind though the trees.
You were the air I breathed
And I was the star of your eye.
How I miss these days

Over the cliff we fell together
You asked me It I would fall with you
Oh how I wanted too fall
Into the endless pit of love.
Forever embraced in joy, bliss with you

I pulled my chute and flew
And I watched that starry eye die
That Innocent child enraged with anger
Withdrawing from everyone and everything
Because I couldn’t show I’d all ready
FALLEN

I’d fallen and couldn’t tell you
You were my heart
And I was your soul
I know that now
And I’m sorry my
REBEL LOVE!!!!!

Pandora Box

2011 There are two versions of the legend of Pandora's Box. One version tells us that box contained all kinds of misery. When Pandora opened the box a plague dispersed and doomed humanity to suffer ruin, insanity, and despair. She hastily closed the box to stop the plague but, pathetically, only Hope remained inside. In the other version the box held all of humanity's glories. When she opened the box progress, knowledge, and exaltation vanished into oblivion, forever lost to humanity.


                                                Pandora


You came with a box,
A Pandoras Box
of pain, hurt, and loss
Closed ever so tight
and full to the rim.

You asked for a friend,
with an open heart
And full of compassion
Someone to trust this thing
Pandoras Box full of past things.

We sat together with Pandora
Holding tight we pried it open
Letting go, moving on.
We emptied the box
and you cried many tears.

Holding you tight
You made it though the night.
Stronger now
You moved past Pandoras Box,
Now go be happy and fill the Box with
JOY!!!!

Never Say Goodbye RIP Jeffery


They say that Death is just a start of the Next Adventure we are meant to live in life. And that it will do one of many things for us. Help us grow, make us grow closer with others. Or turn us in to a Cold Rock of Stone. I always find it amazing seeing how everyone copes with Death Differently. I know when my Grandfather died even though I was interacting with people I still kinda kept my distance. For the fact of I didn't know anyone, and I had a lot of unanswered questions I wanted to ask and now will never get that chance to.

Never Said Goodbye RIP Jeffery


So this past holiday season I had a good friend lose someone very close and dear to him. I'm not going to mention names or what took place. But just know that Its forever changed this families Christmas Season it will never be the same. Some times people lock them selves up and close themselves off to the world. But the one good thing I'll say is that isn't the case with this family. There holding strong and moving Forward.

Check out Geer Creations on Facebook and you tube

I wrote this for this person and I wanted to share it with the rest of the world.

                                Never Said Good B.Y.E.

Though our last words were not Goodbye.
Know Goodbyes are not forever,

Goodbyes are not the end.
They simply mean I'll Miss You
Until we meet again.

But know!!

I'm in your thoughts,
I'm in your heart,
But most of all
I'm in my son I left the World,
You see me when you look at him.

I've touched many lives,
My Mother, Sister, Brothers, and friends.
The stranger I meet on the street.
I've not done much, to change this world.
But I know I left my mark with you.

In the Love you Share,
In the Music you Hear,
In the Drinks you share,
Don't cry..... Laugh at my memories,
Remember me in all you do.

For I'll Remember you.
I'll be waiting tell we meet and say;
"Hello, Its' Been awhile!"
I'll Be watching over you all!
Tell next we meet again.
