The color PURPLE

what do you feel when you see this color?

Calm is what I feel when I see the color purple. I love purple in the deep dark shade that would look black if not for a small amount of light shinng on it. The color I see as I listen to hear if one of my children cry out in sleep. It's this calming color I see as I close my eyes at night, right before I surrender to the blackness of sleep.

use these words in a story, sentence, or poem.

Dismay, confusion, sad, enlightened, maniacal, truth.

His maniacal laugh made him stand out in the crowd,
Laughter coupled with a sad look upon his face,
if the truth were told many assumed he had gone mad.

Dismay and confusion held them rooted in time,
Moments later they would be enlightened,
Would they run and hide or join his madness?

Dear Larry

Dear Larry,



The day has been long and the miles covered many but you survived. Rest now, do not worry, my love will protect you. Your tomorrows number many, but I will be here to guide you on your way. Those whom you met today are more of your family and the secondary love you will need to grow into the strong young man I know you will become.

My heart filled with pride as I took you to visit your Grandmother. I knew she was looking down from heaven as I placed the flowers upon her grave. Holding you close to my heart as I introduced you, her grandson, was one of the hardest things I have ever done. My tears did not wake you as I cried for the love I knew she had for you. Although you never met I know the bond will be strong as I tell you the stories of who she was and why she had to leave so early.

Well you are a week old and I wonder what this life has to offer you. I look forward to being by your side as you discover all the new and interesting things it will send your way. I lay here beside you, feeling your heart beat beneath my hand, and know that the love I feel will grow stronger with each passing day.



For now and Always,

Love Mom

Welcome Home

A snow white dove
Settles softly
Upon the Red Roses.

Family grieves
As you
Leave them behind.

Loved ones gone ahead
Gather
To welcome you.

Jesus holds your hand
Whispering
“Welcome Home”.
