Sad News : March 27th

 A HORRID day for me, 't'as been,

With mem'ry issues, poor,

A Doctor's 'ppointment, it was made,

So it could be made sure.


A few tests, they were carried out,

Some questions, they were posed,

Early onset Altzheimers 

Has now been diagosed.  


The future, 'tis uncertain, 

With disease I've acquired, 

My driving days? up in the air, 

Thankful, I have retired. 


'Twill be for me, much harder, 

Since nearly 40, was, 

Before my first car did acquire, 

Those seizures, were the cause.


A test, for driving, needed

'Twill be in a few day, 

I'm fearful of the outcome, 

So asking, those who pray, 


To send some towards Heaven, 

Where dwells Creator God, 

Whate'er His will, be carried out,

The outcome, will Him, laud. 


MY preference, show compassion, 

And I will pass the test,

To keep me able, still, to drive,

And His name WILL be blest. 


Test scheduled for April 25th.  I had predicted this in another poem "Aging Fears", composed June 11th 2024

The test for driving happened

Psychological and real,

THANKFULLY did PASS it,

So glad I did NOT fail.


So driving still for more years, 

Had feared, I'd driven my last, 

I DON'T take it for granted,  

Due to my medical past.

Addenda to 'Who is this man'

Who is this Man Addenda (in blue) to an anthem by Mary Kay Beall entitled Who is this Man? sung in my home church choir a few years ago. Who is this man upon a cross By love's decree, brought low? They say He came to save the world Because God loved us so The King of Kings And Lord of Lords Eternally He'll reign Can it be true He died for me And yes, would die again Who is this man upon the cross? He is a friend to me And though I oft Him disappoint His love has set me free The King of Kings And Lord of Lords He took my sin and pain And yes it's true He died for me, But will return again

Christmas Past

Gifts of gold, incense and myrrh For that baby lying there Were not gifts without much thought, Significant references, they brought. GOLD , for riches of a king, Of properties e'erlasting ring, To celebrate the Kingly birth, Who came as man upon the earth. FRANKINCENSE came from the east For th'annointing of a priest, This babe, a Prophet, Priest and King, Eternal life for all to bring. MYRRH was given, though bitter it's taste, Preparing for the death to be faced, The purpose of His life, - the Cross, To save the world from eternal loss. The media bombard with ads., Pushing forth the latest fads, The parents now seem under stress, They're spending more, though giving less. Oh to live in bygone days Though cash was scarce, with less in pays, The children, then, were quite content And knew what Christmas really meant

To Know, Know, Know Him. {song}

To know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him, Just to walk His way, In His will, to stay, Yes. to know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him, And I do, yes I do, do you? When He died for me, On that cruel tree, He endured such agony Just so He could set me free, He rose again triumphantly And He lives in Heav'n eternally, He wants you and me there too. Why can't men see How vast His love be? Some day He'll return To take His own to Glory. To know, really know Him, Is to love, truly love Him Live for Him each day, In His will, obey, Yes to know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him And I know, He loves you too.                                                                                       ...
