Generous'uns


 

We do attend a country church,

And though, in numbers, small,

Their hearts, each one, are kind and large,

On THAT, they do stand TALL.


While going through a period

Of drought, a time of 'lean',

Eventually, we came to learn

What love so free,  does mean.


An envelope here, a gift-card there,

To keep bills paid, us fed,

No one did know what others gave,

They all were Spirit led.


                                The love, concern, they did employ, 

                                       Was humbling, I'll admit,

     I don't believe, in all my years

   I've witnessed care, like it.


Whene'er we had our stove fire,

 Love true, once more was known,

One member gave a LONG TIGHT hug,

"YOU MATTER" was, me, shewn.


And even NOW, they STILL check up,

A quiet word, on the side,

Ensuring that we stay afloat,

Not 'swallowed up' in tide


And while the church (the FAMILY)

Has been named GENERATIONS,

Me personally, I do believe,

 It SHOULD be GENEROUS'uns.


Feb 04 Once MORE, this little country church 

Their generous'ty shown,

A vehicle, leant, 'til mine returns,

Their bounds of LOVE, unknown.

That's a very good question / They LOVED me./ Night after Christmas

        Look for Dan, Similar style to me. I will give the title of this ode at the end & you'll understand why, when you hear it. One phrase I've noticed past few years, Which irks me to extreme, Is heard in MANY interviews On media, it does seem. When being asked some questions, To information, give, Instead of starting th'answer off, This phrase, repeated, is. The first few times 'twas novel, But aft. a while, does tire, I feel like stretching out my hand, It sure does produce 'ire' It's heard also in general chat, In public, private too, Wherever folk do congregate  Or cause hullabaloo. It may be said on impulse, To have few seconds more, In order to form answer, For me, it irks, hearts, core. Of course it's a good question, Why ever ask one, bad ? Just give an answer to what's asked, Try not, to make me mad.(der) So what is it that irks me, That causes such aggression, That makes my teeth just grate with rage? Well, '' That's a v...

Murphy, in the morning, and through the decades.

Murphy, in the morning and through                             the decades. A 'Newfie' and 'New Scotian'  Their life paths, they did meet, 'Way back, in the '40's Soon, patter of tiny feet. A daughter, followed by two sons, Then "itchy feet" did get,  So westward they did venture, Ontario, their target. In Hamilton they settled down, "New House - new family" Our Patrick; then came Kathy, Two girls, - and boys? - now three.

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.                                                                                       ...
