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

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

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
