A Woman's Prayer

DEAR LORD:

So far today, I am all right. I have not gossiped, lost my temper, been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish or self- indulgent. I have not whined, cursed or eaten any chocolate. However, I am going to get out of bed in a few minutes and I will need a lot more help after that.

"I WONDER"

I wonder why the sun does not shine? I wonder why my fears bring me tears?
I wonder why I love you and then I’m blue? I care for you and don’t want you

pressured. I’m sorry you feel this way. I don’t know what to say, maybe
someday, we can play like lovers play, until then I’ll just stay, until I find a way.

Written by Florance Gardner


"MAYBE SOMEDAY"

I know we’ve had goodtimes and bad. I think it was best for us to go our own separate

ways. I know you still love me, but I can’t let the pain hurt me. I still care for you, but
we’re through. I’ve been hurt to many times, but I’ll play my part by heart. Sure, there is
pain, but there is one to blame. Maybe someday, we can be friends, without being hurt
or ashamed, with no one to blame.

Written by Florance Gardner


"THINKING OF YOU"

Thinking of you, in my heart you’ll always stay. Someone to talk too, who makes me

happy. What happened to make things turn out like this? Faithfully yours, I will always
want you more. People tell me it won’t last, but it’s all in the past. I will always be
here for you.

Written by Florance Gardner


"MEANING OF LOVE"

What is the meaning of love? Love is when you really love something or someone and

they love you back in return. Love is when he says he never wants to see you again and
you fight and tell him you love him. You tell him that you need him. Love is when you
can feel the pain he feels. Love is when he holds you tight and turns out the lights
and tells you, he loves you and wants you to be his wife and bear his children.
That’s love, even if you do get into some little spats. Don’t ever give up on love,
because it’s there for the taking and not the giving.

"A PERSON WE CALL MOM"

God has chosen for everyone, a person we call mom. To show us strength and kindness
To show us we are loved, If we stumble, If we fall, Mom is always there To help us

reach our goal. Moms give us the love, A Mom gives us care, They show us that our hearts Will always lead us there, To whichever path, That we shall choose to take, Mom is always there, Never to degrade, She loves your every finger, She loves your every toe She never does doubt you And you should always know That your Mom is the one who loves you, Through your sorrow and your pain And always will protect you, If you get hurt again.

Written By Hazel Maines


"REASONS"

What are the reasons for the way we love?  What are the reasons we care as much as we

do? Did you think things would turn out like this? What are the reasons we hold on to the memories of the past? Why are we afraid to let pain show? Is it we think it will degrade our pride? Is it because we don’t like to be depressed?Maybe that is the reason we hold each other tight at night. It is the reason we are there, no matter what happens.

"DUST FROM ME"

Take the wind from the air, the air that I breathe and the flowers I smell. Take the corn

from the ground, the food I eat, the nutrition my body needs and then there will be nothing left, but dust from me.

Written by Florance Gardner

"ONE"

One love.  One mind.  One soul.  One heart.

Written by Florance Gardner


"ONLY"

Only time can heal a heart. Only time can heal a hurt.
Only time can heel the pain. Only time can tell.

Written by Florance Gardner


"SOMEWHERE"

Somewhere out there, someone dreams of love.  Somewhere out there, someone dreams

of forever. Somewhere out there, someone dreams of happy ever after. Somewhere out there, someone dreams of one true love. Somewhere out there, someone dreams of a new tomorrow.

Written by Florance Gardner


"THE LITTLE RAINBOW’S SO BRIGHT"

There’s rainbow’s in my life everyday of the year. They are so precious to me and I love

them very much. The special little rainbow’s that are in my life, I’ll love forever. I’ll protect and take care of them. They are my special little rainbow’s so bright.

Written by Florance Gardner—To My Girls


"JUST SUPPOSE"

Just suppose the sun would not shine. Just suppose the rains never fell. Just suppose the

lovers never loved. Just suppose there was no hope. What would you do if these things never happened? Just suppose the children never played. Just suppose the mucic would not play. Just suppose you could never be happy. What would the world be like? What would you do? Just suppose these things were true. Just Suppose. What would happen? Just Suppose.

Written by Florance Gardner


"SOMEONE"

Someone to love, someone to hold, someone to play, someone to praise, someone who

will always be there for me, when I need a friend. Someone who will understand, when no one else can. That someone is you.

Written by Florance Gardner


"LITTLE ONE"

On a chilly December eve, I set and watch you sleep. As the Christmas lights twinkled,

you laid curled in a ball on the chair. You are so small, but my little one, you won’t be small for long. Take your time growing up little one, for it’s a big world out there. Little one, listen and learn as you grow and then my little one, you will go far.

 Bare foot and dirty, the girl just sat and watched the people go by.  She never tried to speak, she never said a word. Many people passed, but never did one person stop. Just so happens the next day I decided to go back to the park, curious if the little girl would still be there. Right in the very spot as she was yesterday she sat perched on high, with the saddest look in her eyes.

Today I was to make my own move and walk over to the little girl. As we all know a park full of strange people is not a place for young children to play alone. As I began walking towards her I could see the back of the little girl's dress indicated a deformity. I figured that was the reason the people just passed by and made no effort to help.

As I got closer, the little girl slightly lowered her eyes to avoid my intent stare. I could see the shape of her back more clearly. It was grotesquely shaped in a humped over form. I smiled to let her know it was ok, I was there to help, to talk. I sat down beside her and opened with a simple Hello. The little girl acted shocked and stammered a hi after a long stare into my eyes. I smiled and she shyly smiled back. We talked 'til darkness fell and the park was completely empty.

Everyone was gone and we at once were alone. I asked the girl why she was so sad. The little girl looked at me and with a sad face and said, "Because I'm different." I immediately said "that you are!" and smiled. The little girl acted even sadder, she said, "I know." "Little girl," I said, "you remind me of an angel, sweet and innocent." She looked at me and smiled, slowly she stood to her feet, and said,"Really?" "Yes, ma'am, you are like a little guardian angel sent to watch over all those people walking by." She nodded her head yes and smiled, and with that she spread her wings and said, "I am. I'm your guardian angel," with a twinkle in her eye.

I was speechless, sure I was seeing things. She said, "For once you thought of someone other than yourself, my job here is done." Immediately I stood to my feet and said, "Wait, so why did no one stop to help an angel?" She looked at me and smiled, "You're the only one who could see me, and you believe it in your heart." And she was gone. And with that my life was changed dramatically. So, when you think you're all you have, remember, your angel is always watching over you.
