The greatest of oceans I sail But darling your heart, to get, I fail To all the places I have been Never amore beauty have I seen Since the day you left my world, Just your thought makes my mind swirl

You came so near But with me you always had that fear All I asked was just a kiss But it's you, my love, that I really miss By leaving, you got my heart pierced Now I am drowning in my own tears

THE ROSE

Millions of roses there may be But only one attracted this bee There she came offering her honey But after she left, my life's been lonely

Only the day that she becomes mine The sun in my life Would begin to shine Until today, I am unable to find Another rose that is of her kind

Till that day, shall wait, this bee And the 'wait' shall bring what's left to see If the 'wait' isn't in favour of me I wonder what life beholds for thee

PRAYERS

I got up early one morning and rushed right into the day I had so much to accomplish that I didn't have time to pray

Problem just tumbled about me and heavier came each task "Why doesn't God help me?"I wondered He answered, "You didn't ask"

I wanted to see joy and beauty but the day toiled on gray and bleak I wondered why God didn't show me He said, "But you didn't seek"

I tried to come into God's presence I used all my keys at the lock God gently and lovingly chided "My servant, you didn't knock"

I woke up early this morning and paused before entering the day I had so much to accomplish that I had to take time to pray

All by Myself

There is no earth beneath me, No sky above me; No wind to hail me, No sun to show me; Darkness creeping up on me, I am all by Myself.

No voice to soothe me No music to cheer me No love to guide me No one to support and tell me I am all by Myself

I grab the darkness to tell me To tell me what's happening to me The darkness remains silent, with no answer for me It only lay asleep around me I am all by myself

I carry on flying With tears creeping down in a frenzy I look straight on Moving towards an end of which would never come I am all by myself
