His Gift of Love

My heart is full with love of thee

touching my soul as He comforts me

Carrying burdens upon my back

He tenderly sends strength which I lack

My grief sometimes will make me cry

I look to His heavens asking why

My woe will soon leave as burdens lift

remembering His love and His gifts

Today might be sad a tear I do shed

wiping it away hearing what He said

Through Me all is possible do not fear

blessings come to you - for loving Me so dear

A Memory Tear

A Message from Gracie...

There comes a time when heart strings hum

when they remember long ago someone

who touched their life with simple strings

with lines of lace and special things

Memories of days of young and free

when life was happy deep within thee

not a care as one grew each day

learning about life in a simpler way

Time has past and lessons were learned

some are good others to be yearned

passing thoughts live in thy soul

forever remembered special to behold

A tear crest the eye, but not a moment sad

memories of joy ever so glad

words express those wondrous years

remembered thoughts shall bring that tear -

of happiness

Love from,
Gracie Galgiani

Lost Valentine

from Rhoda  and Gracie

Valentine pure ruby red
stir memories of a lost love gone
that promised to be forever from our
moment of sunset to our then sleepy dawn

Through time, hearts lost its love
with dreams dying in vain
moving to another life that knows
no special love shall remain

Valentine ruby red glow
gone with an icy cold wind
as time erased the meaning of
love that was taken from within

Cherishing thoughts for a moment
one sits alone and dreams for awhile
memories of lost love thoughts bring
tears with a saddened, but bright smile -

that hides a lost Valentine

- Rhoda Galgiani

Thoughts of a Heart

Embrace lightens the heart with ease

Love from the start fulfills one well

Shadow dance an art that does please

Captures the lost part of one’s shell

Reach out to hope and destined love

Learn how to cope with your own faith

Take a chance grope a flying dove

Don’t dangle from rope of past wraith

Love that has died shall fade away

Tears have now dried eyes see sun’s ray

Stolen truths that lied stay where lay

Heart opens up wide brighter day

Ending ones dark night now sees glow

Dawn a bright light comes with the sun

Morning beam hold tight so we know

Love is all right heart now has won
