Dreams 
Playing in fields of gold, sweet memories of the past,
Much like dreams of life that never seem to last.
So many hopes and dreams, plans of all that we are to be.
Get lost in the day to day and give way to reality.
The fairytales of love that once were held so strong,
now shadows of the heart, from choices that were wrong.
The dreams of the youthful heart turn to memories of the mind.
Like pieces of a puzzle you search desperately to find.
So you take the mistakes you've made, and your heart
that you can't trust,
You face each passing day and you do what you must.
In time the lines between laughter and tears and the
happiness you now chase,
Have scarred your heart and left their mark as the
lines upon your face.
It is only when life is half over that we really begin to live.
When we forgive our failures of the past, and give all
we have to give.
When you realize happiness is not locked in dreams
of the past,
But in the precious day to day and making memories last.
Some times in the journey of life we are happy, but we
just don't know,
It's only found inside the heart when we learn to truly let go.
We must let go of the past and the dreams it holds before
we begin to see,
That dreams are just that, and joy is hidden in life's reality.
Love, happiness, and peace in life are a choice not just
emotions that we feel.
The blessings that God gives us, thats the things that are real.
We realize we are happy, when to His word we turn and
to his voice we heed,
God may not give you all you want, but exactly what you need.

THE ROAD OF LIFE
Dedicated To : Todd Burdette, My Brother
Sometimes it is so dark searching for the light.
Then in a flash, everything in life
is so bright;
BUT;
There are turns and twists that are violent and true.
On this long road,
we travel, just me and you
Sometimes you take a wrong turn and end up
in an endless sea of blue,
but you must not give up
because I'll be searching for you.
An easy voyage was not promised unto us all,
but a safe arrival from
our deepest fall;
Sometimes, you must carry a painfully heavy load,
But We Must Always
keep traveling, on our life's road.
For at the end of your travels, peace and happiness
you'll find,
in a world that is sweet ...
with a master that is kind.
