I Can Carry Pain

I can carry pain

And still wear a smile

The promise I’ll gain

May take a while

The road may be long

And my heart weary

But I’ll still have a song

My load He’ll carry

God knows my heart

The sacrifices I’ve made

He’ll do His part

His life He gave

Deep cries out to deep

It’s not in vain

My heart He’ll keep

He’ll carry my pain

His joy is mine

His life fulfilling

I’ll be fine

His peace indwelling

My Imaginary Garden

In my garden are colorful flowers
And paths that you can walk for hours.
Hanging from a tree is a garden swing.
Alongside it runs a rocky stream.
There are also pockets of lush, green lawn
And a nook with a bench for sitting on.
It’s a place where kids can play
In their happy, carefree way.
Here I love to think and write
Enjoying the view within my sight.
