A Valentine’s Day to Remember

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Holidays45 Comments

May we hold close those in our lives
Who touch our hearts
Our husbands, our wives,
Our girlfriends and boyfriends
Our daughters, our sons
and our very best friends
Our sisters and brothers
Our fathers and mothers
Even the furry companions
Who add joy to our days
To those who have passed
We give God praise
for the love they gave
To anyone unmentioned
in this Valentine greeting
We give thanks for your love
For your presence and hugs
Let the Valentine banner be unfurled
And if we could, we’d give them the world

I will be slowly responding to your wonderful,
supportive comments, and then I’ll get
back into the blogging routine…
I wish you all a loving Valentine’s Day♥

Final Post for 2011…Happy Holidays and Happy New Year! :)

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Holidays26 Comments

Hello Everyone,

It’s time to say “farewell” for only a short time,
as the holiday festivities begin.
We are hosting, then visiting family out of town,
so computer time will be limited.
After the new year, I will do my best to play “catch up” with
posts and awards, but please have patience~  🙂

So…here’s another Christmas, Holiday wish to each and every one of you.
May your holidays be filled with peace, love and joy!
I can’t say “farewell” without saying “thank you” for all your comments, likes and recognitions.
This poetry blog has become more than I ever thought it would be,
all because of you!

Warm wishes, hugs and a safe, Happy New Year
and I’ll see you in 2012!

Lauren

TGIF :)

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Inspirational30 Comments

This is not meant to be
  a true work of art
I’m simply sending wishes
straight from my heart

For a wonderful day today
I’m so glad it’s Friday
It took forever to arrive
but glad it came anyway

So make it the best day
Smile to people you pass
Open a door for an elderly person
Move a little slower and not so fast

Just around the corner
is the much awaited weekend
Enjoy your time with family
and many treasured friends!

HAPPY FRIDAY TO YOU ALL! 🙂

Lauren

ANOTHER DOOR OPENS

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Melancholy60 Comments

She made humble resolution
when she found out the news
tears leisurely rolled down her face

 How must one feel
when they hear those words…
accept them with heavenly grace?

 In one way, she acknowledged
by speaking to God with an open heart
knowing her life was not a waste

 Yet, not ready to give up the fight
and passionately shaking her head
she was prepared for this unthinkable race

 She trusted God, but, was faintly bemused
(Believing His way was the right way)
not yet, was she parting for a higher place

 So with infinite love from her family
With incredible support from her friends
She fought with a smile and embrace

 Though, after some time of following rules
and playing this game with tenacity
her body tired and couldn’t sustain the pace

 Thus, saying farewell to her loved ones
She was given angel’s wings
for her new life of eternal happiness

Another door opens…

In loving memory of family and friends
who have passed away~
