The Rainbow

Posted by Nancy Lou Henderson in Poetry | 0 comments

The Rainbow As the rain subsides and colors fill the sky, I tell my darkness goodbye Once a silhouette in a world lost of color, now walking unwavering without umbrella cover. The wonderment of the future yet to unfold, warms my heart removing the cold. With each step, I begin to smile, knowing life is beautiful for a little while. Visits: 73

Your Are Special

Posted by Nancy Lou Henderson in Poetry | 4 comments

You Are Special You are a special young man to me, and came into my life when you were less than three. Big brown eyes, brown hair with a magnificent smile, you melted my heart in a very short while. Soon by God’s loving plan and grace, You became my Great Grandson bringing an even bigger smile to my face. Remember the ice bucket challenge that we decided to do? That bucket of ice water was nearly as big as you, but that didn’t stop you from dumping that water, and I still remember your amazing laughter, Together we have played in my backyard, and I watched you swim in my...

When He Visits

When He Visits Writing then feeling, you touch my hair. Pausing and knowing, I have time to spare. Remembering then picturing, I see your dimples and smile. Wanting and praying, you can stay for a while. Touching then comforting, you bring me your love. Thanking and loving, God sent you from above. Lingering then leaving, to Heaven you must go. Understanding and saying, I love you so. Smiling then typing, you have now empowered me. Finishing then reading, the book our story will be. Lou March 4, 2020 Visits:...

Budding and growing in early Spring, shaping, then becoming colors of green. Rustling and holding tight, cooling, then shading in the sunlight. Changing and turning brown in the Fall, floating, then bouncing like a ball. Rolling and sailing in the wind, rising, then gliding once again. Twirling and dancing in the air, landing, then resting somewhere. Understanding and loving being a leaf, Accepting, then knowing life is brief. March 14, 2020 Lou Visits:...

Those Big Eyes

Those Big Eyes Those big eyes, they sparkle and dance, searching the room with just a glance. Eyes with long lashes slowly blinking, make you wonder what is he thinking. Big eyes that are innocent and sincere, Projecting peace to all who are near. Those big eyes trying to fight off sleep, fill hearts of eyes watching with love so deep. Big eyes filled with sweet love, assuring all they come from above. These big eyes of an angel unaware Come from God, so beautiful and rare. Meme February 3, 2020 Visits:...
