Today I spent Valentine with my first love.
My heart felt higher than the eagles above.
He didn’t say anything when he took me in his arms.
He held me close and I felt so safe and warm.
He looked into my eyes and softly said, “I love you.”
“I love you so much I’ve got something special for you.”
He held me by the hand as he guided me through.
Where was he taking me? Where were we going to?
We walked on and the day seemed so serene.
As I looked around it was the most beautiful day I have seen.
Dogs and cats were playing, birds were chirping in the trees.
Children were running and playing so happy with glee.
We walked down the street I couldn’t see where it ends.
I saw many of my loved ones and many of my friends.
I could not believe as I looked around of all that I see.
I could not believe this is what my first love is giving to me.
We stopped at a beautiful mansion, the kind I’ve only dreamed about.
“This is for you my child.” As he held his nail scarred hands out.
Yes, I’m spending Valentine with my first love forever in his presence.
He was my first love on earth and now he’ll forever be my first love in heaven.

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY Everyone!

JUST YOU

I woke up this morning the sun was shining bright,
I thanked the Lord for letting me have a peaceful and restful night;
I asked Him for His blessings and was there anything I could do,
He simply whispered in my ear, “All I want is you.”

The house was cold and drafty as I got up out of bed,
It wasn’t a house at all but a loving home instead;
I love you Lord I prayed and what would you have me do,
His voice was small and sweet as He said, “All I want is you.”

There wasn’t much in the kitchen and the cupboard was very bare,
I still thanked the Lord for it all and for His loving care;
Is there anything I prayed that you would like me to do,
Again He whispered in my ear, “All I want is you.”

I saw the beauty of God’s creation as I stepped into the yard,
I thanked the Lord for it all from the depth of my heart;
I prayed surely today there is something that you really want me to do,
He whispered in my ear again, “All I want is you.”

With all the problems I had and nothing seemed to be going my way,
I prayed Lord I owe you so much how could I ever repay;
You’ve been kind to me and my family that is so true,
He whispered to me again, “All I want is you.”

With all the troubles that surmounted they seemed to be coming in piles,
Today I feel I’ve climbed the highest mountain and walked a thousand miles;
I prayed to the Lord and thanked Him and was there anything I could do,
He simply whispered in my ear, “All I want is you.”

I lay down in bed at night and thanked the Lord for the beautiful day,
I thanked Him for all His wonderful blessings how could I ever repay;
You didn’t ask for anything from me the whole day through,
Isn’t there anything you want I ask and He quietly whispered, “Just you.”

In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. (1 Thess. 5:18 KJV)
