The Golden Years : 12th June 1964 - 2014

The Golden Years
12th  June 1964 - 2014






The setting was a country church,
Euphoric and dignified,
The second Friday of the month,
There came a young June bride.

She sauntered slowly down the aisle,
In radiant white, was she,
Preceded by her bridesmaids,
Her flower girl made that three.

Beth, Gail and Linda entered,
Adorned in fine mint green,
Thereafter, came Patricia,
'Twas the finest sight e'er seen.

While waiting at the altar,
Escorted by his three,
Stood Glen, Ross, Carl and Murray,
Glen's face conveying glee.

Then there, the young Pat Karges,
In finery so grand,
Stood proud with Glen Doerbecker,
And vowed to take his hand.

In sickness, health and poverty,
All these you will have known,
Glen and Pat were bonded
And seeds of love were sown.

So now, this love that started,
Has been with you for aye,
Hence you are celebrating

Your Golden Wedding day.

Congratulations

Christmas Past

Gifts of gold, incense and myrrh For that baby lying there Were not gifts without much thought, Significant references, they brought. GOLD , for riches of a king, Of properties e'erlasting ring, To celebrate the Kingly birth, Who came as man upon the earth. FRANKINCENSE came from the east For th'annointing of a priest, This babe, a Prophet, Priest and King, Eternal life for all to bring. MYRRH was given, though bitter it's taste, Preparing for the death to be faced, The purpose of His life, - the Cross, To save the world from eternal loss. The media bombard with ads., Pushing forth the latest fads, The parents now seem under stress, They're spending more, though giving less. Oh to live in bygone days Though cash was scarce, with less in pays, The children, then, were quite content And knew what Christmas really meant

Respiration

Sitting in the hospital  Well, sitting up, on bed, I had smoke inhalation,  The paramedics said. I'm just up for a check up, I feel fine, otherwise, I'm trying really hard not to Sing " smoke got in my eyes" A stove fire in the kitchen So glad " fire blanket" had,  Know not what will be damaged Trusting it's not THAT bad. Think paramedics, cautious, A full lung check to give, T'ensure I will keep breathing,   Essential, that,  to live. Liz didn't breathe as much smoke, Thought not, I'd breathed a lot, 'Tis best though, to be cautious, Than later on, be caught. Been told that it's not too bad, Be getting home anon, Though puffer, medication, For while, putting me on.
