30 Day Letter Writing Challenge; Letter 13 — Someone you wish could forgive you
*image source: google.com/images
I have a sister
who despises me
Over what is
ancient history
And treats my family
with utter contempt
From her own past
seems she is exempt
To my loving husband
she’s never spoken
Though I must say
his heart isn’t broken
He looks at her
in the same way
That she views me
with open display
It bothers the others
more than does me
Because of this one
thought I do carry
When there does come
her judgement’s time
Whose will God see
as the greater crime
Those sins I’ve committed
done in my past
Though they were seen
as plenty and vast
Or the one that
she repeats every day
when no forgiveness
is shown my way?
And yet I wish
she would at least try
For my parents sake
before the both die!

30 Day Letter Writing Challenge; Letter 12 – The Person You Hate
*image source: google.com/images
To say that I hate you
really isn’t worth my time
Though what you did to me
is truly such a crime
And although you continue
every day to dis’ me
I could so care less
you’re ancient history
If I were being honest
I would have to say
That I just despise you
in each and every way
You really are a cretin
as a man, a poor excuse
And waste no more time on you
’cause really, what’s the use!

Letter 12 — The person you hate most/caused you a lot of pain
30 Day Letter Writing Challenge; Letter 11

In memory of my Aunt Louise
how dearly I miss you
One always there for me
you loved me through and through
I was treated like the daughter
that was not given you
You were the second mother
that I was blessed with too
I know you are in heaven
where from all pain you’re free
And that I’m finally happy
you are glad to see
Until the day I join you
there in my eternity
I know you’re the Irish Angel
who’s watching over me!!
I love you, Louise!

Someone You Wish You Could Meet – 30 Day Letter Writing Challenge; Letter 9
(image source: google.com/images)
I wish that I could
meet you face to face
While I’m still living here
in this earthbound place
Oh angel guard of mine
if I could only see
Your image, shape or form
whatever that it may be
For I have no doubt
of whether you are there
And I know that I am
forever in your good care
Yet it would just be nice
or better said it’d be Divine
If I could meet you here
oh Guardian Angel of mine!

Internet Friend – 30 Day Letter Writing Challenge; Letter 8
(image source: photobucket.com)
However can I choose one
to pick of all you
for there is no way
that this I can do
I have so very many
new friends that I’ve met
since I first started posting
this blog on the net
And truly I do cherish
each of you out there
while I personally have started
with some my life to share
Want you all to know
what to me you mean
because you are the best
and there’s no in between
Thank you all for being
so caring and so kind
for without all of you
I’d have lost my mind!

Mark – 30 Day Letter Writing Challenge: Letter 7 – Ex-Love
(image source: google.com/images)
My dearest love Mark
I’m writing to say
Things I should have
a long ago day
When I loved you
so very much more
Than ever I told you
at any time before
And now you’re gone
angels took you away
Home to the heaven
where you will stay
You were the best man
that I had ever known
Deserving of more love
than you were shown
Oh Mark, I’m sorry
that I didn’t see
The life for us
that it could be
Today I am sure
that you’re fully aware
Of another great man
I’ve found out there
Whom I love as much
as he loves me
And his name’s Mark too
now isn’t that “funny”?

30 Day Letter Writing Challenge; Letter 4 – Sibling
So now is the time
for my brother Hugh
That in the family
is known as hubedoo
It truly is a blessings
that we still have you
After everything last year that
you had to go through
In that short time ago
you were pronounced to die
And it was on God
that we did rely
When the family did
our prayers to heaven cry
To please delay you from
having to say goodbye
Just thinking of it and
how the doctors now say
That only by a miracle
is there any way
You are here in
such good health today
And it’s looking like
you’re here to stay
Declaring that I love you
would be putting it mild
You’ll always be “big brother”
to this younger child
As every little girl knows
our brothers stand apart
And my dearest Hugh
you’re special to my heart

30 Day Letter Writing Challenge; Letter 3 – Parents
There’s so much about
my parents I could say
But to tell the details
there is just no way
I’d have to write a novel
to be able to cover all
That they’ve done for me
and it would not be small
My parents are the rock
on which I’ve been built
While many tears over me
have been by them spilt
To say there were times
that I’ve done them wrong
Would be an understatement
in the short and long
And it isn’t easy to
have to say it’s true
But if I didn’t then
I’d be lying to you
I have made them suffer
more than a daughter should
And I would take it back
if in any way I could
In alcohol and drugs
I once lost my way
For which my parents have
been often ones to pay
I don’t just mean in money
though that included too
But rather in the heartache
that I have put them through
Yet I have been forgiven
and my slate is clean
For my complete turn around
they have now clearly seen
Although my love of them
I did not always show
It is my hope and prayer
that I’ve made them know
And I take the time
in my life today
To try to show them
in every kind of way!!

I love you very much Mom and Dad!
Thanks for always being there for me!!

30 Day Letter Writing Challenge – Letter 2; Husband
What can I ever say
I’ve not said before
About the one man
that I love and adore
God sent you back
’cause I needed you more
Than the heaven that
you were aching for
-
My heart’s forever yours
my darling, my dear
And of that one fact
let me be perfectly clear
Whenever the end of
our lives grows near
Together we’ll be in
the next no fear
-
But now just because
you float my boat
It does not mean
that you can gloat
Yes, I am kidding
you smart old goat
When all my love
to you I devote!

(I had to add the last stanza because my darling husband was being ficious when I was reading this to him and suggested a line like – And to me it is clear, I deserve to drink a beer – to which I added – All because my little dear, I had to put up with you here! Smarty pants, lol!!)
