Two People

We were as close as two people could be.
But then one day you took a path, I just didn’t agree.
Why did this happen?
Why did you take such a dark path?
You were such a joy to be around.
But now when I see you all I do is frown.
I hoped & I prayed that God would show you the way.
He holds his hand out to you.
But your eyes are closed, you can not see.
All you know is what not to be.
I pray each night for God to bring you back to me.
But, I have to face it, it’s not meant to be.

My Bodyguards

These are my sons. Mike is no the left he is 19. Yes, I know he looks much older. My son Wayne is on the right he is 21. I don't know when or how it happened but they some how tower over me. I am very proud of my boys.

The Kids

These are the kids in our family. The only one missing is my younger son Mike. He was in FL when we took this picture...But not to worry, I will post a picture of him next. This picture was taken Xmas 06. I spend most if not all of the holidays with my family. Who could ask for more?

My Family

These are my brothers...Sitting down is my brother Vito and his wife Kathy is to the right of him. My brother Tommy is in the gray shirt, with his wife Patty next to him. My brother Tony is in the Santa hat and his friend Julie is in the jogging suit. I have a wonderful family. My sister-in-law Kathy is awesome. I wouldn't trade her for the world. She has always been there for me. I spend every Monday with her and sometimes Tuesday. It is "our" time.

A Poem for my mom

I Thought of You Today

As the rain falls, I thought of you today.
It reminded me of how you wiped my tears when I cried.

As I watched a leaf fall & get carried by the wind, I thought of you today.
It reminded me of how you carried me through the ruff times.

I saw the sun shine through the clouds & I thought of you today.
It reminded me how you brighten my days.

I saw a mother brush her daughter’s hair from her eyes, and I thought of you today.
It reminded me of when you used to brush my hair from my eyes.

I saw a mother kiss her child’s cut & I thought of you today.
It reminded me of how you used to kiss my pains away.

I thought of you today when my son said, remember when...
And I thought of all the times we would sit and talk and we would say remember when...

I thought of you today and was sad because you are no longer with me.

Maybe I didn’t say it enough, but you have filled my life with so much joy and my heart with so much love.

I thought of you today...and remembered you are always around me.
