You are always there when I need you,
perpetually delighted to see me.
You never once judge ,
or even doubt me,
and you do not have a jealous bone in your body.
We have been surely blessed with each other,
and how much you have enriched my life,
my clumsy words could never quite capture.
So each day I simply, and silently, pray thanks.
I love to stare deep into your brown eyes,
for there is so much wisdom to be discovered there.
And the way you playfully lick my hand or cheek,
it never fails to make me smile,
even on my saddest of days.
They say that man's best friend's is his dog,
and Sir Winston that rings true with me.
So go fetch your leash my good boy,
for it is such a lovely day outside,
and I feel like going for a long,
invigorating walk up the creek...
With my very best friend by my side.

Poetry: You're always there for me
It's Father's Day for Him
A man who I haven't always known
No, he wasn't there at birth and isn't blood
But he is

by Norma Budden
Endurance
Stalwart I am
and full of pride.
Your love for me
is not denied.
Ribbons of shame
doth surround me.
You always choose
Late in the midnight hour in the dark places in my mind
When I can't think of nothing else but gloom and doom
I can
ALWAYS THE WAY
I have not been tested sorely
Not beyond what I can bear
Because my Master's faithful
And He's always there!
