Topic: pictures in the sky (5 replies, posted in Poems)
i see pictures in the sky,
as the clouds roll on by,
then i think of you,
sitting up there on high.
chorus
angels of love,
one day we will come,
shining in the night,
as we sit by your side.
the day turns to night,
and the stars are shining bright,
i can see our guardian angel,
watching over us in flight.
chorus
angels of love,
one day we will come,
shining in the night,
as we sit by your side.
the night turns to day,
the sun lights our way,
in the clouds i see your image,
guiding your family as we work and play.
chorus
angels of love,
one day we will come,
shining in the night,
as we sit by your side.

hi all sorry i have'nt been active on here for a while,life seems to overtake you and there is no time to do everything,since i took early retirement after 45yrs it makes you wonder how you ever managed to do all the things you need to,have'nt picked the guitar up for a couple of months and nothing on paper either,i sometimes catch one or two of you on facebook but i need to get motivated again,anyway i'll pop on whenever i can ,keep up the good work....STAY COOL
