A Million Reasons

There are a million reasons that I care so much

About Rich. The first and foremost is that he’s

My best friend. It doesn’t get much simpler or

Easy than that. Then there are the twenty three

Years of Love that come with that much Tyme

Together. I Love him because he’s been a part

Of my life for almost half of it. Another reason

That I Love him is because he’s so darn handsome.

He has rugged good looks for sure. Another

Reason I Love him so much is because we get

Along so well. We also share the same taste in

Many, many things. We also like to do a lot of

Things together. Another reason is that we both

Enjoy sitting and listening to music together as

Well as watching good movies too. I like to sit

On the couch and hold hands someTymes letting

Him rest his head on my lap. Snuggling is always

A great way to end your day…Everyday.

Antiquing

Antiquing can be a lot of fun. You can find

Antiques in so very many places. You can

Find them at antique malls, yard sale and

Estate sales to name but a few. Rich and

Sue and I Love to go to yard sales and

Estate sale when we get a chance. You

Can find all kinds of special deals if you

Are looking in the right place at the right

Tyme. The only bad thing about antiquing

Is that you have to have the right place to

Put all of your treasures. One of my favorite

Things to find while antiquing are old C.D.s

And records. I am always looking for new

Music to play. Another thing about antiquing

Is that you can go on your free Tyme. You

Don’t have to go shopping for antiques on

A regular basis and you can keep your eyes

Open for certain things that you’re looking

For. Antiquing is a personal thing because

Everybody has their own taste in things

That they are looking for. My favorite

Antiques are old radios and stereos. I just

Love looking for that special piece to put

In the Living room.

As the Clouds Roll By

I look up to the sky as the clouds roll by

Seeing the sun’s just like having an eye in the sky

The sun is shining and the sky is blue

When it’s not cloudy the sun shines through

Everyone’s happy when the sun shines bright

A sunny day makes everything alright

The puffy clouds look like cotton candy

Seeing shapes in the clouds makes me feel dandy

It’s nice now that the grass is green

It’s the nicest lawn I’ve ever seen

Maybe I’ll sit on the porch with my cat

I know he’ll be happy about that

He just Loves to sit in the sun

It’s a great way to have some fun

Or maybe we’ll just go for a walk

It’s always nice to walk and talk

When we’re done we’ll find our way back

And when we’re through we’ll have a snack

In
