Cousins
Muslim, Christian and the Jew
One God we worship.......Cousins true.
We may follow a different Lord?
But the One true God is adored.
The way is true, the path is love.
We all seek guidence from above.
Some have strayed from this clear path
Al-Quaida is the way of wrath.
The devil temps us all you see?
All this hate fills him with glee.
He rules this world till the good Lord come,
Till our time on earth is done.
For now, we must not let him win,
with hope filled hearts we must begin.
To live and love and work together,
So that we can live forever,
In this world and in the next,
Then we'll have that devil vexed.
Cousins all and cousins one
we must win this fight begun.
Fight the hatred with true love
Make the world like Heaven above.

October Day.
Blue blue skys on an October day
I know the snow can't be far away.
Snow to the North and to the West
So far it's sunny and I feel blessed.
I sit in the garden enjoying the sun,
while leaves fall from the trees, Autumns begun.
There won't be many more days like this
So I close my eyes for the suns last kiss.

October Sky
Crystal clear and brightest blues
against the trees in Autumn hues,
Cooler mornings and weaker sun
Tell us that the Fall's begun.
Brilliant shades of red and gold
Against that sky.....a joy to behold.
