As I sit in front of my computer I marvel at what it has brought to me Many an individual I have met And many have come from across the sea We sit and talk about our lives And what each has had to face We tell of things we see where we live So the other can almost see our place We tell of family and things that hurt And hard times that we have had But the short time that we can spend together For each others friendship we are glad Now I sit and wonder how Some things in life I would have gotten through If I had had to do it alone And I didn't have a friend as good as you So I thank the computer for what it has given to me And the many friends that it has brought Because as I have traveled through life Friends is one of the valued things I have sought So now across the miles of land And from each and every state To speak to the friends I have made I now am anxious and can hardly wait From across the continent here at home And from states near and far To places across both oceans To the friends that live away, miles so far I love to hear them laugh out loud in joy And I know at that one precious moment I have eased their days burden And at that moment, took away all their torment So nothing better could there be Then have these friends of far so close And I wouldn't trade this experience at all As my life wouldn't be the same without those So thank you all that have stood by me And gave words of encouragement when I did need You are all in my heart and soul And each one of you mean the world to me
Come into my world and you will see What is the most important thing to me It's not the cars that are colorful and fast It's not nature's beauty as that will pass It's not the money I can make It's not the bad times, as these I can take It's not the stores or movies I have seen It's not the traveling to places I have been It's not the rain that comes pouring down It's not the bog smile you see on a clown It's not the gifts I might receive But only one thing makes my world I believe It's those people that enter my life It's those that are there to help me through toil and strife It's the ones that can share with me, each good day It's the ones that were there to help me on my way It's the ones that made bad times not quite so bad It's ones that made me smile when I was so sad It's the ones I can help when they are in need It's the ones that plant in me happiness' seed It's the ones that sit and laugh when times are good It's ones that share each day, no matter the mood You know the ones of which I surely speak The special ones that we all do seek These are the ones that we all call friend For sure they will be there 'til the very end So my world with all other things, still is not complete Until I have accomplished this one lonely feat And I will be doing this until the very end Because my world is not complete, without all my friends
On the internet I have found People who come from all around Many have interests the same as me Others are as different as can be Some will sit and talk for a while Cheerful and polite, you almost see their smile Some talk of troubles that they have had Some tell of good times, others speak of bad But I sit and listen as intent as can be Because they have become friends to me I want to hear their troubles and why they are sad I let them vent to me when they are mad We sit and tell what we feel within Telling jokes and making each other grin We meet these people all hours of the day Stopping and at least "Hi!" pausing to say These people come from all over the place Even though I know I may never see their face They all have made a lasting impresssion on me As some of them I would travel a great distance to see Some can be mean to both me and you But forgive them we must, they know not what they do So if you are at your computer and my name pops up Just PM me or ask "Hey!! What's up?" Because I will be there again and again From now on and until the very end I will listen carefully when you have words to say And I will listen for as long as I can stay But if I am in a hurry or busy and say "Not now!" Do not put a frown upon that brow If you have to an email you can send To me, the one, your internet friend And then my ears and or eyes to you I will gladly lend I'll be there for you until the very end
She was standing there shaking
And everything around was black
Knowing not where to turn
Knowing not how to get back
She has traveled past the light of the day
Now she stood without anyone around
To guide her on her way
All she could hear was an eerie sound
The wind was blowing through the trees
As low to the ground they bent
And she felt herself trembling
As the chill, to her bones went
Then she heard this rustling noise
Of something moving in the darkness
Her heart beat began to beat faster
As the fear she was feeling, she could not suppress
The sound kept coming closer
As she stood silent and waited to see
What had made all that rustling sound
What ever could that be
Then she saw a shadow
As it moved in amongst the trees
She strained her eyes to look at it
But without any light she just couldn’t see
Then she heard the noise right behind her
As in total fear she spun around
There stood this handsome stranger
As he spoke to her in a gentle and low sound
He said, “I see you are out here in the darkness
And seem to have lost your way
But I can lead your from this dark prison
If you will trust what I have to say
Now take my hand and walk with me
As I have walk this way many times before
Soon we will be out of these woods
And of this I certainly am sure
He held her close to calm her down
And let her know she had nothing, from him, to fear
She could walk with a steady stride
Just knowing that he was now there
He then gave her his coat to wear
To help warm the body that shook from cold
Telling her, when facing her fears
Always stand tall and bold
Waiver not in any decision that you make
And never question why that you have chose
The warming words that he spoke
Had warmed her throughout
More then he even now knows
Always give your hand to a friend
And help them along the way when you can
Even people you have never met
As you should always try and help your fellow man
Now out of the woods we went
And I could see my house before me
But something suddenly felt different
As it felt cold and empty beside of me
I then turned to the man who had led me back
And made sure I made the trip with ease
To ask him if he would come and sit a spell
And how much to me this would please
But when I looked around to him
I found no one standing there
No one was anywhere around
As I certainly looked everywhere
But I knew I had not imagined all this
Because there is no way that this could possibly be
But only one question now remained in my mind
Was it, when I was in need, God that guided me
