Good afternoon Linda I created this as a gift to you and your husband. I found it challenging but rewarding, I do hope the two of you will appreciate it. the reason I made this for the two of you is because there are many people that come and go in our lives and few have an impact in our lives .But you on the other hand have been a blessing to many that have crossed your path in life. And when they do they are awakened by an earth angel. And you are one of the few in my life that I look up to and appreciate as a human being but in many ways I see an angel in you through your love for family and friends And I respect that and appreciate that so this is my gift for the two of you.God Bless you and all your loved ones they sure were blessed with you in their lives.and I have been blessed with a special friend through our poetry in motion.your poetry friend Dean......
Our Web Friends Are Like Angels
You Know They Are There Even Though You May Never See Them Face To Face
Some... I have met;
Some...I have not,
Some bring smiles to my face alot!
No matter what the case may be,
You're all very special to me.
Some are even family!
Some haven't much time to spare these days;
Yet;God blesses me with a surprise email,
Especially if I'm feeling extra lonely.
I love poetry as you all know,
My fellow poets are all so unique though.
Each one of them have their own style,
Some make me cry and some make me smile.
Nevertheless;I enjoy reading and
writing all the while.
So God bless you my fellow poets/friends and
family,
cause your feedback and/or
email mean the world to me!
Sincerely...
Linda/Mom

~*~ YOU ~*~
I dedicate this poem to my Linda.This poem almost says it all.
I love and treasure you always and forever!
My heart was heavy and you lifted my pain.
You showed me I am loved and wanted.You had nothing to gain.
Through many years you have guided my life.
Teaching me that good things still come to those that live right.
If it were not for you I wonder where I might be.
Not knowing those things that you have taught me.
I find it important to point something out.
Just something to show what this poem is about.
As a mother you have given me a sense of self worth.
To point out a place I belong on this Earth.
As a friend you have listened and confided as well.
Offering your time and sitting a spell.
As a mentor you have taught me all things in between.
But most of all setting an example of what I'd like to be.
I may not always see the right thing to do.
I just hope when it happens I end up like you.

~*~ LINDA'S PRIDE ~*~
Please GOD,can't you heal my friend?
I know you see the pain she's in.
Her faith and belief in you never wavers
...even through her ordeal,
She's much stronger than me...I can't
imagine the pain she must feel.
The months have passed with no relief
in sight.
The pain keeps her awake night after
night.
This beautiful yard with all of it's
lovely flowers,
This is her pride and joy...tending it
takes many hours.
How someone keeps so much faith day after day,
I'm pleading with you God...I don't know what
else to say.
Couldn't you please just heal her with
the touch of your hand,
Maybe it's only me that doesn't understand.
I realize I don't talk to you as much
as I should,
This favor I ask of you though is for someone
that's believing and good.
So if you pass out miracles anytime soon
please remember her,
Without your blessing...she may never find a
cure.
While this prayer may be written down...
it's still a plea,
Please help her heal...let her remember how
great it use to be.

~*~True Friend And Kindred Spirit~*~
No heart would I find truer
Linda Begley my anchor
Fine poet very clever
She speaks of our true savior
Kindred spirit none finer
To me a friend of honor
Her heart full of compassion
And real mission of helper
She is my friend and angel
Pure heart and truly humble
A lady that is graceful
A woman who is soulful
Never forgets and thoughtful
Every day she is cheerful
At birth angels sang a tune
Born in June she is special

~*~ Beautiful Friend ~*~
As I sat at my computer
Reading the Emails you send to me
A tug at my heart tells me
What a precious friend you could be.
Someone so dear and special
I knew that from the start
A friend I could depend on
That loves straight from the heart.
I ask God to take special care
Of my friend so sweet and kind
And give her health and happiness
And gentle peace of mind.
Thank you my friend for your love
Your kind words of praise
May your life be full of happiness
For the rest of your precious days.
