***Inside of card***There is a will inside of me
One that wished to be free
From the darkness that was within
Digging deep I mustered a grin
This illness will not take me down
Only so long will there be a frown
I call upon my hidden will
I am in there somewhere still
How I work to some may be odd
Before I begin, I must talk to God
I must look at things differently
Focus on Him, and not what I see
Jesus in control is what I teach
And now, peace is within reach
For, my life is not because of me
It is, How much Jesus is within me

***inside of card***
Do not be afraid, I won't hurt you
You see, I am a person too
I have a plan filled with hope
Yes, I have an illness, and I must cope
Please don't feel sorry for me
I am just like you, that's the key
We all have good days and bad
There is help for me, don't be sad
I must take medication every day
But, that doesn't mean I cannot play
I want a job, a family, to be a wife
To be married, a husband for life
I believe in God, same as you
Best of all, He loves me too
Don't treat me different at all
I am a friend, so give me a call
Lunch or a movie sure would be nice
You definitely won't have to ask twice
I am thoughtful, and a good friend
Now that you know, don't make this the end

Look at me I'm the clown
My smile is turned upside down
I joke, I laugh and I play
You think I'm having a great day
As my laugh grows louder still
In my stomach I feel ill
But I know the louder I laugh outside
It's really sadness I'm trying to hide
I want my smile turned up again
How to do that I can't begin
I started to look around and see
Why the sadness has come over me
I wore the mask so no one could tell
The sadness deep inside I feel
Then I asked Jesus into my heart
I began to play a much different part
The frown on my face was no more
No painted smile when I walk out the door
Jesus never promised a perfect life
But, today I let him handle the strife
He will always walk by my side
Behind the mask I no longer hide

 ***poem inside***
The things I do as a Mom
Would seem ridiculous to some
Late nights pacing the floor
Waiting, listening for a key in the door
It began with diapers to change
Screaming at 3:00 am, out of my range
Cooking and cleaning there is no end
Replace the buttons, and there's pants to mend
Jr. High braces and pimples on the face
Leather or lace? Frankly I prefer lace
Sometimes the hems are way too high
Belly button shirts? I think I'll die
Ears are for piercing, not tongues or the nose
I can tell by the look I'm stepping on toes
I sure don't care much for some of these styles
I remember bell bottoms went many miles
I love you anyway, this is true
It's all worth it, when I hear, "Mom I love you"

***poem inside***
I started painting again not long ago
I was scared to death I'll have you know
Could I do this again, I wasn't sure
I asked my teacher if He knew the cure
His words were to pick up that brush
Put paint on the canvas, do not rush
Anything, everything that comes to mind
Just go through the motions this time
You may not feel like it or may not be sure
Just doing it will be your cure
It will come back, you will see
You are an artist, So just be
This bit of advice has made me think
How I have let things take me to the brink
When things got tough, this one was gone
Leaving way too many things undone
Adversity for me has brought me fear
And running away, too many a tear
I think I'll turn in my running shoes now
I must admit, I'm not sure how
The words of an artist ring in my ear
Don't worry, don't say you cain't
Roll up your sleeves girl, and Just Paint

***poem inside***
There is a tree along wandering wood
I stopped to look as long as I could
A few golden leaves upon old dead bough
Holding on as long as they could for now
I stood and stared at this majestic tree
Wondering what it was going to teach me
Whether to hang on, or let go and let God
Finally along the path I did plod
For hanging to the limb’s dead bough
The leaves were afraid to let go right now
Afraid to fall upon the cold hard ground
Not certain what was there, nary a sound
A few leaves drifted upon that ground
A cushion of other leaves is what they found
Others who had come before, broke their fall
One helping the other, many made an easy call
Life must go on for humans as it does
What is before us, and not what was
Leaves change with seasons, and so must we
Look not what is behind, but what is in front of me
