Poetry by Traci

"God saw you"

God saw you getting tired,

And a cure was not to be,

So he put his arm around you,

And whispered come to me,

With tearful eye’s we watched you,

And saw you pass away,

And though we loved you dearly,

We could not make you stay

You8r golden heart stopped beating,

With gentle hands at rest,

God broke our hearts,

To prove to us that he only take the best.

"A Ghosr up in the stars"

I look up in the stars,

and I always see a ghost floating in the stars above,

I'm not afraid ot the ghost though,

I know that the ghost is harmless,

Because when I look up in the sky, I see a beatiful woman,

Whose name is Patty Kay Mork and she is my mother,

Every time she looks down at me I see sorrowness and sadness,

becuase she cannot be with my sister and I,

Even though she is in a wonderful place up above,

she gets sad when I'm sad,

she feels my pain wven though she is not longer living,

she sees what I see,

she is a part of me even though I cannot see her for long,

she follows me where I go and she makes sure I don't get hurt,

I always used to think it was my fault that she died,

And I still do sometimes,

But I finally realized that no matter what she wik alwys be in my heart,

Even though it feels like I have a big gap in my heart,

I will always regret not being able to talk to her,

Or being able to tell her how I feel,

Because I don't need to tell her how I feel,

Because she already knows how I feel,

and what my emotions are,

Because she feels what I feel.

"The Way you make me feel"

The look in your eye's makes my heart do flips,

The way you smile makes your eyes sparkle,

The way you laugh makes me feel so good,

When you are neat I can feel your heart beat,

When you are far I can see you in the air,

When I see you it makes my heart ache with happiness,

When you're standing by me you make my heart skip a few beats,

When you leave my heart breaks in half,

You know the way you make me feel.

"Don't worry you're not alone"

I will always be by your side,

No matter what,

You can depend on me,

Because I'm keeping my word,

If you need someone to help you through your tough times,

If you get upset about something you can count on me,

Because I will be there to comfort you,

Don't worry, you're not alone,

Because you will always have a friend to come to.

"God Above"

Did you know that God above,

Created you for me to love,

because He knew you were the best,

cause He knew I'd love you the best,

if I should die and go above,

I'll wait for you by the golden stair,

I'll give the angels back their wings,

golden harps, and evrything,

and just to prove what love can do,

I'd even go to hell for you.

"Sisters"

Sisters stick together,

When each other are in low places,

Dersperate, depressed, or havin sad memories,

But sisters love each other if they're near or far,

Sisters comfort each other when they're in low places,

Most of all sisters are always there when you need comforting,

So remember you always have a sister's shoulder to cry on if you are upset,

You will always have a sister to help you through the years,

You will always have a sister to count on.

"Knocking at my Door"

Nobody around, just me and God knocking on my door,

I wish I wasn't so nervous about God knocking at my door,

I'm between a woman and a child,

I'm not quite reat to open my door that will end the rest of my life,

For eternity and to start my after life,

Sometimes I'm tempted to open the door to God's knock,

When I have lived my life,

I have too much life left in me to let God take it away from me,

I'm not in a hurry to die,

I would like to see my mother someday though,

I know when God comes knocking on my door again I will be ready,

But for now I am not ready to die yet,

I will be ready next time and I will be waiting for my mother to come by and see me.
