Wisdom, Lord, bestow on me,
Understanding, help me be:
Lord, help me to do your will,
How to please you help me see.

Help me to be courageous,
And stand for what is right:
How I'm able to serve you,
Give me the needed insight.

In clarity help me see
Gentle help my heart to be:
From me keep away evil,
And bestow on me mercy.

Dar Lord, help my heart be kind,
Give me things I'm in need of:
Needed strength give to me Lord,
And your never- ending love.

Blessed Mother, please help me,
Through another day on earth;
Help me love God, as you do,
Also help me see my worth.

To God and also neighbors,
From my heart, help me show love;
When I get mad or angry,
Have Christ calm me like a dove.

Give me the strength and courage,
To love God the way you do;
And my brothers and sisters,
Lovely Lady, dressed in blue.

Blessed Mother, please help me,
To live my life, more like thee.

Under A Summer's Rainbow
Under a summer's rainbow,
A lovely sight does appear.
A lovely kaleidoscope,
To the gold *** does adhere.

Found around the *** of gold,
Leprechauns there dance a jig,
.Like a pass between mountains,
Their smiles too are also big.

On the arch of the rainbow,
Should a swing be stationed there,
Under a summer's rainbow,
Would one's weight the rainbow bear?

Under a summer's rainbow,
A delightful breeze does blow.
Made this poem out of one of mine laying around 11-24-2022

Bonito's Awesome View
A report has been cited,
On Bonito Avenue:
Of apple blossoms profuse,
Waltzing making quite a view.

From the heart of a good friend,
Sunlight travels from her heart:
Igniting every petal
Like a neon work of art.            

To see a sight such as this
Anchormen come here to view.
For sights like this they'll go far,
This one they long to pursue,

Lovely as this is a sight,
In my friend I take delight.

Dear Blessed Mother, Mary,
God's calling help me to live.
Help me surrender to God,
Courage to me Mother give.        

Mother, help me not worry,
What others might think of me,
Like you help me surrender,
My life to God totally.

I know God wants what's best for me.
Happy he wants me to be.
Help me live as he calls me,
And open to his mercy.

At times when people harm me,
Show me how I'm to forgive.  
As you lived upon the earth,
This way show me how to live.
Mary Anne it is your heart,
That is gentle, sweet and kind:
You've brought warmth into my heart,
Imparting in it bright sunshine.

If pirates knew about your heart,
They'd want it instead of gold:
Your heart is one of a kind,
I never find it get cold.

Your love came into my heart,
Making it so brightly glow,
I'm thankful for a friend like you,
I thought this you'd like to know.

Mary Anne you are a gem,
It is your heart that I prize:
It's truly an awesome one,
I hope this you realize.

I treasure your heart Mary Anne,
And of it I'm a big fan.
Having a friend such as you,
Iam sure blessed Mary Anne,
