But Sister
men-
they like to see us smile
no doubt
they like us cheerful
you say
but sister-
if it isn't them
that push
us toward a
joyless state

Celebration Of Love
we celebrate birthdays
b e c a u s e
and so tonight
i help to celebrate
your day
not with wine
not with words
but with music
and with feeling
for the warmth
of your love fills me
and moves me
making me silent and calming
the storm inside me

Christmas Cajun Style
in our house we like
our holiday cajun style
we'll laugh, dance
turn the music up high
we'll cook some jambalaya
and make a pot of gumbo, too
we don't want ham or turkey, no
but some crawfish ettufe' will do
we'll thank God that
we're together and wish
that you're safe and happy
whatever you may do

Christmas Without You
this will be the first
Christmas in seventeen years
i will be without you
it hurts so bad to know you
won't be here with me
i try to think about
all the good times we had
instead of reliving your passing
for i'm sure if you could talk to me
you would tell me not to be sad
i'm not sure how i'll
make it through this other than
holding on to the hope
that we will be reunited
in the hereafter my beloved one
