Marks on the Walls


I want a home marked by time
With scratchings on the wall--
Lines that record life and growth
As little ones grow tall.

I want a home marked by love
With kisses, hugs, and smiles--
Happiness that knows no bounds,
A warmth that transcends miles.

I want a home marked by God
With faith, hope, and love--
Lives that leave legacies
Of fulfillment from above.

Kathy, I think you and Rick are good candidates for creating this kind of home. May it be yours!

It's a lovely poem, BTW.

Countdown to Elianna!
