“I’ve Got A Feeling”
I’ve got a Feeling
Little ones without a home or a bed
Children should be in our care
Not a place to lay their weary heads
God, the burdens they must bear
On the streets, day or night
Corruption is in the crowds
Not ever knowing the people’s plight
Not knowing the ones who cry out loud
Homeless, ragged, hungry, and sad
God, how could we allow things to get so bad?
I’ve got a feeling
Heaven’s angels are crying there
For we have lost our willingness to care
Look at all the ages in despair
I’ve got a feeling
The day of reckoning will come
The wrath of God will apply to some
People, some young, some old
Will find their place at heaven’s gate
The righteous will be brought into the fold
While the merciless will have to wait
I’ve got a feeling
Heaven’s angels are crying there
For we have lost our willingness to care
Look at all the ages in despair
I’ve got a feeling
Jesus is there

“Here I Am”
Here I Am
Here I Am
I am only a woman
Nothing special
With baggage of life’s trials
One who hugs my pillow at night
For I am so afraid
One who cries out in the night
But no one hears
Here I Am
Am I worth your thoughts?
Am I the one?
Do I have a chance to touch your heart?
Whatever God’s plan is
Here I Am
Impatient for the right man to find me
I stumble
And am not certain of my direction
Yearning to share what is in my heart
Eager to share my thoughts and dreams with another

"The find of the year" One of many stories...They just think I'm an AIRHEAD, but I'm just unusual!
Reblogged from Barbara C Rowe Author:
Available on amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/You-Must-City-Barbara-Rowe-ebook/dp/B00F47E68G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1389983705&sr=8-1&keywords=barbara+c+rowe
During the renovation of my country home, many situations presented themselves. All situations, unusual. On this one quest of mine to find some Indian relofact, I did almost everything short of a TP. We lived close to one of my husband relatives that we had become good friends. All the time, she would give me history lessons and stories of the mountains and her family, including the immediate surrounding area.
"Do they really exist?" A Husband To Cherish
Reblogged from Barbara C Rowe Author:
I have posted this before, but I have another reason for posting this today.
I am very protected by my husband because of an attach on me years ago
and the fact that I seem to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. He says
I don’t have danger radar. Where we live is not the greatest because of
housing, so there are some unsavory people in the area.

"Wounded Warrior" Something to "ALWAYS" Remember
Reblogged from Barbara C Rowe Author:
A Thought For The Day “Wounded Warrior”
We as the American people have so much to be thankful for, but trouble is brewing. The sacrifices our men and women have made for our freedom is inconceivably costly. They give an oath to our country and its people, but our politicians will not allow them to pray, openly. FREEDOM of religion. I THINK that is in the constitution, but it is not honored by those in leadership.
Long Past Due "Lost Love"
Reblogged from Barbara C Rowe Author:
I have been away from my blog site for some time now and I hope I've not lost my beautiful friends and followers.
We reflect on when times were not so hard or in years of our youth...another time...another place. I don't refer to my own personal life now, for it is well and good.
All of us with any age on us have loved deeply before the one you are with now...or at least most of us.
Let us “TAKE BACK–In God We Trust & One Nation UNDER GOD”
I wanted to say something wise and special to you; Something to make you think and say some serious prayers. There are so many who sacrifice for our freedom and liberties. Our nation was founded UNDER GOD, that this nation would be as ONE. It is not. Our Children are fighting for us, yet many of our leaders are not. You Pick which ones, for there is a large selection to choose from. Read this and it will “I hope” make you think a little.
Putin’s Speech on Feb. 04, 2013
This is one time our elected leaders should pay attention to the advice of Vladimir Putin….how scary is that?
“In Russia live Russians. Any minority, from anywhere, if it wants to live in Russia, to work and eat in Russia, should speak Russian, and should respect the Russian laws. If they prefer Sharia Law, then we advise them to go to those places where that’s the state law. Russia does not need minorities. Minorities need Russia, and we will not grant them special privileges, or try to change our laws to fit their desires, no matter how loud they yell ‘discrimination’.
We better learn from the suicides of America, England, Holland and France, if we are to survive as a nation. The Russian customs and traditions are not compatible with the lack of culture or the primitive ways of most minorities. When this honorable legislative body thinks of creating new laws, it should have in mind the national interest first, observing that the minorities are not Russians.
The politicians in the Duma gave Putin a standing ovation for five minutes.
Our military are fighting for our (meaning the American people) rights that this nation was founded and built on, not what some politicians want it to be.
I love You All, Barb

“Wild Spirit”
Wild Spirit
As the stallions that run the open range
This free spirit goes through life with the same vigorous drive
One not of the ordinary mold
He chooses wisely, acts with integrity, stands with honor
As his mother’s child
He nurtures the one who gave him life
As a father,
He shows unconditional love and has a protective nature
Wild spirit, run free, stand tall, be one with the elements of life
He’s graceful as the deer, his sight is keen as the hawk’s
He hunts like a wolf and is strong as a bear
Near a fire and alone in his thoughts
He’s one with nature
A man is not a man by his deeds or his size
But by honor and responsibility, protecting what is his
And by the goodness of his heart
He exhibits great passion for life and love
Wild spirit, run free, stand tall, be one with the elements of life
There is no compromise in his word, no malice in his intent
No hesitation in his desires
One who gains his respect and trust is blessed with friendship for life
One who touches his heart will forever be loved and cherished
Wild spirit, run free, stand tall, be one with the elements of life

A True Love Story “I found my Romeo”
I thought I would share something with you, for the people out there who are skeptical that a true soul-mate exists. I have loved several men in my life and all still have that special place in my heart. If you truly love, I believe you forgive all the bad things and remember why you were with them in the first place. After being single for several years and going through the nightmare of dating MR. Wrong. No offence to my male readers and followers out there. I finally quit looking and decided I was going to try to make someone’s day and (fake it, until I made it). You’ve heard the saying. I got all dressed up in my usual dress and high heels. I do love my high heels! First stop was the convenient store to gas up my car. I was a local and went to the same place to get my gas.
Now, this you don’t know about me. I am friendly, but careful with men because of my past experiences. I usually went for the preppy look, with a few exceptions, like my deceased husband, a fiance’, but as a rule, the clean cut was my preference. I’m standing in a long line, some people knowing who I am, feeling extremely depressed. I see this man in the line 2 behind me. Thought???? He is attractive. Not my type, but gorgeous in a Steven Segal sort of way.
OK, remember my plan to fake it? I thought, this man belongs to someone, is married, or something, but definitely, taken. I turn around and ask him if (Pan) was his actual name. He responds with a smile and says it was a nickname. I turn around, thinking, (How could I be so forward?). Then I turn around the second time and ask him if he is taken or spoken for. Can you believe THAT? Lord have mercy, I was loosing it! He replies he is very unattached. I swung around realizing the whole store was pretty darn quiet because they were watching us.
After realizing how foolish I was being I turned around again, with the intention of restoring some pride and composure by telling him I didn’t usually do things like this and all about my moto for the day about ( make someone elses day.) Before I could trun around, he asked, “Do you want my number?”. Not, can I have yours, as you usually would hear. I am so rattled I told the person at the counter I would be at pump 6 and ran like the dickens outside to get my gas and go back home, lock myself in, until I regained my sanity. Forget that crazy idea I had. As I was pumping my gas, there he was. Now what? We exchange numbers. I begin drilling him and telling him ALL the things I will not put up with and asking him if he does this and that. A total moron! Do you think?
To make sure I made a total, complete spectical out of myself, I said,” I love your long hair.” He smiled. No answer! So I said, ” I love your beard and mustache, and I love your hairy chest.” That was totally over the top. He said, “Well, I’m glad you like it.” Then one final question, “Can you take off your shades, so I can see your eyes?” He had me at that point. A Biker. A darn biker. I never went for bikers.
That night he arrived at my apt. after a phone call and recited what Romeo said to Juliet when she was on the balcony in the play. My balcony was on the top, so my neighbors saw and heard everything. That was the only man they had ever seen go into my apartment, except my sons.
Unbeknown to me, until my engagement, 3 months later, that the woman had bet the men I would marry the man who they had seen that night. $50.00 was the wager. The men said, “Not Miss Barb, she’s too prim and proper!” They paid up.
I have been married over 7 years to that man, who I should of married the first time around. Total opposites, but a true balance. Ladies, God picks your mates far better than you could ever. We have this preconceived notion of what we want, but maybe not we need. Have Faith, there are still a lot of good men out there. Just STOP looking.
