just one more





Just one more day

is what I long for

one more day with you

hearing your voice

seeing your smile once more

just for one more day

watching your playfulness

hearing your laugh

getting that expected, unexpected hug

just one more, one more

is what I long for

a long walk down that familiar path

tossing pebbles into the creek

watching minnows dart away

watching the sunlight reflect

dancing along the ripples

just one more

moment on the swing, listening to the birds

watching the butterfly and dragon fly

as they dart and dance

sitting quietly, savoring the moment

riding in the car, listening to the latest tales

adventures only you could have

laughing at mishaps, only you could have

wiping away tears due to lost loves

lost friends, lost pets, movies that bring out the tears

guarding your back when the monsters come

checking the closets, under the bed, behind the chair

just one more time, how I long to check for you

just one more time

cheering you on at your favorite sport

cheering with you for your favorite teams

sharing a meal, even when I don't care for the choice

I enjoy the company

one more time

one more day

a moment spent

just one more

just one more

with you....











I participate in Relay for Life in the hopes that I am helping to raise money that will go to research, go to the doctors, go to the cancer centers, go to the things that are set up to help the cancer warrior as they fight..that all of these, some of this will in some way help to give someone that one more day...that can be spend with the people that they treasure the most. That grandparents, parents, children, friends, family will not be separated by the evil beast that is cancer. Won't you consider joining us? Won't you consider helping out with a donation, help that one person (or even more) have that one more day, celebrate one more birthday...
