Common Ground

Teresa L. Smid 1981 (Richmond)



Twisted minds are so cruel, when they go out the pack rules, to get a life so beautiful. What is your secret? "Oh, this old thang? I believe Macy's had a sale and I went for it. As we sit and ponder, I look there, yonder. Oh, Yoder, what may I see? The cheese wheel looks great! We look to see if we have anything in common. Both innocent and naive, a kiss is a marriage vow misunderstood.
One, two, three, little steps a baby grows up slowly, soon to be six, a year to wonder. I love you all dearly, sweet cousins of mine. All of you pitter-patter and are all grown.
Playing dinosaur, crawling with you for the first time. From your 1st time out, I was there. Love ya'll dearly, to my inner core, these are the little things in life I adore. My heart skips a beat, when I see you. I love my family, this I want known! Now we must get along,be rich in spirit not poor in spirit when we convey along. I love all of you, stop, smile, and think of how hard life would be without your family ties.

I live to write and write to live. I love kittens, puppies and anything adorable like babies. I plan to walk down the aisle with my fiance. Sorry! Taken! But one key to life is forgive and your heart will gain true love; agape love. more…
