A LETTER FROM HEAVEN

A letter arrived from Heaven today,
Addressed to his children in Dad’s special way:
“Dear Kourtnie and Maddie, how much I miss you,
It’s nice here in Heaven with clouds I see through.

I watch over you daily and know you’re in pain;
I’ve caught every teardrop that fell down like rain.
Remember how much love we hold in our hearts,
As long as you need me, we’ll never be apart.

Dustin and Cody, my sweet, precious sons,
I’m sorry I left you with so much left undone.
I’ll miss baseball games and days in the park,
Cowboys & Indians and catching fireflies at dark.

As you get older, your Mom can relate,
How Dad served his Country in a land far away.
God needed me more in our Heavenly home,
Feel me within you and you’re never alone.

I’ll watch each of you grow more every year,
With the love of your Mother to chase away fears.
Hold onto your faith and chase every dream,
Never slack off and plunge into life’s stream.

Although you can’t see me, you feel me I know,
Think of me often, and let your love grow.
I’ll always be with you, on this you can depend,
In Heaven love continues, with no beginning or end.

©Copyright June 22, 2006 by Lynn C. Price

Author’s Note: In Loving Memory of Lt. Brandon Dronet, Proud Husband, Father and U.S. Marine. For Cody, Dustin, Kourtnie, and Maddie: Semper Fi

A LETTER FROM HEAVEN
"PENNIES FROM HEANEN"

Dedicated to Kathy Wynn
and her penny loafers.

Every time it rains, it rains pennies from heaven
Don'tcha know each cloud contains pennies from heaven?
(You'll find your fortune fallin' all over town)
(Be sure that your umbrella)
Is upside down

Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers
If you want the things you love, you must have showers
(So when you hear it thunder) Don't run under a tree
There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me

(Every time it rains, it rains) Pennies from heaven

This thread is dedicated to all the men and women who have or are serving with honor in the armed services of the free world.
All are welcome to post herein, of course I know that this means that some people will come here only to post negative comments about the men and women of the armed services and the free countries of the world. This is the price that is paid for the freedoms that we enjoy in the real world and the cyber world.
I will not reply to negative comments and I hope that all others who honor the men and women who have or are serving with honor will not reply to negative posts either.
America was built on the ultimate sacrifice of men and women and continues to be the leader of the world because of the ultimate sacrifice made by its best and brightest. America is certainly not perfect, but she is certainly the best nation on earth. The men and women who serve in the armed services are not all perfect, many join for selfish reasons, but the vast majority are there to honor the ideals promulgated by the founding fathers.
Once again, thank you for your service and sacrifice.
LMFAO FREE WORLD when is the last time you looked at your W2 form....
other than that thank you to our soldiers(politician not included please)

That's what you get while living in a capitalistic society. A lot of kids are joining the military for an opportunity to go college, that they wouldn't normally be able to afford. My respect to them.

Now...I'm thinkin' I better get that kid's name, address and dob. It wouldn't hurt to send him a birthday card AND my note of thanks, maybe even say a prayer for his safe return, for him being in the armed services. I mean I owe that college kid a huge debt of gratitude for his service to his country. God bless America!(25 min ago | post #2574)

Indeed. Here in Sweden college education is free. The only requirements are good marks and intelligence.

Lynn C. Price
AMERICA’S BEST

Unfurl Old Glory o’er the land of the brave,
To help us remember the high price we’ve paid.
With blood, sweat, and tears, our Soldiers have fought,
Defending her honor, no matter the cost.

The red, white and blue has marched us through hell,
If only she’d talk, the stories she’d tell.
She’s flown over monuments and buildings we treasure,
Though tattered and torn, she’s never been captured.

Draped over caskets of America’s Heroes,
The stars & stripes form a most reverent glow.
Carried with honor by our own color guard,
Her job’s never easy and her service is hard.

We raise her each morning in dawn’s early light,
To soar with the eagles o’er America’s proud skies.
Lowered, with honor, as light fades in the west,
Our Flag of great beauty will somberly rest.

From majestic mountains to glorious seashore,
Old Glory waves proudly for the land we adore.
“America, the beautiful”, we know every part,
Voices in unison with hands o’er humble hearts.

We all stand together when the going gets tough,
Defending her honor, we’ll never give up.
From humble beginnings we’ve passed every test,
Our American Flag flies for the best.

Do you not remember or did you not know that your buddies brought down a 110 story building on top of a room full of children in the nursery as well as people of all races, colors and creeds including their own race?
And you CONDONE what they did?
And this time don't skip around the answer!
It both Outside job and inside job, Our US waits for the offenders and act accordingly also making seem like it Outside job! As to childrens it US fault because military invaded other nations in name of US/oil hEGEMONIC ASPIRATIONS AND ROLLBACK FROM US PNAC agenda!

John Stockwell, former CIA official (From his books, Interviews...)

It is the function of the CIA to keep the world unstable, and to propagandize and teach the American people to hate, so we will let the Establishment spend any amount of money on arms.

EVEN our People in Authority criticize US bad actions!

"Some of the character traits exhibited by serial killers or criminals may be observed in many within the political arena. They share the traits of psychopaths who are not sensitive to altruistic appeals, such as sympathy for their victims or remorse or guilt over their crimes. They possess the personality traits of lying, narcissism, selfishness, and vanity. These are the people to whom we have entrusted our fate. Is it any wonder that America is failing at home and world-wide?"

I know it too much for you to understand!

from a children of the world, see below Peace/anti-war poem

War, War, War!

War, war, war!
Who gives birth to war?
Is it greed for power
that craves for more and more?
Is it the I in you and me
dreaming to be the crowning glory?

War, war, war!
You are often born
around the table of arrogance
and power, wanting only to win
the childish game over
and against the screaming innocents.

I did take out one paragraph only to shorten it, not that I didn't agree with it.
I want to thank you, REDNECK HIPPIE for starting this thread.
You were right when you said that negative people would come and spew hatred.
'Uidiot...' claims he doesn't subscribe to hate. The opposite of hate is love, so is that what he's spreading? Does anyone feel his love for his country? How about his love for the military? How about his love and respect for the people on this thread? If anything resembling love ever entered his mind it would die of loneliness.
I'm sure, being a person of LOVE, that he is sorry for all the mean and nasty things he has said.
And 'Force Manure' says nothing that is 'superior'. If he wants a crown he can become legitimate and get one.
They are both TROLLS of the worst kind who can only pick at 'good' people.
'Uidiot...' called someone 'DUMB' but continued to harass them. Is that something a rational person would do?
You said people shouldn't respond to them. It only encourages them and let's them spread their vile hatred.
When the flag goes by in a parade, its the military who jump to their feet first and salute - because they were willing to give their life for that flag and their country. I salute them.
I have love for a nation not for the Us Military who support the Corrupted US PNAC agendas that bankrupt US morally and Financially, and ruin human lives on both sides, among nations at war, as U are Anti-Americans, Anti-world Stabilty/Peace, Anti-Human Rights, Anti_civil liberties...
