       The Key to Living  Is Giving !
A very favorite story of mine
is about TWO SEAS IN PALESTINE___
One is  a sparkling sapphire jewel,
its water are  clean and clear and cool,
Along its shore the chilren play and travelers seek it on their way,
And nature gives so lavishly
her choicest gems to  the Galilee . 
But on to the south the jordan flows. .
into  a sea where  nothing  grows,
No splash of fish ,no singing bird,
no children's laughter is ever heard,
The air hangs heavy all around
and nature shuns this barren ground . . .
Both seas receive the jordan's flow,
  the water is just the same , we know,
But one of the seas, like liquid sun
,can  warm the  hearts of everyone,
while farther south another sea
is dead and dark and miserly__
It takes each drop the jordan brings
and to each drop it fiercely clings . . .
It hoards and holds the jordan;s waves
until like shackled, captured slaves
The fresh, clear jordan  turns to salt
and dies within theDEAD SEA'S vault . . But the jordan flows on rapturously
as it enters and leaves the Galilee,
For evry drop that the jordan gives becomes a laughing wave that lives  ___
For the galiee gives back each drop,
its waters flow and never stop,
And in this laughing ,living sea
that takes and gives so generously
We fine the way to to life and living
is not in keeping, but in giving!
Yes , there are two palestine seas and mankind is fashioned ater these!

The Golden Chain of  Freindship

friendship is a golden chain,
The links are friends so dear,
And like a rare and precious jewel
It's treasured more each year . . .
It's clasped together firmly
With a love love that's deep and true,
And it's rich with  happy memories
And fond recollections, too  . . .
Time can't  destroy its beauty
For , as long as memory lives,
Years can't erase the plesure
That the joy  of  frindship gives . . .
That can't be  bought or sold,
But to have  an understanding  friend
Is worth far more than gold . . .
And the Golden Chain of Friendship
Is a  strong and  blessed tie
Binding kindred heart together             As the years go passing  by.
