The Stairs of Heaven

The Stairs of Heaven......

The stairs of heaven
Came down to meet me
With the ray's of the sun
Shining on the beautiful
Hair of red.........

Come my child
We have work to do
For one let's comfort
The one's that loved you so.....
Some of their hearts came with you
As you left.......

How do we tell them
Your in a beautiful place
With walls of beauty
Grasses so green
A place of peace.......

No pain,just love
Mother and Father
I love you
Grandma's and Grandpa's too
I'll miss my sister,brothers too
I also know how love
Will keep keep you all together.....

Don't be sad
As you think of me
Remember our good times
The smiles I left you to enjoy......

Remember the laughter we shared
The laughter I gave each one of you all
Remember we will be together again.......

It's never any goodbyes
I will see you again
As we meet in heaven
The Lord has promised me that........

Hypnosis...........

Hypnosis is not something that is "done" to us. It is a series of things we have all done all our lives.
Your mind is the strongest thing in your body-it can cure you,heal you,make you do things that are impossible..
Do your best to live a good life,dump those bad memories,make good memories...
Quit bad habits,gain good habits......
Learn love-love yourself...
Everyday is a new day.....Make it your best day...
To heal-heal yourself....
Control-control your thoughts.....
Control your life-only you can do it......
There is no blame game-you,yourself can change that....
Love your children,grandchildren...
So they won't have to heal themselves...........

Lavern

As the gentle bells toll
The lifting of another brother
Becomes a reality
With a heart of gold
A soft touch on his soul
With his render of peace
As Lavern taught himself on earth
To love,share his love
With family and friends
The fixer,the doing,the instructor
As in life itself
His respect,honor and dedication
Could always be seen
It reaped From his eyes
His voice and heart
Never an angry word
Always a kind word
A big hug
And (or) a handshake
With a huge smile
His biggest reward was
Jesus Christ,his savior
His family,which he charished
Also loved
His cultivation of life
Opened my eyes
To receive the peacefulness
That Lavern shared
We will have our moments of sadness
But we have the glory
Of Jesus Christ
Knowing that Lavern
Is in heaven
We will meet again,my friend
Also smile
For we will all be home
In our Kingdom
Of Jesus Christ
Be brave
Be strong
Most of all
Love..................

The Vision

The Vision

I seen the battle of the dragons
A wall of fire
Soaring thru the skies......

Their wings slicing the air
As they flew towards death
The screeches,the claws
All out for blood.......

I seen the fires from the mountains
Where the battles began
Sometime ago.......

The torture of the land
They conquered
Lay in ruins,in the valleys below......

The trees twisted and fallen
Streams burning red
As the molted fires flow......

No control as nature speaks
The power of the best
Will it be as one
Or share the glory of it all.............

When thinking of me
Don't let it be of sorrow
Let it be of joy,love and happiness....

The sharing of life
As we were together
Be it in conversation,family living
Camping and (or) fishing......

Enjoy the memories
Of our times together
As I am of mine.......

We are only apart for a short time
God will bring us together again......

I went ahead
As if to scout......

The Lord has told me
For you to be of joy
and SHOUT.......

I still love you
As you of me....

The rejoice for Jesus
Is with us all......

Therefore I dedicate,this song to you all
From my heart to your......

A Long Walk

A Long Walk



Here I am
Where I belong
Many miles of road
From front to back.......

Was looking for a place
To call home
Or  place
To hang my hat......

The journey was long
But worth the wait.....

A good woman
By my side
She guides my life
It's where I want to be........

There were a lot of holes
In my life
I just had to fill them up
And walk away.......

I live to please God
My wife,kids
Grandchildren too.......

Everyone else
Will have to wait......

I smile as I lay down
I smile as I rise.......

I am who I am
I finally like who I am.......

So here I am
Where I belong......

Hello Michael
Your finally home........


Michael VanDyke @ 2014

Through the eyes of the hunt....

The lightly tap of the trk door as it closed
We started the walk up the mountain
The heavy darkness of the night
Still in the sky......

Owls off in the distance
With their hoot's of voice.......

Only our flashlights
Paint a picture of our walk
In darkness forward......

As we crested the top
Daybreak starts to appear
I see the still morning dews
Laying on the trees and logs of cuts past.....

The colors of the meadows down below
With mostly greens with golden tints of autumn
Refreshed my spirit
Of my country past......

As I gaze,I see a fog in the valley
Starting to rise
It blankets the valley floor
Wrapping the tree tops
As it climbs higher to the sky
Trees disappear with a carpet of white.......

The only sounds are of the Canada Geese
All in formation as they fly by
With their cackle of sound.......

As I watched the Evergreens
Standing ever so still
I take notice of a spider
In his web of magic
The sunlight reflecting it's soft whites of lace 
Waiting in patience for his next meal .......

As the fog finally drifts away
As the moisture draws towards the heavens above
I look up to see the blue sky
Of riffle whites of clouds here and there.......

Hours have past,we know its time
Time for our walk back down the mountain.......

Darkness has disappeared hours ago
Light brings on the mountain's beauty
Showing off it's yellows,oranges and greens.......

Birds jumping from tree to tree
Branch to branch
Singing their songs of delight.......

The old logging roads
Full of weeds
Blackberry vines
Flowing over your boots........

The odd game trails are spotted
Footprints of deer,elk and other game.......

As we level to the flats
Farm houses appear
Cattle and horses in pastures
The ranch dogs barking at anything that moves.......

As we open the doors to the trk
Our equipment pours in
Buckle up and away we go......

With memories of the lasting
Morning we enjoyed.......
