Bonnie's Story

Life One day you planted a seed and I was born. I had life, and I lived within the world's song. Remembering times spent in the park. Knowing you loved me, though we were miles apart. Watching daddy’s chasing their little girls, I sat alone watching the squirels. Wondering why we couldn't play. You told me there would come a day. During those times mom wasn't at her best, You seem to always help me find some rest. Your promises gave me the courage to overcome. A hope the lifestyle of drugs and a fast-paced party life would someday be done. I cherish the times you hepled me through life’s storms. I never got cold, somehow you always kept me warm. As I lived my teen-age years, it’s safe to say, I know I strayed. Thinking I knew it all, I chose to do it my way. Looking for love in all the wrong places, never to forget all the faces. Oh, how I wish I’d listened, when I thought all those boys cared. Maybe then, the pain I could have been spared. I’ve learned people betray sacred trusts along the way. Very few ever mean what they say. It's hard to expect a baby all alone. Maybe people will come to understand, It takes more of a night of passion to be a man. Many sigh, as the unexpected child is the problem. Never realizing the awesome burden that is carried. Knowing your only fruit of a consequence instead of a treasure. This cost, is unfortunatly to much to bare. We become by products of choices, far to often someone elses tare Children aren't a deterent to the future. We are more valuable than some may ever see Life is a masterpiece in the making and through her, I was able to find me As years passed, I lost my first son never to know all that he may have been and done. The feeling of loss was too big to hide. Once again I needed my father by my side. Through the pain I tried to dance away. You were distant, but somehow, you helped me through and introduced me to my husb...Expand for more
and Drew. One year later, my second son was born. We named him Adam, in rememberance of all you had done. Feeling for the first time, your hand nuturing the seeds of a heart that had been torn. The fruit of the seed planted long ago Has become a life, through your love, now reborn. You’ve given me a home, full of love I’ve never known before. Brought to me a family of believer’s who’s hearts are like an open door. No longer do I live so poor, or by the world’s sound. I’m a new creation, a living note grafted into your orchestra playing a living song. I see the light of the son, and I am forever bound. The more I look over my life, the clearer I see the father I thought I never had, was you carrying me. All those times I cried because you couldn’t play, I’m forever grateful of the promise kept for this day. Though there were times I practically feel apart, I know now I have been someone’s daddy’s girl at heart. Bonnie Burchett Father’s Day 1998 Revised--Father’s Day 2001 School I had the biggest crush on curt Selix. Though I am sure now, he must of thought I was a stocker if not crazy. And if he did, he had ever right too, boy have I grown up a lot since then. My favorite teacher was Mr headstrom, I loved how he made learning fun and enjoyable, and everyone counted not just the popular clicks. I think the craziest time I had was in journalism class, when there was a boy, and for the life of me I can't remember his name, but he was constantly poking fun at me every day. I guess I had enough because I got up from my chair and pushed his table to the wall and told him to leave me alone. After that things changed for me at Blaine I guess. For the first time since the 9th grade, I wasn't the one everyone could push around anymore, but I still didn't seem to make many friends either. I guess thats ok, at least I found some peace. I sure wish I knew then what I know now!
