Faith
Ever since meeting the Lord at seventeen, I have never wavered on my core belief, that there is a God. I have been wanting to write this one for a while. Today, I am blessed that it finally was born.
The Shadow of Your Wing
During the toughest parts of my life, I often try to imagine God holding me close. It was during one of those times, that this poem was born.
My Child, My Heart
My children mean everything to me, and I know that I am blessed to be their mother. I want to leave them with love, my writings, and my faith. I pray for them every night; for protection, and for God to bless them in every way.
The Country Church
My paternal grandparents were strong Christians and lived in West Virginia. They went to a little country church in a single wide trailer, and the services were always beautiful. This poem is a result of my experiences there.
Angel Butterfly
At the loss of a very sweet lady and good friend, I was inspired to write this little poem in honor of her. I knew, with no doubt, that she was in the arms of God.
If I Had Known
When I wrote this, I was pondering years passed, and that if I had known the depth of Gods love for me, things would have been different.
