Proverbs 18:10
The name of the Lord
Is such a strong tower,
No evil can conquer it,
Nor rob it of its power
And all of the righteous
Find refuge in its strength
And safety from the enemy
From the fiery darts he sends
For His name is so mighty
No other is the same,
A strong and mighty fortress,
Forever shall remain.

A Glimpse
As I ride off in the van with a stranger, I am quiet. I sit in the front with her by my side. She is a stranger, but I find comfort in her kind words and start to open up. I am going to a group home. My mom has had enough of my rebellious behavior and has been threatening to put me in foster care for as long as I can remember. I also remember her screaming at me, "You’re just like your dad!" Or "You're just like your aunt!" Or "You're just like your crazy Grandma!" That was the total list. My dad is the main one though, because he is so bad and I am just like him. My mom finally got her way...

Moments in change
Life as a young mom
I had arrived at the Mount Vernon Hospital about ready to go into labor, filled with much hope and concern, now I am looking out the window, couldn’t I have done this yesterday or tomorrow? I think. The nurse walks in; she had previously checked me to see how dilated I was.
“Well it looks like you are not that dilated; you might need to be sent home.” She said.
I am so thank full for her words, just the thing I wanted to hear. I had wanted to go into labor earlier that morning, but not now. I’m all ready to do this another day, putting it off is fine...

HOPE
When I gaze into the midst with my wandering eyes, birds chirping while in hidden disguise, what lies beneath me put to rest. What lies before me... is never ending.

I know it wasn't death when you took your last breath
The sun radiantly shining now at your every step..
How many times after you left this place, I thought about how I could have said good bye... before God took you, before he allowed your body to die.
We loved you so much
A love I felt for you , a love 7 years ago, and still untouched
through out the years, its a love in my heart that never could go, and it never will
How I feel will never compare to GOD's love for you... That is even more intense, never breaking and real; I know you are at peace and in GOD's...

LITTLE WONDER AMBER WINGS
Look at your face in awe
In a state of grace
Many more years to go
You felt nothing left to show
What were you thinking?
When you left this place?...
In a state of wonder, I want to draw your beautiful face.
I could have helped you
Why did I not know?
Where did you go?
An Angel with wings,
God forgives, your beauty gleams @ your breath is now free
Im so sorry little wonder
Im so sorry for life's ills and disgust
You have so much beauty, how could you have given up?
In a state of grace
Many more years to go
You felt nothing left to show
What were you thinking?
When you left this place?...
In a state of wonder, I want to draw your beautiful face.
I could have helped you
Why did I not know?
Where did you go?
An Angel with wings,
God forgives, your beauty gleams @ your breath is now free
Im so sorry little wonder
Im so sorry for life's ills and disgust
You have so much beauty, how could you have given up?

One Place
What’s here is what stays so real
The taste the feel
Distant dots surrounding me screaming
Your curses in bloody night chills
Mocking your steal
Horrible nightmare Dreaming
Deceiving smiles it’s your time you’re gleaming
As he slaps me down the disgusting despair trickles
Desperately searching in your eyes
Grace as soft as lead
Never stay in one place;
It's ALWAYS dead!
The taste the feel
Distant dots surrounding me screaming
Your curses in bloody night chills
Mocking your steal
Horrible nightmare Dreaming
Deceiving smiles it’s your time you’re gleaming
As he slaps me down the disgusting despair trickles
Desperately searching in your eyes
Grace as soft as lead
Never stay in one place;
It's ALWAYS dead!
