When I'm tossed upon life's stormy seas And I don't know what to do, I'll fix my eyes upon the cross And hold to what is True - When my life gets rough and challenging- Through the dark I cannot see- Then I'll ask you for your guidance And trust your plan for me. - … Continue reading When Life Is Hard

Where I’m From

I am from big, green jackfruits The sweet, sappy fruit that smells up the house I am from warm rolls and wavy hair, From Joan and Geraldine. I'm from … Continue reading Where I’m From
You Will Face Their Wrath
Hey, readers! I wrote this short story as a creative writing assignment from my English class. Three of my great friends from the same class significantly helped out with the project.

She Has Left Me
I loved her and thought she loved me, But that is now no more. She has left me ne’er to return, But wait-there’s something at the door It is a shadow-the shadow of my grief.

Jesus Died
Jesus died and from my sins saved me, Took my transgressions on himself and set me free. And now I'm happy; I could dance all day But I'll set the night apart to think and pray.

Sometimes it's hard when friends go away, The world would be better if they all would just stay. It would take much sorrow away fom my life, For when friends depart it's like being stabbed by a knife.
