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

Starlight
Star light, star bright Last star I eat tonight I wish I may, I wish I might Have the dish I wish tonight. - Star light, star bright Certainly my stomach’s delight I wish I may, I wish I might Have the dish I wish tonight. - Star light, star bright Regrettably my belt feels … Continue reading Starlight
Cindy.
They were all sitting round the table playing cards. Except for Cindy. She was sitting on the floor. Pa was winning, but Kathy was close. But nobody noticed when Aunt Bertha snuck a card to her hand. Except for Cindy. She saw. And Ma didn't see it when Jack wiped his fingers on her best … Continue reading Cindy.
Where I’m From
I am from broken keyboards From Sharpies and MicroPerforate. I am from the lost pencils tucked in the couch (Sharp, pointed, they poked at my skin). 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

And to me it continuously clings. It scorns and laughs at all my pain, And my heart, its dark deeply … Continue reading She Has Left Me

One Hundred Tales
Some tales tower to the clouds; Some are simply sweet. Some have lengths that stretch so far, None could ever reach. Some tales are staccato short; Some breathe mystery. Some find depth inside the heart; Some make history. Some tales speak of shining suns, Some still of tragedy. Some speak of adventures: Of knights, lords, … Continue reading One Hundred Tales
