Marcy stood at the crossroads, the path ahead shrouded in darkness. The whispers of despair echoed in her ears, tempting her to surrender.

A poem about a bride who finds herself not a bride realizing instead she is a widow. She is seeking freedom and learns that it will come...

Have you thought about yourself as unworthy? I once heard someone say that I am not worthy. I know this well, yet even still... I find worth

Time stretched out like an endless desert, each grain of sand a moment of despair. The horizon offered no hope...

My son as he penned these words did not know almost 7 years later, they would be chosen and spoken just feet away from his coffin...

There's a great divide between us now. One unexpected. Un-imagined. Undesired. Where I am you no longer are. Where you are I long to be.

I am many shades of colors: Olive, white, peach, espresso. I came from faraway lands, across the oceans, Traveling in ships, chained or free. I have lived here for thousands of years; My people came across the Bering Strait before settling... In my flesh, I am stained with flags from many countries. My blood has been poured, and my blood has been cleansed. Who am I, you ask? I am… America’s firstborn, A blend of Spanish, African, French, English, Italian… I am Caribbean.

Illuminate me with the fire of Your Word When You speak, You speak spoken words of purity There is no flaw in You, no darkness can...

Bless the man my heart loves, Bless his gentle touch. Bless the tears that fall from his eyes; Pain will cease, for I am God's gift for his life. Bless our love, may it endure until the end of time. Our love cannot be broken, for You, Oh Lord, are ever present. Bless the joy now filling my soul. Peace is knocking at my door... Praise You, Father, for Your true blessing of eternal love.
