A Parched Soul by Me In life, some would say I lacked no good thing, I was loved and healthy, Young and nice-looking. Yet my soul was parched, It was cracked, dry dirt, A candle with no spark, An eclipse of the earth. Then a voice caused me to kneel, An unseen tongue let loose, "God is real...

Snow Angel by Me Snow Angel in white, She can never fly, She can only lay, still like a squished bug, paralyzed being. She's bewildered, Then why exist? She longs to make a difference. Aha! Prayer can affect eternity. Angel Prays. Joy.

A Hollow Bottle by Me A hollow bottle floats amiss in an infinite sea, A sea teaming with vibrant colors and wondrous life forms, Yet the bottle says to himself, "I am so all alone." John 14: 16 states: And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with...
