Rebecca Underwood Comming, Georgia

I have been writing poetry since I was 14 years old. I am a cashier at Publix Supermarket. I like to go to church. I also like to sing, read, and write songs. I am part of Compassion International sponsorship of children over seas. I've had my poetry published in the local newspaper and in The National Library of Poetry. I believe that poetry writing is the greatest gift that God has given me. My favorite saying is, "Good things happen through Christ."

Dying We have had a terrible weekend, Now everyone is crying, Over a very good friend, Who has just got done dying. I didn't know her very well, But it makes me very sad, to know that someone so young, Had died in the last few days. She had lots to live for, And friendships that would last forever, Will her friends forget her, I think they will forget her never?

Don't Look Back Don't look back, To see tomorrow, Because it will only, Bring you sorrow. But look towards the future, It will bring happiness, If you remember the bad things, Ask God for forgiveness.

Three Eyes I have a good friend, His name is Three Eyes, I can always trust him, Because he never lies. People get scared, When he is around, Then he cries, And falls to the ground. He wants to have friends, On this planet earth, But the earthlings Treat him like dirt. If you have time to spend, With my friend, Then let him know, And this is the end.
