For over 30 years I've been writing poetry and songs. Everything I write comes from personal experiences. In several occasions I have written poetry for others such as when someone looses a child. I'm very thankful for the gift God has blessed me with. He always puts me in character when I write so that's why everything I write is so personal to me. I only pray it will bless many who are going through the same situations I am and have been facing. I am a Christian and I won't apologize for anything God gives me to write. He is my only inspiration. I give Him all the glory.

Would you reach down from above into the depths of me
