I thank God, as well as ALL of you, for giving me a reason to stay!!!!!



I send my poems for review, when I feel that they are right.
I really value opinions of others, that's why I chose this site.

In the end, the only opinion that matters, I am told is mine.
And whether I think I did well, and whether I think it's fine!

I still like to hear what others think, about what it is that I write.
I'm human, if they like it, it gives me a feeling that's out of sight.

I know that pride cometh before a fall, and that's okay with me.
God truly keeps me humble, by reading so much great poetry.

We all have the talent to express ourselves how it is we choose.
If we do it wrong, it is ourselves we let down, it is us who loose.

Freedom of expression, has been the most amazing gift for me.
It's helping repair my soul, with my poems and their creativity.

I will keep on writing, and pray that I keep getting better everyday.
 I thank God, as well as ALL of you, for giving me a reason to stay!
