I’m an all American white girl born of the human race in the USA. I live in Northern California where we keep the boys warm at night. I am lover of Jesus and a follower of Christ. I like to write because it just seems right to write. Over the hill and through the woods is where you will find me Hiking along the creek or hugging a tree Where beauty and nature become a part of me And bring me back to reality

By all means

There are poor people whose faults are easily seen
There are rich people who cover up their faults by all means
When I look at these two kinds of people
No fault is there to blame
No matter how rich or poor we are
In this world we are all the...

God helps Man

For thousands of years man cried out to God
to change his way of life
for it was to long and to hard
Man just wanted to die
In those times man lived to be a few hundred years old
Then Noah came and for 120 years people were told

But they...

Take your own life

So many people take their own life
Was their choice so wrong for them to decide?
Or was it because they believed a lie
I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye.

There are more people in the world today
So the wrong things are more noticeable per...

Organic

Don’t pee in the dirt
That’s where I plant my garden.
Chemicals will only hurt
Not worth the bargain

It has to be all natural
from the water to the soil
For each veggie plant to grow
So the harvest will be royal

If the bugs do appear

It’s not all about me

When I feel like everything around me is falling apart
I reach inside, deep in my heart.

Remind myself it’s not as bad as it seems
someone else has it worse than me.

Then I bring myself to be humble
I practice this for many years.
If I...

“If Love” beautifully written. Although it has a sad ending, it was very heart warming.

Thank you. When Jesus was born the angels rejoiced. Do you know why? They said, “You did it God!! You found a way to get down there on earth to help your man!” In order to help us, God had to come down to our level and see life the way we see it. So He can know what we are going through.

Thank you. Age was a big thing for me. I do not know why. Yet, every 10 years I had at least one dramatic experience that would unexpectedly change my life.

The two greatest commandments are to love God with all of your heart and to love one another. If you keep these two commands you shall not break any of the other ten. Loving one another is being kind. Seldom will be one to go out of their way to be kind to another. But what a sight to see. Being mean to others has no reward. I like this poem. It’s what I needed today.

thank you. It has taken many years for me to learn that my feelings do not have eyes to see. Overwhelming they can be when it’s all about me.

thank you. So many people are like that. Letting go applies to everything in life. So my new saying or reply to others is, “Let it go”
