This earth                                    
can have you                  
drift into the sea.          
Searching,
wandering
for an answer.
When you are lost,
call on God,
He will make you free.

a world beyond her eyes
full of adventure and surprise.
one swing after another swing,
nothing knowing what it may bring.

over the horizon near the sun
placing light so fair and so young.
her bare feet in the breezy midair
not a feeling of fear, not even a care.

buildings so sturdy and tall
could not touch an inch of her at all.
she looked out to her dreams and hopes
knowing God was holding the ropes.

All I seem to get
is to be denied
when I thought
it was mine.

All my time
and effort
just turned into
pain and hurt.

I just want to go
and succeed
but I feel I have to
beg and plead.

Every time I try,
it doesn't go my way.
I just have to keep waiting
every single day.

Rising from the water
like a fragrant cupcake.
Seeds floating in the stream
increasing from the wake.

Blue and purple
blooms onto to the pads.
Roaming and roaming
across ripples in scads.

Growth so pretty
and basin so new.
Lily so delicate
and purely blue.

You lift me up
when I am down.
I call Your name
when I am bound.
and I need Your love
when I am on the ground.

I'm on my knees
crying every night.
You grab my face
and tell me it's all right.
I call Your name
with all my might.

In Your presence
I am found.
You knight me queen
with a golden crown.
I am infinitely Yours
forever and now.

You may have hurt me
but I will still love you.
It may impede,
but I will get through.

Not a day goes by
I don't think of you.
At the time,
I didn't know what to do.

I hope you think of me
every so often.
I hope you are doing well
and your life blossoms.

She lay in bed asleep
until morning came.
She woke up
just the same.

She got dressed
in her favorite red shirt.
She ran downstairs
also in her favorite blue skirt.

She said a pleasant hello
to her father and mother
She ate her cereal
next to her brother.

Enjoying her bowl,
she soon felt a bit of pain.
Just a bit to her arm.
Then she felt it again.

She turned to her brother
in an annoyed soft of way.
"What are you pinching me for?"
"It's St.Patrick's Day."

She rolled her eyes.
"I shouldn't give you a pinch"
"Why is that?"
"Because you are the Grinch."
