Poetry Month
Each day that I live is another day that I see
The power of this gift God has given to me
A way to put words of wisdom into rhyme
And give life to words that inspire for a lifetime!
May represents...
Mother's Day!
God knew what He was doing when He reached from above,
And sent down the wonderful gift of a mother's love.
With acceptance so unconditional and encouragement so rare,
Even when she's not with you, her presence is always there!

And Memorial Day...
To those who fought with honor and paid the ultimate price
To those who believed that freedom was worth the sacrifice
A special day is set aside to remember all that you have done.
And give tribute to your journey and the race that you have run.
