I have always had a talent for writing poetry since I was 12 years old. My English teacher introduced a whole new world to me then. I've been writing ever since. I owe a lot of my inspiration to God and the life I've lived. I have always tried to write poetry that inspires people. I'm a firm believer in spreading joy from all the beautiful things God has created like nature and human beings. The gift of love is another thing I enjoy writing about. For Love is truly the universal language.

Getting Away From Self
Thoughts of self-contentment come to mind,
Is it really that hard to find?
I see that others seek this through others,
Yet wouldn’t we call that self-contentment of another?
We read seek ye God first,
But is it really what we thirst?
If we seek God first then should not self-contentment be
evident?
For contentment with God and his word as a Christian would
be Prevalent.
Seek ye first! Seek ye first! We read and say!
Yet is it what we really do this day?
Can we get past ourselves and our own righteousness?
Or are we always saying, ‘No not me. It is what I do best!’
Is righteousness what we really seek?
Surely not for this would make us weak.
Weak in verse, Weak in spirit.
We must act or ‘do’ and not just hear it!
Please, let us put past ourselves, past our world, and past
our hurts.
Let us Seek first HIS Kingdom and not play in our own dirt.
