“On This Day”~A Christmas Poem
On this day We remember the poor. We open the doors Of our homes and hearts To let loved ones in. On this day We give more than we receive. We open our hands And stretch our faith, Helping our fellow neighbor. On this day We put our differences aside. We open our minds To the freedom of forgiveness And the gift of grace. Let this day Last longer than just a meal. Let this day Become our anthem. As we sing of the King Who made Himself small, To give us new life On this day– And for all eternity.

Hoodies and Hope
I remember being wrapped up In an over-sized hoodie Folding in on myself, As I ignored God’s quiet whisper To come home. Now here I am Staring at the hazy walls of the hospital As I wait for news. The sun is setting and The humidity is like a curtain. I’m trying to balance Who I was yesterday And the storms I now face. I trace the gold anchor Wrapped around my neck. Hope– That one word. I know I’ll make it through somehow. I know You’ll always love me Even when the hoodies are gone. I know You’ll never leave me Even when I run Down the hall, Looking…

Although I am not in no way as talented as Stephen King, I find that I can…
