I have written several books of poems over many years....My poems are written for Friends/Loved ones, even Strangers, regarding Death/Birth/Marriage/Divorce....Poems about Politics/Government....Poems of Thankfulness/ of feeling Blessed.....some are my poems expressing my opinion and perception of Life and things that have happened in our lives...Many people/friends that I have met on my journey, from my first step until now Throughout this book you will see "Thank You" inserts, dedications to so many, also a few comments from some I had met who also traveled a hard road, but kept their Faith.....So many lives that were changed forever.....They ALL had a Dream/a Goal, and they reached that Goal and fulfilled their Dream Yes, the Journey has been hard and long, but I would never depart From the Memories of those I met and have touched my heart......So, as I walked back down Memory Lane, I remembered it was the turning point in my life, Nothing would I change I wanted to instill the Memory of each and every one of my friends/family who encouraged me, putting them in my book....There are too many to mention by name, but know that as I wrote this book, I was remembering each of you....I thank God for having put you in my life.....I am a better person because of you....Thank You, I will NEVER forget you Many books of Poetry I have now wrote Because I listened to God when He spoke Writing was a Therapy for me in many ways Thank You God for giving to me, these memorable days God, You know my future, it was already planned You walked with me, never letting go of my hand Many of those who You sent to me on My Life's Way Are still with me, in my heart and memory every day Thank You God for all that You have done It is because of You, family, friends, I made it, I did overcome
