The storm water pipe gaped into open air from an embankment where it surfaced from underground. The opening was a little smaller than my childhood height and they said it stretched a mile or more but nobody knew for sure.

The world is bleeding, from the inside out, with a punctured heart ready to burst. Call Universal O- blood donors. They may be able to save the most first. A rain of tears cleanses streets from the red- stained, dripping sheet-shrouds oozing children's blood. While flesh is shredded from human bone by- natural forces of wind, earth, and flood. The world lies,...

When the darkness colors the midnight skies And all your blessings seem in the past, you surmise The ache of heart who knows nothing but lies Listen to the story of His glory – He never dies When the worries grow harder and you feel defeated And all your heartfelt yearnings are uncompleted The heavy hand of doubt causes you to...

Upon the waves where the wild winds sing, A tale unfolds of a vessel and its wing; Through the tide, it dances, graceful and free, Harnessing the ocean's heart, a sight to see. With cargo holds filled, treasures abound, From the Pacfic to the Atlantic, dreams resound. A bill...
