Creature Collection

The creature of love.
The creature of doubts.
The creature of fears.
The creature of anger.
The creature of untold secrets.

These creatures compel me,
They compel me in many ways.
They decide the choices, the actions,
And the thoughts in everyday life.

My love for my poems is like the
love god has for his children.
I expect my poems to please me and,
Their readers. 
I hope and pray my poems
Teach that hope is still alive,
And out there.

As I bring my first collection of 
beauties to a end,
I bring new babies
Into the picture.

May my new collections of Joy,
 And Dedication
Compel you!
