Freedom

I watch them fight,
taking a stand,
all they want,
is a free land.

Keeping them quiet,
a country in chains,
these young people,
have freedom to gain.

So much to think about in this poem. You asked about getting a copy of On Butterfly Wings. If you didn't preorder one, the information in Sharon Weimer's latest blog posted here from Crystal. You'll love it! Karen

The old U.S. of A. is still a beacon in the dark. Most countries don't really hate us they are only envious of the lifestyle we have, and don't know how to obtain it. We all need to pray that God shows them the road to freedom through our Savior Jesus Christ. God Bless you Christy know you are always in our prayers. Ron
