my faith trusts the Holy Spirit
strengthened to conquer trials
subduing torments of guilt midst pardon bliss 
toward triumphant eternity...
Indeed, I can move...

enjoys the air it breathes.' 
To live means to be aware 
and take time to see and care. 
To live is to apprehend and forgive.
To live means to share,

Detaching myself from past experiences' dilemma
determined heart of mine denounces deceit-dominance
dauntless to soar despite distractions…

I’ll take this sharp blade
and let it slowly slide down
If you promise it’ll make
a smile from your frown

Let’s seek God* Who compassionately blesses  
As we show good works’ practices
While clinging to His promises

He could see her highly strung face
Behind the cloaked veil
A face taught to behold beautiful turbulent.

While death becomes birth’s ally and...

It wasn’t so long ago
I lost my heart to a man I didn’t know
Now I’m heading home
With five little ones in tow

Now I’ve hit my fifties
What a relief
Looking back on the years gone by
Life has not been all that kind, I cannot lie

But the little...
