Naomi Pierre-Canel Poem
Hell found me desirable
And all the world took a back seat.
The sun no longer creased the sky,
No flowers or trees bloomed beneath.
Oceans swelling higher, began their recede,
and life spinning on it's axis began to cease.
Clouds covered the heavens.
The stars once out of reach,
fell to the mountain tops
lighting the steps which descend to that deep
Red hot darkness, blue black at it's peak.
Not horned or menacing,
as folklore once had speak.
Hell had found me desirable
But my lord said " Come she is Heavens to keep."

Naomi Pierre-Canel Poem
I think of the years between us and
Little snippets of our journey floods my mind.
Life and all it's roads at times difficult
Allowing us the chance to change, to be remade for the
Last of all our tales shall be of our triumphs-
Ways we conquered our self doubt, our impulses
Always giving way to that better me, better you
Yet you walk these roads with a heavy heart
Soul weary and feet blistered and I say to you
Be not afraid of what s to come
Everyone is given only what he or she can bear
Yes I say to it all - the pain, our tears, the laughter
Our fears, - the joy and all these years between us
Underneath it all there lies our blessing and
Redemption in the form of this friendship
For the mistakes, the errs are not erased but" Our Father In Heaven"
Remember is the sweetest prayer
In it we find the mercy he tempers our punishment
Even as we are wrong, we are in his light
No man can take your soul, so walk
Don't run to the end of your life, when it is done, he is there.
