Stephanie Pinion Poem
Sometimes my mind ponders, and I sit in wonder, why does God love me?
Because getting along with me can't be easy.
But thankfully He's faithful, nothing I can do to change Him.
Unconditional, He fills my cup to the rim.
There are days like today that I need a refilling, and I know that my God is forever
willing.
I can gain the world but lose my soul, I'd much rather stay complete and whole.
Because friendships come and fade away, but I know my God is here to stay.

Stephanie Pinion Poem
I never knew you, but I have your blood.
Sometimes I wonder, how I'm like you, if it's more ways than one.
And I think to myself, what life would've been like, if you'd kept my mom.
From what I've heard, you were very young, only a couple years older than I am now.
And you made a mistake, but yet, God used it somehow.
So I owe you so much, and still, nothing at all.
And if you hadn't given away my mom, I may not have been here.
So thank you, for choosing life over death.
But God made sure she didn't get left.

Stephanie Pinion Poem
Her world, her life is falling apart.
Oh, Lord, please mend her breaking heart.
Fix her up, refill her cup. Show her it's not over, that You're always there above her.
Draw her close, wipe her tears, show her Your love and chase away her fears.
The enemy tells her there's no hope to be found, he tells her that nothing's
changing everytime she looks around.
She's struggling thru sorrows, wondering about tomorrow.
But don't let her fear strangle her faith, help her to know that you are in this place.
She's so faithful, even though everything's so painful.
Lord, help her to know that You're still there, and You hear her every prayer.
She's such a beautiful person, especially in Your eyes.
Show her after the darkness comes light.
Amen

Stephanie Pinion Poem
Once a peaceful quiet land, it's really more than I can stand. They took the
animals from the ark, all to turn their homes into an industrial park! They shoved
down trees and yanked out bushes, they killed the grass and all the brushes.
They ran out foxes and scared away squirrels, and knocked down nests of the
cheerful whippoorwills. This didn't bother town board, oh no indeed.
Especially not Mayor Allen Mcsneed. He's the one suggested that the forest
be "detreed". The townsfolk didn't notice, the first couple months. Just "quiet
and peaceful" like it should, with no droppings on the peoples' car hoods.
Then one day, 'Ol Joe Hudson marched up to town hall, "I miss the squirrels
and the whippoorwills' call!" He started a petition, and walked thru town, "Join my
expotition!" He'd call out up and down. People joined in, all on their own,
even held meetings in each others' home. "Stop the industrial park!" they'd
cry, "Save the animals before they die!" Mayor Mcsneed didn't like this at all, he
planned to have the park completed this fall. "Alright," he said, tired of
people in his face "let's me an' 'Ol Joe do a foot race." So it was decided, 'Ol Joe
and Mcsneed, neither one excited. It was like this, Joe won, the forest stayed,
Mcsneed won, it was their bad day. The race was square, it "Started right 'ere an'
ended right there" The race was run, thankfully, 'Ol Joe won. After the race 'Ol
Joe
spoke, and such is the story of that forest, "Glad Oaks".

Stephanie Pinion Poem
A ball of fluff, she plays with stuff.
So cuddly and cute, I love her always.
Sometimes I just want to take her in my arms and never let her go.
Others times I want to hurt her, because she slaps me on my toes.
She loves to play, with her spider toy.
I love playing with her, she's such a joy.
We've had her for about two years.
And when I'm sad, she purrs and tries to dry my tears.
So as you can see, I love my kitty.
Because she's an all American Bearbie

Stephanie Pinion Poem
Jonah, Jonah, for awhile alonah. Didn't listen so you run, but God made you
git'r'done. To go to Nineveh, you said "nu uh". So away to Tarshish you set
sail, only to make the sailors bail, "Throw me over" you cried. "Do it unless you
want to die". They listened to what you said, and tossed you out on your
head. But God had other plans for you, so not just overboard, swallowed too. So
forty days and forty nights, you prayed to God to do what's right. So finally on
Asiriah's shores, a second chance was granted your's. On to Nineveh! You
persisted, to change the hearts of people who were twisted. So into Nineveh you
went, oh, what a glorious event. So you told the bad people,"To do the things
you do is illegal." So they repented and wore sackcloth, but you still expected fire
and brimstone. God gave you a weed, but killed it in the night. But I sure hope
now your eyes see right. THE END.

Stephanie Pinion Poem
I sing, for the King.
He gave me my gifts, my soul he uplifts.
Amazing love, from above.
You're the one I adore, without You I am so poor.
Now I'm awake, these chains I let You break.
I sing a million songs, to You alone they belong.
Each one to praise You, glorify You, for You brought me out of death's bayou.
Everyday You bless me, in new clothes You dress me.
I was so dry, the dust blinded my eyes.
But You always fill me up, You overflow my cup.
Your music floods my heart, I know I'm somehow set apart.
My fingers may blister, my throat may lose it's voice, but, even so, in my
hardships I rejoice.
Satan tried to trick me, with his sorrow pricked me.
I fell into a funk, but now I don't listen to that punk.
Release Your love, there are some who need it I know of.
Let them know that You care, that You are listening to their prayers.
A million prayers and counting, there are no boundaries.
Everyone belongs to You, show us Your will to do.
We're all in Your hands, to You no one's bland.
People think You've forgotten, they are hitting rock-bottom.
There's no way out but up, we come to You with our hands up.
A million people, in the end, we turn to Your steeples.
A million.

Stephanie Pinion Poem
I have a question, are friends truly for real?
When I need them, they're not here.
So what's the deal?
Why is it that I always attract the flakes?
Am I not worthy of friendship?
Only worthy of being forsaken?
At least, here and now, I've acquired something true.
Some real friends who don't care, what I look like or do.
But people I've known for what? Eight years or more?
Have decided that I'm not important and walked out my door.
Oh well, what's done is done.
And when life is over, my battles have been won.
So instead of dwelling in the valleys of despair,
I'll hang in the shadows of my Jesus.
Without a care.
Because without a doubt, he's a friend for life.
And so I know he's always mine.

Stephanie Pinion Poem
Wondering what I am, convincing myself I'm not crazy.
Looking for the remainder of personality, looking to find the reason I am me.
I don't know what I was before, I think that I have closed the doors.
Trying to find what I've left behind, searching myself, purging myself for the truth
that is mine. Why is this barrier still rising above me? Starting to get where I
can't see. It's so dark in my soul, I'm smothering in it.
Dragged down by opinions, I'm trying to stay away from the dark dominions.
Always night, searching for light. Looking for the one who is right.
But I'm drowning.

Stephanie Pinion Poem
My fingers on the strings, Pressing on the frets. My mind gets off of other things
and I forget my bets. I strum a chord and think to myself, could I ask for anything
more? Than to sit to myself, my worries on the shelf, to not think of anything
else. My guitar in hand, I strike up the band, I sing my song. I think it won't be
long, before I belong to something better than this. I'm snapped from my
thought, I listen intently, I strum again gently, that doesn't sound like it ought. I
suddenly drift back into my thought, I picture you here, calling me dear. Telling
me it's not the end of the world, just because I missed one chord.
