As a little girl growing up I have always liked writing. To date I have not published a book but that is my dream. I wanted to make it a reality before my parents passed away but that didn't happen but I still want to make that personal dream of mine if not for any other reason but to be able to pass something special on to my grandsons after I am gone.I did have one of my poems published in a book and also one in a local newspaper.
Dear God Above
Bless the children that need your love
Bless the lives that are about to end
Caused by a stranger, relative, or even a friend
...
You look up towards the sky above
To beg God to give you back the one that you love
You try but just can't understand why
It was your loved one that had to die

Abraham Lincoln was born on 2-12-1809 in the state of Kentucky
He would become an effective and resourceful attorney
He worked as a salesclerk in a store
He steered the Union to win the Civil war
...
He was only 18 and thought he could drive
Because he was speeding he's no longer alive
Mom and dad no longer have their son
All because a thug was packing a gun
...
Mark and Tom were cops as well as brothers
Their sons often spent the night with each other
Chris was Mark's five-year-old son
When daddy had to work Chris loved to ride along
