Poems

Poems. We hear about them in English class, we hear them read in clubs and sound all weird and don't rhyme sometimes. But what is poetry? Well, I for one know why I write my poetry.

This section is the main reason I even started this website. Most of these poems are my frail attempt to explain events going on with my life, most of them pertaining to God, spiritual matters, or just getting my thoughts onto paper. They vary from things I need to do, things I have done, or just my feeble attempts to explain how great and awesome God is.

I hope anyone who reads any of these poems, that it will be thought-provoking and inspiring. I feel greatly in my heart that if can help at least one person through my poetry, either by identifying with them, encouraging, or helping them in any way the smallest bit, I have reached my goal. I hope maybe in some small way, these poems can be my way of saying, "Thank you, Jesus." Because He has given me so much, and really I've done nothing close to repay Him for what He has done for me. Enjoy!
