Heartfelt Poems
I wrote these poems to express my feelings. However, they soon became an emotional journey of enlightenment that helped me discover myself and how I saw life. Through my poetry I wanted to show how we can help others and also appreciate those who help us and those whose love we share.My biggest inspiration was the love of my family and God and a desire to show that by acts of kindness and love we can help to improve other people’s lives by following God’s simple way of living, something I only recently discovered and which transformed the way I see life.Love is………Love is when you shareOne heartOne soulOne mindIt is a promise of a loving kindThe kind that lets them all run freeTo find their dreams and libertyAnd while pursuing all of thisA seal is made with a kiss
