  • From my mind to my fingers, my story.....

    Monday, August 17, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    God works in Mysterious Ways,
    we just have to look around and find the reason why.
    For myself, I guess it was my calling.
    I never thought in a million years I would get the virus,
    that my 3 brothers and boy friend, had contracted,
    then in 2000, I am diagnosed with it.
    I knew there was a reason, but why,
    then I started towards getting the necessary treatment,
    got rid of the virus,
    met a whole new wor...

  • On my way to the  Children's Garden, I crossed a little bridge besides a wooded pond.
    It was very peaceful there. 
    As I walked through the garden I spotted some pretty little butterflie's and I started trying to get some pictures of them. I managed to catch this one atop a flower.
    This garden had many lovley flowers, but I found this one especially interesting so I took it's pi...

  • I love to go to the zoo...

    Sunday, August 23, 2009

    One of the most enjoyable day trips I love to take is to grab my digital camera
    and go to the zoo.  These pictures I took over this past weekend at the
    Point Defiance Zoo.
    Imagine my surprise when I looked at the photo and saw what I
    snapped. I just love this picture.
    Another great picture that happened by accident. I love the expression
    of the girl looking at this moon jelly fish.
    The Octopus wa...

  • Grief

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    heart cracks, not broken, just cracks
    missing those that are gone, that is all
    feelings, sneaking up are not fair
    leaking out into the day, slipping I fall
    into the gray of the thinking pain
    that washes into my chest, I fear
    there I will stand revealed ,the real me
    that the strength I pretend will disappear
    No, no think happy thoughts
    I am waiting for the healing to begin
    heart cracks, I am told mend wit...

  • HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!

    Thursday, January 1, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

     A new year is upon us
    The old has passed away
    May we ever feel God's sunshine
    As He leads us thru each day.
    The trials there were many
    The tears more than a few
    And yet He held us in His arms
    And gave us hope anew. 
    He knows of all our heartache
    He feels our every pain
    And tho we oft do fail Him
    His love it does remain.
    Let's look upon the new year
    As a blessing from our Lord
    Let&...

    Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout
    Would not take the garbage out!
    She'd scour the pots and scrape the pans,
    Candy the yams and spice the hams,
    And though her daddy would scream and shout,
    She simply would not take the garbage out.
    And so it piled up to the ceilings:
    Coffee grounds, potato peelings,
    Brown bananas, rotten peas,
    Chunks of sour cottage cheese.
    It filled the can, it covered the floor,
    It...

  • AS I GROW OLDER

    Friday, July 25, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

     
    I pray I won't end up a grouchy old lady,
    Recountng each ache and each pain
    In intricate detail, to all who will listen,
    While hoping some pity to gain.
    I pray I"ll stay kind and be helpful to others,
    While striving to put their needs first;
    And that I will share the sweet story of Jesus
    With all who now hunger and thirst.
    I pray that as years take their measure upon me
    And I grow more feeb...

  • Dark

    Friday, May 16, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    When I am in the dark, the real dark, not the scare yourself, something may be there dark, the real dark.
    When there are piercings in yourself that take your breath away that come and go like a spark.
    When the spinning wheel in my mind goes off it's spindle; and rolls ribbons of visions into a pile,
    there and there another thought not extinguished by the meds, just foggy in the trial.
    Beautiful R...

  • Dream Catcher

    Saturday, August 8, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    This past week my art therapy group worked on making dream catchers. We used instructions from a website called nativetech.org. The project though it looks intricate was actually not too dificult to pick up. We added beads in the web to symbolize the things we wanted to catch in the web.  Either the bad things we wanted to stay out of our dreams or the good things we wanted to focus our drea...
