MY BOOK OF POEMS

Lord I Give You My Heart

My Heart I Give

I am so excited about my first book of poems. “My Heart I Give.”
This book is dedicated to my wonderful sweet Mom Barbara Rose. She has since past this past July.
My Mom was the most Christian Woman and Mother. She taught me all about to love thy neighbor as yourself. It didn’t matter what they look like or how they think. She was the true example of what Jesus taught.
She encouraged me to do what I wanted in life as long as it was the right thing to do. She always told me Jesus is watching. When she knew I was writing she told me not to quit but to keep writing; never give up.
A lot of these poems are about her and my Lord Jesus.
ALL of my profit from this book will be dedicated to the Lord. This is my ministry of Him and the work He has done in me 
Although my mom was in a lot of pain the past years before she died, she always had a smile for everyone and an encouraging word for all. Everyone became part of the family,
people I did not know. I was so proud of have her as my mom.

For you my SWEET MOM

My Mom

Dear Mom
I am so weak

I have no strength
Wrong decisions I do make
But you loved me anyway.

You taught me to do the right thing
Even when no one was looking
But you said Jesus knew.





All the tears of my life
Mom you would dry
And you loved me anyway.

You told me God Is Good
All the time, God is great.

You said, I am so loved by our glorious God
And as we have glazed at HIS beauty

And HIS promises;
I thank my Lord God

That I had you for a little while
And so precious were you.

You told me to keep my eyes on our Almighty God
And I saw the beauty of HIM.

Over the hill and over the dale there we will be
Together you and me.

One day together we shall stay.

Congrats on your book of poems. Truly wonderful and inspirational. Voted up and beautiful.I miss my mom too. I dedicated a hub to her on what would have been her 100th birthday - To Mom My Queen. As much as time passes quickly we never will forget and we will always miss our moms. I'm sure yours is still by your side and will guide you along with her new wisdom from above.

You are amazing.. You just so so amazing.. I love love love love love this Hub.. And the poem.. It was like Jesus speaking to me.. Your mum must have being an Angel.. Your mum is angel.. And her words, is like the comfort the Bible will always provide.. You must really miss her.. I do not know her, but she is the kind of mum I believe every one dreams of. Is that your book... You are a terrific, inspiring and magnificent writer.
