I see them in the nursing homes, sitting all alone. Wondering where their loved ones are, wishing they were home. They reminisce of days gone by, in the past they flee. I can't help but stop and think, what if it was me? Sleeping in the elements, circumstances change. They never thought they'd see the … Continue reading What If It Was Me

Your Sovereignty
The lightening flashes in the sky, Your power seen so clear. A gentle breeze upon my cheek, to dry a falling tear. Vibrant colors of the sunset, a new canvas every day.

Obituaries everywhere, another life is lost. Go Fund Me's raising money, helping families with their costs. Scroll a little further, finally good news. … Continue reading Scrolling News
