Simply…
…cherish a moment…
…breathe in… an adventure.
Lift your spirits… with a walk through… my imagination.
This piece was created after I wrote Light is Given and was motivated by Wendie L Edwards, Millenial Series’ book Babylon. I felt the meaning of my poem from the heart.
Hear My Prayer, Father
Hear my prayer, Father, for I am one of thy children whose heart is in earnest.
“Keep me!”, I cry unto Him, as I climb the steep walls of repentance,
jagged in their rebuke.
The filthy river waters below me smirk and pretend in mockery. As my tears submit that I am sincere
I know thou wilt hear my sacrifice if all is well,
as I strive to give up my sins for thee.
Faith teaches me, as I reach with bloody soul still. For in my mind’s eye, Thy hand is there to heal and lift at the end.
I try to imagine your mercy, as I have hope to remember all thou hast prepared me with.
Each gift of strength was perfect, yea, in your glory and my infancy.
Over and over, every step to test and try me, and love me still.
I learned! Or, I was thrust into the lesson again. Continue reading

“…a breath of fresh air, thought provoking, and memorable…”
Carol’s expressions give human characteristics to the earth we live in. Nature takes on the ability to be compassionate, and perhaps, empathize with us. From one pleased reader:
“I can…breathe…when I read her works. A few bare her soul in the pursuit of peace. Some sketch her own struggles, and inner turmoil. Passionate pieces portray intimacy in a classic sense. Discover humor in her lighthearted, inspirational writing. Nature is often taken for granted. The renewal we accomplish when we make the time to experience the earth’s treasures, relaxation, and remembering…rejuvenates us. Her writings are a way to help heal. And they are original and unique!”

Carol’s early life varied throughout, born in Fairbanks, Alaska, raised in Arizona and California. Six of her young adult years were lived in Iceland and Italy, serving in the United States Navy.
