“Raise Me Up That I May Not Fall Back”
Thanks Rui Vale de Sousa and dollarphotoclub.

Gripping fear paralyzes

Tentatively raised hands

Searching for Your heaven

Raise me above this journey

Will not fall backwards for sure

Let me quickly soar far and long

Till I reach the ultimate purpose

Of this Earthly school house

And finally at peace

I may rest.

I have been writing all my life but for the most part, it has been a secret. My parents did not believe writing was a good way to earn money so I hid my poems. Then one day, I wanted to comment on an essay that a friend had written and found myself with a blog. That quiet whisper inside said, "You can write your poetry and no one will ever know.". I knew nothing of followers and the like at that time. So, here I am trying to learn my craft and enjoying every moment of it. My personal details are, I'm 57, married for 39 years, have one grown son who is God's gift to us and last but not least at all, I'm a Baha'i which basically means that I love all humanity.
