To my son

I have taken up writing poetry again, thanks to some inspiration from friends! Poetry has always been my release and I'm ready to get back into it. Here is a poem I wrote about where my life is now, thanks to God's will! Enjoy!

Love, E.K.

Tired and Worn

A door to a room you can’t look in
Only I hold the key
Roads I would take, races I would win
Put away the dreams I used to see

I locked that door when you were born
Plans I made were gone
Today I felt so tired and worn
My patience and smile withdrawn

So I turned the key with a grin
Admire dreams never to be
At the moment when my nerves were thin
I just wanted to feel free

Did not expect things so tired and worn
Thought a light would dawn
Shocked to find my dreams were old and torn
Not vivid pictures my mind had drawn

Discovered I was in the same skin
Only now you are the dream for me
New dreams of the life you and I begin

Desires for the past flee


Hi!

So this blog is just me. It will be made up of different things (poetry, random ramblings, verses, etc.) but it will all be centered around how God is at work in my life. It's mostly for my own sanity, everyone needs an outlet, but anyone is free to stop in and read. Any resemblence to real people is probably not a coincedence but is definitely not intended to offend!

Love, E.K.
