Some of our most popular poems are craftily transformed via "The Life Writing Podcast".
Each day can bring new joy,
Like a kid opening a new toy,
Each day can bring sorrow,
Which makes us not look towards tomorrow,
We have to be strong and sure,
That God has the cure,
So don't look at the past and be sad,
Reflect and be glad,
Glad of each and every day provided,
Glad that God has guided,
Things may not be as you wanted,
And God may seem like an opponent,
Be assured he is not my friend,
He is refreshing as the tropical wind,
Take with you these words of wisdom,
God is leading you to his kingdom.

Cold, not sure which way is home.
Walking, hopefully in the right direction.
Worried, we’re not alone.
Smiling, friends are coming to save us.
Relaxed, the back seat is warm and safe.
Hoping, never going to have to do this again.

She endured the unthinkable!
How can she go on?
She knew she could overcome the unfathomable.
But she decided to move on!
She’s planning to guide others through their darkness.
Helping them to move on!
She finally realized her hands are luminated like an empress,
Moving her closer to her throne.
The strength she exudes will strike a chord with her people.
It’s stronger than she could ever think or fathom,
Perhaps, she really is chosen to bring forth, the rest of them.
