    About this ebook

    When the dark veil of expiration removes one who was here and nowto there and foreverspoken words may not be sufficient. Herein is a personal collection of original elegies, poems, stories, and vignettes never before published, along with applicable Bible passages. These are designed to provide lighting of imagery, which will illuminate shared events from a gallery of misty memories, offering a sense of sweetness to a time of sadness. During the bereavement process, occasions of questioning, anger, and helplessness may plague a lonely individual. The composition of this compilation provides answers to difficult questions, and offers hope, not only short-term, but eternal-term as well.

      The River Of Life

      Mar 8, 2024

      I love standing on a bridge, staring into the fast-moving waters of a river, on their way to the sea from their source in distant hills. The length of a river is like the span of a human life. Some lives are long, but others, sadly, can be much short
