    About this ebook

    Every morning when I wake up, before my feet touch the floor, I am so grateful for who I am and for the simple things I have. I give thanks unto God.

    This is not a poetry book about religion. It is a series of poems with pictures telling a story about living life in a world that has become so busy that we forget to slow down, take time to think about the what-ifs and the many possibilities that can or will happen if we take time out to render gratitude or thankfulness in the midst of experiencing joy and sorrow, hope and peace.

    My inspiration to write these poems is based on how busy we have become in our daily routine. We are so busy; oftentimes, we forget to take time out of our busy hours and think about the simple things in life and how amazing our lives are or how amazing our lives can be if we slow down, breathe, and think.

    From the imagination of the writer, the intent is to inspire, encourage, and comfort. Enjoy the story of each poem as told by the writer. I hope my readers find inspiration in the words I have written so they, too, can be inspired to slow down, breathe, and think.

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
