    About this ebook

    A poetic journey through life, death, and everything in-between. Some of the pages have photos that I took, because, well, I felt like it. 

     

    "Yes child, a Phoenix burns

    Ever more as time passes

    But after to dust returns

    It rises from the ashes

    So turn to God and trust

    Take your noble stand

    When life seems unjust

    I will hold your hand"
