Just What I Needed

Through this collection of poems I am attempting to tell a story of life. This story is about my deep seated faith, and the reverence I have for God and his marvelous creation. In this book I am trying to underscore the virtues of redemption, hope, love, growth, truth and friendship. In my genuine effort to capture the humanity of my story, I felt compelled to address the fallibility of man so, sensitive issues like rejection, helplessness, brokenness, lying, hate and injustice had to be highlighted. This book seeks to remind us that, even with all the negativity, and the challenges of humanity, we can still see and feel the emblematic touch of God all around us. There are victories in the waiting so, we cannot lose hope. Hope safeguards one's life against despair and centers it on the endless possibilities of God. My life is a story well worth the living, because I have been blessed beyond measure. I was born in Jamaica, but I have spent the greater part of my living in southern Florida. I have been married to the same wonderful woman for thirty three years. Our lives have been sweetly enriched by our two lovely daughters and one exceptionally adorable grand daughter. I really enjoy putting my thoughts on paper, either in poems or songs. I am so inspired by the natural beauty I see all around me. I also carry a heavy burden for those who are victims of hate and injustice, advocating on their behalf will probably be the endeavor that guides my writing career.
