Each night as Kaylee goes to sleep
We sit together on the bed and pray
Holding hands she looks up at us
And listens to us while we say;
“Thankyou Lord for the day you gave
For keeping us safe and making us brave
Please keep Kaylee safe, we pray that you might
Wake Daddy or Mummy if she needs us tonight.”
She may not understand the words we speak
Though she is watching us when we pray
I have heard it said, “Faith can’t be taught,
It is just something that is caught along the way.”

About me
I have been dabbling in writing for nearly 15 years now in various genres including short stories, longer stories/short novels, poetry, prose and song lyrics.
I love putting some of myself into my characters whether it be personality traits, my beliefs or my ideals. What fascinates me is that as time goes on and you age you look back and notice how your stories from when you first began writing seem so immature and totally cliched, and that you would re-write a totally different story if you could. I suppose that is because when you put yourself into a story, that is where you are at that point in your life. Over the years you grow and change and so your stories grow with you.
I like writing with themes that span Christian, Country, Western, thrillers, soft supernatural, redemptive ideals and a little sci-fi.
