A motivational Speaker
An empathetic preacher
A compassionate English teacher
How about a heart and mind reacher?
Anybody who encourages you
to live life to the fullest is a Keeper
They use their words
to make people stronger not weaker
No match but a smile and kind word
that lights the fire
Reciting or writing with the intent
to encourage and to inspire
Is a voice of choice
I hope never expires
Is a pen in a hand that understands
that I hope never retires!!!
This is a controlled fire
that a fire-fighter is not needed
these words are a healing burn
that must be completed
excuse me, can you please repeat
your words took me on a retreat.

Rebecca, you always help brighten my day! I will try to be a little bit more consistent. I can not wait for school to be over now. Have so many projects, that working a job gets in the way of my passions…haha…but the bills got to get paid too! Nevertheless, I really do appreciate the support and encouragement. thank you from the bottom of my heart!
