REFLECTION COMES TO US ALL….
My pen seemed to be moving across the scrap paper of its own accord. Propped up in the hospital bed, I was reflecting on the last night’s terror. I was recovering from a trauma injury. Massive amounts of medication, more than my small stature could tolerate, had caused hallucinations.
The verse flowed from my pen effortlessly. I continued writing verse for the next several weeks during endless days and nights in my husband’s big recliner.
The result was three booklets of verse titled Writing for the Kingdom: Poetry for Daily Reflection, Praise and Glory, and The Spirit of Truth.
Whether they be from the trauma I suffered, or Heaven-sent, you the Reader, be the judge. You may read about the accident in my memoir, Lima Beans for Breakfast.
