The Day My Father Died by Carol Eliassen

I wrote this right after my Dad died when I was fifteen. I even turned it into my 9th grade English class as an assignment. There was a lot more to it but this is all I remember.

The day my Father died

I knew not what to do

It came and rained

The pain was vain

I knew the sadness too.

I looked upon his bed

And grew afraid to see his face

Or touch his hand as he did lay.

I loved this man you see

But I hid this love from thine beloved

I didn’t know how to show

Because I didn’t know he would go.

A Child of God

I believe yet I'm not perfect. I know, yet I'm not the most knowlegable I care yet I'm not the most compassionate I am yet I don't truly know myself I love yet don't always feel loved I reach out but can never totally grasp I explore yet don't feel I'm moving forward But, when I pray, I move mountains!

What About You?

What About You? You may have free will, that is true. Picking your path without a clue. You look to your own device knowing you will only gain the world. I can't emphasize enough that in the end it will fade like a mural. Your eyes are closed as the world draws you in. I can pray for you, but without God my words just melt in the wind. You sow what you reap. We all do, be it for good or evil. The difference you may ask is not what equals. The difference is God, the rapture is true, we shall ascend, but what about you? There is a slim chance on a tribulation date, you will have to sacrifice your body on God's holy slate. You can ask him to save your soul in a world filled with fool's gold. Your reward will be to enter the gates made of pearls but void of hate! Eternity is my goal. I want to take you as I go. Don't hesitate...
