Poem

When all is said and done,  I wish to walk towards the Son.  Holding fast to the cross,  Kneeling at his feet. Dancing for his glory. Singing all his praise. I want to tell all these kingdoms, about great news you are. Share a glimpse of heaven and  Share the love from all above.

We go back to school, or college, or Uni, if we have families they do the same and if we have none we can go back to places as there are no longer school, college or uni students hanging around. Its been 10 years this September since 9/11. Its the month of international talk like a pirate day.
