Seen and unseen
When mothers pray
The heavens come forth to listen
Rewriting my story and owning it!
I was clearing out my "drafts" folder and realized this post was never published. Two years ago, just eight months before the release of my debut EP "The Restoration", I was given the opportunity to share the stage with two Maryland-based poets which was my first time as a paid feature.
Blind Faith;heart lessons at a rest stop
The kids look forward to our annual beach vacation all year. It's an opportunity to get away from the day-to-day pressures and routine of school, home-life and chores and simply sleep, eat and play!
