"Poetry speaks to the soul." Here is a poem from the book: Alaska Best memory, Seeing the sun come up at 2am Just after it had gone down Over the horizon A faint glow of orange over the mountains Seeing the ice break off the glacier with a loud crash That sounded like thunder And exploring the rain forests of the Alaskan summer The damp, mossy floor of the forest That felt like more like a trampoline then the earth The beauty of the many shades of green in the trees The rugged outdoors The hike almost to the top of a mountain Along a water fall The grand views from the tops of the mountains Embracing the adventure of Alaska Being alive to see it and discover it Thank you God For letting me see this.
Author Biography
I was raised in Orange County, CA from 0 to 9. I then moved to Nebraska for 5 years, and then back to Orange County. I currently live in Midland, Texas. I went to Tustin High School in Tustin, CA. For college I went to Biola University in L.A. I have a B.A. in English with a minor in Bible. At Biola I was a member of the Torrey Honors Institute all four years, which is a great books program. I played basketball and was in choir from 4th grade through college. I really, really love animals. I have a beautiful 6 month old daughter named Serenity, and a wonderful Christian husband named Ben. I love the outdoors and I very much miss living by a beach. I have been to India, Taiwan and Mexico on mission's trips. I visited Sydney, Australia recently and got to fulfill my lifelong dream of snorkeling in the Great Barrier Reef. I was raised in the church. I have been a hard core, on fire for God, Christian since I was 14. Singing the song "Shout to the Lord" in church was what made the light bulb go on for me, and what made me transition from a head faith in God to a heart faith. I love to sing and I absolutely love Hillsong worship music.: )
