Encouraging Dariel Walker


Encouraging Dariel Walker

 

Stay encouraged, cousin Dariel

I know, sometimes you want to stay in bed

But, I want to let you know that there’ll

Be better days ahead

 

Keep remembering all the time

Your little angels are looking down own you

That is why I’m writing this rhyme

Because they are going to pull you through

 

Although you had a tragic lost

And it seem so very wrong

I encourage you at every cost

To keep on being strong

 

Although you’ll have some sleepless nights

I encourage to keep believing

Keep on believing with all your might

Because the enemy is so deceiving

 

Although the sadness won’t go away

You will find that in a while

You will feel better day by day

And their memories will make you smile

 

I want to encourage you, my dear cousin

Because your lost was such a shocker

That is why I’m having this discussion

Mr. Dariel Walker

 

I encourage you to hold your head up high

And dry the tears off of your face

And every time you start to cry

Remember that they’re in a better place

 

I encourage you not to be despaired

Because I know you heard the rumor

God is taking very good care

Of Miakayla and Dariel Jr

Greetings: I am a nurse and a mother of five with four grandchildren. I have been writing poetry for several years. I am not a professional, but I believe that that is because my work has just never made it into the right hands. However, I guarantee that anyone who read my poetry will enjoy my work. I am currently working on my second book of spiritual poetry, which has not yet been published. My first book of spiritual poetry has been published, as well as a children's book, 'No Bubble Bath for Desmond.' I am very excited to reach out to the world even further with my writing.
