NOT TO FAR AWAY

Not To Far Away

I loved the soft sound of the wave's and
The mist of the midnight air on Pismo Beach,
This is where I go when I feel I am all alone and
Far away from home ,

I swallow up all my pains of long ago when I left
From a place I thought was my home ,
But I was so wrong ;

I had always loved the daisy-covered ground,
The cloud-bed applied sky.
And not too far away was the farm of cow's and
The little chickens making their sounds ,

Texas was my old stomping place where I had
To learn many heartbreaks , And I always prayed
For rain to come and wash out all my heartaches
That came my way ,

The storm appeared when I moved away
To California to live out my better day's
The very voice of Jehovah touched my heart and
Let me Know he was with me where ever I go ,
That I was not far away from home .

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
