These poems started out as gifts to friends and family on special occasions and to recall fun times of bygone days. Spending some time in this world brings back memories of joy and sorrow, and reminds us all to live out Jesus love.

Download or read book Poems for Father written by Connie Kerbs and published by Pebbled Lane Books. This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of classic and contemporary stories and poems dedicated to that variable, elusive, albeit universal theme of fatherhood. After all, we all have a father who has profoundly impacted us - either by absence or devotion. Some fathers even manage to do both. Many have experienced the other side of the coin by being a father. The versus will recall for any fathers reading, the tender feelings fathers get to enjoy, and tuck away in their heart, fueling the lifelong bond between father and child - such as when their child prods them with innocent, irresistible, curiosity, or enchants them as only a swaddling babe can do. These moments move some fathers to a delightful outpouring, such as Wordsworth, whose poetry on the subject resonates these experiences with a powerful poignancy - even today.

Xiomara Batista feels unheard and unable to hide in her Harlem neighborhood. Ever since her body grew into curves, she has learned to let her fists and her fierceness do the talking. But Xiomara has plenty she wants to say, and she pours all her frustration and passion onto the pages of a leather notebook, reciting the words to herself like prayers—especially after she catches feelings for a boy in her bio class named Aman, who her family can never know about. With Mami’s determination to force her daughter to obey the laws of the church, Xiomara understands that her thoughts are best kept to herself. So when she is invited to join her school’s slam poetry club, she doesn’t know how she could ever attend without her mami finding out. But she still can’t stop thinking about performing her poems. Because in the face of a world that may not want to hear her, Xiomara refuses to be silent. “Crackles with energy and snaps with authenticity and voice.” —Justina Ireland, author of Dread Nation “An incredibly potent debut.” —Jason Reynolds, author of the National Book Award Finalist Ghost “Acevedo has amplified the voices of girls en el barrio who are equal parts goddess, saint, warrior, and hero.” —Ibi Zoboi, author of American Street This young adult novel, a selection of the Schomburg Center's Black Liberation Reading List, is an excellent choice for accelerated tween readers in grades 6 to 8.

The writings are my connection with God and His connection, through me, to others. By sharing my personal experiences through my writing, I am hoping that others will know that they are not alone in their feelings and struggles and that God is always there to get them through anything.
