"A Radiant Light"

As I stand on this hill, one side my

family the other a radiant light.

My legs could not move at all

I tired to move them with all of

my might.

The thoughts of my past were moving

in my mind so fast. The world was

spinning around and around, how

long would this last.

This radiant light was so beautiful, so

peaceful. While I could see my family

smiling faces the people that I really love

and adore.

At last my legs were free to move to the

left or to the right. Which way shall I

choose. My loving beautiful family or

this awesome radiant light.

"This Is My Valley"

This is my valley, the valley I seen the

birds fly with mankind. Were the fresh

air went into your lungs that brought

imagines and beauty in your mind.

This is my valley, the valley were the

green hills rolled together, one each

hill is a tree has a name made by

that golden feather.

This is my valley, the valley were the

water from the crystal pond gave you

no sickness or harm. For this was writing

down by the golden feather it was our

perious writing arm.

This is my valley, the valley were I came

from with my strength and wisdom.

The place I want to go to get peacefull

days and nights, were everyone’s soul
