The poems and songs in this book were written prior to January 1, 2014. Some of these poems are humorous, some are serious. Some are about people I know and some are about people I have never known, some are about things I have seen and experiences I have had and some are about my personal feelings and emotions. The songs in this book are mostly gospel type songs that I wrote under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. A few of these songs are secular songs that I wrote many years ago. The gospel songs in this book are primarily country or bluegrass music style. It's the message in the songs that really matter regardless of the music style that's put to them.
