I have writeen literally one or two poems in myife and they're not half bad and I wish to get into it a little bit more. How did you get strated and how do you find inspiration. I heard that you have to have constant raging emotions to get the best of the best, is this true?

We usually gets inspiration from our loved ones/special someone/family, but sometimes we get disappointed and so we will look for another one. Until, we find ourselves still longing for something/someone to inspire us. There are times we thought we already found one, never knowing that the searching will not end until we realize within us that the empty space in our hearts is the throne of God. If we never see ourselves as a sinner and haven't accepted Jesus yet as our Savior then we will never stop longing for an inspiration. Its because God is our true inspiration, so lets ask God to sit at the throne of n our hearts and sooner you will understand and feel the difference. This song was written based on my experience: HE found me at the lowest point of my life. I got lost spiritually, I started to doubt HIM and stopped going to church for a while but God called me and brought me back to HIM/ to the right church that encourages me to read the Bible (God's words) and leads me to have a deeper relationship with HIM. But when God started using me in church, the Enemy wanted to pull me down. I asked God to take back HIS throne and be my King once again. All the joy and peace of mind which the Enemy stole from me, HE gave it back to me again. Truly, God is faithful and true to all HIS promises, "I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU." SONG: BE MY KING All my life, i have been searching, For the great part of my heart is missing And so one day, You found me Lord You opened up my heart And so I ask You to be my King But through the years of serving You The Enemy tries to dethrone You And so one day, I ask you Lord To take back Your throne, Take back Your throne once again And be my King, and be my King.... RISE UP, MY CHILD O my dear child, I've always been there at your side Although sometimes you feel I am leaving you alone Whenever your strength fails and nothing seems to work out right But still you find yourself facing another day That's no longer your strength, my child The unusual strength you feel day by day Where do you think it comes from? I, the Lord Your God, supplies everything you need I give you strength whenever your strength fails I make a way for you when there seems to be no way I shine up the moon when there seems to be no more sun to shine I form beautiful clouds to remind you that I AM only here I put a rainbow in the sky to remind you of MY promises

I have written different kinds of poems. I collect new age stories, I often find inspiration in those stories, and sometimes I turn the stories into poems. I also find inspiration in old fairytales, and some time ago I wrote a poem based on a Chinese fairytale. I often write poems about my own life, and sometimes I express my feelings and thoughts by writing about animals etc. One of my poems is about a bird that isn't able to fly, and that poem describes some feelings from my own life.
