I chose this title because of a card I received after my twin sister Joan had passed away. We were separated in the third grade by our teacher. We went to different schools afterwards and stopped dressing alike. That's where my bitterness began. It was like losing my best friend. Upon receiving the card, "When life gives you lemons make lemonade." I knew that's what I needed to do. I wanted to end my bitterness and be better. Joan had several articles published in Gallup, New Mexico. She was able to choose some of my poems that she liked best before she passed. Through prayer and asking God blessed me to write poems. Sometimes I would wake up early in the morning and remember a certain poem that God had put in my heart and I would quickly get up and write it down, so I would not forget it. I have always enjoyed poems that rhyme. Writing poems and making them rhyme gave me much joy. Just writing about life through a poem can uplift, encourage and perhaps let you see things in a different light. Once you seek and find where your bitterness may have began you know you can overcome the problem. Trusting and having faith in God can help you discover and remove the bitterness in your life and forgiving those involved. You may also help others through a poem, a song or words to encourage and brighten their day. This can also let them know that God cares, and you can go from bitter to better. Trust God always.

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....

  • Lemonade for the Soul
    Jane Phells
    Our soul is a special part of our being and our life, and it does exist within every one of us. It is something God has given to all. Although you can’t see your soul, a situation or perhaps an act of kindness can touch your soul. To me, it’s an experience, not just a feeling. I believe something like lemonade is an example of how a small bitter fruit like a lemon can be change...
